You've got to admire the anti Lineker brigade's commitment to the cause, insisting that an abbreviated 20m MOTD without comms or studio punditry is THE BEST MOTD EVER 🤪

Can one of you organise a national protest to force a general election?
I would, but a bit too busy atm.

This has confused me.
Larry David breaking character from being Larry David, neurotic NY comedy Jew, to be Larry David, NY humblebragger.
“News flash! There’s more to me than just jokes!” Some lesser-known details of Larry David’s life, according to Larry David. nyer.cm/k5AJvPZ
Pretty interesting as a Gen X'er observing the generational discord between Millenials and Gen Z, on social media.
Nice to just tune out like Grandpa on The Simpsons and let them crack on.

There's too much of a sentimentality inequity here to give these to my 11 & 7yo sons, isn't there?
I'd probably have gone to war aged 7, had I got Very Special Son and not Brilliant Son.

My main take from The Beatles Get Back documentary is being surprised that John Lennon wasn't built like a 6'1 Cruiserweight.
He seemed an imposing figure of a man to me, when I geeked out on The Beatles as a teen. Quite a slight, slender looking chap, wasn't he.

Happened to me aged 7 on a holiday with my Aunt & cousins
Plan was not to poo for 7 days. Day 5, my stomach betrayed me in a warm bath just as my aunt walked in to check on me
The humiliation and futility of desperately scrambling to hide floating turds still stings today
Stayed round a GF's parents house once and was scared to poo. Had stomach ache and had a bath. Farted in the bath and it didn't end well. Yes, I shit the bath in my GF's parents house

Put a random episode of Seinfeld on for old times and the main joke was Jerry & George getting busted for perving over a 15yo's cleavage 😬
Some 27yo's might get away with playing a 17yo, but watching this high forehead dweeb, singing in front of a mirror about feeling lonely is truly excruciating

Greavsie & Boycie were both about my age now, when as a kid I'd revel in their easy London bonhomie and caustic patter.
I hadn't previously considered that brand of London geezer was becoming extinct or that I missed them.

Some beautiful Greavsie anecdotes on the radio today
Mine, not so heartwarming. A Woolwich pub, 1986, 11yo me excitedly about to receive an autograph from JG, when I'm urgently pushed out of the pub, bc my then Step Dad had pulled a knife out on someone
Oh well. RIP Greavsie

Can't wait for these Brexit Clowns to campaign for pre decimal currency and pretend how life is so much sweeter with, 240 pennies to the pound, florins, farthings and half crowns.
Great news. The Metric Martyrs case took 20 years but now we can buy goods in pounds and ounces again, not just Napoleonic measurements.
We even get the crown back on pint glasses.
Brexit is making us more British.
Just seen a new fashion development. A mawkish, awkwardly written Facebooky meme slogan emblazoned on a sweater.
'The people you love become ghosts inside of you and you keep them alive'.
This paired with boot cut jeans to be all the rage in 2022, you heard it hear first

Watching this. Les Ferdinand has just said, that had it been a black player kung fu kicking a fan in 95, he'd have been locked up.
I'd never thought of this before, but he's right, isn't he
