I went on Blue Peter with my class aged about 8.
My mum washed my blazer with my Blue Peter badge on and I was left with a white shield.
Devestated!
Was only put to rest about a year ago when @janorak.bsky.social found me a replacement and presented it to me.

You need to tell us all who he is. It’s what your dad would have wanted.

Darren Hayman @darrenhayman.bsky.social · 8h

That is a language that parents understand though, see? You threw away money!

Oh my dad got a pirate version of ROTJ from a mate a work. Absolutely unwatchable. Didn’t properly see it at a cinema until the special editions. Arsehole.

I think the ‘giving away’ of stuff is a popular mistake of parents. Monsters. All of them.

Darren Hayman @darrenhayman.bsky.social · 8h

Actually my parents were ok on this. When I first watched the young ones in front of them, they couldn’t believe I was capable of laughing so hard. They couldn’t deny me after that

It was waiting for its day. It’s day was today.

You’re the first person to reply whose parents I actually know. I’ll put a contract out on their lives.

Give me their address. I’ll right this wrong.

The example of what someone would want to see , in itself, feels AI generated. Hmmm something old and famous and something newish and famous? Marilyn Monroe and Game of Thrones? Will that do? Humans don’t think like this. Not good ones.

I mean I think the answer to ‘what do you play?’ Is always shit unless you can say, bassoon, pedal steel, dulcimer etc.

I mean, I was young and stupid. So were they. Nodding and laughing and saying ‘yeah right, cool’ probably got me through it.

Darren Hayman @darrenhayman.bsky.social · 9h

Woooaaahhh The Dead Milkmen! Let me kill your cousin, aunt and parents please.

Did you pretend you saw it, the next day at school? I did

Darren Hayman @darrenhayman.bsky.social · 9h

Absolute monsters. I will fight them.
