It Turns Out To Just Be A Vessel For Hoon.

Today, on the telephone:

Riona's Brother: Has Dad voted yet?
Riona: Er, I don't know.
Riona's Brother: When he gets home, if he hasn't voted, maybe you could... break his ankles

This is brilliant.

Only half-related to this post (the Pokemon half): I have decided Matt Smith's Pokemon to be a Furret. No argument on this. (I SHOULD GET A POKEMON ICON. I can't keep using my Digimon icon in these situations.)

I was still forgetting Tony Blair was no longer Prime Minister a year and a half after Brown succeeded him

Completely the same here.

I don't live in the UK, and therefore there's not really an expectation for me to remember, but it took me ages to get it into my head that it was Gordon Brown and no longer Tony Blair. This is clearly a widespread thing.

No argument you shall have! There is definitely something very Smithlike about a Furret.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one completely incapable of remembering who the Prime Minister was.

No longer Prime Minister? Oh, wait... yeah... he's not is he... >.>

Since Taillow are Richard Hammond, I'm now expecting Clegg to go 'I CHOOSE YOU, RICHARD HAMMOND. USE YOUR BLINDING SMILE ATTACK'.

If only I could use the Pokemon method to figure out who the hell I'm going to vote for in about a month's time. We have quite a list of choices here and I DON'T KNOW.

See, I'd read up on the election more seriously if the different candidates were all using different Top Gear presenters as Pokemon.

Well, if the Conservative guy will dress up as the Stig for Clarkson's birthday party...

Maybe he was trying to catch a Stig, but couldn't get one into his Pokeball, so he had to catch a Clarkson instead?
