He's a cnut for sure, he's getting desperate for attention.
Is he still on TV pretending to be doing extreme survival stuff (while staying at 5 star hotels once filming is done for the day)?

Why the f**k are the Army doing this? They should be embarrassed.

I'm sorry, Jessie so-called J, but I should give toss about this why? www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4ng542yll3oWhat interest is this self-indulgent overdiagnosing to anyone? So, you're a bit of an odd fish, so what?

Queerly, I've just learned to play Price Tag for busking purposes. It's not really my sort of music but I like it anyway.

Weird thread for it, but a good question. Why is this news?

I rather liked Price Tag. The reason I chose this thread (although it could have gone on the BBC) is because this is another example of someone having a very comfortable life/background, and still trying to crack on that everything has been a struggle. These diagnoses are very self-serving and are more and more common, the richer and smugger the family is. It also comes across as a sort of humble brag: "look at me, I'm so fabulous and brave and successful despite all these terrible problems. Just think how much more brilliant I would have been if I hadn't been handicapped by x, y and z."
It's very drama school, but you can also see examples in other pampered posers e.g. Richard Branson, who is an odious twit.

Yeah, I could. You could do much the same.

This level of his-teria over nothing cannot be good for the blood pressure.

We can't all be fixated on other people's sex lives, made-up thought crimes and imagined victimhood.

I thought this was the most random post ever till I remembered she had a song called Price Tag. Why are you busking? Did the CoL crisis finally hit you. It's fun. Another string to the musical bow (there are two of us). Forces me out of the in a band with 4 others comfort zone. We busked right next to a Palestinian protest today. There were about 7 or 8 of them, all old white people except one younger Muzz. I except he's in Hamas and drew the short straw of being sent to Saffron Walden instead of Tower Hamlets or some Banlieue. Anyway, they were perfectly pleasant and didn't shout or say very much at all. We moved after 40 minutes or so- signs with genocide and child killers were killing the vibe a bit. There was also a small Uke protest on the other side of the square. They at least had some chicks.

Are you one of those high tech buskers that has a card machine?

We had a bucket today and also a QR code that allows people to pay with Google or Apple. I messed up linking to my bank account (you have to do via a third party) so got nowt from that. About 16 quid in cash. It's only the second time we've done it so not too bothered about making money yet. If we end up making a bit of pocket money then fine. We have had a couple of requests to do gigs which is another reason for doing it.

That "third party" thing bothers me. It reeks of money-laundering, which isn't your fault, natch.

I was in the barber's chair the other day, getting a trim and facial massage from my young Moroccan friend, when two distinctly sketchy Herberts came in and claimed Mo had made an appointment to have a card ready installed. They really didn't look legit and Mo gave them short shrift.

Mids has been cheating on his band mates? Paul Carrack is probably going to write a song about him.
