nutter

Simon realised that he needed to do something big to show his love for sport - so he is now taking on what he describes as a "triathlon for absolute nutters".

“He gave me a very funny look. I think he thought I was a nutter.”

Remembering him fondly, Ruby says: "Dad was a nutter, to be fair. He was just full of laughter."

“I emphasize the place, because a New York nutter is world-class — something to do with the way the city, so cellular, so like an asylum, an island of vertical compartments, isolates people and intensifies psychosis.”

That leads to the next installment: Republicans will lose because this time around they are "running the biggest batch of nutters nationwide in American electoral history."
