Tim Dowling, for example, is a twat

[Robespierre]

..who writes moderately entertaining columns about his personal life in The Guardian. Yesterday's was about the perils of self-googling, and in particular of an episode of self-googling which returned the text 'Tim Dowling for example is a twat'

Where did he find that humbling line?? On mumsnet of course!

In the article he claims to have given up self-googling, but we know that isn't true, don't we.

Shall we give him a few more personal insights? I think he is less of a twat than Jon Ronson and he doesn't have a whiney voice.

Do you know, I've been feeling really low today, what with work being crap n'all, and this has really really cheered me up. Hurrah for twats. They should be prescribed instead of happy pills

YY banned yoghurt and explained to the parents that it was their own shockingly low self esteem that was causing their children to eat too much petit filous.

Polk- there are those who disagree with us about Jeremy.....

Trudy Styler is a massive massive twat

Jamie Oliver, for example, is a fat-tongued twat.

Dora the Explora, she is an annoying idiotic Twat. And her mate.

Hannah Montana. TWAT.

Leave Dr Tanya alone. I love her and her "stop fussing over your children" APPROACH.

Oops caps lock!

Keep popping back to boost my serotonin. If we're getting low down and dirty with children's characters then how about Little Cook of BCLC fame? I really do think he is a twat.

nick ferrari, for example, is a self satisfied twat.

no i like the cooks.

and i dont know who nick ferrari IS

does he inhabit louche winebars somewhere?

So agree:

John Torode, for example, is a twat.

Twattissimo

Pmsl at "fat toungued"!

tongued That is really tricky to type!

"Bono is King twat" just made me snort coffee out of my nose!

I really hope he self-googles (or at least gets some poor assistant deputy PA to do it for him...)

Oh god, Stringfellow, YES!

How about Sarkozy? Or actually, Carla Bruni if you saw their meeting with Nelson Mandela (shown on a recent tribute programme).

Jonathan Ross is ugly boring self centred inane and a twat.

So women can be twats, as in Germaine Greer, for example, is a twat. (All due respect paid of course).

strictly men should be referred to as twatless twats....

Are we doing fictional characters now?

Cos if we are then Janeway from Star Trek Voyager is an annoying uber-twat, oh yes she is.

And Charlie Sheen, biggest twat in hollywood.

Whoever said Simon Cowell, shame on you ((wags finger)) He is the saviour of mankind {wink}

I agree with all the twats
