I get it, you're a dick. You don't need to spend 240 pages telling me you're a dick.

Cinfhen Oh no! Like @emilyhaldi says "douche chills" 7y

arlenefinnigan @Cinfhen @emilyhaldi hehehe. "Where are all the beautiful women?" Probably hiding from you, you lecherous prick. 7y

Cinfhen It needs to live on @emilyhaldi such a good phrase😊 7y

#DidntLikeItStillFinished #MarchIntoReading
Read this for the #ReadHarder challenge, under pressure to finish with a week of the year left. P.J. O'Rourke is one of my husband's favourite writers and now I understand a little better why my husband is such a dick.

pan

I don't know what was better:the snarky superior tone,the incessant namecalling,'joking' that more people could die at a soccer match than in the Panama war,or 'joking' that a homelessness campaigner "has an eternal home now,and a warm one at that" after he killed himself.

That's my 2016 #ReadHarder challenge complete. I've earned the champagne I'll be opening later.

Hollie This guy must be a complete douche 8y

geodynamical_nonfiction 🖕😎 great review 8y

What a dickhead.

MicheleinPhilly I've seen this guy a few times on Real Time with Bill Maher and every time I end up 🙄. He's such a tool. 8y

arlenefinnigan @MicheleinPhilly my husband thinks he's hilarious. I accidentally married an arsehole. 8y

rockpools Urgh. I'm impressed you're keeping going. 8y

arlenefinnigan @RachelO sheer stubbornness and desperation to complete the 2016 Read Harder challenge. Can't wait to finish it and get stuck into The Vegetarian. 8y

rockpools @arlenefinnigan Well I'm cheering you on - can't let him defeat you! Good luck! 8y

arlenefinnigan @RachelO ✊😉 8y

Joybishoptx He makes a living at being a dick. He's so full of it. There is no telling what he sincerely thinks or believes. Don't get me ranting on him! 8y

arlenefinnigan @Joybishoptx his 'joke' about so few people being killed in the war in Panama that "there are places in this world where you can't hold a soccer match with so few casualties' was disgusting. The book was published in 1991 so I'm pretty sure it's a reference to the 1989 Hillsborough disaster. Not fucking funny. 8y

Joybishoptx @arlenefinnigan Yeah I pretty much loathe him with the heat of a thousand suns. I'm impressed you're getting through it. 8y

I'm guessing IRA stands for something else in the USA. 🍀 #TiochfadhArLa

arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall I'm in a very Fenian mood today 😉 8y

DeborahSmall @arlenefinnigan lmao 😂 #Fenian a sore point with me this week. My son goes to a 'mixed' Grammar school where we live. Last week kids at the college school nearby that know he went to a catholic primary school followed him halfway way home shouting 'fenian' my oldest son obviously wasn't about. Drives me mad 😵 8y

arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall yeah, when I was 16 a schoolfriend was going out with a 25 yr old soldier (totally healthy and appropriate) and he called me a "fucking Fenian bitch" first time I met him cos I was wearing a Celtic shirt. Nice lad. 8y

DeborahSmall @arlenefinnigan where do you live? I'm from Glasgow but I've lived in Ireland for 22 years (the north part of the island) 🍀💚 8y

arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall live in Oldham now but grew up in Liverpool. Whereabouts in Norn Iron? My mother-in-law's from Maghera in Co Derry. 8y

DeborahSmall @arlenefinnigan I'm in carrickfergus. My sister lived in Derry for 5 years. She split up with her wife this time last year and moved back to Glasgow 😩. My husband played for Cliftonville then managed carrick rangers so I've been in every town over the country. Carrick is a nice town but still a lot of bigotry. My husband was the first catholic to manage carrick rangers, 10 years ago. He was there 5/6 seasons 8y

arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall 👍Jude Winchester, twin brother of our (Oldham Athletic) beloved Carl, plays for Cliftonville. 8y

DeborahSmall My husband works with the manager and is named analyst for the team but he hasn't done much for them this season as he has being doing more radio. The Reds are our team always in my heart ❤️. He played for them on and off 20 years 11 full years before retiring to Larne for last year. He's a Cliftonville legend, being part of the '97/'98 league winning team. (edited) 8y

arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall well that's pretty cool! 8y

DeborahSmall @arlenefinnigan I just asked Stephen about Jude and his first reaction was 'what has he done' lol. The Reds have been in the paper a lot for all sorts. He thought another rumour was circulating!! 8y

arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall hehehehe 8y

arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall sounds familiar 😉 8y

DeborahSmall Have a lovely Christmas and Hopefully Oldham get a result against Sheffield on Monday x 8y

arlenefinnigan @DeborahSmall you too. Good luck to Cliftonville in the derby. All the best x 8y

DeborahSmall Lovely chatting💞 my daughter plays for crusaders lol so she said she was going to the match with her kit on 😂. I'm taking her to the cinema, so the boys are safe 😉 8y

#ReadHarder challenge 23 : a book about politics. Borrowed from my husband's libertarian bookshelf. Well it is supposed to be a challenge.

The college idealists who fill the ranks of the environmental movement seem willing to do absolutely anything to save the biosphere, except take science courses and learn something about it.
