Does it help or hinder the argument if I say I think she's quite pretty?

Gol's absolutely right, of course, I certainly do get wound up on occasion. It's just reassuring when threads like this come along and demonstrate that there are always people who are capable of being even more po-faced than me. tbh.

I wouldn't mind, but he collared me on MSN late last night and assured me he wasn't drunk or anything. I'm still faintly bemused by the concept of having a thread in my honour though. Anyway, I don't know about asking me out per se, but he's definitely angling for a free drink at the next pissup I reckon. Frothy pink cocktails all round!

Seems to be true... http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com/06/en/t/sc/d...5&month=9&day=7

Ah crap, I knew I shouldn't have started this.

Thought this was going to be a thread where you cream yourself over the latest Britney release. I'm disappointed.

If you can admit to eating chick pea curries, coming out to your parents should be a doddle, Sammy. 29491[/snapback] Want to bet? I got some beads and string and made a frigging bead necklace at the breakfast table once and mine still didn't twig.

You just liked the lily-enhanced pink ambience of the place, didn't you?

It's good mind.

Only if the venue has a capacity of 101.

He could always wear a wig I guess 29356[/snapback] And a pink skirt and some antlers.

'Cause it wouldn't have been easier to actually *say* that.

Can't imagine the Scandis being too thrilled about it...

That's what you get when the soundtrack is a proper song that does its job in 2½ minutes instead of some sprawlingly dull Oasis "epic"...

Brilliant.

Can't remember if this has been posted before, but it's still worth a second look if so. http://www.winterson.com.nyud.net:8090/200...ke-of-west.html

The Chinese/Thai place across the road from me is pretty good. Most of the stuff on their menu is coated in the usual gloopy, one-size-fits-all dark sauce that seems to pass for generic "Chinese" over here, but if you tell them you're not actually German, they'll whip up something different for you that might actually challenge your taste buds a bit. Top lads.

If you really want a cheap and central alternative and you're not bothered about it being a particularly romantic break, there's always http://www.generatorhostels.com/london Haven't tried the London one but the Berlin one's really not bad at all, for what it is. Like I say, though, 4-bed rooms or dormitories probably aren't exactly what you're after. Hubba hubba, etc.

and the locals talk all funny too!!!!1! WTF

2's "Fight The Power" (Public Enemy, indeed) and 9's "Unconditional" (The Bravery). I think. Oh, and 10's just called "Wild Wood" tbh.

Mozzarella is vastly underrated. Toasted on rye bread with tomato slices and fresh basil - ohhh yes.

Now we just need someone to adapt "Jewels remain still cleaming"

Yeah, that one definitely makes sense as a starting point, too. If you're looking for individual songs at the more accessible end of what they do, Sima, have a go at "Starálfur", "Flugufrelsarinn" and "Ný batterí" from early in the album.

Porn Star? 28637[/snapback] Even more glamorous than that.
