Robbie Williams seems to be looking ultra-smug on purpose, which is cheating.

Robbie Williams seems to be looking ultra-smug on purpose, which is cheating.

Exactly, ditto the Poindexter example. But I guess we're not allowed to guess at intentions.

Part of their joke is their over-the-top smugness, obviously but...

That Paul Weller album looks like a mannequin or a robot. Creepy.

Okay...now that guy in the middle with tinted aviator *IS* definitely a mannequin.

You losers have way too much time on your hands. Especially that Alex in NYC. Get a life for gods sake.

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:01 (twenty-one years ago) link

Flattery will get you nowhere.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:02 (twenty-one years ago) link

Thank god.

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:04 (twenty-one years ago) link

Some truely sad individuals in this world

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:05 (twenty-one years ago) link

As I said on the Iggy/Corrs thread, how do you expect anyone to take you seriously if you lack the courage to put down an e-mail address?

Sorry, Ned. It had to be done. :)

― Michael Daddino (epicharmus), Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:07 (twenty-one years ago) link

As someone replied in the Iggy/Corrs thread freaks like you will continually send loads of shitless, brainless crap into their clean inbox.

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:09 (twenty-one years ago) link

No, I don't have the time to waste on shit like that. I'd just respect you a bit more for having the moxy to stand by your bile. But, fair enough.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:10 (twenty-one years ago) link

How old are you anyway? You're probably only ten trying to pick up another sad and lonely loser.

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:12 (twenty-one years ago) link

Look, if you're not even giving a proper name nor e-mail address, why should I bother divulging anything? All you need to know is available via the search mechanism. Get a life.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:16 (twenty-one years ago) link

You are telling me to get a life? Right...

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:17 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yawn.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:18 (twenty-one years ago) link

Your use of female sarcasm tells me that you're a poof.

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:20 (twenty-one years ago) link

Didn't know sarcasm came with gender signifiers. Moreover, it wasn't sarcasm, it was genuine fatigue.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:22 (twenty-one years ago) link

You needed to write your "genuine fatigue" down? Your digging a bigger hole for yourself loser.

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:23 (twenty-one years ago) link

Isn't it your bedtime yet?

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:24 (twenty-one years ago) link

Oh god it is! 3:30pm, shit i'm half an hour late.

― Hmmm, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:26 (twenty-one years ago) link

Best thread ever.

― Curtis Stephens, Saturday, 11 January 2003 04:39 (twenty-one years ago) link

So everyone looking straight into the camera earnestly or half smiling, especially from above, appears to be smug. Did I get this straight?

― jot eff pe, Saturday, 11 January 2003 13:56 (twenty-one years ago) link

Is it too late to go "oh no!!! FITE!!! oh no!!!" now?

― Daniel_Rf (Daniel_Rf), Saturday, 11 January 2003 14:39 (twenty-one years ago) link

It wasn't even a proper fight! Hmmm was basically dissing himself with Alex standing next to him nodding politely.

Is Ned Raggett's "Neducated" out on a limited edition 24-bit mastered gold audiophile ultradisk yet?

I like the Alanis one

― dave q, Saturday, 11 January 2003 20:08 (twenty-one years ago) link

I like the Pink one. What's she doing looking so smug -- she's been marked down!

I've had numerous people tell me we look like some uber-smug-ass bastiches on our album cover...

Robbie wins, hands down.

Kate! We agree! I was scrolling down and got to Robbie and these precise four words popped into my head, and then ther you were, saying *these exact four words*!

Well call the fucking cops, this can't be right.

Hmm... 'poof'?!
I last heard that in infants school.

How old are you?!

Mercury looks inherently smack-able in each of these. Both great records, tho'.

Buns on the Balcony

seven months pass...

Bono had several names: first, he was "Steinhegvanhuysenolegbangbangbang", then just "Huyseman", followed by "Houseman", "Bon Murray", "Bono Vox of O'Connell Street", and finally just "Bono". "Bono Vox" is an alteration of Bonavox, a Latin phrase which translates to "good voice".

With Bono covers, I had to make a kind of Champions-League system to get it down to 50
