we should have a general 'thread for having drunk stuff that's not really meant to be drunk like that' so as not to spoil this one tbf

Say Bo to a (Fizzles), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 00:54 (eleven years ago) link

i'm not sure that corporate trainers think like that, i like to think they're just paid to travel round and pretend they do. you'd hope so, i mean, you'd really hope so.

we have to import all of ours from england, i mean without exception any of these people i've ever encountered are english, probably from greater manchester had i to narrow it down. i've just checked and i have been agreed with.

Fernet tastes like Jaegermeister without the syrupy sweetness.
and/or liquid potpourri

b'hurt's tauntin' (darraghmac), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:01 (eleven years ago) link

b'hurt's tauntin' (darraghmac), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:02 (eleven years ago) link

questino (seandalai), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:03 (eleven years ago) link

I nivver knew until one TWO years ago that as sure as eggs is eggs came from a comical pron. of as sure as x is x.

Say Bo to a (Fizzles), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:03 (eleven years ago) link

liquid potpourri is good milo. it's right. I once foolishly compared it to Wallace Stevens' knack for rhyme, but no that was silly. I like it tho.

I rly want to read Ulysses again.

Say Bo to a (Fizzles), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:12 (eleven years ago) link

fuck that's absurd. I'm just sitting here drinking fernet listening to loud music. wtf I know about Irish writing Ulysses or the fuck.

Say Bo to a (Fizzles), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:15 (eleven years ago) link

think i heard a theory once that it already assumes a previous reading and a future reading and therefore can never be read again so much as that each reading is part of the continuous narrative of the reading itself

but this fella was rolled out drunk and a nut for joyce besides iirc

b'hurt's tauntin' (darraghmac), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:16 (eleven years ago) link

yeah and anyone who uses "again" wrt (WITH. REGARD. TO.) Joyce needs dey balls examined with a boot.

Say Bo to a (Fizzles), Wednesday, 30 January 2013 01:19 (eleven years ago) link
