It was fucking hilarious! Biff was clearly a cock. The world air guitar record was amazingly cringeworthy. What happened at the end? I missed the last 15 mins.

Adam (psydoll) is taking the reins on this one. He's the obvious choice. I'll be doing the pre-club entertainment down at the Bassment, where they've started to do some spiffy drink deals on Monday nights. I can't recall the exact details of said offers, maybe one of the Bassment staff could help me out on this...?

According to Fliss, classic cocktails (the expensive ones) will be the price of normal cocktails. Or something.

Oh, the memories. Reading this almost brought a tear to my eye! Shamefully, I also did some of the actions.

nah you had a dance of your very own. the puppet with one string cut dance.

I was always quite partial to watching the vintage goths (Phil in particular) doing the actions to Sin, Head Like a Hole and to the line 'Fist Fuck' from Wish.

i'd only expect that from a promoter of 'obedience school'. well played.

though, as stated in an article in bizarre magazine... causing someone bodily harm, even if consentual, is still against the law. so if you called the fuzz they'd still probably take the guy to the station.

Don't even get me started. Convicting a guy of being an accessory to his own assault was just ludicrous. Punish some real criminals.

The law's so sketchy on that one anyway. It's not the causing of bodily harm that's the problem, it's the causing of actual and lasting damage.

Or staple your safeword to the front door.

Amazing! Best idea ever! If anyone hears cries of anguish coming from my flat anytime soon, just check for a sign reading 'Aubergine'. If you can't find it, I'm in trouble. And not the good kind of trouble

My tongue's so far in my cheek it looks like I'm blowing the invisible man.

Mine too.

I'm interested in seeing the old film "The 300 spartans" to see how similar they are.

It's not great to be honest. And camp as fuck. All the Spartans look like pussies. Although Xerxes is hilarious in it, despite being the complete opposite of Xerxes in 300.

Follow this easy to use chart:

Are the screams for 'help'? -> Phone police

Are the screams for 'harder'? -> Phone the Daily Mail

what about if the screams are in a no means yes, stop means go kind of context?

What if you phone the cops and it turns out they were just having a little bit of consensual BDSM fun?

I find cilit bang scrapes all the skin off your fingers. It's lethal. Am loving the new unashamedly un-pc ad where Barry yells that more women have been switching to cilit bang.

Snap.

My mum loves him too, she has to be the only 50-something year old listening to Danko, in Aberdeen at least.

And he may come across as a cocky bastard but he's written some ace songs about break ups from a girl's pov. 'Strut' is an awesome song to listen to when you feel all shitty and stuff. So he's a cocky git who is in touch with his feminine side. And he has an obscenely long tongue.

And he knows the lovercall baby.

I love Danko so much I got a Danko tattoo. Which he's seen and loves and wants to put on a t-shirt.

Not sure if it would be easier tbh, i would say they would be under alot more pressure simply because hardcore is lesser known that rock in the mainstream, thus making it harder for them to break through. I would also say hardcore would get less media attention also making it even more harder to break through and become noticed on a widescale range.

Would be interesting to see the contract and talks that happened between minus and the new lable.It could of easily been written into contract. Maybe minus saw the financial gain in order not to say no. As i said before it seems too big a swing musically for me to not ask questions about it. Those questions weren't answered when i posed them to the band, which even deepens the matter for me.

Did your e-mails to Minus look something like this:

Dear Minus

Why the fuck did you guys sell out and change genre? You bunch of fucking sell outs! Don't you care about the fans? You should have stuck to making non-sellouty hardcore. Why?????

Love rune

He'll be 32 in July. Or August.

Like every time everyone decides to dress up as Kiss and you always expect me to dress up as Peter Kriss? Bastards.

Oh one time! One time! And that was years ago, after the rest of us had already decided on our costumes and you were still young and impressionable. And don't deny it, cos remember how we talked you into doing Obedience School?

that can't be right......senior staff geologists with 10-20 years experience dont even get 100k...let alone fresh hires straight out of uni.

Oops I got mixed up on the geologist front. That's 100k in dollars. The 35k managers thing still applies though.

Oil companies are going nuts for Petroleum Geologists just now. I think it was Chevron just offered massive bonuses to get their PGs to agree to stay on another 5 years or something. It's insane!

No one wants to be Peter Kriss, not even Peter Kriss.

The best thing about Peter Kriss is the tattoo he has of his own face on his arm. That's better than Beth even.

The only thing worse than being Peter Kriss would be being a tribute band version of Peter Kriss.

Remember when a homeless man pretended to be Peter Kriss and then the real Peter Kriss confronted him on Phil Donahue? That just goes to show said homeless man was clearly on crack.

Are you kidding?! Cage is one of those actors where the question of "why do people keep employing him?" comes up again, and again, and again, and again.

I agree. He's made some amazing films but he's wooden as fuck. Being Francis Ford Coppolla's nephew has a lot to do with his career.

What a pile of balls! Went to see Number 23 last night only to be told there was a 'technical difficulty.' The bint first offered us Norbit instead and was almost vommed on at the prospect so decided on Ghost Rider. I wasn't expecting much but Christ on a cross, it was just awful. Guess they spent their script budget on making the CGI really cool.

I assume thatd be after you gain experience. Usual term is around 2 years. Straight business graduates can usually expect 16-18k starting wage depending on field can be a bit more - without relevant hands on experience (within the larger companies at least). The higher salaries are only really going to the engineering graduates and they start at around 26-28k then shoot up at an alarming rate with experience.

That's not what they're telling recruits these days. Graduate schemes are offering 1 year placement and straight onto 35k. That's just BP though, because they have so many new projects on the go or in the pipelines just now that need managers.

Petroleum geologists on the other hand are on 100k after a summer internship. Also with BP.

What about the BP graduate scheme for managers? With a business agree you could be looking at a starting salary of 35k.

It's Chinese.

Fucking brilliant show. You really should watch the series before you watch Serenity (for those who haven't seen it yet) although it will make you even more upset at the end.

That's what I did. Don't think I'd have actually thought much of Serenity if I'd seen them the other way round. Firefly is truly amazing. Never thought I'd actually like it but fuck me, I can't get enough of it.

Watched it on the deck of Revolution. Was pretty spectacular.

The Mikes from Bassment (one of which is Mike from Asylum Books and Games) are gonna each shave off one half of their beard so when they stand together they have a complete beard if they can raise a grand. Speak to Charlie doorman if you're interested or PM me if you don't know him and I'll pass on your pledge.
