Parents"They fuck you up, your mum and dad" said Philip Larkin. Did he have a point? Perhaps yours are merely horrendously embarrassing? Or are you yourself that embarrassing or terrible parent? No tedious McCannery or nonce strikethroughs please, ffs.

Personally, if I had raised a son that even griped about wearing cheap school trousersto a fucking christening, let alone a baggy off the rack hundred quid wool-blend suit from Marks, I'd have killed myself long ago. I'm full of admiration for Helo Sr's incredible mental fortitude.
But then, I wore my suit jacket throughout a funeral in 25+ degrees because I felt taking it off would be unseemly. Perhaps I'm the wanker here and wearing khakis in a church is actually socially acceptable. I'm not sure, however, that's a world I want to live in.
