Meet Me In Montauk?

Genuinely a bit scary.

The torture was and has been never ending. For both of them. It must have been unbearable.

if paul and john were actually fucking like fr they were putting their dicks inside of each other…john played that sex tape of him and yoko. JOHN PLAYED THAT SEX TAPE OF HIM AND YOKO TO PAUL!!!! if i were paul i think i would’ve actually gone insane. i would’ve ended up on the news or possibly the fbis most wanted….AND john played it in a room with OTHER PEOPLE!!!!!!!!! paul couldn’t have even tweaked if he WANTED TO. sickening.

Reblogging again just to say, thank you for this. McLennon Forever, Trump Never.

🖤🤎💜💙🩵💚💛🧡❤️🩷

#sometimes is incapable of not telling the truth #oh Paul

the infamous “if i was a girl, maybe i could go out and…” paul quote is so insane to me because like… he doesn’t want john to NOT be a man, he wants it to be socially acceptable to be with john exactly as he is

#i gasped

Mate?

Thank you, captain obvious Sir Paul McCartney

This just goes back to where they came from. Liverpool is a tough town. I wouldn't particularly want to run into Paul McCartney in a dark alley, if he didn't like me.

This always feels significant when I read or hear it. Thoughts are stirred, but can’t be captured.

Anyway.

It was at Stoky Wood* (badge - black and yellow, with a picture of a Spitfire flying over the River Mersey) that Paul and I saw our first film. We were seated on long wooden benches watching Crime Buster Dick Barton**, a great radio hero of ours, when it became too much for Paul. In the flickering half light I watched with great amusement as Big Brother stumbled over me and his pals to exit screen left, scared out of his tiny mind. He wasn't scared when it came to smaller things such as bullies, however, and many's the time he came to my rescue in the school play yard. 'Big Brother have a use after all,' I thought.

*Stockton Wood Primary School, Speke, Liverpool **Dick Barton: Special Agent, was released in May 1948 Btw, Paul's 'I have another memory, of hiding from someone, then hitting them over the head with an iron bar' is the story about Stoky Wood too (Paul was at Stockton Wood Primary School from September 1947 until July 1951)

My memories of brother and I are of two independent little chaps, but Uncle and Auntie,s remembrances are of 'two right little swine', always up to mischief, or with their backs to the wall saying, 'We won't… WE WON'T!' I'm sure they're just a might confused. I do remember a few instances, however, which might give their memories some validity. Like the memory of Paul and me in 72 Western speeding up the growth of next door's apples by throwing stones at the apple tree, and then vigorously denying it. The stones on the other side let us down! Memories of being boss of my own gang in the later Stockton Wood years and charging against the 'enemy' across the school yard in full war cry (obviously why the headmistress Miss Margaret A. Thomas, who used to make the school toys herself, advised the world that one day I would be a 'Leader of men').*** And the came an older bully unto the yard who hit little girls and maketh them cry, and it behove me to teach unto him a lesson: Seeing that I was far too young and weedy to challenge him personally, I chose a friend to talk for me…(no, not Paul)…a housebrick! Being, as I've said, a holy lad it wasn't too difficult to levitate the brick up into the air…over the Bully's thick head…and cut (snip!) the invisible strings. After this bloody, awful incident, he didn't bully little girls, or anyone else for that matter, ever more.

***'I remember the headmistress saying how good the two boys were with younger children,' says Jim, 'always sticking up for them. She said Michael was going to be a leader of men. I think this was because he was always arguing. Paul did things much quieter. He had much more nous. Mike stuck his neck out. Paul always avoided trouble.'

Also:

They were four tough kids from Liverpool who’d learned their craft playing in hotel-cum-brothels in Hamburg. I mean, they were tough. They grew up in Liverpool, which was a tough city. It’s like growing up in Detroit or somewhere. Somewhere, that toughness always comes out. <…> This just goes back to where they came from. Liverpool is a tough town. I wouldn't particularly want to run into Paul McCartney in a dark alley, if he didn't like me.

This hits ALL the spots.

Harmony songs are THE Beatles songs for me.

I never say no to a bit of rip-roar McCartney either.

Same jumper? Were they sharing or did they have one each? In my mind this is George’s and Paul has borrowed it. ❤️
