"Look at him now.  He's alcoholic _and_ racist."

also

"The naivety of Al Quaeda - trying to bring religious violence to Glasgow."

I don't get the reference. Clue an American in?

[andrewducker]

Glasgow is rife with sectarian "fun". Catholics vs Protestants.

I don't know how it is for racism nowadays, to be fair, but there's a large foreign population so I strongly suspect that at the least there _used_ to be a lot of problems with it.

"Is you a Protestant Muslim or a Catholic Muslim?"

[girl-onthego.livejournal.com]

HAHA. For some reason I hear Ali G saying that in my brain.

Love it.

[andrewducker]

Yes.

Sadly all downhill from there.

Yep, I spotted the Frankie Boyle, he's done them on Mock the Week as well, but I assume it was the repeat of Live at the Apollo ...

... flicking around the channels I caught sight of a pretty girl in an audience, and, sadly, from that one shot, knew it was Live at the Apollo and which episode ...

BWAHAHAHA!!!

Who was this? sorry, read fail.

[andrewducker]

Apparently Frankie Boyle.

Dara O'Brien ws the host, and was much funnier.

Yay for frankie boyle

I have to say I enjoy him much more once he's tried out all his scottish jokes at the Stand and just uses two or three zingers a week later.

Does he have a twitter account?
