Sam Duncombe Indeed :) It's liberating almost, the world really is everyones and all these man made border restrictions are complete horseshit, made up by stupid religions and bullshit politics hundreds/thousands of years before I was born. You would have thought by now we were past all this "this is why I love being British" bullshit by sadly not. And on that note, this is why I love being a human :)

[@huambo]

Jingoism is dead. We're all just children of the same sun. Just specs on a little orb. Family, health and happiness is what matters. Literally nothing else matters. Proud to be British, Spanish, American, whatever. Not important. Let the rich play with politics. Family and friends. That's it.

To be fair, he didn’t specify what or which world cup. I’m sure we can invent some new sport and become reigning champions at it before the rest of the world catch up. Although, seriously, UK sport has got a bit better in recent years (England football the exception I’m led to believe)

***** He is a comedian.

[@LuisaPlantierMartins]

And if you were acting and did really well at your acting "job" I'd likely say excellent performance, about you!!! Look for the beauty in our Planet rather than the ugly, as you are doing here. Criticizing others that are only being positive is a waste of time that gets you nowhere really fast, and in this case, makes you look really cruel hearted with the whole cutting off his head thing. I wish you didn't have the "vegan" word in your name because you are giving vegans a bad name, the vegans I have ever known including myself, spread love and respect. And since you were once a "brilliant" actor, maybe instead of criticizing other actors, you might go and be brilliant again.... never too late to shine... and become a kind hearted person! CHEERS!

[@TWFLucky]

***** you are the biggest fucking idiot on the planet 'it's just acting everyone can do it' well actually its a profession that pays millions to its top acredited actors, no one gives a fuck if you did a tv advert because your mom needed the cash when you were a baby, this was an amazing performance one of which YOU nor many other actors could pull off.
