Where the fuck is Mark Lamarr?

[Dewt]

If you can show me the social network that indulges the attention tantrums of 50 year old men I would love to see it because at the risk of sounding like a record that Lamarr has headbutted in anger: hilarious

Twitter is shit hot.

[Captain Crunch]

That's the most sensible thing you've said for about four months.

good answer

Culling your followers for not retweeting you. Bit needy.

I'd say it is the opposite of needy, then again people who are on Twitter are needy anyway.

[The Roofdog]

1. Follow 14 people. 2. Accuse others of not using twitter properly. 3. Profit.

He also appears to have blocked Matt Lucas for no reason: https://twitter.com/RealMattLucas/status/1244412948447141890

Probably saw that video of him and Brian may

[Ray Travez]

I quite like that he's still a recalcitrant grumpy sod

Wonderful story he posted just yesterday:

https://www.twitter.com/lamarr_mark/status/1235537578624864256

A favourite story , which I got straight from the horses mouth. Many years ago Tom Robinson was selling off his equipment and a dread came round to buy. He asked why all the amps etc had TRB stamped on them. Tom told him that it was the Tom Robinson band.

The dread replied , oh they were good , I wonder whatever happened to him. Of course Tom told him who he was and the dread was absolutely mortified. In an attempt to ease the situation, Tom said, 'oh it's OK, I often wonder whatever happened to Eddy Grant'.

You can guess the next line.

Is the next line that it was Eddy Grant? That line of TR's - 'oh it's OK, I often wonder whatever happened to Eddy Grant' - was a bit random, if so.

[Ambient Sheep]

Well I assume so, I can't think of any other ending, can you? :-)

Although I would love to know what happened next, as if I'd been Eddy the coincidence would have been so much that I might have suspected Tim Robinson was taking deliberate revenge.  I guess TR was suitably mortified enough in return that EG realised it really was innocent.

[holyzombiejesus]

The 'dread' may have challenged him on why he was mentioning Eddy Grant and whether he had only mentioned him as he himself was a man of colour, leading to Tom apologising and offering a small discount on his musical equipment. A much better ending.

[Ambient Sheep]

Or simply "Oh I can tell you that mate, he married my sister and he's a right cunt!"


_{^{(Most unlikely, as far as I can tell Mr. Grant is a nice man.)}}

[...] I might have suspected Tim Robinson was taking deliberate revenge.

That was how I read it - that Tom Robinson had clocked that he was talking with Eddy Grant and threw that back as a barbed joke. The storyteller only feeds you that it's 'a dread' rather than Eddy Grant because that allows for the punchline reveal.

[Dewt]

He is such a dick

[momatt]

Who's Sarah?

[The Lurker]

His ex-wife/girlfriend, I believe.

[imitationleather]

Sarah's probably just curious about whether or not Quavers are on offer again.

[Captain Z]

She kept asking him what he thought of all this JK Rowling business.

[neardark]

Takes his music tweets very seriously

What a weird thing to have a go at someone over.

I mean Lamar having a go at that bloke.

[Martin Van Buren Stan]

Extra weird considering this

[Sebastian Cobb]

He's a right touchy prick on twitter, a while back he was having a benny and blocking people for liking tweets of his sharing music instead of retweeting.

I'm sure he's a right touchy prick off twitter as well.

[imitationleather]

Probably annoyed he can't get his end away like he used to now he's old, grey and has the full Quaver gut.

[dontpaintyourteeth]

I suppose he's not the only faded media figure who completely misunderstands twitter, but he does seem like a right knobend doesn't he

[Martin Van Buren Stan]

Yeah. That's why he uses the old pic, hoping to stay young forever. He's basically some kind of modern day, quaver addicted Dorian Gray. Quaver buying bastard. Standing by a till with a bag of quavers waiting to exchange legal tender to acquire them.

[ProvanFan]

He probably fancies that sexy cat from the 1993 advert for the new salt & vinegar flavour, the fucking weirdo.
