I want to see Tracy Van Slyke do an article about how Scooby Doo promotes drug abuse and Bugs Bunny advocates a deviant lifestyle.

because although it has a huge stable of jabbering retards churning out lovely opinion pieces on guacamole, it also does some actual journalism i really like the idea that you all think the terrible "thomas the tank engine is racist" type articles are actual headlines, though

"Sex offender admits car park thefts – including taking two whole ticket machines" "A sex offender who stole money from car park pay machines in High Wycombe over the Christmas period and twice took the whole machine has been recalled to prison after pleading guilty. Charles Bamber, 34, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty at High Wycombe Magistrates on January 14, to ten counts of theft, nine counts of criminal damage and one count of failure to comply with the notification requirements of the sex offenders register." How do you steal two whole ticket machines.

Caught the end of the local news where they were highlighting a tuna tossing competition...basically throw a fish across a field or something. Which resulted in the rather fantastic super where the winner was dubbed "Champion Tosser"

The Grauniad writers genuinely believe what they write. It is written by, and for, the Golgafrinchan 'B' Ark passengers.

Wikipedia posted:The paper's nickname The Grauniad (sometimes abbreviated as "Graun") originated with the satirical magazine Private Eye. This anagram played on The Guardian's early reputation for frequent typographical errors, including misspelling its own name as The Gaurdian.

It probably never accidentally called itself The Grauniad, but it was definitely the sort of mistake they would've made. They even own the web addresses grauniad.com and grauniad.co.uk. The thing about the Guardian is that their navel-gazing champagne socialism isn't harmful or offensive in the same way that the Mail's hypochondriac xenophobia is, not least because unlike the Mail, they never put it on the front page (they even managed to be fairly even-handed about Mrs Thatcher with their front-page feature when she died). There's not really any moral equivalence in that sense. But it's still every bit as easy to mock because it embodies so perfectly. You know, they have the whole stereotype of, "I support PR because it will produce fairer results," <2015 General Election> "I no longer support PR because I didn't realise the wrong parties would benefit from it."

Zamboni_Rodeo posted:poo poo like this is why Daniel Radcliffe is awesome. Yup. He routinely says pretty cool stuff in interviews and whatnot as well. Seems like a decent bloke. I think it's awesome that he's made gently caress off levels of money from the whole Harry Potter thing and can do whatever crazy projects that catch his fancy. I also wonder if there's a bit of contrariness to it, like, "Oh you thought it was shocking when I had my cock out in a play? Hoho, get a load of THIS!" Oh yea, and there was this a couple years ago... Sundance Stunned By Daniel Radcliffe’s Gay-Sex Scenes In “Kill Your Darlings” I don't think he gives a gently caress.

Daniel Radcliffe wore the same outfit every day he performed a stage play for several months in order to dick over paparazzi. He's pretty awesome.

For those that haven't heard this story, it's pretty great:quote:Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix star Daniel Radcliffe enjoyed annoying the paparazzi during his recent stint on the London stage - for six months he deliberately wore the same clothes when leaving the theatre so photographs would be worthless. The 17-year-old was greeted by photographers each night outside the Gielgud Theatre during his stint in controversial West End play Equus, where the teenage actor disrobed onstage every night.
