HILARIOUS!

This is probably a better excerpt

" Phil Collins does not wear chunky-knit sweaters and he is sick of his image as the bald and wizened millionaire gnome of Soppy Pop. He is at great pains to point out that no way is he as nice or as sensible or as ugly as people think he is. In his wilder moments, he contemplates marrying his 13-year-old cousin or spitting at Kylie and kneeing Jason in the nuts at the Brit Awards ceremony or maybe even joining Pop Will Eat Itself as a go-go dancer. Probably. Anything to bust his cosy-nice-bloke-but-a-bit-of-a-boring-bastard-who-goes-on-and-on-and-on-about-his-boring-divorce-all-the-time image."

Seriously Catherine wheel can you just keep it in one thread? We've trained fuzzy to do it, you should manage it.

Can we call it The Prophesies of Nostradumbass?

Pretty please?

Sonic Johnny · 11-05-2015, 11:12 PM

Nah we should call it "Turn off the dumb threads"

Trotskilicious · 11-09-2015, 08:16 PM

it made me cringe

The Omega Concern · 11-09-2015, 09:15 PM

any chance he was a frequent guest at Jimmy Savile parties?

It sounded like a terrible interview and had a terrible write up. Well played, 1990.

Phil collins said he's coming back from retirement after just 4 years. I remember how happy i was in 2011 when he said he was retiring. I figured it couldn't last though. Good things never do.
