Thanks all.

Who is someone you inexplicably can't stand?

    Absolutely mad to make himself into a celebrity.
    Remember that fad years ago of bookies putting themselves in ads? BetFred, Victor Chandler etc. it was cringy and they dropped it sharpish. Except for PP who seems to think he's hilarious and well loved.
    Your man is an actor. Paddy Power is just a brand name that David Power the founder came up with.

    Probably going to see Paul Mescals name all over the net again because of the Bafta. He comes across as an arrogant attention seeking ar*ehole.

    If it wasn't for coronavirus/ lockdown..... 'normal people' & 'tigerking' would never have got a 'look In' .

    The snivelling greasy little pissant in the RSA Seatbelt ad "What do you think will happen".

    The ****ing head on him. I can't decide what is worse, the baby beard, the eyebrows, the lego hair, the greasy skin, or maybe its just the whole gurning package.

    I think the real problem is his manner. He is asking his mate to put on a seatbelt and he honestly looks like he is about to cry, what sort of pissy little coward is this guy? Christ, grow a set of balls you little greasefart.

    The last thing the world needed was a close up of that lads face.

    On Italia 90

    'I missed Italia 90 I was in Italy'

    On a colleague who had retired but kept coming back to the office

    'forgotten but not gone'

    On Punctuation

    'a man who will misuse an apostrophe is capable of anything'

    On his favourite cocktail Brandy and milk

    'The Brandy takes the schting out of the milk'

    Con was grand, really. He wasn't the kind of guy who pushed himself front and center like a lot of sports 'pundits'.

    Instead, he just wrote. You'd never see the level of, sort of, disdain that some supposed pundits have for sports nowadays.
    Which I 'sort of' understand... but then I think 'you're getting paid to do this, lighten up'.

    'I put out a call on twitter'...

    ... I stopped reading there. Tells me he rather exist in a bubble than speak to ordinary regular people.
    Folks on twitter are more worried about 'microaggressions' than they are actually fixing issues that affect everyone.

    Did he offer a solution?

    He suggests that the solution is one that will "prioritise the following; fair rent and security of tenure; a commitment to build public/social housing; protection for citizens against the abuses of vulture funds; prioritising of communities; bringing fairness to the market; banning land and property hoarding; or ending the special relationship between government and amoral developers."

    Comments are turned off - naturally - when the Journal doesn't want the author criticised.

    The Twitter feed is basically an echo chamber with occasional dissent. Soundbites like "rent is evil" are no help.

    Magical thinking, it looks like. I was going to say wishful thinking, but he's not connected to reality with that mindset.

    Steve Carrell in straight roles. His comedy stuff is grand but I always hate his characters in any drama stuff.
