Charlie Brooker is possibly the funniest writer in British newspaperdom. The first two paragraphs of his column
this week are just glorious. I defy anyone to read it and not laugh out loud. If you succeed in not laughing out loud, my bank manager will give you five pounds. And, as someone who's pin has in the past magically vanished from his head, I understand Charlie, I really do. For more Charlie Brooker gems, read his account of
trying to quit smoking.

"Finally the prick was done, and once I had waited for him to collect his tickets and his bloody receipt" must admit don't remember encountering that kind of language from the guardian before. But yeah the article was a good laugh your bank manager doesn't need to shell out for me...
It was funny but not laugh oout loud funny...five pounds please? And no excuses about forgotten PINs
Funny. I resisted but he had me at the "I've managed to fool myself within my own head" paragraph.
@UK: You're right. I read it and didn't even smile out loud. I smiled within my head but that was it. £5 please.
No, there is nothing wrong with my sense of humour thank you.
This guy's a hoot... Like Jeremy Clarkson but not so narrow minded.... Good thing there's an archive to go thru....
