    They look like they were designed the last time MC won the cup - must've had some left over. Stop changing the subject. I am chaining the wheels of your pram and banning you from loitering at thread gates without a responsible adult present (not you AlanM, you are putty in LM's mitten-clad hands).

As you posted this did you not feel a "whoosh" and detect the faint odour of rusks as LM sneaked in whiloe you held the door open? I think the ref is taking backhanders. And LM? These socks are disgusting!

    Now I must lodge an official complaint as LM's pram was blocking the entrance to the above named thread and I was tripped up by toys, socks, a sunhat, some frilly knickers and a dummy! Ref?!

    why is there a crowd around the entrance to the NOTW boycott threaqd?... oh i see...
  10. Quite right papio - I don't need a Mirror to see my face cause i don't shave.. I don't need a Telegraph cause I have a phone.. stuff your Times I've got a watch.. Observer? I can see!.. Independent? I AM independent.. NOTW? Who gives a shit about the world?.. Mail? it's mostly junk.. Come on man you can do better than that! If you want to insult the name at least insult its original title, The Manchester Guardian, and take the time to wiki enough information to realise that back in 1821 there WAS a need for a Guardian to "zealously enforce the principles of civil and religious Liberty ... warmly advocate the cause of Reform ... endeavour to assist in the diffusion of just principles of Political Economy and ... support, without reference to the party from which they emanate, all serviceable measures". ETA: I used to love the Sketch cause I'm uselsss at drawing stuff!
  11. Hmm... aren't DSG just part of the piss-taking anarchy of the lulz? I certainly don't think they represent 'the left' unless you mean the communist left - rather they resemble a bunch of blogging nerdlings with a penchant for showing off. I read the Dazed Digital interview too and I quote: DD: How much does popular will matter when faced with the real political-economic power of the IMF, pace Ireland, Greece, Portugal? Deterritorial Support Group: Bourgeois democracy is obviously compatible with capitalism, but genuine control of our lives and relations will take something more than the current negotiations of capital with state. It will require a movement and a process of building from our present conditions, a process of communisation, and that is why we are communists. As Karl Marx said, "Communism is for us not a state of affairs which is to be established, an ideal to which reality will have to adjust itself. We call communism the real movement which abolishes the present state of things."

Flying Goose Sriracha Hot Chilli Sauce is my chosen condiment of heat right now (you can get it from Chinese shop in Camberwell), sweet, hot and unctuous. http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.chilliworld.com/i/p/16.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.chilliworld.com/SP6.asp%3Fp_id%3D16&usg=__90xq9smUY9rLybYEg4GOlc6gqx4=&h=300&w=200&sz=7&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=bxUNta0uqE5mwM:&tbnh=158&tbnw=105&ei=jMQVToz-OomIhQeW3_FX&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dflying%2Bgoose%2Bchili%2Bsauce%2Bimages%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26sa%3DX%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-GB:official%26channel%3Ds%26biw%3D1429%26bih%3D730%26site%3Dwebhp%26tbm%3Disch%26prmd%3Divns&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=427&vpy=105&dur=520&hovh=240&hovw=160&tx=91&ty=151&page=1&ndsp=27&ved=1t:429,r:2,s:0

Once the worms turn to mush, remove the cap and supposedly the odour from the rot will pull foxes from miles around. This is an old trappers trick. I've never tried this myself although I always intended to but now I have to consider my neighbour's chickens.

    now, now play nicely. I saw your 1st 73 LM and thought it was , well, let's say 'well researched'. I don't think it matters that you had to trawl (I said Trawl not troll) back a couple of weeks or so, it just proves your dedication to the game. I must say if all players took it as seriously and were as committed then we would no doubt be enjoying the jet-set thrills of such diverse-spin offs as: setenta y tres, dreiundsiebzig, soixante-treize, drie?nzeventig, εβδομήντα τρία and even the exotic 七十三. *sighs and dreams of long games of settantatre by Lake Como*
  15. Apparently luring one into your garden, dispatching it with a spade and nailing its severed head to a gatepost is frowned upon. Have you tried 'Scoot' or 'Get Off My Garden' (repellent sprays)?
  16. Eesh! Why does that sound like President Quayle? I think scapegoats are already being rounded up.

  21. It wasn't the copying and pasting of the interviewee's work that was a problem (everyone does that with relevant quotation marks and information as to where the quote originated) it was doing the same with other interviews given previously to other interviewers. If I interviewed you, then someone else interviewed you in three months time but used all the answers you'd given me (because they weren't listening properly or misheard or found the answers less illuminating than they wished them to be), you'd be fine with it as you weren't misrepresented (they were your words after all), but the reader is duped into believing that Hari was the one who elicited them. That is dishonest - no? Far from the left rejoicing it seems to be Damian Thompson in the Telegraph who is doing the most cartwheels of joy. And - for the record - "It's The Judean Peoples' Front NOT The Peoples' Front of Judea!"
  22. Still as SJ points out, at least he didn't hack their phones. He would never stoop to that... he would just copy from information obtained by other hackers.

The only supermarket to do so, it seems. Never a company to miss an opportunistic bandwagon, like those other paragons of virtue and decency at Ford, Mitsubishi, Vauxhall and Lloyds Bank. Makes me want to go and buy their permanently-limp broccoli just to be public spirited.
