The, Snorky?s on one with all this thread starting business this morning thread


Recommended Posts

I'm going to crash a gallery tonight, and get ripped to the tits on free red wine. Then revisit it all over some unfortunate at a suburban station.


The rest of you bourgeois lamers will probably be sucking The Man's appendage - not like me and Dave. We'll be out free-sourcing till the last train to Redhill (11:03). And Dave's only got Zones 1-6 on his travel card, the mad fecker.

Snorkers


There is even a term for this artfully mismatched array. I believe it's called a "harlequin set" (oh yuk,I just did a little sick in my mouth then )



But it's the "exhibitions/shows" of dross travel/art photos that finally ties the anvil round my neck ........blegggghhhhhhh



W**F


* licking the gum off a dozen stamps just for the hell of it...mwoaaah ..mmmm*

I used to go to a few of those gallery opening things, when I had friends in the art world (before they all left London). On the plus side, you'd get a few hot women there, and plenty of free booze. On the downside, the art was usually shite and the places tended to be brimming with insufferable pretentious fops, faux-bohemian dullards, wannabe socialites, plus a smattering of city workers in search of aforementioned hot women.


Give me a decent steak and a bottle of wine at the Palmerston any day.

Anyone who pays anything ever for art, food, drinks, travel, houses, nannies, skips, blinis, casual slacks, rare '33s, lawnmowers, black polo necks etc is a misguided, duped, dumb, blind, deaf, mute consumer.


PS Tip about the Black Cherry. Go in, order two HeavensToBetsy's and then leg it with the free Bombay Mix when the Barman's got his back turned crushing his Juniper Seeds. You snooze you looze. I could tell you some tales.

    • Not sure what you mean by "involved with firework enjoyment"? I'm all for others enjoying themselves, and I like fireworks, but if they were limited to public displays then people could still enjoy them? Having said that, I see that tickets for the London New Year fireworks start at £20 (Dawson's Heights it is,  then!) The fireworks in Brockwell Park used to be free. I don't know why those don't happen any more?
    • Really interesting discussion here. It's difficult to respect the views of people who support Farage, Trump, Musk etc. Why should we, when their views are deplorable. But then that exact 'deplorable' label, as we know, is counterproductive and drives people to double down / switch off to more progressive views. How do you actually help change minds? We're currently spiralling into dark places culturally and politically imo. The amount of open racism, even amongst front line politicians here and in the US is astounding to me. Feels like we're going backwards. The influence of social media and the tech billionaires / bros, is a powerful and largely malignant one. There was an enlightening (and frightening) bit of journalism by Sky this week about Musk's influence on British politics. He has a strange obsession with the UK and London in particular (as do many on the US right wing): https://news.sky.com/story/the-x-effect-how-elon-musk-is-boosting-the-british-right-13464487
    • Looking for any tickets to the Dulwich Hamlets game against St Albans today!
    • I'm going to Paris with friends, staying in the 3rd arrondissement. I used to go a lot but that was ages ago so wondered if anyone has any 'insider tips'? We are interested in small art galleries, independent shops, good value cafes and restaurants that may not feature in all the many online articles or guides, thanks!
