I am here for Friends

About Me

Born and raised in the middle of rail-crash country - took the train through hatfield to potters bar every day... what can I say, I live life on the edge... I'm interested in comedy, what makes it good, like Arrested Development, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and what makes it bad, like Little Britain, Two Pints of Lager, Tittybangbang, Catherine Tate, the list goes on. I like less stuff than I dislike - that's a pretty good summary of my character - but if I like you that means more kudos to you, I guess, cos you're in like 5% of the population... Good luck!Powered by AOL Video

My Interests

Writing and watching comedy, filming, singing... stuff like that I guess.

I'd like to meet:

Is this one of those things where you say "young female who's not too discerning, but far more attractive than me" or where you say "oh man, I'd totally love to meet Ricky Gervais and Larry David, and Mitch Hurwitz, creator of Arrested Development, because I'd ask them how to write funny"?Your results:
You are Batman Batman 80% Hulk 70% Superman 65% Spider-Man 60% Iron Man 60% Wonder Woman 45% Green Lantern 45% The Flash 40% Supergirl 35% Robin 32% Catwoman 30% You are a little dark, love gadgets
and have vowed to help the innocent
not suffer the pain you have endured.

My Blog

Little Britain

I was thinking about Little Britain recently, trying to contain my fury, when I realised an interesting thing (well, you be the judge of whether it's interesting or not...) With many shows, film...

The Sopranos

I didn't feel the Superman/Batman one was short enough so I'll be briefer - The Sopranos is the best TV show ever made. It really is. Watch it and feel mildly disappointed with everything else for the...

Superman/Batman

Very quick one, this, as an antidote to the 800 word Scientology one. Been reading Superman/Batman, a comic that's essesntially like a buddy movie with superheros. One of the things people love a...

Scotland, a brief summary

Up in Scotland at the moment, so I will be brief. It seems we arrived in Edinburgh at the "worst possible fucking time" (Scottish accent) according to my cousin Neil. There are neither students nor Fr...

Man...

Just... wow. Seriously, you have to read this woman's latest blog entry. Sometimes I worry that I'm a little bit arrogant. Sometimes everyone worries that they are - I imagine that Tom Cruise even has...

Fanfiction

I'm not gonna talk about results or anything - I'll leave the subject by saying I hope everyone's happy with what they got, and that if they're going anywhere they're happy with where they're going. I...

Just stuff.

Far too long without an update - the "billions" of "fans" will be "clamouring for another blog". I'm attempting to find all the old people from my primary school, which doesn't seem to be working ver...

Exeter

Congratulations to Horatio Jones and Jonathan Castle who correctly recalled that the two phrases I used to describe Exeter were from House at Pooh Corner ("criminals are a supersti...

Choir Week

Tomorrow is D-Day, choir week begins. As such I'm going to paraphrase a noteable hero, Captain Oates, and say "I'm going to Exeter. I may be some time". In other words - "I may not return". The prospe...
