"I've said this many, many times, but I feel incredibly proud to be Irish. And going from sausage ads to this wasn't in the bingo cards for me,” he said.

"Me and Andrew Scott both spoke about this coming home to do the All of Us Strangers premiere last year."

"I'm absolutely biased but I think we've got the most extraordinary country and people who are deeply supportive of the artists that we have." (x)

Does Your Partner Have ‘Mentionitis’? Here’s When to Be Concerned, Say Experts

WORD OF THE DAY Mon, December 14, 2020 OED Word of the Day: mentionitis, n. A tendency towards repeatedly or habitually mentioning something, esp. the name of a person one is attracted to or infatuated with, regardless of its relevance to the topic of conversation. "‘It's Mentionitis,’ Jude was saying. ‘What's that?’ said Magda. ‘Oh, you know, when someone's name keeps coming up all the time, when it's not strictly relevant: “Rebecca says this” or “Rebecca's got a car like that”.’" -1999, H.

All of it came pouring out of Brienne then, like black blood from a wound… the voyage down the Trident, dueling Jaime in the woods, the Bloody Mummers, Jaime crying “Sapphires”, Jaime in the tub at Harrenhal with steam rising from his body, the taste of Vargo Hoat’s blood when she bit down on his ear, the bear pit, Jaime leaping down onto the sand, the long ride to King’s Landing, Sansa Stark, the vow she’d sworn to Jaime, the vow she’d sworn to Lady Catelyn, Oathkeeper, Duskendale, Maidenpool, Nimble Dick and Crackclaw and the Whispers, the men she’d killed… “I have to find her,” she finished. “There are others looking, all wanting to capture her and sell her to the queen. I have to find her first. I promised Jaime. Oathkeeper, he named the sword. I have to try to save her… or die in the attempt. - Brienne VI, AFfC

Can u post Lindsey's mentionities?

This happens in two ways. Firstly, the way Lindsey needlessly and randomly brings Stevie up even when not asked. For example, in this article about LA, he’s talking about his children and says

I don’t think I would’ve wanted to raise my kids elsewhere, but it is a mixed bag. Growing up in Atherton, you could just get on your bike, go to school, and come home. You had a level of autonomy that doesn’t exist for kids today. Some of that has to do with L.A. and some of it has to do with the times. I grew up in one place. Stevie, on the other hand—her dad was a businessman who uprooted his family regularly, so she learned how to make a splash everywhere they went. It took its toll on her in other ways, and that’s not something I want for my kids. We’re dug in here, and we’re happy. 

He did a similar thing on Talks Music on the Beeb in late 2013, where he was asked about his own method of creating music (music or lyrics first, etc) and defined it SOLELY in terms of opposition to Stevie’s method. He spent just as long talking about how she makes music as how he does. 

Secondly, the way he goes on and on and on and on about her, even when he doesn’t need to. A prime example of this was when he was asked about Soldier’s Angel at his USC appearance a few years ago. At one point he even interrupted his long ass speech about them to say that the questioner had opened a can of worms. 

Another great example is this interview, mostly about the 2013 tour and Extended Play. He’s asked about ALL the members of Fleetwood Mac but spend 75% of his answer talking about Stevie in a *personal* way and the other 25% about John/Mick but only in a *professional* way. I think that’s important. 

This is the first tour since 2009. Every time you guys come back together for a tour, you must discover something new about Mick, John and Stevie. What have you discovered about each one of them this time that you didn’t know?

(laughs) Wow... As far as Stevie goes, again, if you go back to that song “It Takes Time” and thinking maybe about times in the past when maybe I could have shown her a little  more love or shown her a way to make her process a bit easier. From the first day of rehearsal, I had that in mind to try to do.

I think that difference between Stevie and me right now on this tour: If you go back two tours to 2003, we had just finished doing our last album, “Say You Will,” and I had produced that. And there was a certain, I wouldn’t call it an animosity, but there was a lot of tension between Stevie and me. Some of that polarity clearly played out on stage and, in a way, it made for a very interesting show. When you cut to 2009, that had been kind of neutralized, but there was nothing so tangible between us. And now, it’s sort of swung the other way where there’s more of a connection. There’s more of a mutual acknowledgement of what we’ve been through, an openness to acknowledge it on stage.

With John and Mick, the only thing I’d say about John and Mick on this tour is that they are both personally in, I think, the best places I’ve seen them in a long time and possibly because of that, I have never heard the two of them play better as a rhythm section and, of course, they are one of the great rhythm sections in rock. Consequently, as a band, we are playing about the best I can ever remember us ever playing.
