Not that kind of perversity. Has it not sunk into your cereberally-challenged craniums that this blog is and remains SFW?
No, I refer instead to my malicious delight in the malice and hatred of
The obvious metaphor |
1) It's a BBC Conspiracy: the BBC are outrageously and obviously biased in favour of Liverpool/Manchester The United/Manchester In The City (I may have some of these names wrong, I don't pay that much attention). Not all three, just one - which type of conspiranoid nonsense kind of refutes itself.
Simply seething with - er - something. |
2) The Referee was biased: And the linesmen, too - though I have to say what they do is a bit unclear to me, though it involves running up and down with flags. The fabric type, not paving stones (as you may be as unfamiliar with the ballfoot game as I). Or, if not biased, both visually impaired and grossly incompetent. Some commentators claim that Manchester The United's fall from grace happened when a particular referee retired. Ah, the conspiranoid mindset at work!
Referee: less liked than Inland Revenue employees or traffic wardens |
An average ballfoot player's weekly wage |
Referee either worshipping at ballfoot shrine or using VAR |
Sponsorship deal? |
Now, motley, we're going to stick you next to F1 starting grid as the flag goes down and see it you can hop your way to safety!**

"Admiral Kuznetsov"
From ballfoot to aircraft carriers, see how Conrad deftly changes subjects. I did mention that the Ruffians were using Beluga whales equipped with cameras to snoop around underwater in their naval ports, and then threw in the above-named ship, with a touch of mockery. Art?

The embarrassing truth |
At least, that was the plan ...
Free! Free At Last!
I gloated a little early on Friday about it being my last day of dog-sitting. Thanks to a horribly complicated series of unfortunate events - hmmm, you know, that sounds like - anyway, it transpires that Wonder Wifey and Degs did not return until earlier this morning, at the relatively civilised hour of 08:45, with Tales of Trauma To Tell of Trunks (actually suitcases but I was going for alliteration).
Thus it was that I still had to get up at 05:30 to feed Edna and allow her out to do her business.
Back when both were cute |
