Johann Hari: Popbitch has gone too far this time

Thursday, 22 September 2011

Always edgy and frequently hilarious, weekly celebrity and pop culture newsletter Popbitch has been one of the highlights of my week for many years. But I fear the writers may have gone too far with one of their latest revelations:

Writer’s block
Insert own career down toilet joke

It’s good to hear that Johann Hari has decided to take a course in journalism if only because it means it’ll get him out of the house a bit more. Visitors chez Hari have been subject to some rather icky sights. One friend who visited during one of his darker hours found the toilet full to the brim with shit. It was blocked, and obviously had been for a while, but that hadn’t deterred him from continuing to use it.

I mean, there are some things one really doesn’t need to know: the bowel movements of portly hacks are really none of anyone else’s business. It’s almost enough to make you feel sorry for the poor chap.

What’s more, I’m quite sure poor Johann is innocent. I’m betting the culprit is that slimy, unsanitary weasel David Rose!
