One of the things I like about Barbelith these days is how easy it is to fit in around here if you're JUST A NORMAL BLOKE. Y'know, just a normal guy, not in the sense of being a chav or a pikey, but just someone who's down to earth. A normal red-blooded guy, who isn't homophobic or anything but just doesn't want to read about leather outfits or whatever in any kind of detail. (Now two girls on the other hand, LOL, you all know what I'm talking about!) You can read comics and still be a NORMAL BLOKE (those Vertigo ones are great, like HBO or something, "that bloke's got a face like an arse!, hahaha). You can be into the occult, phew, I certainly wouldn't mind meeting a few witches! And y'know, I'm interested in politics, can't stand that George Bush, what an idiot eh, listen to the way he talks!

Anyway, this is the long-overdue THREAD FOR NORMAL BLOKES.

Cor, that Rachel Stevens, huh? I'm not really into her so-called music, more of a Kaizer Chiefs man myself, Ruby Ruby Ruby, la la la la, but I certainly would! She wouldn't need to do any singing, or even talk! Haha!

Would reply but I'm too busy shutting down debates about police brutality with phrases like "You've just gotta get the job done".

Suedey! SHOT FOR MEAT!

15:26 / 29.03.07

Anyone got the new issue of NUTS?

Women! Don't ask for any help on a Thursday! Hahaha, those ads still crack me up every time!

15:28 / 29.03.07

Why do you do this to yourself? Why?

Fuck the Kaiser Chefs, the Stones are the true gods of rock and shall never be topped. That Keith Richards, I would so fucking have him, man.

But not in a gay way or anything. Just, like, to have a beer with.

15:48 / 29.03.07

You will regret starting this thread, Flyboy. Mark my words.

Steady on, Jack. In the world of Normal Blokes, to betray a hint of emotion about anything apart from "Under the Bridge" (very moving, All Saints version also surprisingly good) is tantamount to putting on a dress and kneepads.

Normal Blokes are very reasonable. We're reasonable about everything. We're even reasonable about how unreasonable other people are.

I know a heap of Normal Blokes who like putting on dresses, Haus mate. I don't know about you, but over here it's tradition at the knees-up after the game for the players to put on nighties and dance on the tables. It's actually quite accepted now, quite okay, on a par with cow-tipping.

Anyone tipped any good-looking cows lately?

16:09 / 29.03.07

Where I'm from, mate, blokes putting on dresses and skirts ain't fucking normal.

Except at fancy dress parties, but that's just a laugh, innit.

16:11 / 29.03.07

Personally i think Karl Pilkington is a god.

I have recently infililtrated the world of normal blokes. Working in a LOCAL pub. Sometimes I just want to stand up a shout "No, the P*kis are NOT 'after' your job or your daughters you mysoginistic, racist, card carrying BNP FUCK".

But then I remember what happened to the last barman that spoke out of turn to a specific group of our customers and I bite my tongue.

*sigh*

MattShepherd: I WEDDED KALI!

16:33 / 29.03.07

What happened? Did they bite his tongue?

On this side of the Atlantic, we view the use of the term "bloke" as a bit... suspect. The British, you know. They're very nice dressers. And many of them sing in high voices.

Hmm.

What a wonderful, topsy-turvy place Canada must be, to employ such a contrary usage of the word "bloke".

Just sink to your knees and be thankful you don't have to read posters advertising WKD while waiting for the bus.

16:45 / 29.03.07

It's actually quite accepted now, quite okay, on a par with cow-tipping.

Having grown up in an ag town, I find your sarcasm to be offensively classist. And racist against Americans.

16:47 / 29.03.07

Hah, yeah, but I bet you do have a wicked side. I mean, all blokes like a laugh.

Don't you like a laugh?

WKD is for happyslapping hoodies and slappers, though. Normal blokes drink Stella.

You need to lighten up! Don't you have anything better to do than post on the internet? I'm off now to the pub and then I'll be sexy wrestling with the lady later. You could do with getting laid yourself, I bet!

16:59 / 29.03.07

Anyway, it's not classist to hate white trash, they're the ones who are really racist and whatever. Those good old boys are all in the Klan! That's just common sense!

17:11 / 29.03.07

Hi! I'm a girl that likes regular normal guys who buy me presents. Especially new shiny things I see in ads. Oh and I drink charda- white wine. I really only like to eat the garnish off my bf's plate rather than have a whole big plate myself. That way you can save the money to buy me more shiny things!

Right now I'm running late to a bik- hot yoga class and then later I need to stop at my stylist's to pick up some product. I'll be out around 9 with my gfs to check out what you 'blokes' are up to!

!!KISSES!!

Oh and here's a pic from my last modeling job:

What unnatural forces could twist a body into that shape?

I mean...yeah, hott. On the high voice deal: a kid I grew up with always had a hard time being accepted as hard, although he was a little badass drummer, because he had an exceptionally sweet and clear tenor voice. Like an angel, really.

17:25 / 29.03.07

Nice! And before any of you get excited, there's nothing wrong with telling a girl she's beautiful.

17:57 / 29.03.07

XK, I wish u wr my girlf cuz you look rlly gr8. I cudn't buy you many two many pretty things cuz we'd be too busy in bed if you get what I mean AHAHAHAHA

I would reply to this thread, but I'm too busy working on my rippling six-pack, glutes and abs - but in a manly way, where, afterwards, I also shower in a manly way.

So there.

18:04 / 29.03.07

Sorry to be late to the party but I was busy doing push ups while watching 300 again.

What? I had a geek download it for me.

18:25 / 29.03.07

300 is totally gay.

18:28 / 29.03.07

Lol nice 1 Flyboy, about time m8... anyone remember that thread for girls only and another one for Gays only (! I remember going wtf about that... think we had one for "transgender" only, fuck me well I suppose the ladyboys need somewhere to chat about what it was like to have a nob, wateva! Lol)

just as well it says "girls can post too", dont want to be all lads together in here, no offence but you never know on Barbelith which way some1 swings, well Ganesh left so at least i aint going to be feeling his trunk on my arse lol no offence m8, no offence. Just keep ur hands off Daniel Radcliffe u paedo!! LOL no offence

mods how abt changing the description (? wateva) to "girls can post as long as they put up a genuine recent self-pic", we got to keep the standards up, btw XK very nice, very nice indeed, got a bf? Want another 1? lol my PM box is always open. just joking love (unless ur single)

anyway made me lol seeing some1 up there talk abt WKD, fucking hell what are those metro sexual ponces in advertising thinking about, no normal lad would drink WKD, that shits bright fuckin blue, orange and pink, its a day glo sign saying "I'm A Poof" lol

MODS again can we have it so no gay, girls (except nice 1s), metero sexual, transsexual, lady boys, etc etc, can post on this thread? like the feminists had that rule lads couldnt post on their thread. This is a SAFE SPACE for normal lads, (plus nice birds) no barbelith weirdos can post? OK....? fair enough they have their threads, now we've got our own little bit of the internet where we can be ourselves and relax ! fuck me (not literally LOL it makes a diff not worrying about if ur talkin to a gay, or a chick wiv a dick!)

PS any1 else lookin 4ward to GRAND THEFT AUTO FOUR its out in 2 hrs lads!!!

PPS any telly recs for tonite, post them up!

18:39 / 29.03.07

This is making me sad because it's basically just clever people doing impressions of what they think normal blokes are like, (which is stupid and bigoted and not able to type properly,) and what normal women are like (which is stupid and unable to spell Bikram).

This definition of normality is lost on me anyway.

I know it's supposed to be a joke. But then there's that whole ITS A JOKE thing and it just feels a bit like Barbouroboros . It's making me miserable because for me it's not funny, it's just elitist.

Oh forget it. Perhaps I'm too normal. Clearly I'm just stupid and not in the club because I'm really confused about it.
