  1. Seriously, do you really mean that?
  2. A bunch of us have an irregular film night. One night one of our number brought What the Bleep do we know and it has gone down in film club history as truly the worst, yet unwittingly funniest films so far. In terms of californian cod spirituality with a load of physics terminology ignorantly thrown into the mix, it's god awful, however for it's dreadful plot led by the lovely Marlee Matlin, and the weirdly porn aesthetic it went for, it's almost *almost* worth watching. In terms of asking a load of questions and attempting to 'answer' them by juxtaposing the questions with a bunch of stuff about brane theory or mitochondria, as if that somehow explains why our girlfriend dumped us "it's because reality has n dimensions and you're not utilising the full possibilities of all of them...quick look over here, it's a neutrino; it's not because you're a useless prat who took her for granted"*, it's utter utter guff. *ok, I paraphrase.
  3. I have noticed wine coming out of the taps in more pubs these days.
  4. Curve was an early nineties thing. Hangover from goth with a small g (my bloody valentine, cranes, cocteau twins etc) and a precursor to the girl pop-rock of the mid nineties such as garbage, echobelly, elastica, sleeper, with a dance influence (which was beginning to seep into the mainstream about that time), whilst others went sort of shoegazy like the inimitable Slowdive. Nothing strange about having a thing for Martha. How are you with Joanna Newsome, Scout Niblett and the like? Oh dear God, I've a generational difference, noooo, I'm a dinosaur!!
  5. Oh plenty more of them Sean, plenty more Nicole Atkins - The Way It Is Neko Case - Maybe sparrow *sigh* M?m - Green Grass of Tunnel Asobi Seksu - Walk on the Moon Curve - Clipped *sighs again*
  6. Well that just show's you lack of imagination. When I'm parched on the hop I'll usually hook up can of compressed oxygen to a small jet engine and fire her up. The speed with which the liquid oxygen is turned into a gas causes the can to get incredibly cold, condensing the moisture in the air around it to pure water, which I collect in a discarded plastic bottle (I try to shake it free of tramps piss if I can). Usually does the trick.
  7. That doesn't just apply to water though does it. I'm sure there's a whole lot more fizzy pop sold than water. Of course in terms of air miles and nicking the locals' water, the big fizzy pop manufacturers have a lot to answer for too.
  8. Sean, I've had Fanta in Ireland and the colour scares the bejeezus out of me. *Bob*, the point being made about far flung water last night, in this case Fiji, was that a pump was shoved down to a nice water source, mostly paid for with UN aid, and the Fiji authorities decided to shove a bottling plant above it and export the water, forcing the locals do carry on getting their water from a dirty river. Said water gets bought by stupid people in more money than sense restaurants for twenty odd quid a bottle. I've always thought bottled water was stupid and have never indulged. Not out of moral reasons, it's just an absurd concept. I seem to recall that when it first arrived on these shores it was the butt (no pun intended) of many jokes, then sometime around 1987 this country had a surgical irony bypass. Or something.
  9. he he, the wonders of facebook eh?! Happy birthday Tillie, don't do anything I wouldn't do.
  10. The simply gorgeous Juanita Stein and Howling Bells on one of the the albums of 2006. Setting Sun
  11. It's not just women he approaches, though some would argue I'm a big girl's blouse. He seemed harmless enough however.
  12. In a freudian slip of the eye, I actually read that as : "Experts agree that the best way to lose weight is to eat fewer cakes" rather than calories!
  13. Nualacoll is a genuine dulite and seems to have heart in the right place, so we'll give the benefit of the doubt. Guano and winged beans doesn't seem any worse than most of the 'health supplements' out there. Claims to miracle weight loss aside.
  14. Err, no such thing as magic. Lose weight, hmm, sensible diet and exercise. I'm not sure this isn't even borderline spam frankly.
  15. If he's happy to pay the ?30 million pounds this ridiculous soap-opera has cost, he can do whatever he fuggin' likes. Barring that I really really don't give a toss about any of it. Well, the daily mash has has fun, so I suppose some good came out of it Prince Philip Nicht Ein Nazi Di Revealed To Fayed She Was Spiderman
  16. I don't as it goes, but may have to give it more of a look in :)
  17. no way, fellow hammer? well i never!!!
  18. I've been enjoying this site, dedicated to the idea that many commenters on BBC's have your say can be a bit of a lunatic lot. http://ifyoulikeitsomuchwhydontyougolivethere.com/ OK, so bears like doing things in the woods, still it's funny. As previously pointed out by http://xkcd.com/202/
  19. Am I too old for this?
  20. fantastic video, typical story really, girl loves tree, tree loves girl, dad hates tree Modest Mouse - People as Places as People
  21. I love that song DC, no idea why songza was offering a censored version, did I miss some blue language? While we're on a bouncy music theme
  22. cor, mondays don't half drag do they
  23. Perhaps Atila's keyboard has crumbs in it or something. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt. tee hee
  24. It was pretty good the night of the EDF drinks there, with nairy a lairy scum in sight. And laid on an impressive spread too.
  25. Their [wendalls] indian ones are fab, the thai sausages are nice, as are the spanish stylee ones. Actually they're all pretty good.
