The World's Most Rectally Troublesome Buildings.

Glancing through my notebook, and apparently I recently dreamt that Charlie Brooker knocked me out and stole my trousers. I don't remember this at all

I want your dreams. I haven't had a Brooker-related dream yet (that I can remember), which I find really unfair. How do you do it? How?

*jump-hugs you and cheers you on as always* ♥

But he's such a git in my dreams!

Although I did also dream recently that he was my university tutor. I somehow ended up on the floor of the seminar room, hugging his legs. THIS IS NOT APPROPRIATE SEMINAR CONDUCT, RIONA.

Also, I dreamt that David Mitchell tried to hit on me by waggling his eyebrows and using the irresistible chat-up line 'I've got stairs'. HE LIVES IN A FLAT. IT'S PROBABLY NOT EVEN TRUE.

And in another dream Brooker definitely insinuated that he wanted a blowjob from Mitchell, to which Mitchell responded, 'I am absolutely convinced that no-one wants to see that.' Oh, Mitchell, how little you know.

Yes, all right, I have some pretty awesome dreams.

And thank you for the cheering!

But being a git is precisely what one would want from Brooker!

(Your dreams are sort of absorbing the anonymeme. Wow.)

I've got stairs.

I vaguely remember from lazy stalking when I watched Who Do You Think You Are? that he has stairs outside his front door. Er. I'm not sure that actually counts as having stairs, never mind being a good excuse to use that as a chat-up line. Would you screw him on possibly non-existent stairs, Riona? Is that appealing to you?

But being a git is precisely what one would want from Brooker!

...that's actually an excellent point.

I've never found stairs especially erotic, but evidently Mitchell seemed to think I might.

[rionaleonhart]

That is an excellent dream! And, given that Charlie Brooker is so very like you, narcissistic in so many different ways.

My criminal career has been a fairly unimpressive one.

I am now in love with Charlie Brooker and that's all I've seen of him. That's all I need to see. His absolute outrage is one of the best things ever. xD

Oh also, on stealing plums: my friends and I were once on a band camp, then they proceeded to steal a bunch of plums and throw them at me. I'm not sure why I continued to be their friend. ;__; Especially considering they then went on to steal more, put them in the freezer in the cabin, and throw more goddamn plums at me, only these ones were much harder and therefore more painful. I was only twelve, what the hell.

Join ussss. Here is another rather wonderful clip of Brooker, if you'd like to see any more of him (the premise of the game, if you haven't seen any Would I Lie To You? before, is that one panellist reads out a fact about themselves and the others have to work out whether it's true or not).

My goodness! My friends at secondary school used to strangle me every day for no particular reason, though, so I'm not unfamiliar with slightly hazardous friendships. (We're still very good friends, but throttling is no longer involved, fortunately.)

[misskass]

Gosh, his hysterical shouting is sending me into a hysterical gigglefit. He's pretty amazing, I can now understand why you seem to base every one of your recent journal entries on him. xD

That's... that's odd, that is. Really for no particular reason? o__o

[rionaleonhart]

My friends putting their hands around my throat just became a sort of greeting, I think. I don't know why. It was odd. There was one alarming moment when a friend was strangling me for too long and I tried to stop her and found that, in my oxygen-deprived state, I had forgotten how to access my muscles and couldn't move or speak.

Feel free not to watch these if you're not interested - this is just in case you're curious; I don't want to impose - but here are a couple of rather fascinating Brooker clips from Screenwipe: on the amount of work that goes into producing television and on manipulative reality TV editing.

OH MY GOD I was only saying last night that the cardboard-licking party fill was like, one of my favourites, if not my favourite fill on the entire thing! Why is it so good, whyyyyy XDD (I snorted in public rather too much during that Newswipe coverage one, too, it was quite embarrassing!)

OMG I DIDN'T REALISE THERE WAS A SECOND UNBELIEVABLE TRUTH EPISODE! EXCITEMENT!!!

Eeee good luck with your work~ that is VERY good progress you've got thar. <3

[rionaleonhart]

I have no idea why the cardboard-licking party fill works so well, but it is amazing. Poor boys!

Enjoy the Unbelievable Truth episode! I hope they keep in all the bickering between Mitchell and Brooker from the recording; there was a great deal of it.

Thank you!

[rionaleonhart]

Fantastic! I'm looking forward to reading about it; thank you! Don't feel you have to take notes at the recording itself if you'd rather devote your full attention to what's going on, though; I'd be happy with any recollections afterwards.
