Indeed. Joe Public, for example, wouldn’t be constantly followed by the press and scrutinised so carefully. He could, and often does in my experience, get up to much the same stuff as Amy and Pete without ever running into a policeman at all and go happily about his day.

If, Bob Marley forbid, Amy does come a cropper one day, I’d lay odds it will…[Read more]

I’m Waiting For The Man ~ The Velvet Underground

Runway likes her milky fluids more salty than sweet, I heard.

Innit, though, Runners, me duck.

His responsibility is to you and the baby now. It’s summer, so no fuss for a bit, but plenty of time to be arranging a deferral with his college if that’s what’s going to be needed. They’ll be quite accommodating. Also, he should see his Chancellor’s fund and Student Union about arranging a crisis loan.

I think Matty’s right. Sky were the ruination of boxing in this country in a similar fashion.

You’re a Kentish woman, aren’t you, Gillingham or something? Have a proper word with him and tell him to get his arse in gear.

I don’t think she’s doing anything wrong at all. I think that fellow of hers needs a talking to.

Define “proper job” :wink:

More than twenty, part-time, lazy arsed hours, I should think. Sometimes it just has to be done. I remember Geoff taking the piss about me taking a van driver’s job over Christmas a while back in order to keep the wolfie from the door. I’m not ashamed in the least.

Quite nice self indulgent twaddle, though. I think the main contributors are to be congratulated in this section.

Tell the baby’s father to get a proper job. That should bring in some more money.

Bumble and tumble and
Well, I’ll go to the foot of our stairs
Oh, that hurt
That’s broken

Bumble and tumble and
Fancy trying to hold on to the stick
Old stiff fool
That is broken

Bumble and tumble and
And I’m on my back, too hurt to move
It is late
Certainly broken

The more a man cultivates the arts, the less often he gets an erection.
He creates a more and more perceptible divorce between the spirit and the brute.
Only the brute gets really good erections, and copulation is the lyricism of the masses.
To copulate is to aspire to enter into another – and the artist never emerges from himself.

Is dub allowable if we invoke the Pink Ting Soda rule variation?

Police & Thieves ~ Junior Murvin

I’ve been thinking about what you have done to me
The damage is much deeper than you’ll ever see
Hit me like a hammer to my head
I wonder were you pushed or were you led?

Why did you do it? Why did you do that thing to me?
Why did you do it? Why did you do that thing to me?
The only one who knows the truth,
Man, that’s him, me and you.

I believe the semantic difficulties inherent in the argument could be resolved by employing the descriptive term blades to the items in question.

Guns for show, knives for a pro. Or so I’m told.

Between our eastward and our westward sea
The narrowing strand
Clasps close the noblest shore fame holds in fee
Even here where English birth seals all men free
Northumberland.

The sea-mists meet across it when the snow
Clothes moor and fell,
And bid their true-born hearts who love it glow
For joy that none less nobly born may know
What love…[Read more]

What the devil is the matter with you, man? Snap out of it, you big girl.

Fellows, if you’re arn
I will spin a yarn
That was told to me by Able Seaman Jones.
Once he had the blues
So he took a cruise
Far away from night-clubs and from saxophones.
He said, “Yo Ho, I’ve made a certain port
And when you talk about real he-man sport”:

I actually think there may be something to all of this.

Oh, wait a minute. No. No I don’t.
