I've spent more time than I'd like to admit consuming pickup artist content across every medium. I've watched TV shows, lurked in online forums, and read books - the legitimate ones from major publishers and some shady ones sold as e-books on dubious websites. I can partly chalk that up to the fact that, in the mid-2010s, pickup artist forums became politically relevant due to GamerGate, an online harassment campaign targeting women in the gaming industry.
The former Olympic diver, 31, had already expressed his distrust of Good Morning Britain presenter Kate Garraway, 28, whom he suspected of being one of the Traitors (she is, unbeknownst to him, a Faithful).

The modern football manager might wear classic Reeboks, or knackered Converse, or trackie bottoms tucked in socks but, to continue paraphrasing the Arctic Monkeys song, there ain't no romance in our game no more. Nothing endures. The average managerial tenure tends to last between 18 months and two years. For Ole Gunnar Solskjr at Besiktas, it was a little more than seven months; Jose Mourinho got 14 at Fenerbahce.
