I'm bored of the endless hawking
of every minute detail. This is a pretty big scandal, certainly, but last week it was the Duke and Duchess's visit to Canada.

You can't get away from it. I'd like to hear about something different happening, not be constantly bombarded from all directions by analyses of all the tiny facets of this week's story.

It's *boring*

But I can't see even a single paperclip on that map.

Hey, Kroney!
The 'news' is regularly fucking dull, and every tedious little story is eked out into an EPIC SAGA because there's not enough genuinely interesting stuff to fill the nosey, boring-lifed requirements of the mongs, proles and spastics who devour it voraciously.

On the whole if you read only the headlines you have more than enough to go on. Much more, unless the contents of Cheryl Cole's kippery minge hold a morbid fascination for you.

Hope this helps x

That bin bag story is excellent though.
No explanations just a cold statments of some facts that just scream "dodgy as fuck"

'My friend must have left them in the wrong place'

It reminds me of when my brother tried to claim he was looking after some jazz mags for a friend, in about 1983.

I bet it's got fuck all to do with the phone hacking, just that he's either having an affair or he's really into midget porn.
(PsychoChomp, Tue 19 Jul 2011, 10:06, Reply)

that'd be the most excellent outcome possible
unless he's having an affair with a midget and making porn

No, the best outcome would be if the porn was of Rupert Murdoch fucking his own son
Then just as he's approaching the vinegar strokes, he signals for Rebekah Wade, who quickly plays a recording of the harrowing wailings left on Milly Downing's answerphone.

Oh, right. I take personal offence at that.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 19 Jul 2011, 10:24, Reply)

why?

(Poppet some assembly required., Tue 19 Jul 2011, 10:49, Reply)

because he believes he has the worst sense of humour.

*holds up two '10' cards*


Su-fucking-perb.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 19 Jul 2011, 10:19, Reply)

Thank you
The geek in me is also happy that two '10' cards would equal 1010, which is 10 in base 2.

but you have outdone yourself here

I would not be surprised if it came to light that Murdoch has had a Wade-assisted orgasm

I stopped looking at news websites
because I watch television and listen to the radio. All the news bulletins focus overwhelmingly on the main story. If I add news websites on top of that I'd claw my eyes out.

Unfortunately I don't have time to take a paper in the mornings otherwise I'd do that instead. Obviously by the time I get home in the evenings, I've been battered by dull, tedious dullness and no longer give the tiniest shit about the rest of the world.

There was ONE good story I read today.

This UTTER, UTTER CUNT has been sacked. I hate him with a passion - 'Egypt's Indiana Jones' is about right: a fictional knob-end with barely any connection to serious archaeology, he's ruined almost every Egypt documentary made in the last ten years with his wild sensationalist speculation dressed as 'definite fact'. Hopefully he will be executed.

A Scottish person made my day simply saying "murder" yesterday.

They flat out refused to say "burglar alarm" though.

I can't help but giggle when I hear them say murder.
