Mr Wilson would often lose his temper with his young neighbour, Dennis and his sissy 80's lefty parents. Oddly, the ghost train/mine that was at the end of the street in the show's title sequence was never seen again, probably because rolling around underground tunnels in a minecart is the type of thing you'd only do once.

Indeed, I was just away to request such a time table!

Cool, but sounds a little like the X-Files theme . I agree a key change would be nice, but that's still pretty interesting.

Midge Ure friendly moshulu muppet? I guess it's vaguely music related now.

Bis did music for the TV show. FACT!

For the record, I think stalking people 'for a laugh' is totally deplorable, while on the other hand, stories about people dressing up as ninjas (no matter what the circumstances are...and yes, I'm including those "ninja" attacks in the Congo a little while back) are inherently funny. The mathematical equation is as follows: Ninja (jumping + traffic) = TEH LOL!!!11! I guess what I'm saying is that I'm not going to be made to feel "evil" because I found that story amusing (definitley because ninjas are one of my "laugh buttons", situated next to my penis) but to see the mentally ill as nothing but a source of amusement is really pretty shitty. I think Flash seems to have the right idea. He understands that some of these people have sad stories but doesn't see the point of denying that sometimes life is pretty funny. I think this thread started out fairly innocently and has went a little dark in a couple of places. Just keep it light. Think about why you're posting stuff. Blarg.

The superflous comma after the word "months"?

"I'm having one of those flashback flashback flashbacks"

Lost In the Supermarket by The Clash- Their best song? Dunno, but my personal favorite.

Hmm, recognise that Garth dude.

Lust of Life by Iggy Pop. 'cos of Trainspotting. Or a Korn song with bagpipes. That never stopped being funny.

Just listened to Lady Scarface by Lydia Lunch and I'm away to put on LIfe Without Buildings.

Of course, a story about Nicky and Ninjas... we could take the fist syllable from "Nicky" and the last from "Ninja" and call them "Ninjas"...hey...wait...

This is like Ghost World: hillarious yet slightly sad. I get the impression none of will ever learn that we're just as bad and pathetic as the world around us in our own ways and then fuck off on a bus, though.

His name is Erland and he's a top, top, top bloke. Used to talk to him almost every lunch time while at school.

One of the twins is known in the skateboard community as Mental Martin. He stole my brothers hat and my brother didn't want it back because it had probbaly got "minkified". There is a legend that Mental Martin one tried to jump over a moving car while dressed as a ninja and broke his leg. I don't care if this isn't true, because even if it's fiction, it's possibly the best tale ever. Stripey's right. We are kind of disgusting, but my story involved ninjas.

Why are you blowing the Korn thing out of proportion? They're pretty terrible, but they are, for all intents and purposes, a metal band. They were only used as an example of a metal band you're likely to hear in a shop. Did you sell punctuation when you worked in retail? I ask because you're clearly out of stock right now. Your stubborness is beginning to really get to me now. I'd love to walk into Virgin tomorrow and hear the band that'd change my life. That's unlikely though. You what to spread the music you love? Write fanzines; make mix tapes; form a band; start (productive) threads on message boards.

I still don't understand what you mean. I imagine you think people just hang around record shops all day not buying anything, leaning on the counter, listening to the music...wait; shit, I've only gone and described One Up on a Saturday, nevermind. ;p Seriously though, shops aren't a form of media primarily designed to make your life better (and neither is the media, really). On the whole HMV; a subsiduary of Cyberchemtech, plc; a member of the Omega Group don't give a shit if you discover Burzord Bloodbath or whatever in their shop. They'd like it if you read about them in Terrorizer and went and spent 16.49 on their album though.

What I've heard is fantastic.
