EXCELSIOR is the second solo album by British musician LOLZ Coombes.

I just passed a local Asian builder this morning who has FREE PALESTINE splashed across the front of his van.

i hope it read FOR EVERY CUSTOMER on the back

From the 'worst fifth film in a series' thread:

i love that you skipped almost all of these but still found the time to screen benji: off the leash!

tbh i prefer my initial assumption that you were a die-hard benji fan who was bitterly disappointed by his fifth cinematic outing

"fans used to spend hours in contentious speculation over what benji would be like taken off his leash. well, now the question is answered, but was THIS what we waited seventeen years for? five films and three decades in, it's clear Camp has lost his passion for the series"

i used to get Eagles of Death Metal mixed up w/DFA 1979 because there was something about their aesthetic that seemed similar, plus they each had a Jesse. Now they each have an anti-Islam Jesse.

Jon Anderson of Yes claims to have seen all good people. Perhaps he can help us sort through this?

excelsioring a peep show quote might, but only might, be a new low

Ha, OK, didn't get the reference. It was funnier when it seemed like an absurd non sequitur.

it's always worth searching for saer's posts and then just reading through all of them

one might think of him as our parish priest

More of a natural mystic imo

many more will have to suffer

I'm head over heels in love with saer

let's just

LCD allows middle aged balding journo bro's to imagine they're still down with the kids. "It's got those electro beats right dudes?!?"

except the kids are all over 30. along with Jamie XX it's the new dinner party music. i'll just stick to some Steely Dan or Joni, cheers.

I have never heard them before but whenever I do a bit of work in Perm, there is a poster of their records in one of the local bars. From what I can tell their fanbase is made up of hunchbacks, strongmen and local government officials. I don't know what your experience with bureaucracy is but its had a net negative effect on my anxiety levels. Music doesn't exist in a vacuum, we know this from reading

"Occasionally a scout elf may be forced to rendition a wayward family member to one of our undisclosed 'black' sites. Know that your loved ones are in full care of our highly trained scout elves and will be returned to you safe and sound as soon as the desired level of compliance has been reached. Trust us, and you will have no reason to fear."

pplains' OP on the Elf on a Shelf thread is as hilarious as it is OTM:

This Elf on the Shelf business needs to die down a little. First, you can't call something that started in 2005 "a tradition." O gather 'round children and let me tell you the tradition of the Elf on the Shelf. It was a night that I was downloading Kelly Clarkson mp3s off of Limewire...

Second, yeah I get that the whole narrative of judging children on whether they've been nice or not has always been part of the game, but having a physical representation of Santa's unblinking eye hiding in the corners and sending back reports to headquarters? Just another way that adults in 2040 will think nothing of having government cameras monitoring them in their own homes.

And thirdly, don't touch the elf? Hey, here's a doll in the house BUT DON'T TOUCH IT. Don't hug it. Don't pat it. I get that this artificial rule is written in so [spoiler] the adults can move the elf to its next location [/spoiler], but it strikes me as rather cold.

I'm just so damn sick of hearing about this doll and booklet, available for $29.95 from all major retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Books A' Million.
