NS&I: give them your fucking money

Bob Geldof is striding towards you with such steely purpose that his thunderous footsteps are echoing around the room. I mean, Jesus Christ, this is the man behind Live Aid; he didn't make this much drama when he was saving Africa. What the hell is he going to say?



What?

Greer? What?

Hawking? What?

So you sit there, a little transfixed, because no, you don't really expect an activist, a feminist and a theoretical cosmologist to flog you a savings account (Alan Sugar, on the other hand, has probably been whoring himself out for years). So well done, guys. Credibility is cashed in. Balance now zero.

Thanks to Sammy via Amy!

  2. He shaves his chest in "The Wall" and slices his nipple pretty good.

    I was thinking maybe this would be a F4J thing, since he's been pretty active in that, and at least it warrants the drama. But no, a savings account. Greer, Hawking and Geldoff.

    As he said before that huge charity concert back in the 80s, check your ego at the door? I think check your credibility at the door works this time ;)
