I think it rocks...

Excitable, me?

Any excuse to pass around pretend glasses of fantasy champagne, m’dear. Have a pretend cigar, too.

Besides, Barbelith’s been all-over grey for ages. This is a much nicer grey. Conversation is 'Grey-with-a-twist-of-blueberry-juice', mmm, lovely. And, Art and Design is grape coloured, and so shall henceforth be the forum for bacchanalian cavorting. Which Barbelith didn’t really have a place for, before.

it's partly me being duh, as i thought it was all grey.

As i say, clean lines: nice. Grey, not so much, IMO.

And surely I'm not the only person reminded of this.

*slurps champagne greedily*

It *is* rather nice. Reminds me a touch of Designers' Republic stuff for Warp, colour-wise especially...

It's worth having a roam around the other parts of the board - you might find things more to your liking there. Be aware that there are some really skanky broken bits of the board that will at the very least drive me mad, if they don't knock off a few of you as well).

*puffs on cigar sagely, puts on Forever Changes*

I love the way peoples names light up, it’s kinda sweet, somehow. ‘Reminds me a bit of Wordy.

aaahh, can't go wrong with Mr.'Love'.

So, it's 'Designers Republic'(which is a compliment, btw) meets 'Wordy'.

Perfect.

In retrospect, Wordy was fucking disturbing. Who thought of Wordy? "Hey! How are we going to get the kids reading? With a levitating legless orange-and-black domeheaded thing covered in letters! That lives in a bin! In a library!"

Everything I do is the BBC's fault.

Oh, and Hi there, everyone.

Cheers both. That's the 'Why don't you build yourself a word?' song going round my head for the next few hours.

Meanwhile I shall snicker knowingly over the "Drop that E" song.

Actually, Mordant, I was thinking on the way to work- does anyone remember a programme from about eight or nine years back that used to be on late on a Friday night, called "The Big E", which always began with somebody saing "And coming up o the E tonight..."

Oh how I laughed. Being monged.

Hey, Wordy worked though. Kids today could bloody well do with a bit of Wordy in their lives. In fact, pretty much every child in Britain could do with having a cloud of legless sprites constantly buzzing about their heads insisting the fucking well try harder in relentlessly jolly tones. That’d teach them.

The Big E was some kind of European magazine-type programme, wasn't it? Not that I ever watched it, as I seem to remember it was on *sniff* ITV...

Oh, God, yeah, that rings a small bell. Can't have seen it often, but then that time period might coincide with my not having a telly of my own...

Wow! I'm so much younger then you all! I don't think I was even old enough to find it funy went East 17 made a comeback as E-17.

And why is eveyrone in history so fucking dull? First of all, the Irish don't ave the decency to reclaim the word Catholic like black Americans and 'nigger' / lesbians and 'dyke', and now the Evangelicals can't even be bothered to get full-on anti-Cathlic.

Still, at least I've kept 'petty bourgeoise borecore scumfuckery' in two drafts of this essay.
