Had a slight frisson earlier today when, for a second, I thought Phil Jarvis had bought a hat, grown a moustache, gone into politics and died.

Ha nice. I was shown a similar one recently but can't remember the name of the film/actor.

Also just noticed Brett Anderson/Paul Anderson - even the name checks out.

I can't be the only one who has watched the Dahmer miniseries and thought Jeffrey Dahmer's dad looks like Richard Whiteley.

Also DAHMER is an anagram of HARMED. This was literally the first thought I had when it came up on my feed the first time.
I'm not dead yet. In a rut right now because of stress from work. I'll be back later in S89. I also plan to bring back the Mastergram - if I can find a way to run a timer or clock through pure MediaWiki without having to upload to Vimeo every time.

Is Cillian Murphy the guy who lost to Ronan in the final? Cos he's changed a lot if so.
