The new album is the shittest thing I have heard for a long time.

I reckon he could be a good geezer for beer/pie/football but I'm not into the tunes at all Jon, poet he is not and (another thing) has he got worse as he's gone on or is that just me?

I liked the first two albums, but what has really fucked it up for him is:
1) Singing - and all the "rock" rigmarole like being backed by a choir on the Jonathan Ross show
2) Moving away from observational stuff and story-telling into vapid philosophising about the world and generic shite.
Just playing the major label game, I guess - victim of his own success?

But once you get money you're fucked in his game, didn't he even sing about that? Not many people can relate to that

The fact that if you draw a Christmas tree that looks like what they actually look like:
(shown here sans decorations for illustrative purposes), it nonetheless doesn't look like a Christmas tree, because 'everyone knows' Christmas trees look like this:
which is actually a stylised cartoon of this sort of tree:
which has branches that hang down, instead of pointing up!
Maybe it's all in the weight of snow on the branches?

Last night I saw the worst example of apostrophe abuse I've ever seen - it was a total apastrophe, in fact - on a board outside a pub, titled "TAPA'S MENU". I can only hope the chef was called Tapa, but the (no double hideously mangled) Spanish words below it hinted otherwise.
My favourite is when cafes put signs up advertising "TEA" and "COFFEE" or whatever in inverted commas. As if it's not really tea, but actually some kind of dodgy artificial substitute.

I had this teacher at sixth-form college who used to indulge this dystopian fantasy in which people were farmed underground by gnomes and all the products we consumed were made of people in some way.
In this bizarre world, tea was the ground-up bones of people.
So be careful in those caffs.
