Fair play to him for coming up with the most obscure combination of words.
Thinking outside the box has never been more cringe-worthy

Ringo is a twat too

Hassled · 07/02/2012 12:50

Nooo - Ringo is cool. The laconic twist he gave to Thomas the Tank - how can you criticise a master?

But I'm with you on Sir Macca. Wrote a lovely melody back in the day, but his lyrics never compared to Saint John's. In My Life versus Michelle anyone?

AnyFucker · 07/02/2012 12:59

I have seen Ringo interviewed on 2 occasions and both times he made it quite plain he was a higher being, was there under sufferance (something to sell, of course) and that there was a very nasty smell under his nose the whole time Smile

BupcakesandCunting · 07/02/2012 13:06

Ringo is a twat. Remember when he said he didn't want any more fan mail? Peace and love peace and love.

misty0 · 07/02/2012 13:06

Smug, wrinkly, uncool, self satisfied, 'look at me i'm so wonderful', past his sell by date, cocky, egotistical, immodest, pompous, puffed up, smug, swollen-headed, vain, tortoise-like GIT!

aahh that felt good :)

bakingaddict · 07/02/2012 13:08

WTF is Macca doing with the Botox, he looks like some weird puppet man

I always wonder if they get jabbed down there too, otherwise what's the point of having a face like a baby's bum when your gonads tell another story that your're really just another saggy, wrinkly, liverspotted, 70yr old with more money than sense trying to recapture your youth

AnyFucker · 07/02/2012 13:09

He was also enormously disparaging about his home town of Liverpool, and the people that still live there (the ones too stupid to get out, obvs)

and not in an affectionate "I love the horrid ole place really..."

Ringo Starr Quite possibly wins the prize for "person who was in the right place at the right time"

AnyFucker · 07/02/2012 13:10

I fully believe that Sir Paul's scrotum currently resides somewhere on a level with his knee caps

YANBU the blokes a prize twit.

Yep. Poor old Pete Best eh?

TheCuntwormUnderfoot · 07/02/2012 13:14

It's bad enough that PM exists full stop.

ShatnersBassoon · 07/02/2012 13:15

YANBU, although working titles included 'Bed Sores on the Bottom' and 'Bum-bum Smoochy Time' so it's a good job someone reined the old gimmer in a bit.

AnyFucker · 07/02/2012 13:15

Pete Best wuz robbed

Do you mean the wonderful Radio 4 programme with Eddie Mair??? If so, wash your mouth out with soap and water! If on the other hand you mean Macca then I'm right behind you!

TheCuntwormUnderfoot · 07/02/2012 13:32

Grin Sarah

AbsofCroissant · 07/02/2012 14:05

Ah, Paul. Oh dear

He's defo not my fave Beatle (John, if any of you were wondering) and he has come out with some pretty fuckwitted remarks previously, but this is fabulous. And very cringey.

Imagine being the people working on this with him, all those months, having to snigger in silence while he seriously and earnestly went along recording Kisses on the Bottom? Maybe he's senile?

Chubfuddler · 07/02/2012 14:25

Without wishing to be unpleasant, John Lennon has the significant advantage of being dead and therefore unable to say stupid things a la Ringo or marry ludicrously a la Paul. He is forever preserved in his cool.

piprabbit · 07/02/2012 14:30

I heard Paul being interviewed recently and it doesn't sound as though he thinks any of the other Beatles contributed much creatively. He probably would have been happier as "Paul and the beatles".

redrubyshoes · 07/02/2012 14:34

I must admit he is a bit like watching your Dad dancing at a wedding. A dad you hated dancing at a wedding...........

ComposHat · 07/02/2012 14:38

John Lennon died at 40, so didn't have the chance to be properly cringe making. However Lennon did come across as a particualrly cruel, sarcastic and violent man (beating his first wife) and neglectful of his first son, Julian. As much as it pains me to defend Wacky Macca, Julian Lennon has claimed that Paul was much more of a father to him than John ever was.

tigana · 07/02/2012 14:43

I get that 'officially' the kisses are on the bottom of a letter...but no way was the grim punniness lost on anyone involved in the 'creative' process and for that they should be forced to listen to the product, non-stop, for weeks if not months..

Ack-sen- chu-ate the positive, eee-lim-in- ate the negative...my arse (with no kisses)

Can't bear the pouty lips/'OOooh' eyes face he pulls in the ad.

Don't care if he is 89 or 16...pile of poo.

SuePurblybilt · 07/02/2012 15:00

There is an ad? Horrors.

BettyBathroom · 07/02/2012 15:00

"Heather Mills earned every penny of her £24million settlement putting up with Macca."

Absolutely.

So glad to find this thread - feeling all warm and fuzzy, thought I was the only Macca hater in the country! Grin
