Intolerance
There was quite a response to the departure of Roy Keane from Manchester United over the weekend. Personally, I was pleased to see him go. But, on reflection, it's slightly inconvenient.

I think it's highly unlikely that I'll ever be invited onto Room 101 (A TV show where celebrities cast the things they find most irritating into an oblivion named after a Torture Chamber in George Orwell's 1984) but it's useful to have a good idea of the five things one might wish to rid the world of just in case. Whenever I've thought about this Manchester United Football Club has been top of the list, and Roy Keane and Alex Ferguson have been the club's chief perpetraters of evil. (I'd have to find some way of rescuing Wayne Rooney, England needs him, and Ryan Giggs, just because) But now that Keane is no longer connected with the club, I'm going to have to use up a second choice to get rid of him personally, which brings its own dangers - Keane is much more likely to come and break my legs if I single him out.
Other choices would include Radio 1 (despite the fact that it's run by the good old BBC), men's hairdressers - where they usually have Radio 1 or a nauseating local radio station playing - I hate the image consciousness of them. And finally, people who constantly use the word 'cool' and seem to think it makes them 'cool'. If Keane hadn't left MUFC I'd be throwing in egregious McAvoy too.
It's probably better, for my own sake that I don't appear on the show.

You'd invite me because you're already in there? Is it possible to be heard from the abyss?
