AIBU?

AIBU to say Paddy McGuinness is the perfect man?

Koala72 · 02/02/2018 21:38

That's it, really. Competent, physically appealing, entertaining and clearly very bright. And an excellent husband.

Come on. Who do you guys think is the perfect man?

Unless professional northerners (and I say that as a northerner) who haven't been funny since their one good show donkeys years ago are your thing

Koala72 · 02/02/2018 21:41

Yes. A Lancashire accent doesn't preclude that ...

Just try to keep talking under that pressure, and co-ordinating that show, the people, making it good - it's a feat. I think an achievement that honestly few could pull off.

does he have that god awful wife that is always taking selfies

Koala72 · 02/02/2018 21:42

ah ok sorry I just admire him.

So who IS worthy of proper admiration then?

OP posts:

SinglePringle · 02/02/2018 21:42

Physically appealing?!

Entertaining?!?!

Bright?!?!?!?

You must be really really drunk!

Sheeeesh · 02/02/2018 21:42

I would OP.

isthismummy · 02/02/2018 21:44

Is he on a tv show now? The last time I saw him it was in Phoenix Nights!

I don't watch much TV

youhaveafacefortheradio · 02/02/2018 21:44

I definitely would

RebeccaCloud9 · 02/02/2018 21:44

His stand up show wasn't great - and was v rude (not in a funny way) and it certainly didn't make him seem attractive in the slightest.

NotAnotherUserName5 · 02/02/2018 21:45

Think you must be his wife

Koala72 · 02/02/2018 21:45

Ha.

So how could anyone not fancy him? Am I wrong?? Thank you, Sheeeeesh.

I bet he's really nice on Sundays, too. I bet he would be happy to go to the garden centre and wander around and carry slightly pointless pot plants to the car. He bloody would.

iklboo · 02/02/2018 21:45

You know he's wearing and earpiece and is probably getting feed from the gallery? Plus they'll have edited out all the really shite bits where he dried, fluffed his lines, fell flat etc

JeremiahBackflip · 02/02/2018 21:45

Competent.

Not something I would have had as a top quality in any fantasy husband, it has to be said.

Makes me think of a man hoiking his slacks up by his thumbs, shoving a paper under his oxters and then setting about a piece of DIY (or indeed, intimate relations) with grim determination to Get The Job Done Adequately before Homes Under The Hammer finishes.

Namechanged36 · 02/02/2018 21:46

I would too.
And I loved Phoenix Nights.
And Take Me Out

Koala72 · 02/02/2018 21:46

The last time I saw him it was in Phoenix Nights!

Omg!!! What he in Phoenix Nights???? Then I do love him!!

Best show ever.

DilysPrice · 02/02/2018 21:46

Nice bloke but insufficiently Welsh.

I'm going to suggest Steve Jones - I'm not sure he's going to get into Mensa any time soon mind - Rhod Gilbert, Gethin Jones or Ioan Gruffudd..

isthismummy · 02/02/2018 21:46

Jeremiah

user1471517900 · 02/02/2018 21:47

It is clearly Kriss Akabusi. I think ability over 400m hurdles and knowledge of world records is a crucial aspect of any future husband

Koala72 · 02/02/2018 21:47

I'm not sure he's going to get into Mensa any time soon mind .
But maybe he's a rough diamond?

OP posts:

isthismummy · 02/02/2018 21:48

Ioan Gruffudd. Now there you're talking. I'd blow his horn anyday, etc etc etc...

DilysPrice · 02/02/2018 21:49

I am however completely with you on your choice of competence as top attribute in fantasy husband. Fantasy shags can be hopelessly impractical, but fantasy husbands need to know how to fix a leaking toilet.

oh sorry omg forgot Tom Hardy - how could I?!!!!!

(all that bashing on the head and pain spikes from tattoos probably not that good for his brain cells, though) (but does it matter?)

OP posts:

Koala72 · 02/02/2018 21:50

(actually Tom Hardy is proven very intelligent)

(scientifically proven)

OP posts:

isthismummy · 02/02/2018 21:50

Errr he's gained all his fame off the back of Phoenix Nights Koala If it wasn't for Peter Kaye (who also hasn't been funny since) he'd probably be working in the chippy back home now.
