Can we all just swear about Andrew Motion? 'He's shit.'


For example.

The boy Falconer brings literary criticism to a new, more honest, and perfectly accurate level.

Definately not top of the ladder. Or even on the ladder. Walking underneath the ladder, possibly.

This exchange is priceless.

Chairman Moaminstoat: Rothkoid, are you Universal Life Church too?

Rothkoid: Nah. World Christianship Ministries. At least, until they tried to defrock me after they read my weblog. Keep tryin', churchy!

Videodrome: I read Roth's denomination as 'World Championship Ministries'.

Rothkoid: Man, that's the name of my next religion. You haven't been redeemed unless it's through a guy in a nitro-burning drag racer.

Rizla: amen to that.

What can I say? He makes me laugh.

I can't believe it. We are officially a rogue state, and our Flash Gordon is a wee Scots sex pixie. This is all very, very wrong.

Yesss! I got barbequoted - now I really feel like part of the gang, nay, mythology of this messageboard. Seriously pleased about this - cheers, the Stoat.

I only came here to relate a beautiful exchange I came across today, here:

KODGER LE NODGE: what does erudition mean?

BIO K9: It means your penis is hard.

There's something beautiful about sharing, and communicating with others, isn't there?

Qalyn: Why not create incentives for good behavior rather than prohibitions against bad behavior? Maybe a servitor who, when invoked by respecting others' boundaries or resolving conflicts through negotiation rather than aggression, gives out magickal goodies of some sort. I'm not qualified to make recommendations on the goodies, I guess. Maybe feelings of mutual respect and pride in one's own community spirit would be enough.

Haus: We need a servitor for that? Oy vey...

In the midst of disheartening war coverage, this gleeful slant on Bill Posters (my hero) and friend pissing off the constabulary at a protest:

Bill: Can I go now?
Cop: No.
My mate: Why?
Cop: 'Cos we haven't done what we're gonna do to you yet.
My mate: What are you gonna do?
Cop: I'm gonna piss on you.
My mate (gets on his knees and opens his mouth): Cool, normally I pay a fortune for that sort of thing.

Sounds suspiciously like the 'we can fly intelligent missiles down Iraqi chimneys' propaganda from the Allies in the last war which turned out to be true only because the Allies thought Iraqi chimneys covered a ten mile area around the centre of the building.


heh. heheh.

Jack Fear, responding to Bill Poster's misunderstanding of why Jack mocked his lame-brained usage of the old "Amerikkka" pun:

I'm just jealous that you live in a country without extremist groups, and with no history of sectarian violence.

Either that, or I'm just pissed that "UDF-NF-IRA-ted Kingdom" isn't as pithy as "Amerikkka." (Just as accurate, though, in expressing the views of the country as a whole...)

Quireboy- And have he and Angel gone all the way since the U-Men attack, or does rubber provide no barrier to mutant chicken baby gravy?


I think that's best left completely out of context.

dAb- It was suggested to me by a man named Merlin (really!) in the basement of a hot actress I was trying to bag.

Johnny Suedehead describes Metroid:Prime for the uninitiated:

I like to think of it as Zelda if you had a big gun, and it was Doom. But better. You know what I mean. Like Mario if you had a big gun, but like one big dungeon in Zelda. Like Metroid, really.

It's all Anthony Stewart Head's fault. No animals were hurt in the production of this quotation. Ripper just has that effect on some people.

from Qalyn, over in the MODOK lovefest thread:

"When Slippery Sam finds MODOK, after a series of mildly racist misadventures, the Mobile Organism is living on a special ashram for superbeings, learning to enumerate the ten million names of God...

That's right. Mobile Organism Dreaming Only of Karma."
thank you, Qalyn. my parents will be very surprised when I have my name legally changed...

Another gem from the Falconer school of literary criticism:

From, the Thomas Hardy thread,

Me Maybe I should give him another go?

DF No. It's wooden mince

Again, pithy and a perfect illustration of how chewy, tedious and damn unpleasant TH is.

Duncan, do you write chunky thrillers that are "as good as Andy McNab or your money back"? Cos if you do, I just saw a poster for one of your novels in the tube.

And the fuckable horse thing, since you ask, was a comment made (in character as Anthony Stewart Head's ageing playboy, doing my not very good ASH impression) while watching midlife crisis drama Manchild. His ex-wife (Frances Barber) was riding off into the distance, and he was giving her a longing look. I thought the scene would be more amusing if you assumed he was ogling the horse.

And now I don't want to hear anohter word about it.

Love is about as attractive as Trude Mostue's collection of testicles right now.

I know I should be feeling your pain but that image is too funny, Cholister.

I want to thank olulabelle for giving me the gratest new euphamism for being drunk in the following gem

There's a horrendous drink called, I believe, Aftershock, which I wouldn't advise on account of my friend totally losing the plot once due to drinking copious quantities of it

Persephone:

So I think that the most moral position is to always know where you're making your stand and to never think that you're not standing on someone's head, that's the sorrow of the world.

Quite right too.

If I ever meet you in the flesh, I'll drop you with a sucker-punch and then say "I'm a nice guy, really..." and it will all be okay, right?

Because, you know, the punch was meant ironically.

Jack Fear, like a velvet glove cast in irony...

For months I tried to clean the spot off my computer screen, only to have it move one day when I tilted my head. (slow on the uptake)
