Ooh you bugger, I thought it was me. Me! Something to do with "...even a whole ring of sheds around the Earth wouldn't dur dur dur dur dur-dur..." But I could be wrong, or I might have been quoting from Roth to start with. All so, so long ago... *stares into the middle distance with rheumy eyes*

After a long, wonderful post on the new Matrix movie, where I found myself agreeing with him wholeheatedly for one of the first times EVER, Flux saith:

Maybe I'm just not a fun guy. I doubt that, though.

Has the phrase 'hoist with his own petard' ever been more apt?

Possibly a little mean, but hey. Still gotta love that big long Matrix review though, Flux-a-me-lad. Said nearly everything I was gonna.

From ...>0<... in a big horrible debate in Policy about who said what to whom and when (and possibly why).

Since this thread has gone not askew or awry but has flown off the tracks, skipped across a four lane highway causing massive amounts of peripheral damage to innocent bystanders and their vehicles, and then bombed off the turn pike to smash through the roof into some poor unsuspecting individual’s living room, it is an even greater mistake that could not possibly be foreseen by my limited human view.

Really just for the Devastating Flying Thread imagery it provokes.

Kegboy in the Late Shift:

WP: I've been editing a four-hundred page document sofr typos for the last five hours and it's not pretty

Mazarine: Jesus. How could you possibly spot a typo after five hours?

Kegboy: After 5 hours they have to leave the water...oh wait, that a hippo

Hitler had the right idea, unfortunately, he went for the wrong Jews.

Bendt Chromeo, in the "May Warning" threads, once again reminds us that sometimes the line between mental illness and just not being a very nice person can be a very thin one...

Spangle: Talking of holy wars - apparently they've found a huge stash of sharpened protractors, compasses and slide-rules in the mountains of Iraq.

Yes, that's right - a whole cache of weapons of maths instruction!



......where did I put my coat?

Oooh, an Iraq joke I hadn't heard yet.

Gypsy Lantern nails Catholicism:

Which seems to me like a much healthier and more plausible concept than the vague notions of some almighty bearded guy in the sky organising an international army of old men in black dresses to guilt-trip people into signing songs about him in beautiful old buildings.

Cock flavoured ice cream, oh yes... XOC

It emblazoned a very funny image on my mind.

Well, something was confusing the bees for sure because they were paying no attention to the birds. And likewise.

Xoc is the cleverest. : )

E. Randy Dupre in the Big Brother thread on the highly irritating Tania:
I don't get the Tania thing at all. She's constantly got a face like a bulldog licking piss off a nettle and her favourite topic of conversation is Tania.

Bint-bashing at its finest...

Stoatie - the Mail actually printed a list of Greek products to boycott

H.I.R. - Logic no doubt being number 1 on that list.


H.I.R is both big and clever.

Fraely Boyce turning down Rizla's offer of a mixtape:

Thanks, but no thanks. I only like Genesis. This is mainly for the keyboard work of Tony Banks, probably the most exciting and underrated member of Genesis. Phil Collins is okay but he looks like a big toe.

Ganesh observes his favourite BB contestant's talent for screwing up-

Fed would fail the task of being injected with testosterone. He'd accidentally puncture a femoral artery and kill himself before he reached the cage.

Beautifully executed words.

PSI-Remembruce in the Hate and Anger thread:

You'd only be caning fierce chalice with the boyfriend, and we all know how bad that is for you.

I have no idea what it means, so it must be true.

This is such a classic, I never thought I'd see its like on the 'Lith but...in the Special K thread on the Magic forum...

Gypsy Lantern says From henceforth, sex magic should be referred to as 'fuckery' and sigil magic as 'wankery'. Ohhhh!

Ken Kniesel (x-fan)on the Princess Diana ressurection in x-statix

just hope they'll leave out all that confusing Crimson Dawn crap when they bring Diana back to life. What a headache! I just want a nice, normal, blonde, British Diana with her regular telepathy and none of that thong ninja stuff.

A double-header from the 'Aliens Versus Predator film' thread...

Distillable Mass Wasn't the point of the first 2 Predator films reliant on the extreme heat of both the city in a sweltering summer and the tropical climate of the jungle. What good is their infared sight in the testicle swallowing Arctic?

Just for the phrase 'testicle swallowing Arctic'.
&
videodrome There really isn't a plot to the video game(s). You choose one race, and then kill the other two. It's a social parable, really.

Self-explanatory really.

Panic in Books:

After working at my neighborhood used bookshop for a couple weeks, I noted:

1. Books with Wizards on the cover sell.

2. Books with Spock on the cover sell.

Therefore I shall write a book featuring Spock fighting a Wizard.

After a few more weeks (shelving and arranging the mystery paperbacks) I revised it thusly:

I shall write a book in which a Wizard is murdered, and Spock is accused of the crime. A librarian and her cat then set out to clear his name.

Nick gets tired of repeating himself ('My anti-harry potter rant'):

arcboi: 'I'm still waiting to hear a good reason for reading them.'

Nick: Because they're fun, you bingohead. They won't make you attractive to your chosen gender or give you the wings of an eagle. They cannot solve the world energy crisis or feed the starving. They are fun kids' books, and if they did nothing else but make millions of kids happy, that alone would make them worth reading.

Ah, sweet clarity...

"Someone should bingbang him on his bonkbonk."

My camera has a special feature that makes everyone look ugly, even me. I probably should have just bought one, instead of stealing it from that old Gypsy fortune teller.

Qalyn in the "Zombies and Beer" thread. Makes me wonder where my parents got my face.

From the same thread as Cass mentions above, the anti HP one in books, Anna deals a gem to arcboi's mention of "IMHO":
I really don't think that you consider your own opinion humble.

Ooooh scathing. Become a teacher Anna!

Two from the thigh-eating thread...

Flyboy: Rage, I sense your anger. I can teach you to hone that anger until it is a precise and powerful weapon with which you can strike down my enemies. I mean your enemies.

Ask me how!

Fridge: Do not give in to consternation. Consternation leads to pique, and pique leads to snippiness, and snippiness leads to the Bit Greyish Side.
