Eagle Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Obs is obviously a fan of X Factor which has taken mass weeping to a new level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted October 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Don't watch X-factor precisely for that reason - spurts of lacramonial fluid from the TV set. Think it all started with the death of Lady Di and has now blossomed into a cult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter T Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Don't watch X-factor precisely for that reason - spurts of lacramonial fluid from the TV set. Think it all started with the death of Lady Di and has now blossomed into a cult. Perhaps one needs feelings to be able to do that, so you don't need to increase you purchase of Kleenex obs.
