PDA

View Full Version : In my experience, the best twitter fights are between two awful, semi-famous people.

This was a classic of the genre. A pair of complete pricks. :hehe:

I saw that

The 'your dead dad would be ashamed' stuff was particularly inflammatory

I think he ought to put twitter down when he's pěssed - which seems to be quite a lot NTTAWWI

He does also have a tendency to threaten to rape and kill people. Although the punchline to this one did make me laugh a lot, tbf.

I sympathise with him there. People never stop wheeling out his dead dad as a stick to beat him with, which is pretty grotesque. People do the same with Peter Hitchens with his brother and it's equally wrong - after all, as if there aren't enough perfectly valid ways to slag off Peter Hitchens without referencing his dead brother.

Viewed in toto, yes. Absolutely.

Isolated things on it can make one laugh, but cumulatively, it is a net loss for mankind.

Who'd have thought that being exposed to the thoughts and ideas of more human beings than ever before possible would make us hate each other even more than we did already?

Misanthropes, that's who. :hehe: We were right all along. Geddin!

On the other hand, mocking Frank Lampard's mum-bothering celebrations whenever one of his shots had cannoned in of several people's arses was perfectly acceptable.

:shrug: I don't make the rules.

Oh, I know. And it was clearly Lampard using his mother's death in order to preen narcissistically, so sympathy was in short supply.
