In ASDA you can get two 14-inch pizzas, a side, and a litre of coke for a tenner. This isn't clever or witty or anything, but I think everyone should be told.

This is fine, too. So much time is spent trying to recreate artisanal Italian pizza that they forget it's just going to be cooked in an oven 300°C too cool to ever match that "traditional trattoria style"

Brie is a perilous food for me. It is *so* bad for my liver but by god do I love me some brie.

This deserves much higher numbers than it currently has

Bananas are so popular as to be ubiquitous and universal. I detest them, both their taste and texture are hellish.

Sausage Party is a film I got 10 minutes into before angrily giving up. Few films have angerbored me into submission.

Walking In Memphis by Marc Cohn is the worst song ever written.

“Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you’ll never watch again, and one song you can’t stand”

Red meat - work experience in a food tech lab taking swabs in an abattoir put pay to that.

Top Gun - Honestly, Tom Cruise gives me the ick.

Mr Brightside - Shouty mindpiss.

Avocado (with or without the toast) 🤢

Event Horizon (watched it once, scared the ABSOLUTE living shit out of me)

The fucking Macarena (and the dance that goes with)

The new supposedly Instagram friendly brunch place by here is not getting great reviews, hard to understand given the photos I'm seeing of their food

Very weird looking brunch with an undercooked sausage, horrible looking potatoes, a fried egg, green and red sauce underneath and cress everywhere for some reason

Is this before or after they cooked it?

They'll also definitely need to detox

Edward Carter @dotmund.bsky.social · 5h

Yeah, that is true. Or 99% true. I always remember the 1%, that's the problem.

Let's ignore the 1%: my new political slogan

I am perfectly willing to rehome any unwanted livers anyone has. Meanwhile you've got all these dickheads telling you to only drink lemon juice and only eat millet for a week. Its enough to make me want to smoke crack.

In Brighton there's a chemtrails nutter who sets up his trestle table on busy Bank Holiday weekends. My mate likes to string him along for hours, which I regard as a public service on his part.

When I had a dog, I quickly discovered I'd unwittingly joined a social club for Other People With Dogs. A genuinely alarmingly broad cross section of society. That's when I started carrying this javelin.

If your liver works, you'll be sufficiently detoxified.

Edward Carter @dotmund.bsky.social · 6h

My particular beef is with the "detoxifiers" and colon police. There are a frightening number of people out there doing themselves more harm than good.

Edward Carter @dotmund.bsky.social · 6h

I hadn't realised this until I wasn't well. Now I remain convinced your body knows if it isn't well, and any "wellness" stuff you do beyond that is a cult.

Edward Carter @dotmund.bsky.social · 6h

People write so much shit about "wellness" that it beggars belief

Your parents should have considered there might also be someone else called Simon Pegg who would become a major TV and film star.

Heidecker's stand-up persona is the greatest comedic creation of the 21st Century. I was lucky enough to see him live in Brighton and he blew me away.
