Le Freak, C'est Bleak: Graham Linehan Is Still a Transphobe

[phes]

He genuinely sounds deranged

GL's trousers look quite tidy from the top of the inseam down, almost as if having no break at the ankle was a sartorial choice.

Doyle's & bluejeans' are bunching up and look scruffy.

Guy at the back with the rictus grin is on his tiptoes

[wrec]

I realise he's replying to a dinosaur in bio person there but she got an IMO instead of a fuck off. Is he mellowing in his old age?

[wrec]

Probably all busy doing some early Christmas shopping

[sheddyian]

Is he sending these tweets while his brave comedy colleagues are performing on stage?

Come on Graham, one for all and all for one!

Perhaps his new act is to take to the stage and the audience gets to bathe in his glory as they watch him use twitter.

"I just told Dr Who to shut up and fuck off"
Audience hysterics
"There, my reply has peaked Tetley Tea, they won't be so trans friendly now."
Audience applauds
"A fictional character account has blocked me, but Oliophi has replied to them."

Graham.. Graham

wake up Graham

You're drooling on your phone.

"Anyone??? ... ... ... .. ... ... awww come on!!! There were three times that!!!"

[Mx Wrongs]

Cue 100 glincel reviews for an event with 50 people in the audience.

That's fucking desperate.

[Ferris]

If you accept "unleashed" as a synonym for "my family left me (because I've lost the plot)" then yes this seems entirely correct.

Also that website is all user created and full of all sorts of nasty things you would consider "un-pc". What is he even talking about saying it's 'captured'

[Better Midlands]

Hey guys, Matt Walsh isn't only good for the anti-trans stuff

[BennyHedgehog]

Probably all busy doing some early Christmas shopping

Hey guys, come on. This is serious. It's not just a comedy gig but an important stand against an imminent totalitarian future!

These types love making up things to get mad about.

[Kankurette]

Oh no, not African music! They might even play some Ethiopian jazz at you!

Hey guys, Matt Walsh isn't only good for the anti-trans stuff

But I thought you were against racism, Graham? You know, you making a point of saying that Badenoch is black? I mean, Di Angelo is a grifter but you know that's not the part Walsh cares about.

[dissolute ocelot]

He'll be sharing the hotel with The Irish Fork Suppliers Company, Nissan Ireland and the Butter Board.

Is that forklifts, or table forks, or the things Satan will use to prod Graham with?

Hey guys, come on. This is serious. It's not just a comedy gig but an important stand against an imminent totalitarian future!

Woah, I didn't know Ireland had ULEZ conspiracy theorists. Is the night of African music included in the 27 Euros?

There was an elderly nutter who used to write this sort of thing and post it to the local paper when I was a kid. It was the only reason to bother reading the Winchester Extra as far as I was concerned.

[dontpaintyourteeth]

as a teetotal music nerd a night of non-alcoholic beer and African music sounds alright tbh

[idunnosomename]

Traditional African music

This Soye guy is good value

[Stinky Lomax]

Yeah, but vegan beer?! Nightmare!

Perfect that the website is one letter away from being called 'grift'.

[Kankurette]

Vegan beer is still alcoholic, I assume it just doesn't use fish gelatine as a thickener.

[BennyHedgehog]

Guiness is famously vegan for starters

my brother got it vegan, it's my claim to fame. He started a petition that got a lot of traction, Stephen Colbert started a counter-petition to 'put the fish guts back in Guinness', and then Diageo changed the recipe for the first time in forever. 

The fish parts / animal parts are typically to get the sediment out and 'clarify' the beer btw, they make the sediment clump together so you can get it out easier

A future where a bar plays some African folk music sounds great tbh. If I walked into a pub and they were playing Ali Farka Toure then I would be raving about how amazing this place was and how we need to come back again. I still remember hearing MF Doom (Supervillian theme) in a vegan restaurant in Shoreditch and thinking "damn this place is cool, I should move here, can't believe I am hearing MF Doom as the ambient restaurant music"

God, I HATE this shit. I'm vegan. About 60% of beers are vegan. They're the same price as the 'other' ones. We have an app to look it up on. It doesn't affect anyone else.

Also, if they're not vegan, then they're not vegetarian either. But 'vegetarian beer' doesn't have the Gotcha Wokies! aspect to it, does it?

Fucking culture wars. Over isinglass.

[Stinky Lomax]

Yeah, loads of beer is vegan, it's a ridiculous 'woke PC dystopia scenario' to posit. So fucking lazy as well - I googled it just to make sure I wasn't being a thicko, and that was just for the sake of a sarcastic forum post. Took ten seconds, and he couldn't be bothered before posting an article on a news site (albeit a right-wing rag where no one really cares if you're saying stupid shit).

A night with a Fela Kuti tribute act sounds pretty good.

imma just leave this right here, irony not a strong point of Linehan's





Why not cleanse your palate with some stunning Somali vocals by Sahra Halgan.

Such an odd post by Graham. It's as if he doesn't realise human rights movements can shift across time, narrowing in their focus as they identify deficiencies in the previous movement. LGB rights have obviously advanced in the West in recent decades, but I think most informed people would realise there's a lot of challenges still facing trans individuals.

Using Graham's logic, the first wave of feminism can say job done once they'd accomplished their goals (e.g., the right to vote). Any other subsequent wave of feminism would be just a stupid fad, the thick cunt.

[Mx Wrongs]

Such an odd post by Graham.

Graham posted it because Elon Musk posted it a couple of years back, while trying to be down with the 40 year old kids on 4chan.

There was no thought behind it, no rationale on Graham's part other than expressing "NPC" in a visual meme format.

[dontpaintyourteeth]

To be fair to Graham, someone needs to call these NPCs out for their repetitive phrases. Beards! Handmaidens!

[Shaxberd]

This is all just basic reactionary shit, innit?

Urgh, new things! Letting the new things exist is the same as being forced to partake in them!

It's a fear of becoming old and irrelevant, a fear that has already come to pass. The woke PC left don't need to force people to drink vegan beer and listen to world music, the spooky scary thing is that people might do it anyway and the people who want pub rock and a pintful of fish guts will have nowhere to go. Coexistence? But waaa, I don't want to coexist, I want everything to be for ME!
