Oppressed by the evil UK,
May our thoughts and our prayers,
Be mingled with theirs,
I hope they taste freedom someday.

I had my phone snatched out of my hand the other week on the Luas. I reported it to the police and got a new phone. Obviously, yer man who took it showed off a bit with his mates and thanks to i-cloud I have photographic evidence (4 photos attached including above) of the fucker. Thought your readers might enjoy this beautiful bit of hubris. I sent them into the guards.
What You May Need To Know:
1. It’s the new movie from Sofia Coppola.
2. It’s based upon a true story.
3. It stars Emma ‘Harry Potter’ Watson (above centre).
4. Best YouTube comment: ‘Number of people who came to watch the trailer: 0. Number of people who came to watch Emma Watson: 817,934.’
5. Broadsheet Prognosis: Sure, she’s a one-hit wonder, and a one trick pony, but it’s a catchy hit, and a cool trick. We’re the only people who liked Somewhere (2012).
