are "ovations" a bit ovine?

The Arcade Fire album is good!

So are the Salaryman and Young Gods Albums! HURRAH!!!

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:38 (nineteen years ago)

God, this Arcade Fire album is just so boring. I can't get my head around it, it slips off my ears.

yes, Arcade Fire suffer from Difficult Second Album Syndrome in the way Bloc Party most definitely do not/

The best track by far on the new Arcade Fire is No Cars Go - which I have anyway!

The rest of the songs are monotonous - one thing the vast majority of those on Funeral defintiely aren't.

is a standing ovation a sheep on its hind legs?

― Grandpont Genie, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:40 (nineteen years ago)

I don't really see the point of non-12 string acoustics. They just invite the wibble.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:43 (nineteen years ago)

Also, I'm hungry, which isn't helping matters. That lunch was not adequate. Well, actually, it was, but I've been stuffing myself for the past week - HUUUUGE plate of curry and then free sammiches - that a little tiny portion of lentils just isn't doing it for me. :-(

Kate> did i put Black Boned Angel and Birchville cat Motel on your dvdrs?

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:49 (nineteen years ago)

I'm starting to think about buying a jazzmaster myself @ the moment. Help.

― Pashmina, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:50 (nineteen years ago)

Yes. I didn't bring them to work today, though.

OK, I have got to go and get some supplemental food. What can I eat that is not ridiculously junk food?

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:51 (nineteen years ago)

Yoghurt covered flapjacks?

― Mark G, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:51 (nineteen years ago)

Oh man, that Louis ipod ILM thread...

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:54 (nineteen years ago)

bunnies and flowers, bunnies and flowers

― Ed, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:56 (nineteen years ago)

That Passatino geezer is a real piece of work though.

― Dr.C, Monday, 12 March 2007 15:58 (nineteen years ago)

There is no food available for love nor money around here. Took me half an hour to get a few shreds of salad and a flapjack. :-(

I'm not particularly enamoured of LJ's schtick, but Passatino is a vile excuse for a human being.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:18 (nineteen years ago)

I'm hungry now.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:19 (nineteen years ago)

I promised Norman dvdrs ages ago. I really need to start doing them.

Someday.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:19 (nineteen years ago)

None of it is what I really wanted, which was those little pasta bowties with pine nuts, spinach and mozarella.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:20 (nineteen years ago)

I ate too late. The headache and the crankiness are not lifting. :-(

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:39 (nineteen years ago)

How much peach beer do you want from belgium?

― Ed, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

Mmmmmm, peach beer. Can you carry about six of them?

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

This hilariously bad album cover should NOT be wasted on the rolling metal thread.

http://www.limb-music.de/gfx/zandelle/cover_hires_vr.jpg
Can someone please photoshop B&S on that instead of the band?

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

Oi! Belgians!

BEER AND FRUIT DO NOT MIX!

― Grandpont Genie, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:41 (nineteen years ago)

But ... but ... but ... Fruli!

― Forest Pines, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:42 (nineteen years ago)

no buts!

― Grandpont Genie, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:42 (nineteen years ago)

That is not a real album cover. Why are the band standing in the corner like wusses, rather than fighting the Beast themselves?

Unless that is the singer or whoever fighting the Beast.

Also, that one fist seems really disproportionate. Who does it belong to?

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:43 (nineteen years ago)

I am going by motor vehicle so I can brings as much as you like and drop them off if I'm not back to late come thursday. I'll trade you for the LEAD if you like.

― Ed, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:43 (nineteen years ago)

I am not trading the LEAD for beer! No way! I might accept it as rent, though.

I'm worried about space in my fridge, which is still currently filled with pink wine. For the love of god, someone please drink all the pink wine in my fridge.

And no, Mark, this is a LEMBIC which means it is supreme yumminess with fruit.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:45 (nineteen years ago)

What on earth am I going to use for a bedroom table now?

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:46 (nineteen years ago)

Not to be confused with an ALEMBIC, of course.

― Forest Pines, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:46 (nineteen years ago)

I could get you beer crates?

― Ed, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:46 (nineteen years ago)

What am I going to do once I've drunk all the beer in the crates, then?

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:47 (nineteen years ago)

The crates are proper ones made of hard plastic. Throw a throw over the top, and hey presto...

― Ed, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:48 (nineteen years ago)

What does alembic do? Turn LEAD into gold? Ed is about to turn LEAD into beer! How's that for the philosopher's stone?

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:48 (nineteen years ago)

Those plastic things are great for putting amps on top of, actually. Maybe I should move the AC-30 into the bedroom as my night stand. But I just like having a Marshall nightstand.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:49 (nineteen years ago)

They're used for distilling, I think.

― Forest Pines, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:50 (nineteen years ago)

I am yet to be convinced.

These Flemish types even know their fruity beer is wrong!

--- scene - 2003, me in De Hems ---

Curious Me: Could I have a pint of Kriek pls?

Barman: (narrowing eyes) Are you sure?

CM: yes

B: well, try it first (pours 5 fluid oz or so into pint glass and hands to me

(I imbibe)

(no longer C)M: (hands glass back) On second thoughts no thank you.

― Grandpont Genie, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:52 (nineteen years ago)

I think the suprise was in you wanted a pink. Most belgian beers are for drinking by the 25cl.

― Ed, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:53 (nineteen years ago)

No, those Flemish types know that the English are stupid about fruity beer, so they do not want to waste a whole glass on someone when they could be DRINKING IT THEMSELVES.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 16:53 (nineteen years ago)

Nath to thread!

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:12 (nineteen years ago)

Now I want a nap. An hour and a half until I go home.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:12 (nineteen years ago)

A good time to have a nap then. You're not wasting your own time!

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:36 (nineteen years ago)

I made it through my seminar (the last one!) and am home, relaxin'.

― G00blar, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:39 (nineteen years ago)

Finally every one else in the noisy noisy deparment (ANother auditor? We just had one last year!) has gone home, so it's not so bad now. I still have a headache, though.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:40 (nineteen years ago)

Today was a totally shit day on ILX, too. :-(

Ach, Mondays - they should be banned.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:46 (nineteen years ago)

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:50 (nineteen years ago)

Boring, compared to LJ's lovelife.

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:50 (nineteen years ago)

possibly should be emailed to him, that woman is not even remotely in the public eye.

― Ed, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:54 (nineteen years ago)

you have mail, kate

― Ed, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:55 (nineteen years ago)

The websites she uses are for the BDSM community - people into bondage, domination, sadism and masochism.

Among the sites she has used is informedconsent.co.uk - described as the UK's leading BDSM website with more than 98,000 filthy perverted weirdo members

Natasha also organises social gatherings, known as "munches", for like-minded individuals in Edinburgh.

― Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Monday, 12 March 2007 17:58 (nineteen years ago)

Got it and replied, Ed.

Aw, jeez, who CARES, it's not like this woman is posting all over ILX about what she gets up to. Can't the Daily Mail find something else to get in a froth about?

― Masonic Boom, Monday, 12 March 2007 18:00 (nineteen years ago)
