hurt atheist people
I'm a militant fundamentalist atheist. I'm going to get on a crowded train, unbutton my coat and say rational things. People will be hurt.
people atheism beard
I love how people walk around with crucifixes, skullcaps, pointy hats, funny beards and then say 'you should keep your atheism to yourself.'
queens sorry hate
I feel sorry for people in power. I feel sorry for the Queen, in a way, that she hasn't had a normal life. It'd difficult for me to hate anyone. Immediately someone's unpopular, I feel sorry for them.
years cheese eating
My physique is down to 20 years of eating cheese.
religious atheist feelings
I'm basically a 'do unto others' type person. I don't have any religious feelings because I'm an atheist, but I live my life like there's a God. And if there was he'd probably love me.
people fiction television
Fact is stranger than fiction. You see people walking down the street that would never be allowed on television. You have to tone it down.
jobs growing-up laughing
Growing up, the most important thing, after taking care of your family and getting a decent job of work, was having a laugh. That was the point to life.
people religion atheism
We shouldn't even need the word 'atheism'. If people didn't invent ridiculous imaginary gods, rational people wouldn't have to deny them.
come-up best-things ifs
If David Brent is the best thing that I ever come up with, then so be it. What are you supposed to do, time the best thing you do for just before you die?
animal cosmetics ugly
Wearing cosmetics that were tested on animals makes you ugly on the inside
years cosmetics faces
Just looking at all the faces here reminds me of some of the great work that was done this year . . . by cosmetic surgeons.
house-of-cards years bridges
My favourite shows of the year are House of Cards, the Scandinavian versions of The Killing and The Bridge, and my guilty pleasure is everything MMA. Ultimate Fighter is amazing.
humor used knows
A joke isn't yours. It's used and you don't know where it's been.
death suicide cat
Someone asked me what three things I would save if my house was on fire. I said my cat, my salamander and one of the twins.
