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

Ah yes, the cutesy/coy. Grim.

Hasn't put his dentures in.

squeakytoy · 07/02/2012 15:16

I think Gillian McKeith is related to him too.. they look so scarily alike... Grin

KurriKurri · 07/02/2012 15:43

I love the Beatles too, but Macca was bloody irritating even when he had the others around to take the piss out of him. The cute coy faces were inappropriate on a 20 something, they look mad on a man in his seventies, if you watch old films of the Beatles Paul is always poncing around with a cat's bum mouth, looking like the Head Boy, while everyone else is having a laugh.

Plus he was perfectly happy to let John and Yoko take the crap for the Beatles splitting up, then totally spat his dummy when John died and became Saint John, and people looked a bit more closely into the Eastman side of things and Paul's role.

I could go on .... Grin Can you tell I'm not a fan of King Paul of McCartneyland?

FruitShootsAreALittleHorrit · 07/02/2012 15:48

He's coming on for a web chat soon....do you think he'll read this?

only joking!

KurriKurri · 07/02/2012 15:49

I think he has an automatic brain filter that only allows him to takes in good things people have written about him Grin

SuePurblybilt · 07/02/2012 15:52

Oh my, the advert. That song would have been ok, in a sort of jazz standard-y/ratpack mash-up (yup, I did) sort of a way, had he not sung it himself. He sounds all quavery and wrong.
And the weird fish pout, why? Is he struggling for breath?

BettyBathroom · 07/02/2012 15:54

That advert is brilliant, very funny. He is such a daft prick!

JuluLu · 07/02/2012 15:55

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

I am CRYING with laughter at this.

His face looks as if it has been sewn together from damp white cotton.

MuffinTheMilf · 07/02/2012 16:05

Bwhahaha - I'm loving this thread! So nice to know other people find him a pompous, arrogant git.

I thought him and Heather Mills were well suited actually, hard to say who was more vile.

ShatnersBassoon · 07/02/2012 16:09

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

Grin

He looks like a third rate taxidermist's attempt at 'Relaxed yet aroused sloth'. There's no life in his face.

SilentBoob · 07/02/2012 16:09

Did he forget to put his teeth in for that advert?

redrubyshoes · 07/02/2012 16:14

I love the YouTube comments from that advert;

"Sigh - he is all hearts and rainbows isn't he"

KurriKurri · 07/02/2012 16:19
Shock

George Harrison was by far the nicest Beatle and had the best solo song 'My Sweet Lord'. I've watched documentaries about him and he seemed like a really down to earth guy who never got a chance to show his full genius in the Beatles because Lennon/McCartney were so domineering.

The way Macca carries on you'd think he invented music but the first Beatles album was practically a Motown/blues covers album. Of course they eventually developed their own sound and were musical geniuses (I have many of their albums and the song 'Tomorrow Never knows' was so ahead of its time it could be released now as a dance track and most kids would think it was new) but they are treated with a bit too much deference.

Capricorn76 · 07/02/2012 16:40

I also think Heather Mills took way too much shit from the press during that divorce. Anyone would've thought she'd drowned puppies the way the tabloids carried on about her. I bet Macca is quite the tyrant when he wants to be. Peace signing all the time does not an angel make. His daughter who always has a face like a wet weekend in Bognor can do one too.

redrubyshoes · 07/02/2012 19:19

Paul McCartney is on Radio Two now.

Count how many times he says "yer know."

redrubyshoes · 07/02/2012 19:20

and mentions John Lennon.

SuePurblybilt · 07/02/2012 19:22

I'm telling you, he's morphing into Sir Cliff. It starts off with the uhhhhhhhs and the yer knows and ends up with the you guys and cool, peace and loves.

Slippery slope.

redrubyshoes · 07/02/2012 19:23

or The Beatles

DublinMammy · 07/02/2012 19:24

What a bloody funny thread.

He is just creepy/ loathsome. It must have been hell to be married to him, he really thinks he is God's gift to music/ world peace/ women. Ugh. Shudder.

redrubyshoes · 07/02/2012 19:24

I need the loo keep count Sue.
