Personally I’d like more news about colossal squid and less about colossal cunts. Trump, Farage, Rowling et al — cold, spineless, slimy —but only the squid know about real depth

She's right. I was banned from an all you can eat Buffet because I criticised HS2.
Of course on my restraining order it said it was because
1. You can't bring your own 'cutlery'.
2. I was 'growling' at other customers
3. A shovel isn't cutlery.

Deep down here by the dark water lived old Musk, a small slimy creature. I don’t know where he came from, nor who or what he was. He was Musk—as dark as darkness, except for two pale beady eyes in a face like human skin had been pulled over Kermit the Frogs head.”

I know you wanted me to stay, but I can't ignore the crazy visions of me in Sydenham. So I’ll be strutting, ranting, and possibly oversharing at The Poodle Club—the place where boys and girls—and comedians—can all be Queens every single day... well, for 10 or 20 mins!

Elon Musk has spent more money trying to penetrate the heavens than he has a woman. And to be fair, with greater success – the rocket lasted minutes.

I heard he was last seen on the launchpad, screaming “DID YOU CUM?!” into the sky

Not sharing intelligence? Do they have enough to go around anyway? Since they stopped manufacturing it, I assume there are massive tariffs on importing things like intelligence, common sense, and humanity. #USUkraine #ShortSupply #161comedy
