I can see him claiming to be better than Jesus, but better than Lennon? That goes too far. Heresy! Blasphemy! ---

Wait are people saying doctors _don’t_ dress like that? So, when I was in hospital, and a man walked in wearing holy robes and with bright lights emanating from his hands and visage, I _shouldn’t_ have told him I was constipated? ---

**Ex-Leper:** Okay, sir, my final offer: half a shekel for an old ex-leper? **Brian:** Did you say “ex-leper”? **E-L:** That’s right, sir, 16 years behind a veil and proud of it, sir. **B:** Well, what happened? **E-L:** Oh, cured, sir. **B:** Cured? **E-L:** Yes sir, bloody miracle, sir. Bless you! **B:** Who cured you? **E-L:** Jesus did, sir. I was hopping along, minding my own business, all of a sudden, up he comes, cures me! One minute I’m a leper with a trade, next minute my livelihood’s gone. Not so much as a by-your-leave! “You’re cured, mate.” Bloody do-gooder. _Brian gives him a coin._ **E-L:** Half a dinare for me bloody life story? **B:** There’s no pleasing some people. **E-L:** That’s just what Jesus said, sir! ---

If it was Trump I think the answer here is… your wallet? I would be embarrassed too especially if after all of that monetary loss I didn’t get better. `//i\\` ---

In an unrelated side show the ending of David Squires’ weekly football cartoon in _the Guardian_ is epic today: > **[David Squires on … the TikTok of the clock as Arsenal’s title charge falters](https://www.theguardian.com/football/picture/2026/apr/14/david-squires-on-the-tiktok-of-the-clock-as-arsenal-title-charge-falters)** > > Our cartoonist on the Gunners’ latest wobble and who could be brought in to get final push back on track Some people are born to be pictured as the quintessence of jinxing bad omens. When you’re on a run everything falls to pieces. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving bag of shit. ---

Let me explain… no, it’s too much, let me sum up. Arsenal FC is famous for bottling championships it should by rights win, Arsenal is close to winning the Premier League, the cartoonist suggests that Vance will visit them, jinxing them and resulting on Arsenal once again bottling. ---

It’s not a sport, is far more important than that, it’s Football (soccer). The Premier League is the top English football league. ---

> [@Tatterdemalion](#): > > That too is an interesting question. The fact that he used to have better filters on his impulses suggests that he did once have some greater awareness of right and wrong than he does currently. Disagree. I don’t think his “awareness of right and wrong” has changed; I think he has realized that people don’t care. He never “edited” because he knew something was wrong - he did it because the public would act negatively. He now knows that there is nothing that can touch him. ---

> [@Briny\_Deep](#): > > Next: I am greater than Christ: show Christ bowing down to him perhaps? Then: I have defeated Christ: show him trampling the Lord, or defiling him otherwise, or perhaps defeating him militarily. Jesus Christ is WEAK on crime and terrible for Foreign Policy. Not many people know this, but that crazy bastard goes around forgiving everybody, including murderers, drug dealers, and killers, instead of kicking ass and destroying entire civilizations. He was never even elected to any office, unlike me, who won in a LANDSLIDE. He’s probably an Obama Sympathizer! ---

I have just learned that Jesus Christ was actually _arrested_ at one point. Are we supposed to trust some ex-con who clearly has no respect for our great law enforcement officers? ---

Don’t forget he spent _weeks_ tripping his balls out in the desert and talking to Satan. You can’t trust a guy like that. I don’t know Satan. Never met him before.
