Oh dear – Mr Angry is back. And how. Not an auspicious start to today's publication of Times journalist Giles Coren's book Anger Management (For Beginners). Coren says with a typically gentle start to his day on Twitter:
My fucking book is "currently out of stock" on amazon. On my FUCKING publication day! Pissjeezus and cuntcuntcunt. NOW I'm angry
But then things really start to go awry for the journalist whose incandescent email to Times subs was an internet sensation.
Just spoke to my publishers. they say it's a 'distribution blip'. Fucknig WANKERS! wHY ARE All PUBLISHERS SO fucking shit?
He then tells his sympathetic agent Jonny Geller:
"i'm gonna kick ass so hard they are going get brusied rectums on Mars!"
Fortunately however, this dire situation does appear to have improved at the time of writing – in spite of a threat not to do the Steve Wright show on Radio 2, he has reported that the Amazon problem" is "sorted" and that his publishers have sent him a "Happy pubication day" card and "a nice bottle of louis roederer so I sort of forgive them".
And finally:
"Catch me, hungover and crapulent, on steve wright..."
