Humble Pie

[commonpeople1]

Stephen Fry has posted a long explanation on his website about the whole kerfuffle involving his "comments" on women not enjoying sex. The first thought I had when I read it? "How 2003 Livejournal of him!" Doesn't it remind you of one of those posts people used to write on LJ after they'd been caught in a flamewar where they shoved both feet in their mouth? Woe is me, woe is me, but wait oh I'd never say such a thing and look how silly I am and this is what I mean, and I'm going to delete my journal if you don't believe in me. I glimpsed a shard of megalomania beneath his response's Wildean pastiche which makes me want to Tweet to him: "follow Mozzer's example and be quiet".

On a separate note, it will be a miracle if Katie survives X Factor this weekend. Contestants are singing "American Anthems"; I had a look at some of the chosen songs and it's going to be a boring show.
