MACKEM MILLER: Why do you have to? TAEK T. MILLER: Kem, sweetheart, you know the wind's coming in. I'll be back as soon as it starts to cool down again. Don't worry. Be good, okay? Listen to Ma. MACKEM: It's not fair. Just because Da-- TAEK: Sometimes things aren't fair. I gotta leave now, okay? Wrett'll flip his-- he'll be upset if I'm late. MACKEM: Tell Wrett he's short and dumb. TAEK: He's taller than me! MACKEM: [laughing] You're short too! TAEK: Such disrespect, for your poor suffering big brother. And with all the things I do for you. Love you, Kem. Be safe.

Tonight was meant to be another riot in my city. There were police vans everywhere this afternoon but thankfully there have been no more incidents tonight here and a few miles up the road there's been around 1000 people in a counter protest. I really hope this is the start of the end of this horrific terrorism that's been up and down the UK

My inevitably unread post about tattoos and dialect has led me to want type out some things about the way I talk (I debated recording them, if someone really asks I will but I don't get asks so it's fine),

"You really shouldn't be playing out so late" "Eya man, dinnit be out so late!"

"How are the children doing" "'ows the bairns"

I can not believe my team failed to win the season" "Ne way, I cannit fucking tak it ne more losing a season again"

"I think the area could use some renovation so really improve tourism" "Fucking shithole here like, but I hope they dinnit make it tourist hotspot, will be full of southern cunts,"

"Excuse me? Do you have the time? Thank you" "Eya! mate, d'ya got the time? Cheers marrra"

"My ball went over the fence and the man won't return it until tomorrow" "Fkn ball flew owa the dudes fence and the daft cunt winnit give it back"

And finally we use Cunt a lot, I know Americans hate it especially and I've got in trouble with people here, but Cunt is both genderless and can be a verb here, I'm always saying wheres my cunting phone, or asking my brother how "he was doing you daft cunt."
