I thought Stephen Fry was bi-poler now I see he's bi-winning ;D

[Namaechan]

Finally read Fry's biography! Am now wondering if i'm having a crush on a man older than my father and completely romantically un-interested in my gender. It's strangely comfortable.

I should be studying, but i'm thinking of borrowing The liar, one of the few Fry books in my library... He's just so darn cute. Especially in this clip, the picture in his biography where he thinks he looks too smug, and in the "gorgeous" sketch xD Why oh why weren't i born in England?

@DarkestHeart266 Um... You don't have to write down the whole sketch. We have a clip of Stephen Fry for that.

[DarkestHeart266]

Stephen: When I was 17 I’d already tried 14 different jobs, married twice fathered many many many many children, eaten a perfectly enormous quantity of food over a long time period, been weaned off 6 types of class A dangerous drug, given up smoking, taken it up again, given it up again, taken it up again, given taking it up and taken giving it up again and again and again and again.

[DarkestHeart266]

By the time I was 20 alcohol had never passed my lips yet I was reckless and predatory alcoholic, my life was in pieces, my marriages were shattered, my children lay in ruins. I was paying alimony along the sinuses, behind the dark interior passages of the skull and through the nose.

[DarkestHeart266]

But at 30, at 30 came the chance to redeem a bin liner of broken promises, if I didn’t take that chance what would I be, what would I become? Just another friendless acid spot on the back buttock of a weeping society. So I took it, took the chance, picked up the ball and ran, went for it, threw caution to the teeth of the gale, never look back just keep running.

[DarkestHeart266]

I did it, forget the past there’s nothing there, not even memories, just a road you never travelled unwinding backward to a place you never came from, where fruit grows on tree you never climbed, in an orchard where you lost your virginity to a boy called Timothy who died of Horlicks poisoning before you were born, no answers there-

Hugh: -Stephen Stephen Stephen Stephen…

Stephen: Yes?

Hugh: Go and have a lie down.

Stephen: Okay.

Hugh: S:
