Twitter

Twitter, whats the point?
I hold my hand up and will admit until yesterday I was a "Twitterer", I followed the mind numbingly boring tweets of a host of people celebs and non celebs anxious to share every banal moment of their sad pointless lives.

Stephen Fry was recently very upset when someone had the afront and gall to call his tweets boring, the poor sweet luvie went into a deep depression had a sob and carried on tweeting.
Piers Morgan , aman I love to hate had a pop at Fry in this weeks mail on Sunday:

Fry spends all day posting unutterably tedious messages to the world's Twits about himself, then bleats like a baby when one of them has the gall to point out what the rest of us can read with our own eyes - he's just bloody boring.

By way of evidence, may I present some of his thrilling entries in the past week:

1) 'Walks into town. Goes to gym. Has nice lunch. Meetings. More meetings. Book launch. Goes home.'

2) 'Hurrah for curry.'

3) 'Phew. Too tired to Tweet.'

4) 'Home before midnight which I account something of a triumph.'

Boring? This is mind-numbing tedium of almost epic proportions.

If his former co-star was assessing him in his role as the brilliantly acerbic TV doctor Gregory House, he'd surely conclude: 'This man is suffering from Acute Pseudo Intellectual Superiority and Overbearing Pomposity Syndrome. I recommend a prolonged course of public silence.'


SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1

Fry's back on Twitter. As the world reels from war, famine, pestilence and financial carnage, he declares: 'Wasn't the fault of the fellow who called me " boring", BTW. A mood thing. Sunshine will help.'

I look for some glimmer of self-awareness, some slither of humour or irony from Britain's supposedly smartest, funniest man, but comes there none.


WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4

Fry's subsequent Tweets have so far included:

1) 'A warm and sunny day. Highly cheering.'

2) 'Mm. Huevos rancheros. Best. Breakfast. Ever.'

3) 'Gymmed and breakfasted, and it's already 10.30.'

I'm not on Twitter, because nobody over the age of six should be doing such an infantile thing, but I do have one Tweet that Mr Fry can have for nothing:

'Please. God. Man. Grow. Up. And. Shut. Up.'



I couldnt agree more!, Fry now says he is off to America to live - Hooray! put out the flags.

On the subject of Celebs leaving these shore I see that former "Motor Mouth" and failing comic Ben Elton is going down under, but not without a parting shot at The Queen and her family in a desperate, sad bid to remain in the spotlight and flog his latest book.
Ben used to be funny, now he is a boring, sad old git who resorts to desperate things to get his enourmous ego pandered to.

So back on to Twitter  - Fry has over a million "followers" why, for Gods sake why? have these people got nothing better to do? Then my wife who sees things as they are explained it to me.
These people seek adulation, fame, to be wanted to be loved, Celebs cannot bear to be out of the publics eye, the ironic thing is that if Fry and others had stalkers they would be complaining! but they are quite happy to let thousands if not millions follow their every move and thought.
Rachel Elnaugh "ex Dragons Den" star as she is always so fond of pointing out is the only woman I know that has made a career out of Failure!, A failed business and thrown off the Den, but hey you cant keep her down, shes Twittering away.


 

Lawlessness

 Last Saturday I had to go to Dover on business, I parked outside the block of flats where I had a meeting with the client and rang there door bell, as I stood there this guy approached me who I assumed lived in the block and asked if I was ok. I replied yes thanks, he then asked if I smoked, I said no, so he walked off.
I did not feel threatened or intimated in any way, he was quietly spoken and seemed non threaterning.
As I could not get a signal on my Blackberry I went to the end of the road to try and improve it, I noticed the guy walking up the hill, he turned round and began walking towards me, I didnt think anything of it as I went back towards the flat.
He came up to me and his whole demeanour changed, he said "what are you looking at mate? are you fucking looking at me", I replied quite calmly "No, I was trying to get a signal on my phone look" and held up the phone for him to see. He then said "It doesnt work like that mate and took a swing at my head with either an umbrella or tent pole, I could not be sure of which as I instinctly ducked to avoid contact. At that time someone came out of the door and he walked off up the hill towards Dover castle. I was shaken and tried to dial 999 but just got a continuous tone even though my phone showed a full five bar signal (Orange useless).
I got into my car still very shaken and drove around the one way system to the top of Dover hill and got hold of the Police, I gave them a full description of what had happened and they said if a car was in the area they would send it out!.
I drove back down the hill and passed the complete stranger who was walking up the hill, probably to join the A2 to thumb a lift.
I again called the Police this time with a better description as I slowed down for a better look, I said if you send a car out now  he is in front of me, nothing.
Four hours later the Police called me to ask the same details as I had already given twice, I asked has he been picked up? No reply, have you arrested him? no.
I questioned what the point was of me giving a detailed description twice if no body is even going to come out, if he had knifed me would you have come out then? I explained I was concerned that a complete stranger thought he had the right to use threatening and abusive behaviour on a stranger and nothing was done about it. The Police said he might just be a nutter, Oh thats ok then.
I now have no respect or trust for the Police and feel badly let down by those that are supposed to protect us, the guy has probably thumbed a lift to the next town and will probably do it to someone else safe in the knowledge the Police and the Law will do fuck all about it until he seriously injures or kills someone.
If it happened again what would I do? not contact the police and take care of it myself, we are turning into a Lawless society where thugs laugh at us and the Police do nothing, they have better things to do like issue speeding tickets and fines. I am all the more pissed of because last year my stepson who used to work in the Co-Op refuced someone alcohol who looked underage and was promptly assulted, he fought back in self defence. Result the Police called to our house issued HIM a formal warning took a DNA swab and he is now on a database a VICTIM of crime not a fucking instigator.
Only this week my autistic step son was issued with a warning for smoking in a public place by the police, Whats the point I ask?
With the new Michael Caine film "Harry Brown" about vigilante justice just out, and the Gerald Butler film "Law Abiding Citizen"  out shortly, I believe in certain cases its the only way.
