And then I can read the post thinking, hang on, it's fucking weird that you've brought hair colour into this.

Superb.

I'm looking forward to when somebody with brown hair does something cunty, and somebody posts about it, asking whether there's there's a shitter browno than this guy?  Then one or two people can complain about it, while the rest of the folk harp on about how shit the guy's art is, and how it is possible that anyone could find him attractive?  I mean, look at his brown bumfluff on his chin?  And then I can read the post thinking, hang on, it's fucking weird that you've brought hair colour into this.

^^^ that that that ^^^

Said it many times before and no doubt I'll say it again. There are only two groups of people in this country you can say absolutely anything about, no matter how horrible, and totally get away with it. Red-haired and overweight people. Shouldn't be allowed outside/to reproduce/to live. Just a bit of a laugh though, isn't it? Can't you take a joke, eh?

Eh? You can't mock fat people, it's called fat shaming. I'd say baldness is seemingly for more fair game for a pisstake, which is a bit unfair considering it's something you have no control over.

I don't really get the single "gingers are ugly" insult thing. I'm just gonna drop it here in case there was any doubt - generally speaking, any colour of chin bumfluff is unappealing to me. Each to their own and stuff. I don't have a serious vendetta against Ed Sheeran and I don't seriously wish him any ill will. As far as I'm concerned anyone I fancy/am a fan of is fair game for someone else to not see the appeal of if they see fit. I bet Ed Sheeran has a bunch of people where he thinks "I just don't get it". It annoys me that people can't have an opinion about a famous person's public persona/art without being seen as simply throwing shade. I even acknowledged that his work and his image must be working for many people.

I feel like with this whole thing about him getting homeless railings put up, they're just doing the usual thing of drawing attention to any slight hypocrisy and making a story about it.

Quote"Everyone's saying Ed Sheeran was homeless - I never said that in the book.

"I went without a bed for some nights, that's it. It's just that I didn't have a place to stay [those nights], so I slept on the Central Line and outside Buckingham Palace."

What a dumbass. He doesn't even know what homeless means.

Skinny people are more fair game than fat people.

You can't mock bald people these days.
That's because they're not, technically, people.

Jockice

I stand by what I said. Bald people and skinny people may get stick but they don't get the absolute repulsion that redheads and the overweight seem to elicit from some. Or if they do I've never heard it. And I do know several bald and skinny people I'll have you know.

Look at that bald/skinny bastard, they shouldn't be allowed to leave their homes/breed/exist. Let's all gang up on them and make them feel like shit. Hmm.

Sheeran's popularity baffles me - how can someone whose music is so bland be so incredibly huge? - but is demonstrably not a cunt, as proven by his consistently relaxed and affable nature in every interview and public appearance I've seen, and also by the latter part of this very misleading article.

Aye he doesn't seem like a bad egg to be fair. Neither here nor there. Just a guy.

See also Adele. She's a reasonable enough singer-songwriter if you like that sort of thing and doesn't seem to be a terrible person, but I can't understand why she is so successful.

With Adele, she has a strong, very distinctive voice, and writes songs that apparently people like, and identify with, so they buy her albums by the ton.
According to my wife and nieces, she has a way of endearing herself to her audience, making them feel as if they're all working class girls and guys, having a mutually enjoyable time together.
Mr. Sheeran writes some songs that even I enjoy, although I wouldn't wait in line for a ticket to one of his gigs.
One of my nieces, drove from London to Glasgow, dropped her 3 y.o. at grandma's place, turned around and drove to Manchester to see Ed Sheeran, then drove back to Glasgow to pick her kid up, and a day later, drove back to London, now that's nuts IMO, but the guy's songs and style must have impressed her, and she's no dumbo, she's a university educated big wheel in IT.

I'll give you gingers but there's no way you can say "absolutely anything" horrible about overweight people and "get away with it", it's a pretty sensitive one especially recently. Bald/balding mockery is much more acceptable.

The balds are the most oppressed minority in the UK today. It's a disgrace.

What about phimosis sufferers?

Surely they are the real oppressed minority.

The fat-shaming outcry has only been very recent. I'd urge you to read the testimonies of some people who actually have been victimised and treated as subhumans because of their weight. And I can guarantee if three people, one ginger, one overweight and one bald got cornered by a bunch of yobs, the first two of them would get the vast majority of abuse. Not to say that bald blokes don't get stick. But I disagree totally that the amount they get is in any way comparable to redheads or the overweight. If you're bald (or indeed redhaired) you can disguise it but if you're big you have nowhere to hide.

It'll never ever EVER end. Whenever someone can't think of anything witty and original about a redhead the lazy ginger shit will make a special guest appearance,

Exactly. What the fuck does his hair colour have to do with anything ?!

Adele flew into a rage about paying tax on the four million quid she made from her uninspired whining. Anyone who thinks this is just wrong.

Ed Sheeran looks like an embarrassed sheep that has wondered into the wrong field. He looks like a substitute science teacher that has been filled with water. He's coloured his arms in because they were so pale. In his tramp-proof castle he is drinking peregrine falcon blood smoothies and laughing
