BBC interviews news editor regarding the Apple/Beatles verdict. Only one problem: the gentleman in the hotseat was the news editor's driver. Hilarity ensues.

When you have had 24 of your closest friend die of BBC interview related accidents, then, you can begin laughing at things like this.

As amusing as your latest, "When you have had X of your closest friend die of Y related accidents, then, you can begin Zing things like this." post format is, I'm intrigued as to where it comes from. Did someone try to win an argument citing dead friends and you're now taking the piss?
It's a gash way of (trying to) winning arguments, effectively trying to rely on the tabboo nature of not being bothered by other people's grief; my usual response is, "Well, if you lost x number for friends to y, you're the last person who should be commenting on it. There's no way that you'll be able to be dispassionate and logical about it."
My other one is, "Just because you lot are Godless cowards who think death is the end, don't impose your fixation with unneccesarily prolonging your worthless lives upon me."

I reckon it's something along the lines of:
News Editor: "Christ I'm hungover... I can't face this interview." *turns to driver* "Oi, Timbo, do you know what mp3s are?"
Driver: "Yessir, me daughter has them on her walkman, with her friends."
News Editor: "Excellent, put your jacket on, I just need you to come into the building to give me a hand with something..."

I always knew there was something dodgy about that Ceri JC. If you look closely at his avatar, you can just make out a black guy getting lynched.

I'm not. :)
Incidentally, did felch_hicks actually watch the clip and listen to how the bloke spoke? It's not like I've suggested a man with elocution to shame the queen who happens to be black talks like a sugar cane plantation worker...

Yeah, I know it's pretty complex: I was accused of racism, I joked that I was racist, rather than deigning to defend against the accusation. Then, when there was some confusion as to whether I was joking, I clarified that I had been.
Apology accepted.
As an aside, my constituancy is currently without a race-relations officer (he was sacked after being charged with sexual harrasment for being a peeping tom), so the BNP could well sneak in.

They got a seat in my constituency. Although its disgusting, you have to laugh eventually - the bloke is a joke, he's got a huge handlebar moustache, I bet he eats union jacks for breakfast. He wont have a clue.
Although lets not fuck up redrums fine thread with politics.

That moment of, "Oh fuck. Too late to say anything now, best just go along with it..."
It did provide a useful insight into the way newsreaders "lead" people they're interviewing, "Yes, that seems to be the main thing about x" and then proceed to recite a pre-written script. It's almost as if you get the credibility of having an "expert" (bad choice in this case, ho ho ho), but you get to "explain" what they mean to the average viewer.

Sorry?!
How on earth did you manage to misinterpret:
Me: "Unfortunately, we didn't have a BNP candidate in my
constituancy."
You: "you cannot be serious?"
Me: "I'm not. :)"
As
Me: "Unfortunately, we didn't have a BNP candidate in my
constituancy."
You: "you cannot be serious?"
Me: "I am: I'm a complete bigot and all Britain's problems are the direct result of us letting foreigners in. I think the BNP will save the country."
I don't mean to be rude, but are you taking the piss?
