Any ginger fans out there who haven’t read the new ‘Ask Ginger’ on the wildhearts website should do so… its a bit of an eye opener.

He was born a white, able-bodied male in the United Kingdom. He may not have had a happy childhood, but I know people who have it way worse. Am I supposed to feel sympathy for some guy in a rock band who stuffed too many drugs into his system? Fuck that.

Yeah the Lodge of Naysayers have a prize for Best Newcomer at the Christmas party and Annual Awards Ceremony and I’ve got my eyes on it.

If we could only agree on a date for the party :(

Other guy: “ok, we’ll have it on the 15th of Dec”
Me: “are you coming to it?”
Other guy: “Yeah”
Me: “Well, then I ain’t coming, fuck you”
Other guy: “But you’re one of our strongest members”
Me: “Fuck you. I say nay”
Other guy: “That’s exactly what I’m talking about!”
Me: “Fuck off you mingebag”
*I walk off*
Other guy: “Goddamnit, we almost agreed on a date there”

It must be difficult having a naysayers club - surely a true naysayer would decline the invitation to join.

And the TSB bank is the bank that likes to say “YES”

No.

I love Bill Hicks. Right up there with Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy as far as I’m concerned.

You guys want to hate me some more? I was once offered the opportunity not only to see the Wildhearts for free, but also to interview Ginger when I worked in radio.

I declined.

But you’ll be happy to know I gave the interview to a mate of a mate that was a huge fan.

I bank with the Royal Bank of Scotland. They’re quite inefficient, but then most banks are. Every time I go to a branch here to do something they tell me I should use my local branch… which is in Edinburgh. I asked to change it to one down here, but they said they couldn’t do it. :rolleyes:

I’m with HSBC, when I opened my student account they said “do you want a credit card?” I told them no, but they gave me one anyway. They sent it to my home branch which is in hartlepool, I live nowhere near hartlepool it was helping out a friend of my mum’s who worked there. After a while they sent me a letter saying they were worried I was missing out on the benefits of having a credit card. Errr no, I’m happy with my debit card thanks.

I like the Wildhearts and all, but I agree with that totally.
He complains about the BOD singer saying how bad his life is… then he writes this.

And the ending was very David Brent with the chinese quotation.

Nice to see I’m not alone. I don’t mind some of their songs, but I don’t want rock stars to moan to me about their problems. If you want sympathy, talk to your friends. If you want help, talk to a psychiatrist. If neither work, write a song about it. But don’t come to me asking for sympathy, because other people have it way worse.

It’s a bit like when Kylie got diagnosed with breast cancer. It’s horrible, for sure, and Kylie seems like an ok girl in my book, but why is it we always seem to focus on charities when a celeb gets diagnosed with some illness?
