As I get older, I often think about this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1q9vyrB2k6s And especially the bit that comes just before it about being too old to be drafted into a war and then being too old to be drafted into a war that was going incredibly badly.

A specific accuser has appeared against Damien Green, saying he touched her leg, made inappropriate comments and sent her suggestive messages. Green denies everything, so he better hope there aren't any more women out there willing to come forward against him.

Ratjaculation posted:Frasiers on guys, be quiet Ehhhh, it's okay I guess, but like a lot of 90s sitcoms it feels completely toothless nowadays. Although even back in the day it just seemed like any other sitcom but had the main character talk about theatre rather than sports or TV.

Me, every 1st of the month: "Why's the UKMT dropped off the top of my bookmarked threa-- ohhhh" So I wonder if Green will step down by the end of the day. Got a feeling there's some real Thick of It-ing behind the scenes.

TomViolence posted:I wonder if the euphemistic language is an attempt to downplay the severity of the acts or if it's just keeping things purposefully ambiguous in case the spreadsheet became public. Or maybe it's just some concession to propriety, with all the doublethink that implies. I was thinking last night that Michael Fallon's column is open to interpretation on whether or not the MP he was sexual with was able to consent. Happily married hetero guy assaults drunk colleague isn't going to get into a newspaper without the victim speaking about it, either.

Quite apart from Frasier being poo poo, wasn't the guy who plays him shown to be history's greatest monster? I can only assume you're all being ironic here claiming to like it.

Frasier gets lauded for being smart, but all the episodes I've seen have been some basic rear end sitcom bollocks, except the punchline is something sophisticated sounding. Like there's almost definitely an episode where sets up two dates at once, and the only thing that differs from a Three's Company is that one date is at an operetta and another is a loving charity cheese tasting event or something.

People can't tell the difference between smart and sophisticated sounding. That's why Rees-Mogg gets credited with anything at all.

That's kind of the joke of Frasier, that even though he's snooty as poo poo he's just as capable of getting in over his head as every other sitcom dad, usually due to his pride and arrogance.

Yeah, Frasier is smart in the same way as the Big Bang Theory is geeky. They can both be enjoyable shows (though i haven't watch TBBT for a couple years) but they're not inherently better than their peers.

I remember Goodness Gracious Me being really good, am I forgetting something lovely from it? Armstrong and Miller was also pretty good. Monkey Dust was amazing, gently caress Closure for causing it to end. (Edit: and its creator obviously).
