Haus alternately infuriates and charms me. Which is really the way it is with most people I know. But damn the man knows how to huggle.

Zoom.

Okay then, how about "yapping arse w/ wheels and guns".

I don't know quite what it would look like, but I want one.

BK: I don't think anyone has suggested that you should be. Or indeed mantioned you very much. There's a point about the Copernican view of the Universe in here somewhere, but for the moment I can only reassure you of the accepted absence of any culpability on your part.

Oh, and new thread on the intricacies of what is and is not "hate speech" here.

if I were dead tomorrow you wouldnt be sorry!

but you'll all be invited to the wake. Im part irish, you know, so it should be worth the trip. there'll be a burnin' afterwards, bring some sticks and marshmallows. will taste funny, but imagine what you can tell your friends!

Ahem.

*Polite cough*.

I'm afraid this is my drama-queeny thread. Feel free to stick around, but I'd suggest starting another one for BK testimonials - otherwise we're going to get all confused.

Yes, this thread has gone distressingly off-topic.

BK, I second the motion that you start your own thread, and I suggest the title "if I were dead tomorrow you wouldnt be sorry."

OK, I've experimentally responded to Zipper on Haus' behalf. Depending on the result there and opinions here, I might try the "yapping arse w/ wheels and guns" insult.

I suppose Haus is alright really. But he is a bit slow for my liking.

21:13 / 18.04.02
Slow like a fox, my friend, slow like a fox...
 
 
Tony Montana
21:30 / 18.04.02
Yeah - A DEAD fox.

Haus is probly the only suit to start a thread about his self with out the silent scream of WAAAAANNNNKKer from the rest of the board.

my feelings towards haus? well there is a thin line between love and hate, fear and respect, huggles and psyhcic breezeblocks of pain. it just depends on my mood.

but even in my blackest moods i still would grudgingly admit thta huas is a nessasary and valued suit on the board.

unless he now corrects my speelings, then hes a twart.

Aussie - it's very kind of you, but I really don't see any need for you to respond to Zipper on my behalf. I don't see that it will achieve anything, and to be honest if he wants to carry on peering into the goldfish bowl searching for meaning that's his call.

Jungle bunny is the Knodge, btw.

This is news? I guess I just assume any of these entertaining yet annoying things is/are The Knowledge. Poor guy has no ears apparently....
 
 
Tony Montana
22:49 / 18.04.02
Pardon?

I'm not the knowledge, btw.

Wouldn't be really funny if half the people in this thread turned out to be alternate online identities for Haus? And if Haus was actually a giant squirrel that found a keyboard, built a computer and modem out of sticks and nuts and leaves, overdosed on cocaine once or twice and died, was rebirthed as a normal sized squirrel and found his old nuts and leaves and sticks computer and now visits Barbelith regularly?

23:14 / 18.04.02
YEAH!!!

I'M IGGYING JOHNNY! HOW'D YOU LIKE THEM APPLES JOHNNY? DO YOU LIKE APPLES? HOW ABOUT ORAGES? OR PEARS? I'VE GOT ALL KINDS OF FRUITY INSULTS I COULD HIT YOU WITH, AND YOU COULD TRY TO HIT ME BACK WITH A SPUD OR A CARROT AND I WOULDN'T BE ANY THE WISER BECAUSE I'M FUCKING IGGYING YOU LIKE FUCK! I'M AN IGGYING FUCKIN' MADMAN!

See, 'The Sadness' made me laugh, he can't be Knodge....

Can he?

Well, at least Chong isn't.

I think.

'Iggy'?

All those capital letters?

But does it matter? As soon as anyone does anything annoying these days, someone jumps up and says 'Knowledge!'

Well, jeez. There are many more assholes in the world, you know - even if that one was particularly boring.

It's like the war against "terrorism", Nick: "The Knowledge" has just become a useful term for That Which Is Not Lith.
 
 
We're The Great Old Ones Now
07:57 / 19.04.02
Could we substitute a less irritating adjective? Like 'planky'? Or 'kesk' (from k-esque)? Or we could just say 'callow' and leave it at that.

I still like Rizla's "Haus *is* the Knowledge" theory...we have become the enemy, he is us...

Maybe he's your dark side. Or you're his.

Oh, I like Zipper, by the way. The person, not the men's magazine, which I may like but have never read. He thinks I may be a sweet guy who is afraid fo rejection. Huggles for Zipper.
 
 
ONLY NICE THINGS
08:44 / 19.04.02
I also like Nick. For "Planky" is mighty.

I still like Rizla's "Haus *is* the Knowledge" theory...we have become the enemy, he is us...

It would be so brilliant if that were true .. it would make my life..

'Callow' is the perfect Knowledge-describing word.

"So, back again are you, Callow?"

Great. That now means that any time a troll pops up, I'm going to have to suffer the mental image of Simon Callow typing away, smugly.



Eesh.
 
 
We're The Great Old Ones Now
13:38 / 19.04.02
Hm. Thus reversing the meaning of the word, for that Callow is a god.

Well, okay. He's a decent actor. And he writes interestingly on the subject.
 
 
Tuna Ghost: Pratt knot hero
17:10 / 19.04.02
Just what does "iggying" mean, anyway?

And am I the only person who really didn't mind The Knowledge?

I love the way you spell, Puck. Don't change a thing

Johnny: 'iggy'=ignore, and 'yes'.
 
 
The Strobe
21:51 / 19.04.02
It took me quite a while to realise that "Iggy" was "Ignore" and not some crude euphamism.

Hence my puzzlement over Knodge's "I'm Iggying Haus" thread. Hideous mental images, etc.
 
 
Cavatina
23:14 / 19.04.02
It's the 'Haus of Death' moniker that conjures up hideous mental images.

That's a shit-haus name for yerself, Haus. Do return to the 'A.E. Hausman' with which you began this thread - much more fun.

And I hope your curiosity is now satisfied.
Requiescat in pace

There once was a young suit called Haus
who feared 'lithers might think him a louse
When he canvassed opinions,
there were few were his minions,
but most thought him in some ways just grouse.
