    It was many years ago when I lived at Millhouse Green. A family there did not have a TV, but their two sons asked if they could come round and watch England matches during Euro 1996. We didn't mind this, but after the tournament finished they still kept asking, then their parents asked too. We let them in a few times but eventually we told them to buy their own TV. The reply was that it wasn't worth it as there was hardly anything worth watching!

    Danny wilson had a shocker 2nd time round his football bored me to tears especially away games. We were going no where under him and he showed no signs of turning it round. Glad I got that off my chest.

    Using that interpretation, my most controversial view was through a hole between the boys and girls changing rooms at Scout Dike camp outdoor pool when I was about 11.

    Racist should be suffocated.
    People who visit foreign countries and don't at least attempt to learn the language should have their passports revoked.
    People who feel the need to attention seek on the internet to a load of strangers probably had a damaging childhood.
    Anyone who uses "loves my kids" "ten pints" or "barnsley fc" as their middle name on Facebook should be banned, same with people who constantly post how much they love their friends.

    Mothers who wish each other a Happy Fathers day. It's a day for Fathers to celebrate, not for you to try and act all high and mighty because you let some waster impregnate you.

    Yeah, I'm more or less convinced of this, to be honest. If you accept the assumptions behind it, the chances of anything else being the case are minuscule. The best part about it is that it actually gives us the possibility of some sort of afterlife.

    I also quite like the related theory that one person in the world is being controlled and the rest of us are just npcs.

    People that spend years married to someone of the other sex and have kids then come out as gay years laters should be treated with contempt.

    The grief tourism/virtue signalling that started with Diana needs to stop. People who post "thoughts and prayers are with [x]" on Facebook are most often just trying to draw attention to themselves.

    A Facebook status is worth fvck all. If you are really that upset then quietly donate to a fund for the victims.

    Social media has inflated the individuals sense of 'self' to such levels that we are breading a generation of 'celebrities' that genuinely believe in their own importance in the world.

    I dislike Queen intensely. Never got the fuss. Ditto for Led Zeppelin and Nirvana.
