Mouthy sluts

Sometimes in life you are a victim of circumstance. A series of events, timings and inevitablilities can end up forcing you into atrocious situations you wouldn't normally have left yourself exposed to.

My recent fate (the time I take my lunch at coupled with the facts that our staff room has two stations-ITV and AV, and that I usually feel too brain dead to read a book) has led me to dark depths. I have unwittingly become a follower of ITV's female led panel show Loose Women.
A show which "consists of a panel of four women who interview celebrities and discuss topical issues, ranging from daily politics and current affairs, to celebrity gossip and sexism."

Today saw them discussing (with guest panelist Fizz from Coronation street) the ever so topical engagement of Prince William and Kate. Proceedings got very spirited, as you can imagine, and the excitement was oozing out of their painted mouths at the rate of knots when they started discussing the potential dress designs and wedding speeches. Things took a turn for the worst though when they had a heated debate over whether or not it was right for him to give her his dead Mother's ring. Handbags at dawn-quite literally.

I find it very hysterical that a show which lists sexism as one of it's topics would not even see the ironic irony in it's own title. Only mouthy sluts have opinions, is it? Its a title that was clearly meant to induce surprise once you got into it- "that must be a show full of cum guzzling knacker tarts" and then switch it on to be greeted by a group of strong, mature women who have refused to let themselves go . They have opinions ladies, and they aren't prepared to hide them!

What you actually get is a pack of divorce ridden trolls in blusher who churn out dollops of celebrity horseshit glossed over with a lick of current affairs (just to show women can talk politics too.)

I'm not opposed to women only shows if I felt they were entertaining, in any way representative or were serving any purpose in our quest for equality. They should just give up the ghost, get their tits out, throw down some double bacardis and start simulating blow jobs on chippendales.

Austrailia

Not content with the 70 million labourers, nurses and drug addicts that depart in hordes from Ireland to Austrailia every year, they've now started advertising it.
The big pilgrimage acts as a kind of hiatus between the college years and the real world-the one where you have to get a mortgage, all of your friends start getting married, and people stop carrying nagans in their purses on nights out. The last big chance to drink every night of the week, have unprotected sex, develop skin cancer, and talk with other Irish people about other Irish people that you both know back home through a friend of a friend.
But its not this that offends me.
What has really gotten under my skin is the shameless way they've taken the Aboriginal child from Austrailia (my least favourite film of 2008) and paraded him around a lavish city apartment in his fucking loin cloth. So the abbos are vogue now, are they? Its as repulsive to me as the half-hearted dedication to the lost generations at the the end of the film. Something the film made no real effort to explain or animate as it was too busy framing skeletors translucent face, or zooming in on Wolverine's steriod ridden veins to actually film something that might be interesting to a wider audience.

Whatever happened to Fay Wray?

I only realised the other night that the Classic Cinema is gone and apparently has been for ages. The sense of sadness quickly turned to relief when I heard about this. The building would have crumbled to the ground upon release. I genuinely feel enraged.Why do they need a new Rocky? I'm completely dumbfounded as to what audience they're trying to appeal to. They can't even use the excuse of people not wanting to read when they go to the cinema for this one.
The entire appeal is going to be lost. Part of it's charm was that it looked like it was made on 20 euro by a load of people who were in love with eachother.Apparently theres going to be some new songs too. Riff and Magenta will probably sail off in a fucking Lexus.

I urge people to sign the petition (that will do nothing) and burn any cinema to the ground that tries to show it*.











*To be fair I don't really see any other cinema other than The Classic pulling this off (maybe The Smella Stella) Imagine the dry shites over at cineworld openly encouraging you to drink and dance during a film.
