People who are obsessed with a particular celebrity. Particularly musicians.... Particularly Taylor Swift

 

Genuinely nothing against her but I feel like it's impossible to like every single song your favourite singer makes... But there are definitely a shit load of people out there who will make you believe they do. Are they lying? Do they just force themselves to like songs that don't like deep down? 

None of Taylors music is complicated enough for her fans to dislike I don't think.  She / her writers are very good at pop.

So were Abba and I loved them as a kid, but still thought Super Trouper and Chiquitita were crap and still do. 😂

The TV, the music, the fashion - it all goes to make up Rio Ferdinand.

Subjective. Not a golfer myself but don't mind watching - I guess you've got to be open to watching stuff and accept some people like the opposite to you, doesn't make it w@nk either. 

 

It's massively popular from a spectator and participation point of view.

Don't play or like golf but I went to the Open in Portrush this summer. It was a very good day out and brilliant spectator sport, I guess that is why the sport gets big viewing figures.

People banging on about Matcha as it's clearly the trendy thing currently.  Tastes like you're eating soil.

Never tried it. And after reading this I don't think I ever will. Thanks for the heads up.

It's not a criticism; I listen to quite a lot of her music as I have a teenage daughter.  Some is brilliant, but even the less brilliant stuff is pretty decent.

US corporations and indeed anyone bowing down to Trump.  ABC cancelling Jimmy Kimmel because of some quite mild remarks over the Kirk shooting.  ‘Land of the free, home of the brave’ indeed.  It won’t make a blind bit of difference of course, but have now cancelled my Disney plus subscription as my protest against ABC.

And they ****ing lecture the Europeans on free speech.

Basically everyone is 'woke' in America, left and right. Very silly country that unfortunately poisons our own political and social discourse.

I wouldn't be so harsh on Disney on this. It's been suggested that Disney had to fire him or have their licence to broadcast reviewed / revoked.

 

Just like trump is pursuing a 15B dollar lawsuit against The New York Times.

 

Just like Vance told employers to sack anyone making fun of the Charlie Kirk death.

 

Just like no one is talking about the lynching of 2 black guys in Mississippi this week or the white supremecist who shot people at a school this week. Or the 2 mass shootings of homeless people just after a Fox news commentator homeless people should be killed.

 

There's a fascist take over happening in the US right now and if we're not careful it can happen here too.

 

4 people were arrested for projecting a picture of trump and Epstein on to a building. 

 

The news and current affairs programmes are basically hijacked in this country in favour of reform. Just look at news bulletina and question time etc.

Very sad, hope he finds a new home. I still watch his monologue most days after getting into it whilst living in USA and he is so witty. Wanted to get in the audience for his show during the World Cup next year, looking unlikely now.

This alongside Stephen Colbert being cancelled by the snowflakes shines a light on the current woke/cancel culture takeover of the USA. Hopefully we can profit from some of their poor decisions, unfortunately we're also getting overrun by wokey's such as Farage and Robinson.

The Vance monologue this week was totally hilarious. He is such a bad actor, he believes none of this crap. He's like that guy in the office that is in every call looking flustered and busy, but no one knows what the hell he does.
