I'm so relieved he's not engaging with any unserious jibes. Only dignifying reasonable questions with answers. We all need to stop being baited. I include myself in that.

zack polanski is so good and i genuinely think if the left rallies around this guy and the green party in the UK, they can easily beat back the hysteria of the reform party

Me doing stand up, probably wishing I hadn’t done my 9/11 documentary gag, Cardiff, 2009.

About to start rewatching Fargo season 4 and I’m determined to enjoy it without my memory going “this is as poor as you remember”

You can have the house and the car but I want dibs on all the nativities….

Turns out the reason the first performance of Hamlet at the Globe isn't full of time travellers is they've all picked up their 7-year-olds from their younger selves and gone to the swings instead

In all honesty I’d probably choose one of several sliding door moments from my own life but apart from that I’d probably be there at the moment Van Gogh completed Sunflowers and then buy it off him for a pint of
absinthe.

I only popped out to buy a Twix. A woman with a badly bloodshot eye and a terrifyingly real looking fur coat just asked me where I would go if I had a Time Machine.

It’s 4 o’clock. Every Sunday I make a different top 40 playlist of songs I’m enjoying at the moment. This week has everything from Alison Moyet to Ween via Johnny Cash, Chaka Khan and inevitably The Fall.

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

Veal. Though the chances of me being in a situation where veal is on the menu are fairly slim.

Fight Club. Just crap.

Rock DJ. Ugh. The sound of call centre sales managers.

Red meat - work experience in a food tech lab taking swabs in an abattoir put pay to that.

Top Gun - Honestly, Tom Cruise gives me the ick.

Mr Brightside - Shouty mindpiss.

Avocado (with or without the toast) 🤢

Event Horizon (watched it once, scared the ABSOLUTE living shit out of me)

The fucking Macarena (and the dance that goes with)

Wow. I just paid £300 to rent a posh limo, but that didn’t include the driver.

All that money and nothing to chauffeur it.

Couldn’t believe I made it to my first Masochists Anonymous meeting last night. Really had to pinch myself.

I can’t think of another artist able to leave me emotionally devastated with just a single word. The music, the sozzled bar room ballads, the junkyard waltzes etc are magnificent enough but to be able to convey whole universes of grief with a “quiet” (Martha), or a “pennies” (Fall of Troy), my god.
