The Ginger Gene

What? You think for one insane moment I would date a ginge? I think not.

Good! Because, I admit, I'm a ginge. Not just a ginge; a SPECKY ginge! My piggy little peepers, reinforced with inches of bevelled glass, are even now arrogantly scanning these pathetic rants. Moreover, I'm not just a specky ginge, but a specky BEARDED ginge! Facial hair, of course, transforms me into a Man Of Literature with stupendous critical and creative prowess. And, would you believe, I'm also a specky bearded YORKSHIRE ginge! Being born in Leeds gives me not only the divine right to play cricket for the heavenly county, but gives me an extra helping of pompous pontification, such as when I say: "That soft Southern booger writes some reight roobish, tha knows! Eeh, by goom, my dead granny could write better poo-etry than thee!" Picture a ginger beardy short-sighted cross between Geoff Boycott and John Prescott and you've got me to a T! Er... is this where I put in the "GSOH" and "WLMT woman with big purse" bits?

A specky bearded ginge from Leeds?! have at you you caddish fiend ... I am a specky, sometimes bearded ginge from the fair city of Bradford (though you'd never guess it from my accent!) and thus am *uniquely* able to be monstrously red of hair, squinty in the eye, grimly northern in outlook (though southern in voice mainly) *and* wear a bright shirt of claret and amber stripes ... Ha! Thus I win! Or lose, depending on your perspective on the whole situation ...

*watches women with big purses forming orderly queue outside neil's door*

why do so many gingery men seem to favour facial hair? is it that they fancy themselves as Van Gogh?

In fact, if theres a hint of ginge at birth, put them down immediately. Actually, can you scan for ginger hair?

Cos I've always been pro life, but the Ginge's are changing my mind. I'm thinking, "Damage Limitation" here. And whilst were at it, if there's any pompous ginge's out there that use Nice n' Easy, dont bother. The pig eyes and pompous aura give you away.

Not to mention the odious pubes. Makes the dick look hamster nestled away for the winter. Yeurch.

And don't give me nay of the "passionate redheads" rubbish. It's orange and frizzy, not red. And it's not passion, its pompous pissed offness at being ginger.

Gordon Strachan always gives amusing and entertaining interviews. No hint of pomposity.

Yes, but he's tiny and ginger and Eric Cantona screwed his missus and he's scottish i.e. a wee ginger LOSER. Like the rest of them.

Sue, is there any chance here that you have had recent trouble with a boyfriend who is.......ginger!?
