reading about this riyadh comedy festival thing. genuinely astonished that comedians, *stand up comedians*, chose a fck load of money over doing the right thing. this isn't the behaviour i have come to expect from the comedy world, a notoriously upstanding and moral industry.

the fact that people are disagreeing with me on this shows how far society has fallen. may god have mercy on us.

they need to make an example of her. she should have called the Schultheißen and waited patiently outside for them to arrive.

sorry but I just don't think a woman who makes a house out of sweets could possibly be bad. she was probably just fattening hansel up for a laugh.

i'm the person who's putting autism in Tylenol. i'm making an absolute fortune and there's nothing Starmer can do to stop me.

people think it's so great being a nepo baby, but for just one day, i would love to experience what it's like to be an untalented, feckless nobody like all of you.

the biggest gamble in this life is trying to decide what size tights to buy.

is it not kind of mad that we are all about to be destroyed because of men's inability to create fulfilling inner worlds.

it would make the slide into facism much more visually interesting if people were taking a crack at drawing a welsh dragon on everything.

the problem with having a childhood where we drank out of the garden hose is that nobody knows that it didn't do me any harm. there has to be a way to rectify this.

as a true patriot, I sleep a little sounder now all these england flags are up. I get into my union jack pjs, kiss my Toby Jugs goodnight and dream that I am riding around no mans land on the back of a huge british bulldog as the germans look on fearfully.
