Brilliant, as ever.

That’s very good, I quite like that. I particularly like the emphasis on the point that sex with aliens has always been perfectly acceptable in sci-fi but sex with gay aliens is complaint material. Excellent.

Genius

Love it, especially his description of C3P0

I bet those people complaining are really looking foward to GTA V. Time get some a van load of writing paper and some new pens…

“It has no physical form, so you can’t get a grip on it, much as you’d like to. You’d love to grab it and throttle it until it splutters its last. That might bring you closure.”

Quality article as always from Mr Brooker.

He earned his fee for that statement alone!

when he’s on form Charlie’s top quality 😆

superb and some great lines in there and he makes a great point

Personal choice and co-operation: two appalling threats to our youth.

some of the best ones are allready used above
