Blimey. They've only gone and done it again! Andrew Lloyd Webber [actually me] and Byron Denniston [probably @showmanandydaly.bsky.social] continue their hallowed/Hallowe'en tradition of watching the SAW film franchise together. This installment: SAW 2. Come watch along! Only at cbbworld.com!

Screenshot of a now-blocked post with me replying: Jesus Christ, the fact that IT HAPPENED You're working SO HARD to make it out that I'm laughing at cancer when it's plainly obvious that I'm not! Just block me and walk away, it'll be like you were never wrong in the first place!

Morris dancers who look like weirdos, NOT like a stylish guy in the summer wearing a cream blazer with some fun piping on the lapels
