Stephen fry ladies and gentlemen

Ladies, gents and non-binaries: Stephen Fry, man who possesses the most common sense of any human on earth.

PLEASE MAKE STEPHEN FRY A SIR. KNIGHT HIM RIGHT NOW. BETTER YET: MAKE HIM KING. OF EVERYTHING.

You cannot work too hard at poetry. People are bad at it not because they have tin ears, but because they simply don’t have the faintest idea how much work goes into it. It’s not as if you’re ordering a pizza or doing something that requires direct communication in a very banal way. But it seems these days the only people who spend time over things are retired people and prisoners. We bolt things, untasted. It’s so easy to say, ‘That’ll do.’ Everyone’s in a hurry. People are intellectually lazy, morally lazy, ethically lazy…All the time. When people get angry with a traffic warden they don’t stop and think what it would be like to be a traffic warden or how annoying it would be if people could park wherever they liked. People talk lazily about how hypocritical politicians are. But everyone is. On the one hand we hate that petrol is expensive and on the other we go on about global warming. We abrogate the responsibility for thought and moral decisions onto others and then have the luxury of saying it’s not good enough.

Stephen fry. Stop it.

You are clearly being too smart. You are not of this Earth.

Stephen Fry on QI- Headdesk/FacePalm edition

Stephen Fry: Can we settle an important question? How do you pronounce your last name?
JK Rowling: It is Row-ling. As in rolling pin. (mimics rolling action)
Stephen Fry: So if any of you hear someone pronounce her name "Rohw-ling", you have my permission to hit them over the head with -- not with Order of the Phoenix, that would be cruel. Something smaller, like a fridge.

The offending tweet was made by a schoolfriend, not the kid whose account it’s on. (see the next two tweets). But look at the class of Stephen Fry’s answer.

Stephen with a corgi is just too cute

this is the most British thing I have seen all day, apart from my roommate, who persists in wrapping herself in the Union Jack and pouring tea and marmite all over herself while howling “ROOTY TOOTY POINT AND SHOOTY”
