Just Don’t Come Back

Here’s a trend that I’m completely behind:

Ellen DeGeneres and her wife Portia de Rossi made a quick exit after Trump’s election victory and vowed to never return.

Ryan Gosling and his wife Eva Mendes also made the move alongside America Ferrera, who fled the US in search of the ‘best opportunities’ for her children in the UK.

Courtney Love and Minnie Driver have also made the move across the Atlantic since the election last year. [Driver is a Brit, so she doesn’t count.]

And of course there’s Rosie O’Donnell, who ended up in Northern Ireland.

The latest?

George Lucas has bought a huge £40 million mansion in London, joining a number of American liberal celebrities fleeing the US.

In what is likely to be one of the biggest residential buys in the UK this year, the Star Wars creator is set to move to St John’s Wood.

Yeah well fuck ’em all.  The more of these assholes who GTFO, the purer the air Over Here becomes.

What’s going to be really interesting is when these “Trump refugees” come face to face with Britishland’s problems:  skyrocketing crime, illegal immigrant flooding and, should they stay there long enough, HM’s voracious taxes.

Have fun Over There, assholes, and good bloody riddance.

Rant Of The Day

“You guys all voted for Karen Bass, the mayor of Los Angeles. You all voted for Gavin Newsom, and now you fucking get what you get, now that your house is on fire.

“So here’s what’s going to happen. All these people who are deep blue Democrats are now going to have to pull a permit to rebuild, and they’re going to get the 28 year old bitch from the Coastal Commission telling them to go fuck off and then they’re going to vote for Trump or whoever’s Trumpian next. When they start getting the regulation, they’re going to go nuts. And when they start running into the bureaucracy and the red tape, they’re going to start going nuts and they’re going to vote for Rick Caruso next time. They’re going to find out they’re going to get bit by their own snake. They’re going to convert.

“I am telling you, these are the bluest people on the planet and they’re going to be fucking rip shit pissed when the City and the Coastal Commission tell them to fuck off. We’re going to have to restructure the whole thing because we can’t have nine angry lesbians controlling everything that goes on in Malibu, the Palisades and Santa Monica.” — Adam Corolla

He had me at “nine angry lesbians”.

Asking The Question

Here’s another one that needs answering:

Okay, regardless of who these people are (most Murkins have no idea, which is not important), here are the the dramatis personae.

Holly Willoughby (no stranger to these pages, of course)

Alison Hammond (another Brit TV personality, and owner of the Most Irritating Voice On TV)

Ignoring what was said — trust me, it probably wasn’t that bad, it’s Brit TV — my question is:  how would one tell if the latter was blushing?

Over Till Next Year

Thank goodness that Halloween is over and we can go back to a streaming movie schedule which doesn’t feature wall-to-wall horror movies, nor be greeted by foul Halloween decorations at every turn.

Of the loathsome pumpkins, we will not speak.

Also — and I must issue a stern Puke Alert here — we are also spared the appearances of celebrities and harlots (considerable overlap) in “fancy dress” costumes, an example of which can be found below the fold:

Much Ado

So people are getting bent out of shape yet again by a sequel to an already-shitty movie about cartoon characters?

Oy.  Talk about a typhoon in a teacup.

And “folie à deux”?  (shared lunacy or psychosis, e.g. the Climate Apocalypticals)  Adding a pretentious title to what appears to be an abysmally bad movie is not gonna help the box-office receipts grow any larger, folks.

Fucking morons.  I hope Hollywood crashes and burns, along with most of its denizens.
