Set my mind at rest please.Will Self,total wanker or utterly brilliant??

[moondog]

Hmmmmm??

phew

I think I'm alone in almost preferring what he writes to what he says..but I think the answer to the question is no

sorry yes

err no the former (wanker)

Both - hence inconsistant

unreliable

..and never does the washing up!

Well whatever my alledged gynaecological status, it has nothing to do with Will Self, I do assure you!

Uh? What pg anyway??

Well that writing/speaking thing is intersting.
Julie Burchill comes across as the sort of half wit who would be selling one Lambrusco in Bargain Booze when speaking.

However,in writing....oh hold on,she's shit at that too.

MD - I think you have mixed me up with someone! [smile}

Blu,am I confusing you with MonkeyTrousers then lol??
(Seeing as I usually see you both on PD's threads)
One of you is doing a degree......

yes. MonkeyTrousers.
We often offere similiar pov - but she is more erudite than me.
And more pg by the sounds of it, too!

Oh Blu!
False modesty methinks.

No waaaayyyyy!

I was channeling Burchill on here for a moment though - my F4J 'crippledick' phase

Where is PD anyhow?

And I'm not pregnant - just 3 months fat!

both.

he makes me bark with laughter
he is a twat too

WANKER WANKER WANKER
WANKER AS BIG AS A TANKER
BUT he can write

I heard him in a lecture a few years back and he was v good. DH read one of his books (or his only book?) and he was slightly disappointed.

lol at 'slightly (my italics) disappointed'

He has ugly feet apparently.

I hate him too - tosser - however, he has brought out the best in Sobernow. v.v.funny

Total wanker, but he does have occasional flashes of insight that would never occur to most people.

As an aside, is anyone else wondering how Moondog knew it was human excrement that she stepped in? [yeuch emoticon] Did you do a forensic examination to see what type of food the poo had originally been MD?

Brilliant. I like people with big vocabularies. I'm easily impressed . I like his writing in the Independent even if some of it reads like the ramblings of a very stoned and odd person. But I also quite like stoned and odd people. What does that say about me....hmmm....wander off to consider....

I'm never quite sure what I think of him.

Sometimes hes very funny, other times hes a complete arse and then there are those times (which I think completely confuse me the most!) when he really reminds me of an ex. He both looks and sounds like him so it sort of freaks me out a bit.
