Clarkson - Genius or Twat?

Post by davemacfrombath »

Hooray - another chance for a heated debate...

I really do FUCKING HATE Jeremy Clarkson.

He's a fat, right wing, smug, arrogant, narrow minded, permie-haired, tediously unfunny twat who deserves to die by torture, IMO.

I'm sure not everyone agrees with this summary, so let's have a poll...
Slugs! HE created slugs! They can't hear. They can't speak. They can't operate machinery. Are we not in the hands of a lunatic?

Clarkson is a self-satisfied smug fuckhead but at least he knows it,plays up to it and can actually be funny because of it.Same rules apply to lanky goth Russell Brand,too.

He is an arrogant, mysogynistic, xenophobic, tory loving fuckhead, but occasionally he is reasonably entertaining and I still want his job. :cry:

Tory? Where did you get that from?

Read his books. You'll find that he's equally scathing about all political parties and really doesn't lean any way. Just because he's a petrol-head and dresses like a middle-aged man, doesn't mean he's a tory. I mean, look at Mucus....oh, right, yeah.

Anyway, since when did someone's political beliefs become a reason not to like them (especially when they're doing something as inoffensive as hosting a TV program - there is an off button!). I mean, unless you're condoning genocide or kiddy-fiddling or something, why should you be hated for your beliefs?

It's his column in the Sun... and his appearances on Have I Got News for You... and his pale blue jeans... and his lumberjack shirt tucked into them... and he probably wears brown shoes... he's just a fucking twat.

His column in the Sun was always tongue in cheek. He also did a column in the Sunday times but you probably wouldn't have read it as there weren't as many pictures in it and the words may have been too long for you. His appearences on Have I got news for you were great, and as for his dress sense. Looking at the pix of Macstock, I think you need to look in the mirror first before passing comment on how someone else dresses!!!

Despite what anyone thinks of the bloke. He has a house in Oxford, one in the Isle of Man, has a newspaper column, a TV show, has written a couple of books and no doubt has a shit load of money and a decent lifestyle. The jealousy of some people :wink:
