I was going to write about something else, but I took a break and went to the kitchen for a drink and on the way she was watching a thing on MTV about a street magician.
I fucking hate these job dodging work shy lazy dreadlock loving croaky voiced chronic masturbating fucks. They have no friends which gives them plenty of time to practice their tricks bags of shite on unsuspecting members of the public actors.
“Oh my God, it looked so real.”
So did Jurassic Park, but you really didn’t expect to go home and find a poxy T-rex in your back garden, did you?
It may look real, but it’s not.
Standing on a pole is not magic.
Standing in an ice cube is not magic.
Starving yourself in a box over London is not magic.
Holding your breath is not magic, it’s what oyster divers do for a living without as much as a fag break.
And you don’t have to ball your eyes out like a spoiled little shit whose mother won’t buy him a packet of Rolo’s at the checkout when you’ve done one of these non events.
I don’t know what annoys me more, the fact that there are still people making money out of this non profession or that so many people are entertained by it. If the bystanders watching are in fact real people, why doesn’t one of them actually call him a David Blaine wannabe fuckwit and stroll off chuffed with himself that he’ll make the bloopers special?
He’ll do something like attempt to hang himself from a length of chain, and just when you think it’s too good to be true, it is. He gets away scratch free by way of clever knot tying, much to the disappointment of me and the pure amazement of his audience.
Then for his show stopping finale he declares that he’ll walk down the side of a building unassisted and without any safety harnesses. But as usual, he’s all foreplay and teasing without the gratifying money shot. He doesn’t fall to his bloody and Youtubeable death, he actually strolls down the side of a fucking building. Bare foot.
I don’t know what the significance of being bare foot held, but it must have held something. Maybe he wanted to show off his magicians pedicure. His megicure.
Fuckstain.
“I can walk through plate glass windows”
Big deal, there’s people do that in Temple Bar after a wild night.
“I can walk on water”
He’s been taking notes at Bertie’s time in the evidence box.
“Magic is universal in its ability to unite cultures”
All cultures, no matter how diverse have the ability to tell you to fuck right off.
We even have our own fuckwit to add to the mix. Keith Barry. I want to say bad things about Keith, but something tells me he’s a really nice guy. He seems more of a mind controller like that Derren Brown. Which makes me think that while you’ll thoroughly enjoy having a pint and a chin wag with him, but he’d use his mind tricks to make you buy his drinks all night. Just like that mate we all have who dodges rounds and ends up going home with more money than he came out with.
That’s the kind of cunt Keith Barry is. I think.
And don’t get me started on the cunt who started it all, Paul Daniels. Or was it David Copperfield? Or Jesus? I can’t remember. But they all have gorgeous women. Well Debbie McGee looks like that meerkat off the insurance ads, but she wasn’t bad in her day. And David Copperfield have Claudia Schiffer, even though he spent more time on his hair that she did. And we all know Jesus was knee deep in fanny the whole time.
Mind control.
In fact as I’m writing this I’m getting a mental message from Keith Barry telling me that I should write something bad about him. But I won’t, because that’s just a mind trick to get me to write something complimentary.
But I won’t do that either.
Keith Barry is a handsome knob jockey who entertains a lot of people with his charm and charisma and whimsy. He is in no way a fraud who preys on weak minded people like his wife who he obviously voodoo’d into noshing him.
Wait, I’m confused.
And that’s why magic is a wanker.
