Ed Koch was a prize cock but by fuck he hated Donald Trump, so he's always got that going for him.

Sanitary Towel telly.

Everyone remembers the old 4:3 aspect ratio, but few people these days remember how much TV used to be in the shape of a sanitary towel.

According to the scientist at CERN in Switzerland, the existence of Matthew Modine implies the existence of Matthew Lessdine.

Fun #TotP Fact: Jesus Jones wondered who and where they were for years until they ran into Hue & Cry backstage at a benefit gig for orphans with no appetite for whimsy and found out they were Linda and they were there, backstage at that gig. Hue & Cry retired shortly after, their search complete.

Huh. So, a lot of people are wearing uncomfy trainers apparently.

Have you even heard Gang Bang by Black Lace?

Massive Attack had to change their name because of the Gulf War. Originally they were called "Give Us Your Fucking Oil You Cunts".

This song was off of that chewing gum advert where the American lad tears a stick of Wrigley's in half and offers a bit to some lassie, innit?
If some lad had offered me half a bit of gum on the bus in Glasgow back in the day I'd have assumed he'd wiped it on his cock first. Different worlds.
#TotO

I can't even remember. I'm going to get all of the merch though and completely bomb my street cred when I get back to Berlin.

We used to all clap along at raves. That was the main thing.
"What's your name? Where you from? What you on? Have you got the clap?" That's what we'd say to each other at petrol stations on the M25 at 2 in the morning in 1989.

Happy birthday, bab.x

Legs & Scaffolding & Co.

People these days forget Flick Colby's showbiz scaffolding business went into administration after she was prosecuted by the HSE following an albeit glittery and fabulous collapse on a building site in central London.

Four people died.

My heights wuthered once. I try to drink at least two litres of water a day now.

Darts but now.

What to feel old? This is Darts now:

Charlie Brown in the 90s.

That lad's "phat" tank top reminds me of when one of the nuns overheard a kid at school say "fuck" and, when confronted, swore blind he'd actually said "thuck". Stoic as thuck performance from the boy.

So that's my homophones story.
#TotP

Finally.
I'm seeing Gruff in Berlin next week and then the SFA in London in May!
What a time to still be alive!
#TotP

Kula Shaker were the direct result of 18 years of Tory government. The miners tried to warn us!
#TotP

Neither am I. Don't tell the King though.

Let's just decide now. If Martine McClutchon is on #TotP again tonight, we storm the barricades and the revolution begins in earnest.

Do you even have a fully grown man who spends his time stalking teenagers by the toilets of a local drive-in diner living in the space above your garage yet? Time's running out!

Fun fact: Happy Days was filmed closer to the actual 1950s than Cleopatra's reign at Queen of the Ptolemaic Kingdom was to the invention of actual Tamagotchis.

Makes you think.

It's good but it's no Police Academy.

You can have that Top Tip if you want, @vizcomic.bsky.social
Just add FILM BUFFS at the start, I guess.

Gute Besserung!

I never felt ill in my life until I stopped smoking prodigious quantities of skunk. Coincidence?

Makes you think.

When someone says that John Williams or John Barry or Ennio Morricone or Jerry Goldsmith or whoever is the greatest film composer of all time, just ask "Oh, did he write the theme tune from Police Academy?", and they'll immediately realise their mistake.

Of course, ALL Brent Spiner facts are fun.

Fun Brent Spiner fact: he shares a birthday with Lieutenant Commander Data!

If she was going to misquote Orwell (and misunderstand the actual quote she was misquoting), she should have put her shoulder into it a bit more.
"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to drive a dog to a quarry and shoot fuck out of it - and have an affair on a government gak plane."

RENEWAL! RENEWAL! RENEWAL!
