the smugest little cunt i have ever seen ever in my life ever. i just want to punch his face and ram a bottle down his cock every time i see him.

I read the other version first, so it's only like 3/4 of a re-read.

gmku · 01.02.2010, 10:41 PM

Got into a re-read of The Great Gatsby on my plane ride. Must continue soon. I really got into it. Fitz was a prose expert. Sublime stuff.

I watched a documentary earlier today about a woman who attended the marriage between John and Jackie. She said John's half were trying too hard. Ever so slightly nouveau. Not that you didn't know that already.

Not being funny, but you seem to have missed out Jimmy Carr, the bloke off of points west and Jeremy 'fucktower' Kyle.

^Glice

I don't actually mind Carr all that much, although that might be because I've only watched him for maybe two minutes in my entire life, during which I quickly made the Frank Sidebottom connection and left it at that. Kyle's an obvious ommission though. I don't know what Points West is.

I'll tell you who really is a smug bastard though, whats-his-face ... the bloke who did Big Brother and now does X Factor, Dermot something. Unbearable.

Glice · 01.04.2010, 05:53 PM

Dermot O'Leary. Proper cunt he is. Points West is a local news programme.

I'm sure you don't need to hear him speak. Just look at his face. He's from Axminster but looks like he's from Taunton. What a cunt.

demonrail666 · 01.04.2010, 07:45 PM

Yeah, Dermot O'Leary, that's him. Smug as you like.

I youtubed points west and think I found the bugger, Chris Vacher, right? Yeah, even from the snippet I saw he absolutely oozed that certain kind of chatty smugness that regional newscasters seem to specialise in. We've got one in London, Alaistar Stewart. Drives me round the bend. Russia drops a nuclear bomb on America while he's going on about some steel drummers in Tooting losing their rehearsal space. It's TV gold, really.

I'm generally a big Disch fan but I agree, that one's really hard to stick with. Have you read Camp Concentration? Brilliant book.
