Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson is in deep shit with the BBC once again. The man who's drawn criticism for a gay slur, an Asian slur, a black slur, a Nazi salute, calling the Prime Minister a "silly cunt," and many more moments of charming commentary is currently serving what is somehow his first suspension. The incident that finally warranted a punishment involved a cold dinner and possible punches thrown. You'd think Clarkson would keep his mouth shut, especially considering he was warned last year that one more offensive remark would lead to his firing. But c'mon. This is Jeremy Clarkson we're talking about. The dude pisses off his sink when he pours himself a glass of water. 

Clarkson ran his mouth once again at a charity event, calling his bosses "fucking bastards" and saying they've "fucked themselves. Displaying self-awareness, as well as a lack of self-preservation, he went on to say he's probably done on Top Gear:


I didn’t foresee my sacking but I would like to do one last lap. So I’ll go down to Surrey and I’ll do one last lap of that track before the fucking bastards sack me. … I’ll be a bit tearful when I do it, but fuck it, let’s do it."

Nearly a million fans have signed a petition to bring Clarkson back to Top Gear, and he seems to be thanking them by doing everything possible to ensure that doesn't happen.
