Poor fucker snapped his tib and fib, looked horrendous. Studs caught in the turf as he was slide tackled.

Hobbesy @leonhobbes.bsky.social · 18h

Me neither. I know it’s a public forum but you can’t just bundle into any old conversation and start acting the cunt.

You’re right of course Bruce but I meant it wasn’t a marker for not being a wrong un.

Don’t ruin my point with facts.

Literature is the only A level English anyone here studies ie natives aren’t even at A level English language standard

Mrs showed me a great video on Instagram of a talking raven yesterday, lovely stuff.

Having read King Lear or Pride and Prejudice isn't really a marker for being a useful member of society lads.

Hobbesy @leonhobbes.bsky.social · 1d

I'm not sure that having a strong understanding of King Lear will be all that helpful tbh.

Who the fuck studies A level English language? No one.

Hobbesy @leonhobbes.bsky.social · 1d

Post you from a different era.

On the roof of the 6th form, last day of school before A level exams 1992. I nicked a knife from the dinner hall so we could unscrew the window latch to climb out on the floor above.

I’ve always assumed builders are like car mechanics- you bring your own tools.

Why can I not go to bed at a normal time?

The only phone numbers I know by heart anymore:

- mine
- my wife’s
- my landline number from when I first moved to LA
- my childhood home
- a Philadelphia community helpline that advertised on local TV with the jingle “CALL for ACT-ION! GREENwood SEVen five THREE one TWO!”

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.
