But Tim is an artist, fame is a by-product of what he does. But you, you don’t ‘make’ anything. No-one plays you at their wedding. No one turns to your work to soothe their soul. Twitter followers etc just don’t mean to artists what they mean to you.

Man, just take a seat for a damn minute. You trade on division and picking on others, you use follower numbers to attempt to belittle people, you shout about ‘snowflakes’ when you have a fragile ego. Let’s not forget that some awful things have happened on your watch. Pipe down

.. and you’re a pompous fading cliché-ridden old rocker desperately trying – and failing – to stay vaguely relevant by using my name to get Twitter likes, so we make a right pair. Pipe down yourself.
