What's that got to do with him being decent, he's never been in trouble with the police and pays his tax which is more than can be said for that real cvnt Jimmy carr.

It means he's not a decent comedian, which would be the issue in question when talking about humour you testicle-muncher.

I'm sorry, but David Bowie.

I just don't see how changing your haircut a couple of times in the 70s and 80s makes you a musical genius.

Vastly, vastly overrated IMHO.

It feels like the news media today are just bending over and accepting that his new release is brilliant.

It is not. It's a dirge.

And don't get me started on him and Jagger murdering "Dancing in the Street" and then making the gayest straight video ever.

The backing track is classic Bowie, but what's with the lyrics? Does he live in Berlin or something? In any case it's just a load of gibberish and it doesn't even end properly. It just sort of stops.

That said the man's in no way overrated: How can you not be a fan of Space Oddity, Life On Mars, Oh You Pretty Things, Changes, Suffragette City, Heroes, Ashes To Ashes, Ziggy Stardust, Rebel Rebel, Man Who Sold The World. Drive In Saturday, Starman, fvcking Starman! Those are off the top of my head and I wouldn't even class myself a Bowie 'fan'. They're just objectively good songs - of which he seems to have produced a ton! I'm linking Starman because it's one of my all time favourite songs, I defy you to find fault in it:

Geek used to a slightly derogatory term. Now everybody seems to refer to themselves as 'a bit of a geek', usually just because they like to wear thick-rimmed faux glasses that they've bought from Top Shop and they've seen The Big Bang Theory. Actual geeks are now called nerds and are subject to the usual derision.

Let's just clear things up...

NOT A GEEK

ACTUAL GEEK

nerd1.jpg

Minimum entry requirement introduced for geeks

PEOPLE designating themselves as geeks will have to pass a basic exam, it has been confirmed.

Wearing oversized glasses and watching The Big Bang Theory will be replaced with a proven track record of academic overachievement and traumatic childhood bullying.

Geekologist Roy Hobbs said: “I didn’t spend six years retrieving my sputum-flecked satchel from the school roof just to be usurped by some ****nut in a Dangermouse t-shirt.

“It’s time to reclaim the word ‘geek’ as somebody with borderline autism who thinks in algebraic formulae as opposed to one of the four billion people who reckons Empire is better than Star Wars.

“They don’t even know the latter’s proper title is Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, which is abbreviated to ‘A New Hope’. Idiots.â€

After passing the £250 entrance exam with questions on eyewatering Hentai porn and the correct way to arrange Farscape action figurines in a display cabinet, successful candidates will be given a badge of geekdom.

The badge will come in one of 12 slightly different designs and the full set will only be awarded to those who sit the exam 12 times including in Na’vi, Entish and the Galach tongue from Dune.

The new guidelines will help separate the truly geeky from those who want to have sex with Alyson Hannigan or Zooey Deschanel on the basis they are extremely attractive women who occasionally pretend to be socially awkward in exchange for large sums of money.

Hobbs added: “From now on saying you think ‘science is really cool’ because you like Brian Cox won’t mean shit unless you treat your acne using homemade benzoyl peroxide.â€

Well the lyrics in Starman such as " let the children boogy, let all the children boogy " may have hidden connotations and I fully expect him to have his coller felt by the Stewart Hall investigation squad any time soon.

OMG my mate broke up with the biggest whore yesterday after about 2 months of being together and is all soppy expecting people to feel sorry for him. :ermm:

Please tell us that when comforting your mate in his time of emotional need you used the word 'whore'.

What slatternly qualities has this lady shown to make you call her that?

It was pretty common knowledge at the time plus he actually cheated on someone to get with her and he even admitted it himself when he got with her

I wouldn't call her a whore to her face as I have never met her, but it's pretty well known anyway

Cyclists who think I am in the wrong when pulling out into a gap in a long slow moving queue of cars, when they come screaming down the inside of the cars stopped to let me out. In the pitch dark with really shit lights I could barely see from a yard, dressed all in black and with no helmet on. Stupid willy puller.

As a regular cyclist I get really annoyed at twattish cyclists who give us bad names. I may not look as stylist in my ridiculously fluorescent cycling jacket but people can see me.
