thats fucking amazing. i didnt even realise there was a video camera in my living room let alone that my illness was being filmed. wife looks a bit ropey in it though, normally shes much hotter.

i love that clip! i think edgar ‘wright here wright now’ is a genius! but ropey? what the fuck is ropey?
and rob, if that is an antidote to you being Oprah ish, you’re in trouble, sweetie. you need to go and chop down a tree, or start a fire or kill a spider for jill, or something…

Comment by lauren

you cant talk about wanting to understand british culture and then admit you dont know what fucking ropey is. christ woman, i know youre an aussie but youre a smart aussie, get with the fucking program. and as for rob chopping down a tree or killing a spider to be anti Oprah, this is the fucker who almost sawed his finger off when he was at school (got the scar to prove it) and called the fire brigade to get rid of a cockroach that was in his bedroom. and no, i am not fucking joking which begs the question, what the fuck am i doing being in business with him?

Comment by andy@cynic

I don’t know which is more shocking, the fact the actor looks like you or behaves like you? πŸ™‚

Comment by Pete

get with the fucking program? well fuck you! i asked precisely because i’m tring to get my head around ‘british culture’ not because i’m pretending i know two fucking hoots about it, sweetheart!

you so fucking want me πŸ™‚

ropey:
was once ok but now is slightly dodgy.
ie: joan collins is slightly ropey, 5 day old steak and kidney pie is slightly ropey, my arse (after a vindaloo and 10 pints) is slightly ropey.

get it or should i say, want it? πŸ™‚

Comment by andy@cynic

better than looking and acting like george fucking hamilton (senior) pete πŸ™‚

Comment by andy@cynic

Sorry Pete but you’ve got to admit that is a solid gold response of pure, fucking evil.

I can only aspire to that level of attack so from now on Andy will be known by the moniker of “Guru of Venom”. I’m still laughing, it’s brilliant.

Comment by Billy Whizz

Cutting. But at least say I am more like Hamilton junior than the wrinkly old bastard. Come on Andy, we’re friends, we have a long history, cut me a bit of slack. Remember I’m only 33 and my skin is brown not orange.

Comment by Pete

ok pete, ok…. but at least hamilton senior did something and achieved a certain level of success success but hey, if you want to be the “junior” version of the cheesy fuck, then so be it and you have my blessing. dont say i never do anything for you and the beers are definitely on you this weekend.

Comment by andy@cynic

got it. putting it into a sentence: george hamilton is a proper ropey bastard?

good night all.

Comment by lauren

Why do I feel like I’m the guy who asked to move from the safe confines of the army kitchens to lead the suicide mission of the D-Day landings? Sometimes I should just be happy with the first insult I’m given , lol.

Comment by Pete

with comments like that lauren you make me like you more. pete probably feels somewhat different.

Comment by andy@cynic

It’s comments like these that restores my faith in humanity. Do you think that means I’m fucked?

Comment by Rob

Oh, and be grateful I’m not getting the lawyers onto you Andy for your vicious and unprovoked character assasination of me – of course it’s more to do with the fact that what you said is [I am ashamed to say] true rather than me being a nice and decent guy!

Where did it all go wrong?

Comment by Rob

So THAT’S where the actor who played Nathan Barley ended up…

Nice clip..
