NAMING RIGHTS THREAD: Liverpool really won't win the Premiership 2010-2011

fair to say Tolkien wasn't awes at moral ambiguity or any growed-up emotion rilly

he'd fit in on a football thread then

There, I believe, it is

Bilbo Balde
Wayne Baggins

Samir Nazgulri

Shelob the keeper

rory delap
lee cattermole

Saruman on

^never read/watched LOTR but knows an orc when he sees one

xpost

darren ent

right you fuckers, to a tolkien thread. Now.

Gone are the days when a lull in actual news could see a thread take a pointless diversion into bad punning. We should probably delete the five-a-side/pub team name thread.

i was talking to the 'but is it rly important contemp'ry literature' wankers tbh.

:D hey i said it was okay for 10yr-olds

so is disdain for classic-beyond-classic storytelling that doesnt happen to tick all yr guardian cardcarrying 21st century morality boxes

THE RADGE

take it to the Tolkien thread, mistah

i was talking to the 'but is it rly important contemp'ry literature' wankers tbh.

eh i dunno beyond nv who's rly arguing this but props for trying out as the culchie littlejohn

it's just some kids stuff ppl cling onto when they might have outgrown afaict (like star wars etc)

kinda dorky but harmless

I don't read the fucking Graun btw

thought for the day

is caring about football another thing best left to kids? does football infantilize its followers? do yall still colect panini cards?

My daughter collects Match Attax so I don't have to

have never pretended not to be the culchie littlejohn, know yr ilx history son

well i just boiled it down for you in a display name suitable epithet

is caring about football another thing best left to kids? does football infantilize its followers? do yall still colect panini cards?

Yes. Yes. Stopped in 1982, started again for WC2006, stopped again.

Best thing ever was getting a stocking full of Premier League stickers on Christmas Day.

Damn I bowed out too early - Charles N'Smaugbia, there's one just for you nakh. Also louis, you're supposed to be ilm's self-styled Grand Vizier of Prog, you've got to get Tolkein into your life

I'M SICK OF TELLING MRS VAGUE THAT PROG IS NOT ABOUT PIXIES AND DRAGONS HOW DARE YOU MISCHARACTERIZE OUR MUSIC SIR

Grand Vizier of Prog

so lj was a prodigious albanian slave boy abducted and inculcated within the civil service of prog?

you skype a girl for two hours and look what happens

keep it above the waistline, sonny

that's right, nakhchivan's encyclopedic knowledge of eastern european culture and history

Read The Hobbit, forgot every word. Tried to read LOTR, gave up 100 pages in. Not for me. Also I tend to avoid the more openly Tolkientastic prog. I don't even like the word 'prog'. It's used to excuse a lot of really dry, indulgent crap.

btw let's talk football now plz

damn hope u were emulating thebig_sam's candelit skype seshes w/ sralex with yr nz qt

assuming she likes lol king crimson

ttly and whats more i showed her the 'snow' on my 'driveway', it was very 'deep' and actually not visible on webcam but there are some great foxprints - love animal gaits

xp

she probably would like king crimson a lot!!! gotta show her them acshully

ok guys back to tolkien, pls

hey ismael thank you!

I aim to please. Was cursing you though when it wouldn't squeeze through the large letter slot and I had to pay parcel rates.

is that gallas and lennon? also lol

also lol

balotelli, jerome boateng

think that's adebayor in the foreground

wtflol

i think mancini shd let balotelli kill boateng, give him the gun in necessary

sometimes you just have to make allowances with a player of that quality

also he won't want to go to ac milan cuz kpb would seek revenge

~if~ necessary

is balotelli really all that?

mancini seems to think so

maybe mancini feels like he has to act that way, but he's not exactly getting cantona-level payback or anything

ah the lad's barely had a game yet, and his contribution to the harmless gaiety of the nation has paid for him already

he's a great talent

also a bit unhinged

in a time when barry-de jong-touré is considered a midfield, entertainment can be in short supply

boateng shouldve known u don't mess with a man wearing skull-n-crossbones wooly gloves

Hoping this started with snowballs.
