He was great on HIGNFY though!

I don’t understand how you don’t know, or aren’t interested in, these things. Good that you’re asking questions I guess.

Btw, the funny man with the blonde hair is actually a baddie.

There’s loads of MPs, i’m not expected to know what all of them are up to.

I always see her name pop-up in a negative light so asked if she was a mega Michael Fabricant knowing full well she probably is. Was hoping for someone to go further into why which is the reason I asked.

Just feels like you think i’m some rich tory who doesn’t care about anything sometimes.

I’m not rich and i’m not a tory. I could probably care more but I’m not completely ignorant.

@hugo

I’m not rich and i’m not a tory.

Didn’t say anything like that, but you do seem way more concerned with your income/belongings lately.

Thought everybody would be aware of a prominent right-wing Tory who’s in charge of Mental Health during the lockdown brought on by a global health emergency. It’s not like she’s the Lib Dem’s expert in garden ponds or something.

What did I do or say to make you think this?

[hugo]

I did buy a new fridge and a new bike. lol

[buildafire]

@hugo

Back to that Defender, they’re not that expensive. I was thinking it would be 80k but it’s like 50k.

@hugo

In my experience, regular exercise bikes are terrible unless you spend a bit of money.

@hugo

I have super charger in my garage.

@hugo

Can lift it with my little finger. It’s way too good for my ability but fuck it.

@hugo

I don’t think it’s really time for bashing the PM, even though he’s a tosser.

@hugo

Just went to Waitrose in East Sheen as I’d heard they were running things well.

They had a 1 in 1 out policy and were cleaning every trolly before giving it to you. Was no queue and they were fully stocked.

It might have cost 50% more than my usual Sainsbury’s shop but it was well worth it.

@hugo

I can accept that I’m probably unintentionally prejudiced, I’m a privileged white straight male.

I dunno, just seems a bit over the top flossy when friends of yours are selling their belongings to survive just now.

[buildafire]

Also possibly still annoyed from when I was meant to meet you in London one time and you went off to buy a car instead.

[ihatethegeneralpublic]

[hugo]

Completely unintentional.

I grew up with nothing, mum was on benefits with 4 children, my dad was a wasteman who never gave her a penny. We had to have the free school meals, no holidays, 2nd hand everything, bayliffs knocking on the door, we were almost homeless more than once.

I dropped out of uni in 2008 because all I did was skate, drink and gamble.

I’ve managed to go from a low paid job to a reasonable paid job and cleaned my act up.

I’ll be conscious not to come across flossy in the future.

[buildafire]

Not at all, just a mindless observation.

[ihatethegeneralpublic]

One in 400 people in England has coronavirus, tests suggest

That actually seems quite high considering how many people are still not working, commuting etc

[Snurp]

That’s a cool bike

[hugo]

There’s too much to take in there.

[ihatethegeneralpublic]

Coronavirus infection 'R' rate in UK creeps up

[doowyrag]

Initial reaction was cool bike but, without being mean, the more I look at the picture the more I see…

[voodoo]

Got a few teacher friends fuming about this bullshit starting to leak into the media…

[niallc]

yea can confirm, I work in a school and my girlfriend is a teacher. Nobody wants to go back.

[Spanky]

Even the daily mail font makes me angry

[jimvo]

Fuckin’ hell

[tbk11]

Yeah a few teacher mates are screwing over that, one of them posted a pic of that scumbag hopkins tweet earlier also which is truly truly infuriating
