"at marvel we want it to be known that the real heroes are the insane guy with the gas mask, the gun weilding psycho, a jumping chick with a rope, and she-magneto"

Elijah D. Pressed tried to figure out why Marvel had a ridiculous fantasy painting of the cover of their cops/firemen/paramedics comic The Call here.

I see the full title of Bromhall's book is The Eternal Child An Explosive New Theory of Human Origins and Behaviour. Bit of hubris there surely? Can't help but feel a serious piece of scientific work would have been less self-aggrandisingly titled. I suppose he got the idea from Darwin's The Absolutely Fabulous Origin of Species, Freud's The Fucking Amazing Interpretation of Dreams and Hawking's A Brief but It'll Make You Come in Your Pants History of Time.

Ditto. Coffee flew here. I cannot think of a better response to a Daily mail pop-scientist who reckons that men are becoming more gay and more infantile (but it's the women's fault). Bravo Xoc:Knob Goblin!

Xoc, in the CCC thread, like seven minutes ago:

Excellent comic timing.

ah, it makes me happy I'm a geek....

"The way your Daddy looked at it, that light-sabre was your birthright. And he'd be damned if any storm-troopers were gonna put their greasy hands on his boy's birthright. So he hid it in the one place he knew he could hide somethin'. His ass. Five long years, he wore this light-sabre up his ass. Then when he died of dysentery, he gave me the light-sabre. I hid with uncomfortable hunk of metal up my ass for two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the light-sabre to you."

Fuck me. 25 hours reading a week? I probably did about 25 hours reading during the whole of my degree.

Cholister and I were clearly working from the same study guide.

Holy shit!

Nightcrawler beats up the fucking President! In the Oval Office!

Well... wouldn't you?

Jack Fear makes my week. It's not the same without the picture, though, is it? So let's see it again.



Ahhh. I grin and giggle every time I look at it.

One factoid of interest is that one of the disaster scenarios discussed before the mission and being hashed over now (let's try to keep in mind that the "bad tile" thing is one theory among several) involved collision with orbital debris. That would be either chunks of man-made garbage or bits of matter caught in Earth's gravity: barbeliths.

Beat Qalyn is - IIRC - the only poster ever to use the word barbelith in its technical sense. Hence, obsessive collector of 'Lith trivia that I am, I'm putting it here.

Haus writes very clever, or very self-aware, or actually very not a cock, for that matter

I'm still wary of him, but that one made tea spurt out of my nose. In a good way.

From the space shuttle jokes thread:

Bill Posters: The thread title was clear enough warning. If you don't like this thread, don't read it. If you don't like me, there's an ignore button.

Gentelman Loser: Then I hope you don't get too upset when I tell you to go fuck yourself with a chainsaw, jerk off.

That line is without a doubt the best 'fuck off' I've ever had; brutality and creativity are marvellously juxtaposed... it makes me very proud.

Tezcatlipoca-

To translate Haus' response for you, innercircle, being a smart-arse requires you to be smart as well as an arse.

I think that about sums it up...

"I particularly like how the objects you see "through" the coat do not line up with anything around the wearer and are way off the mark in terms of perspective geometry."

I came onto this thread specifically to rant about Ms Brite, only to find she has already been recognised as painfully shite. Even her name makes me grind my teeth. She makes Ann Rice look like Christopher Marlowe.

Oh, yeah, aren't there Mozart concertos that will make you smarter while you listen to them? It's like getting one of those boosts in Mario World, only it's for your brain, not for knocking turtles and shit out of the way.

Bill Posters just so summed up the joys of the Rothkoid's virtual housewarming thread, for me at least:


[by converse] I think Ret means his shoes. Riz threw on my backside, and most of the rest of me. Not only have I been bukkaked by the 'lith's resident stately homos, but I am now bathed in Rizla's slowly congealing vom. What a week.

Flyboy, countering the strange notion that a Clash tribute on US soil was somehow a terrible thing because they had a few negative feelings about American foreign policy:

Of course the Clash should only receive tributes in the UK - don't you remember their classic punk anthems like 'I'm So Happy With The British Government', 'UK Foreign Policy Is So Great' and 'English and Proud'?

Or maybe I'm thinking of The Jam.

"...go scorched earth on his ass." -Tanngelus (currently.)

When going medievel on someone's ass just isn't enough, or you don't want to reference Tarrantino. I look forward to an opportunity to go scorched earth on someone's ass, or at least to tell them that I intend to.

Mister Six is a bitter, bitter fellow:

Give us a break, DC. You're not that cool. It's like trying to get laid with a gal who becomes less cute with every statement about her trip to Japan, love of Cabaret Voltaire and ghost paintings. You start to realize that she is not as cool as she wants you to think she is and also... you're going to be bitterly boxing the clown later on, screwing your forehead afterward thinking, 'why did I pay for her dinner at all?'

OUCH! Ladies, it's always best to go Dutch...
