The Portsmouth News used to have a special Sports Mail edition on Saturdays where the masthead had a sailor, but they had three versions of his face depending on whether Portsmouth had won, lost or drawn.

I Will Survive by Cake. I seem to remember Jamie Theakston agreed with me circa 1997.

“Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you’ll never watch again, and one song you can’t stand”

Sweetcorn - just minging

The Matrix - miserable and boring

We Found Love In A Hopeless Place - awful song + I heard it too many times on shit local radio at work circa 2011

Dan Pop-o-matic but spooky 👻🎃🦇 @danpopomatic.bsky.social · 2d

“Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you’ll never watch again, and one song you can’t stand”

Meat - for moral reasons

A Serbian Film - I see no reason to put myself through it again

"Hey Baby" by DJ Otzi - just the worst, lowest effort dance music exemplified

Arron Wright @nonoxcol.bsky.social · 2d

“Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you’ll never watch again, and one song you can’t stand”

Rice pudding - turned stomach since childhood

Forrest Gump - as an American History MA it makes my brain puke

Breakfast At Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something, obviously!

Aw, bless. As a Northern Irish person, I think it’s awful that England is completely divided and cunts are using flags to intimidate and threaten under the pretence of patriotism. But, hey, maybe it’s your turn?

Imagine what I’m like when I’m NOT doing Sober for October.

Absolutely fuck this racist vandalism, and the racist vandals who are doing it.

Residents say they feel 'threatened and abused' as flags line seafront road

Residents have reported feeling "intimidated" by those putting up St George's flags on a major seafront road
