Perhaps we could politely ask all those who are not interested in GoT to kindly create their own snark thread and stay there. 😉

Since there aren’t many fans, maybe participants could all choose three characters for Arthur’s game? (And you can’t just choose three minor ones).

That’s a GREAT idea. Do it, do it. I’ll be Sansa.

It’s this, and it really is lovely.

My magic mouse is very flaky. It won’t work if a USB device is plugged in.

Lee Scratch Perry box (sounds wonderful), 2 x The Fall, Disco Not Disco compilation and a hangover for me.

The other day The Guardian ran a piece on tribute acts in the age of ‘problematic’ stars, and among those featured — Jackson, Glitter, Spector, Lewis — was Cliff Richard, who has never even been arrested let […]

The way I see it, it’s an investment. I’m not being flippant, I genuinely do.

For free!? Crikey, you got a bargain there.

I’m paying my son to catalogue my entire collection on Discogs, the idea being that I’ll have a realistic idea of how much it’s worth and then when I die he can literally press a button and put the whole lot up […]

I had a Denon that was doing this. It was just so picky as to what would play. In the end I sent it back (it was under a year old) got another one, problem solved. Took me a long time and quite a lot of cleaning […]

No, it was definitely Quentin Tarantino who directed True Romance. I have the DVD at home.

Loads of other good, actually great, ones…

Leaving Las Vegas
Bad Lieutenant 2
Frozen Ground
Joe
Mandy
Lord of War
Adaptation
Face/Off
Snake Eyes
Kick Ass

I thought it was pretty dreadful all told, although it was fun spotting the lyrical references. Poor old Johnny Marr, he’s made to look a right bell-end.

I can’t get over how young he was. He must only have been about 15 when they had their first hit.

I don’t agree with Morrissey’s expressed political views, but I absolutely love the fact that he’s still winding people up. And I find the fact that he’s busy alienating his natural constituency genuinely […]

A while ago I had an idea for like a Twitter account, or a blog or something: “Things that Lee “Scratch” Perry claims to be”. I started (and, as it turned out ended) with the song Lucy Charm, in which he claims to […]

I have literally just this moment learned that Perfect Day *isn’t* about heroin.
