Gwyneth and Chris Martin splitting up. The oh-so-philospohical press release bullshit read out on BBC News made me say 'oh f**k off' at the TV.
The statement was also accompanied by a photograph of the couple, as well as advice on marriage, divorce and spiritualism from two doctors.

In a lengthy essay titled On Conscious Uncoupling, Dr Habib Sadeghi and Dr Sherry Sami wrote about divorce as "a traumatic and difficult decision for all parties involved".

"By choosing to handle your uncoupling in a conscious way, regardless of what's happening with your spouse, you'll see that although it looks like everything is coming apart; it's actually all coming back together," they concluded.

There was some idiot woman going on about this Concious Uncoupling crap on the news, where's a job chucking an empty coke can at someone when you need it eh?

    It's not the fact they've split up that gets me, cos of course any celebrity couple splitting up will hit the news. It's this painting common sense as some kind of higher level spiritual bullshit that makes me sick. Spiritual advisors!? Why don't they p1ss off (on a spiritual level if they want to).

    Spend a while in LA and you will realise just how widespread this is.
    Its an epidemic.

    Uncoupling?

    Isn't it 'de-coupling'?

    And on the story itself - who gives a fook.

    In the US it's probably de-couplizing or de-couplization!

    Oh, I know it, things like this are almost normal in many circles there, even though anyone normal would dismiss it in minutes. Or, perhaps I need spiritual guidance? Hang on! perhaps I do! We're all part of a greater... (hang on, caught myself there with the early onset of 'boll*cks'. Phew, thank Christ for that. No, sh1t, hang on, that would be stupid. Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out).

    Actually, this morning I had Jehovah's Witnesses at the door for the first time in ages, I was gutted I had to cut them immediately short cos I was too busy. I normally at least like to make sure I wind them up a bit in return for them slightly inconveniencing me.

    i think she is probably constituted out of dried tofu. You need to soak her overnight before she is edible.

    Reminds me of Mel Brooks live on the subject of LA:

    "I moved to LA. I went to this party and the first thing someone asked to me was 'Whos' your shrink?'. I said that I didn't have one. She said 'Whats the matter with you?' "
