Happy birthday Elvis Costello! He and the Attractions were on SNL in 1977–only a few lines into “Less than Zero,” the band plays their unapproved song “Radio, Radio” which criticizes censorship in corporate media. The group was banned from SNL for 12 years
@EleanorMorton I'm giving GDT a pass on this one. All my national ire is still churning on the convo at a service station in the borders last week, where a chap from Essex told me that my Aberdeen accent, and the Inverness accents he'd been hearing while up there, "didn't sound Scottish"
From the idiots that brought you 'Let's get sued by an olympic boxer' comes 'You can't be a proper woman if you... have tattoos?' Take this as a warning, being this chronically online allows the brain worms to turn your mind to mince.
@hashtagwilbert Also remarkable how many of them just happened upon a riot in progress while going about their innocent business and have no idea how they ended up at front chucking wheelie bins around.
