I may sound arrogant, but I'm not surprised I'm right. What is more annoying though, is the fact he has so go so far to look intelligent. London UK at least only used basic French - Rothwell's trying to look as if he's Jean-Pierre Aumont - instead he looks more like Dr Oetker trying to be Scottish.

I have to admit, I'm sometimes morbidly compelled to read his blog for his near-autistic stating the obvious, wildly off the mark tech analysis and hugely popular live blogging events. I don't know who this renders the more pathetic.

I went off to his blog, tempted by your talk of nonsensical witterings for a little chuckle.

I came back a changed woman, it'd be funny if he wasn't being serious.

I think it might be basic french with specially looked up words to give the illusion of knowledge. I'm not convinced by the sentence construction in the second half of it.

Come on though, you have to give him credit for this: http://crashedpips.co.uk/wordpress/2008 ... s-118-118/. One of the best liveblogs I've seen for ages. The copyright page is a laugh a minute too.

This little template, donated gratefully by Sput, can be used for almost everything he says when it's obvious he's trying on his "proletariat playing the bourgeois" act which is all the time.

Tried, is it me or is it him? Eitherway, the kid's a bizzare oddity in brazen and unaware dumbfuckery á la Tumble, beep and... uh, others, can't be arsed listing the less recent bundle. Chuckle at him if you must, I just want to give him a Glasgow Kiss with a brick.

Shit. I've been found out. I have failed the turing test.

No, that's true that I do but its not common knowledge though or at least I don't say it enough that people know that it's my thing. Eh, he won't be getting a five minute off the cuff doodle from me, probably wear it as some badge of honour.
