Clearly Doc hates Jews.

Yesterday a friend was telling me that an acquaintance of his worked for CBC Radio, prepping guests and the like, and she said that the politest guests she'd ever worked with were … the Gallagher brothers from Oasis. They were combative dicks on-air, but before and afterwards they were exceedingly non-demanding and conscientious to all the staff. While it's no surprise that they played upon their contrariness for public consumption, I was surprised that they'd be singled out for being the nicest guests she'd worked with. None of which excuses war crimes like "Wonderwall," but still.

That really is surprising. I don't picture them being the type to be polite to "the help." Refreshing to hear, unlike their music.

Makes me like them more. I guess they do come from a genuinely working class background which I think does tend to make people more inclined not to treat people beneath them like shit. Get exceptions, of course.

I’m not so sure having shared plenty of Paddington boozers in mid 90’s.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Hello,

It's not looking good for DEVO. Perhaps they're happier with this poll.
