You sure you don't mean four-in-hand?
Personally I go up to a full windsor for mowing, but leaf blowing indeed calls for only a half-windsor. That said if you have the proven bad-assery of Cornelius and the appropriate temperment and style(as he clearly does) a cravat is also considered very acceptable in a modern classical sort of manner.
The bow tie is valid because he is a man of class and has earned the right to wear it in all situations.

After reading this strip I have realized just how badly I want to talk like a machine and be all "BWRRRR! WRRRRRR! WRRRR WRRRR!" in everyday conversation. It will probably not be as magical and entertaining as I hope to be and will probably lose me a lot of friends but I still want it to happen. Looks like I'll just have to smoke three packs a day and make my dreams come true.

it is a a hammer beating up a screwdriver. Reason being, the hammer came home to his wife, a piece of wood, sitting in a bikini. At this point he notices a screw embedded in her. Being that he is hammer and their neighbor is a screwdriver, he drew the obvious conclusion the he screwed his wife, whom he normally nailed.
Its a pun.

I always assume off the bat (at least on Assetbar) that offensive comments are meant to be taken in a spirit of humor/irony, because the one making them is understood not to actually "mean" the insult. Although even when it is true, it doesn't fully excuse intolerant language, wouldn't you agree that that's true, like, 80% of the time here?
Or is my figure way off? I admit that giving people who say offensive things the benefit of the doubt (i.e., assuming they're being ironic) in real life sometimes (often?) blinds me to the true motivations of those who really are bigoted about something or other, which can be a shock when I realize that for real.
Assetbar: illuminate my reasoning.

I think they're about as cool as anyone else who carries childhood fantasies too far into adult life. Like historical reenactors, dolly grips, or astronauts.
I mean hell, I went through a phase as a kid where I pretended to be a fox, playing exuberant games running around the woods with my friends. And then a phase where I gripped just buttloads of dollies, wherever I could find them. But I've grown up, and now I only pretend to be a man who when a friend pays him a compliment, doesn't feel the urge to say "I think you're confusing me with someone who doesn't suck."
Naw but really, I hate furries.

Eh, if we had to remove all racists from our lives, a lot of people would have to never speak to older family members again. If she's a cool enough person in other ways for you to have been friends with her this long, there's no reason to change that. Doesn't mean you shouldn't call her out on it when she says stupid shit though.

Advice columnists tend to suggest calling them out on their racism next time they make an offensive statement, and saying you're so not cool with it (especially if it's targeted at individuals). Beyond that, it's up to you the extent to which you feel like being friends/interacting with that person. My only caveat is to remember that there may well be others around you (around us all) who, if you knew their dark side, would really put you off; if you can easily reconcile the idea of plenty of folks getting along, maybe even being friends for a lifetime, with the fact that they harbor secrets or bad proclivities, then maybe you can get along with someone whose racism is openly known. To me, the issue of remaining friends might depend on whether they reject or embrace acting on their racism. "Dyed-in-the-wool" does not sound very good though.

The stands we take in life don't have to be reflected by those around us to be valid. They're things we've decided. Others must have the freedom to be expressed in whatever ways they choose, just as we hope to be. You can have a greater influence on her having a breakthrough with love and acceptance than you can by validating her view that some people can be written off by writing her off.

Fuck yes there is. I've never fully understood the vilification of furries in a society that now for the most part routinely accepts sexual deviation in almost every other direction. My definition of immoral behaviour remains, as it always has, actions that intentionally harm or decieve others. (And yes, I'm a moral over-simplifier.)
Furries though, to use the vernacular, do not categorically do anything to abuse others without their consent. Now, I'm not supporting zoophiles, or any activity engaged in that causes suffering or just totally freaks out animals, but I can't be against furries in general just because they have a seemingly unnatural sexual kink. That's just so fifties.

I think it is pretend-vilification, really. I don't care what gets people's bird wet; whether it is a giant dog having sex with Jupiter, or some white woman sneering at them while grabbing her tits.
The hating furries thing is a bit of a joke on the internet, I don't think you'd ever be able to rouse any REAL emotion out of people about their particular deviance. For instance, you'll never see Oprah doing an "expose" on furries that is full of scary wordplay and 9000 penises. In the real world, furries have better 'social standing' than say, swingers and cuckolds.
For me, I just laugh at their weird deviancy, just like I laugh at Ray's cake fetish. It's harmless, but it doesn't change the fact that they would have NO idea they were into it if it weren't for the internet. Which is another interesting topic. Someday I hope to write an important paper about how the internet has created so many new sexual kinks, because sure as hell nobody was reading Krazy Kat and thinking "I need to fuck this Kat. I want this Kat to have tits, AND a dick! Where, oh, where can I find this Kat?"

Furry fetish is weird and offputting, but it's even stranger to see such hyperbolic furry hatred on internet coming from folks who masturbate to pictures of children getting dismembered. I find furries repulsive but, you know, I'd rather have a plushiefucking neighbour than one who's a psychopathic paedophile.

I meant there is no debate over using "gay" and "fag" as insults. There is no way to justify it. It is always unacceptable (unless, I suppose, done ironically among friends who know you definitely don't mean it).
Furries can do whatever the hell they want. I think it is bizarre, but I think BDSM is bizarre too, and hella people are into that.

Okay, FINE.
Personally, I don't use 'fag' since it's a bit too strong to be fully dissociated from its context. But I have no problem with my friend telling me to stop being such a fag when I keep using Marth's parry move over and over in Super Smash Bros. And if I get hit by the Falcon Kick even though I know I blocked, I have no problem with saying "this is so gay."
As far as I'm concerned, the question is one of intent, as your talking about "meaning it" implies. Are either of us intending to put down gay people when we use the words in that context? They are about the last thing on my mind at the time.
Now, here is the kicker. You will say that using the words with a negative connotation perpetuates the negative perception of gays. First of all, that's debatable - it could conceivably serve to completely dissociate the terms from their original meaning, like how 'punk' no longer has anything to do with prostitution (though given that they are simultaneously trying to 'reclaim' these terms, it probably won't happen that way). But even if you're right about that point, it seems like a very indirect responsibility to pin on people. We don't create language or invent terminology, though we do have a (very small) part in perpetuating its usage. Is it really every individual's duty to use that infinitely small amount of influence to go against the current prevailing slang in order to bring about desired social change? Could it be that someone could just not care enough to constantly police and correct their language usage?

I find I can replace pretty much any word that could be taken offensively (and I do, just because, why possibly offend someone when it's so easy not to) by using the word "lame".
Or at least, I used to, until someone gave me the sass because 'lame' also means you know...handicapped. Apparently 'spaz' is also unacceptable in some circles. I still use lame, because really, only one person ever seemed to have a problem with it. Fag and gay, a lot more people get hurt by those phrases, for whatever their reasons. I don't hold it against someone if they use it in a derogatory sense, such as in the example you put forth, but I do try and avoid it, just because I have words that work just as well that don't upset nearly as many people.

I always found it very unfortunate that "fag" is always going to be associated with gays. It's basically saying something should be burned. This is both awful, in that it implied gay people should be tortured to death, and that things that actually SHOULD be burned, have one less good word associated with it.
In this light, I'm down with the term 'furfag'. It has nothing to do with homosexuality on its face. It simply means you are a person who feels furries should be cooked to at least medium well. This is not a position that is debatable. We all feel this is reasonable.
Unfortunately, the hate boat has sailed, and 'fag' will always be associated with homosexuals, do the detriment of people who dislike furfuckers

I think I've said somewhere on here that I'm okay with using "fag" ironically? I am okay with irony. Also, the last time I checked Italians weren't oppressed. I think they have full marriage rights and that people don't say they are going to hell for being Italian. Also I have used that word I think once in my life. Also it is completely out of use in a genuine way, unlike fag. Also no Italian dude told me that he directly felt derided by it. Are you an Italian? Do you feel derided? Then I will stop. As it is a word I basically never use, this will not be a problem.

I didn't feel personally derided, no, but I do remember when you used it, and it was jarring, coming from you. I just wanted to make sure I heard correctly the explanation why you believe certain words are okay and other similar words are not. I gotta tell you that the doctrine under which this difference is justified defies what I view as logic and common sense. That same doctrine, though, holds that I have "false consciousness", so I can never really successfully question it.

It SEEMS to me (and this really is what I was asking loneal) that postmodern thinkers have adapted some of Marxism to set up a hierarchy of oppressed groups. What loneal has said in the past (in my understanding) is that since Italian people are white, using a slur word for them does not really count as a slur word. Whites are the oppressor class, so there is essentially no such thing as being racist against them. Gays are an oppressed group, so if they are slurred, that's not acceptable in polite company.
Now, I am a middle-aged straight white male with a postgraduate technical education and a house in small-town Middle America. I am The Oppressor. If I say, "you know, I kinda think a slur is a slur" that idea can be discounted because I have privilege I'm not conscious of and my entire world view is formed by being at the top of patriarchy. So the whole model is immune to my objections, and is probably not even comprehensible to me unless my consciousness gets raised.
Anyway, that's my interpretation of what the logical framework must be, and I was just trying to get that confirmed.

Okay, that's actually a pretty decent interpretation, and I see now that you were using "false consciousness" in the broader sense rather than the strict Marxist definition. I fully apologize for assuming you didn't know what you were talking about, and stand humbled.
By way of explanation, I'll say that I overreacted to your whipping out the term 'doctrine' because it seemed to me that you have a tendency to perceive anyone who makes a single argument that coincides with a liberal opinion as someone who fully subscribes to that worldview (or your somewhat exaggerated idea of it). I still think you grossly misread my earlier posts and assumed that I was making arguments that were nowhere in the text, and I thought I was seeing the same thing here.
I already said below that I think outrage over language in general is misguided and trivial, and I even made the same point about not being able to speak because of 'privilege', so I think we're coming from more or less the same place. It would be good for both of us to keep that in mind in the future.

There was actually an issue of The Tick: Big Blue Destiny (the second Tick series, written and drawn by Ben Edlund) in which this old guy manages to get ahold of Arthur's costume and use it for its full transmographic purpose. It turns him into a giant moth-monster with a craving for fabric.

From what I've read, he's insisting on completely disassociating his name from it, and said that all the royalties that would go to him can go to Dave Gibbons instead (who is much more lax about the idea of a movie). He also said that he doesn't like the choice of director, as even though he hasn't seen the film version of 300 , he's heard that it was "racist, sexist, and homophobic" (which I'd claim that it was and it wasn't, sort of at the same time).
He's also said that he wants his name removed from all works that he doesn't own - including Watchmen , V for Vendetta , and my beloved Swamp Thing .
Yes, Alan Moore is a grumpy old idealist, with a crazy fuckin' beard, who writes some truly wonderful stuff - and some stuff that's just a bit too weird and I can't be bothered with. But at the same time, at least he truly stands by his arty-ness, and money obviously means bugger all to him. Gotta respect that.

Because it was deliberately a tall tale. It was not trying to take a story and look at the historical fact behind it (like Troy ), but was instead looking at it as a story that one Spartan passes on to another.
Thus, the bad guys (in this case, the Persians) will take on everything that the culture considers abhorrent - they will be monstrous, effeminate, etc. because that's what the culture telling the story will perceive them as so as to demonise them even more. So yes, it was racist, sexist, and homophobic - but just because it's part of the story of the story, and the storyteller wouldn't exactly be even-handed.
But the question becomes - is that just as bad?

This has nothing to do with the lifestyle brand; it seems like Ray just wants to prove that she's sleeping around, which isn't his business, anyway.

The ironic thing is that the two bits you quoted are highly controversial*. The "let he with no sin cast the first stone" bit is oft left out of many transcripts and arguably not from the original
And the pro who washed his feet with her hair (and perfume!) - although many associate her with Mary Magdalene, it doesn't actually state her name, and Mary Magdalene isn't stated as being a former hooker elsewhere in the Bible.
Fun stuff!

Oh, and it was. I did not mean to demean it, I just felt like yelling out "Look at me! I'm smart and stuff!" I'm a shallow man.
And yes, he was all about showing whores salvation and stuff, make no mistake. Frequent references to him being a nice guy and hanging out with "tax collectors and whores", when that shit was totally not done. If you wish to take that as him being a fan of ladies of the night in a more nefarious manner, then have fun.

Cool with that. Seems the only people he really got ticked off with were "actors" (what hypocrit means; playing a role, rather than being honest about who you are and what you're up to) and "lawyers" (willing to burden others in ways they themselves would not tolerate). And even then, he treated them like humans! ("Forgive them, Father. They know not what they do.")
Also, it appears that in the original he didn't say "Let him who is without sin..." etc. But, he did start writing the names of her clients in the dirt, and they left rapidly as they were named. Let's just say that her accusers had direct, personal knowledge of her being a whore.

Apologies if my insecurities are showing here, but does anybody care to explain the apparent hilarity behind someone calling me fat without any provoking whatsoever?
I've basically never found gladi8orrex to be funny and don't personally see the appeal of someone who frequently posts either completely pointless or offensive comments in shitty internet shorthand, and reserve the right to be pissed off when he/she/it starts attacking me (in what is now an ongoing situation).
Finally, I'm sure that everyone involved is going to just interpret this as loyalty and nothing more, but I don't think loneal was overreacting by refusing to accept being treated in a sexist and misogynistic way and not being totally okay with homophobic slurs. Call it overly liberal, I call it accepting and tolerant.

I agree with you. That was really mean.
And I feel guilty too about Loneal. I feel like I contributed in some way to her leaving. I'm not sure when, or how, but I feel like I probably made a slight misogynistic joke at somepoint.
Sorry.

You should be pre-emptively sorry for that double post, Sje.
As for Gladi8orrex, I wasn't defending the comedic value of his post. I'm just confused by how many people are gettin' all huffy about slurs or abusive behaviour made in jest. Obviously I respect your right to feel insulted (As in every sense you have been) but as intelligent and self-confident individuals I don't see the logic behind retaliating. Is what he said relevant? Are you ashamed by his accusation? If not (And I hope not) then I have to guess that you're only responding on principal, or because of a general dislike for his brand of humour. (Understandable.)

it's the pile-on mentality. Even good-natured ribbing becomes cruel in large doses. It is pretty much the source of all the awkward racist bits in The Office.
I'm not going to lie, I was pretty disappointed with that whole thread. Disappointed like a mean teacher. Just because you can say something doesn't mean you should.

Hecci, I didn't think it was funny even the first time. I wanted to say something, but felt like I already had too many posts pontificating about the harmfulness of trolls, and given that everyone else seemed to like him, I thought it better to just keep quiet. Now I realize that it was just cowardly.
I still stand with the (extremely long) point I made above. Not caring about seeing underlying sexism or homophobia everywhere is not the same thing as being sexist or homophobic. And not agreeing with an accusation of sexism or homophobia doesn't make you sexist or homophobic, regardless of who that accusation comes from.
I don't think Tekende's lashing out was intended as sexist (even if it came off that way), it was just kind of thoughtless and crude. And I don't see the 'ganging up' you guys are talking about. Scroll up and you'll see that most people are defending her.

There is a clever multi-lingual pun in all this: Spanish Gato (cat) is a perfect homophone (not a gay telephone, all ya' hick homophobes) with French Gateau (cake).
At a Spanish language birthday party I asked for a piece of Birthday Gateau. The kid was later found hiding in the bathroom, crying and clutching his pet cat!
So, Ray's really into his gato's gateau.

Actually, "gato's gateau" (cat's cake) was problematic for me on a completely unrelated level: "Gato" is masuline, and there ain't no doubt but that Ray is much more interested in a "gata".
Other multi-lingual puns exist, like French "Chat" (Cat) sounding just like "Shah" (as in "Shah of Iran"). Too bad Ray choose to be a Prince instead of a Shah or Sheik.

Yup. I fear she's going to scream Ray's name during the lovemakin', and trick him into thinking that he tricked her but that she still regards him as Chubby Knight #1, and the whole dysfunctional cycle begins all over again. Which for Ray is probably A-OK.

LOTR and the Dragonlance series are epic fantasy. If you can't get into them, try the West of Eden series, by Harry Harrison.

If you want funny, read Robert Asprin's "Myth" series, or Harry Harrison's Bill The Galactic Hero series.
...or, if you like epic things with a great ending, find a nice girl, and a tube of 'ManDelay"...

Terry Brooks Shannara was decent (if derivative), but you can't beat Tolkien! Le Guin is also very good. I loved the Aspirin Myth books, and you don't need to like fantasy much to get a laugh from them.
Not into fanatsy? Try Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose and Foulcault's Pendulum , Battlefield Earth , Arturo Perez-Reverte The Club Dumas , The Rule of Four , S. King can be fun, anything Shakespeare, Plato or Satre, Frank Herbert's Dune books (well, the first few anyway) and (if you want to irritate any world history professors) I really enjoyed Rohl's non-fiction The Test of Time . Frankly, I prefer non-fiction, but will only offer this one for fun reading.
If you enjoy fiction passing for non-fiction, than you can read Zecharia Sitchin or Graham Hancock.
If your interests are religious or spiritual, then say so and I'll give you the list of the best the world has to offer!
If you speak Spanish, I loved Don Quixote de la Mancha and if you speak French, anything by Dumas or Hugo will more than satisfy. (But don't even try Hugo unless you speak French very well.)
If you are into classics and standards of great literature, then say so and I'll give you a list of my favorites.

I hate religion and spiritualism.
I do love the classics though.

Dragonlance and Forgotten Realms were good in 7th grade but I'd probably hate it now. I still have a soft spot for Terry Brooks' Shannara and David Eddings' Belgariad , but those are also a bit derivative and pulpy. In terms of traditional epic fantasy that is actually good literature, it's pretty much just Tolkien, George R.R. Martin (whom I can't recommend enough) as far as I know. You could also try the original Conan stories by Ron E. Howard. I can't speak as to Michael Moorcock, Robert Jordan, and Ursula Le Guin, but I hear they're good too

I kinda dare you all to start discussing just how much the medium of a text-based forum has warped each of your opinions, and then cross-reference that to your personal immediate reaction to the post.
Actually, no, don't do that. Fuck, that'll take forever.

Fived for Zappa
What's the Zappa reference? My Zappa knowledge is pretty thin.
Sheik Yerbouti was a Zappa album
One of the best. Broken Hearts are indeed for Assholes.
Ram it, ram it, ram it, ram it up your poop chute (cornhole!)
Ram it, ram it, ram it, ram it up your poop chute (fist fuck.)
(Wristwatch Crisco.)
Zappa also gets the award for best names for songs from my youth:
- Titties and Beer
- Broken Hearts are for Assholes
- Why Does It Hurt When I Pee
- What's The Ugliest Part Of Your Body
- St. Alphonzo's Pancake Breakfast
- Father O'Blivion
- My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama
- Brown Shoes Don't Make It
Only Captain Beefheart beats him, and there are too many to list (the Zappa/Beef compositions rock too).
G-Spot Tornado is the one makes me smile the most.
Oh man, Dweezle Zappa made it to Omaha this summer, Zappa does Zappa is keepin' it alive, and oh yeah, gimme a beer cause' it's titty squeezing time.
oh wow someone else in omaha reads achewood... I missed that show because I am lame and poor.
Hee hee, I drove up from Lincoln actually, but yeah...was a bit pricey, but in the Joslyn, crazy acoustics.
I am from Lincoln, who are you? There is probably a 1:1 chance that we have met before.
Haha, most likely, I'm an Alex who went to LHS, just gradiated from Doane, in Crete.
WHOA. I'm from Lincoln. LSW.
Since you seem to have an angle on the music, I bet I could sneakily identify myself via that: I am the brother-in-law of the main performer/musician in Man's Last Great Invention.
I imagine him saying "I AM the main performer/musician of Man's Last Great Invention!"
It would be a shocking twist!
I wonder if there could be a better twist . . . .

Nice avaticon! A cute combination of cat and rack. And because you change it so often, I decided to show off my meager internets talents and save it for posteriors.
Just for you, Pogo, old chum:
Thanks.
Fleshy posteriors?
sad to say, but I think you are a year or two removed from my social network. Do you know anyone from Eagle/Seagull? That's the closest I can come to knowing an actual band. Most of my music contacts were acquaintances.
Despite my blog devoted to music, I am really not a big fan of live shows. I have nothing against them, and I understand their appeal, but they don't appeal to me.
You sound exactly like me. Here's the inside scoop: Everyone thinks we're totally joyless.
Yeah, even my close friends, who know I have this preference, always act surprised when I bring it up. It is like being the person who doesn't like chocolate or ice cream. I get the same thing when I say I don't like donuts.
I just don't like donuts, ok?
Liking The Fall really doesn't help with people thinking I'm joyless either. I gotta find some kind of fun band to like before I grow a beard and corduroy trousers.
Yeah, I just bought donuts for the rest of my department as it's my turn, I will consume none of them (more of a Pain-au-chocolat guy..) I do know of Eagle/Seagull and a few bands of it's tenure (Seasick Bob, Bright Calm Blue, Her Flyaway Manner...lots of those dudes are part of my sister's scene, been more on the underground hiphops side myself)
How long does it take to grow cords?
They normally turn up after the third John Cale album
Oh hee hee hee, I just realized Carrie from Eagle/Seagull and her husband, is it Austin? were my next door neighbors about a month ago, hah! 19&C
-What's The Ugliest Part Of Your Body
I think it's your mind
also anyone ever notice "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" has the same basic chord structure as "What's The Ugliest Part of Your Body"
Well, it is a pretty standard doo-wop sort of progression. Right? I think?
There are probably a bazillion songs that go I-iv-IV-V.
Included in that is every single song from "Louie Louie" to "Wild Thing."
I think In The Aeroplane Over The Sea is I-vi-IV-V ("doo-wop progression"); Louie Louie, Wild Thing, Twist And Shout, etc., etc., are I-IV-V-IV ("lazy songwriter progression").
Let it be (unintentional . . .or is it?!) known that The Beatles did not write Twist and Shout. Thank you.

Lazy Songwriter or... Rich Songwriter?
Saw him on his first tour when it was just the Mothers of Invention. Liked him ever since. That first album, Freakout is a good place to start. "Who Are the Brain Police?"
Sheesh. That was like 1966, wasn't it?
No offense of course.
Yup, freshman year at Michigan State.
Pogo is ooold
No offense.
I can't wait, personally. Not that I have any desire to rush in life, I've just always felt old at heart, plus then you can shoplift and simply say "What?! Arrest me, I'm oooold! ".
The Uncle Leo defense.
He looks like he's relating an anecdote about grabbing some woman's box on a miniature golf course.
No it was about Jerry's cousin Jeffrey who's in the Park's Department. Incidentally I work there too. But my stories aren't anything like Uncle Leo's.

Zappa was a great phase to go through to help widen my musical horizons, but I could quite happy live the rest of my life without listening to him ever again.
Though sometimes, in the shower, I catch myself singing "Bobby Brown Goes Down".
I don't think I've ever heard one of his songs.
Unless there is a famous one that I don't realize is his.
You can't say you don't know who Frank Zappa is here, do you even realize where you? Do you?
Who's Frank Zappa?
I've heard of him!
I didn't say I didn't know who he was.
The Mothers of Invention.
I just am unfamiliar with his music.
I also haven't heard any of his music, although he is a well known person. I've always assumed it is noodly and unlistenable.
yeah you'd assume that because so many "guitar people" like him, and usually their Satriani, Santana meat-train is noodly and caustic, but Zappa is actually pretty good.
Hey, you made me illegally download the first Zappa album that came up when I googled 'frank zappa best album'.
I hope it was Apostrophe, for your sake. That is my favorite.
Hmm. Turns out Frank Zappa is definitely not my bag. Still - it's only bandwidth.
I like "One Size Fits All". Who cares which FZ album* I recommend for noobs? Nobody, that's who! But I made you (all) waste time scanning the pixels. I win.
*yes, I'm old and still say "album", though such a thing isn't even *manufactured* any longer, save tiny runs for DJs and vinyl fetishists (lotta overlap on that Venn diagram).
'One Size Fits All' is my favourite also.

I was just messing with you, sje.
To be honest, even now that I've practically been SUBMERGED into Frank Zappa, I really don't care. I have an entire Bob Dylan catalog to listen through and just not enough time to get involved with a whole 'nother prolific musician.
Plus I'm not interested.
Dylan and Zappa should have done an album together.
I should listen to Dylan.
That's all.
absolutely you should, if you haven't started.
a good starting point, I find, is The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. If you aren't too into folk, I would recommend Blood On The Tracks. You cannot go wrong with Blonde on Blonde, either. If I was to recommend a path that starts with the folk, though. It gives you more context on the rock/folk. Those three are my favorite albums, but his catalog is solid from the beginning until you hit the late 70s.
Also, it is hard to go wrong with best of collections.
A wrongfully maligned little gem is his Live at Budokan album, which is a lot of fun if you are already familiar with his stuff. He turns his catalog into vegas show tunes and hams it up for the Japanese audience. I particularly like the version of "Simple Twist of Fate" and "One More Cup of Coffee" from that album.
This is even better when you know it is also a slam on Peter Frampton.
My baby's got Jones Crusher love.

The Fab Four.
And what versus what?
I am a very big fan of both Spaced and Black Books. So NUH.
You can't have both. Choose wisely.
I don't know if there's time left in my rapidly dwindling life, but I've never heard of either Spaced or these Black Books. Worth looking into?
Spaced is, definitely. I haven't seen enough Black Books to comment on it.
Black Books was probably the best Crack-pot comedy I'd seen since Father Ted. Spaced was kind of in a class of its own really and I don't feel it necessary to compare the two.
Spaced is in a class of its own because it is objectively a better show .
And Keir is objectively a douchebag .
I like both. I know a lot of people who like both. You're completely fucking retarded. And your avatar isn't funny.
So your argument is: "I like both therefore you're completely fucking retarded."
Here's my argument:
I'll concede that some people might like Black Books as well as Spaced. Black Books has jokes, and some of them are funny. However it's completely based around Dylan Moran's "grumpy Irishman" schtick, which is enjoyable enough, but gets old quick. It's a textbook sitcom, the scripts are lazy, the supporting characters are weak and the jokes are clearly designed just to make the studio audience laugh.
Spaced was just streets ahead in terms of writing, character development and especially direction. The main characters were aimless, white, middle class and obsessed with pop culture - it appealed to a huge section of western society, the 20 something "kids" of generation X that hadn't had a war to force them to grow up. The endless nerdy movie homages c/o Edgar Wright, the simmering sexual tension between Daisy and Tim and the brilliant supporting cast point to a simple fact: Spaced was made by people who cared enough about what they were doing to make sure they made best show they possibly could.
Black Books might elicit a chuckle or two on occasion, but it is simply NOT AS GOOD.
I like your choice of insults though; 'douchebag' and 'retarded' are brilliantly original - don't be surprised it everyone on the internet is using those little gems in a few weeks.
And lastly, my avatar IS funny.
Bill Bailey was an important part of Black Books, in addition to Dylan Moran.
Spaced is definitely a much bigger deal, but I laughed more at Black Books. As lastlarf said, apples and oranges.
i remember when i used to laugh out loud while reading the discussion board. sigh.
I only remember when you used to douche out loud while writing on the discussion board. This is a recent memory.
it hurts because i checked your profile. you've seen every strip too. you should understand.
Perhaps you suffer from depression. You should seek psychiatric treatment.
Hey, thanks.
Is your avatar Ron Jeremy as a children's show host?
Man, it sucks to be lamed for having a well thought out opinion.
The Who are always the correct answer. Superior to both Beatles and Stones.
I'm tempted to say that Father Ted is the proper second answer, but that would just be me trying to replicate the honesty of the correct answer to the first question. In reality Spaced and Black Books are equally fabulous. Disliking either is tantamount to disliking life.
The Who. Reason. Reason. Reason. The Who.
The Who?! Jeez, why not just say "The Monkees" or "Status Quo"?
The Kinks kick all these suckas out of bed.
The Kinks, while clever, were terrible musicians, worse than UZ even. The Who have it all, geniuses at each position: Keith Moon, the world's fastest drummer; Entwhistle, the best bass player (chords, man, not just notes); Townsend, master songwriter and guitar maniac; and that singer guy who fried his throat. The best rock band ever.
Village Green Preservation Society, that is all I will say to counter your argument. Also, "Waterloo Sunset". Fucking Kinks rock. Fucking Who rocks. Fucking Beatles, Fucking Stones rock. THEY ALL ROCK.
You guys, listen to music and don't make it into an argument about who would win in a fight between Batman and Superman. It is all about context, because depending on who is writing the story, either Batman or Superman would win.
(Batman would win though, because he has always seen it coming. He probably keeps kryptonite in his ass all the time just in case. You have to be a shitty, shitty writer to let Superman win that fight.)
You take that back, Pogo, you take that back! Dave Davies is one of the most underrated guitar players in the history of rock: talented and gloriously sloppy, Jimmy Page wanted to be Dave Davies so bad.
Gimme sloppy rock over Clapton any fucking day of the year AND EVEN WHEN IT'S A LEAP YEAR.
Sloppy seconds isn't my idea of fun. I like my rock a little tighter, sorry.
Wanting your rock music to be "a little tighter" is like wanting your booze to be non-alcholic.
No. Beatles are better. Because of Across the Universe. Case closed.
You mean that terrible film trying to cash in on baby boomer nostalgia as they consistently place themselves as the most important generation ever? The heavily fictionalized one about a sixties that never really happened? The use of Beatles songs in that was just crass and heavy-handed.
As far as I'm concerned the only good or even tolerable thing Julie Taymor was Titus and that was... well, great. For once her costuming and set choices complemented the work. Hopefully her upcoming version of the Tempest will be good. The Lion King, however, should never, ever have been made and was quite terrible when it was done. Cats bad.
Yeah. Sad attempt at art, that one. Most of the covers of Beatles music were sad imitations, but I have to say I really liked Jo-Jo and Sadie with their Hendrix/Joplin sound alike act. And if anyone ever films Izzard attempting miserably to sing again, I will personally vendetta their ass. We now know better!
Actually, I'd say it was pretty inventively staged during the first act, before they go to New York and the whole thing becomes exactly what you'd expect. "With a Little Help From My Friends" and "I've Just Seen a Face" came as close as possible to doing justice to the originals. Which isn't very close, but still.
No! Guys, not that movie! I haven't even seen the movie, but I already know I hate it.
The song, guys. The song. Now give me chubbies to compensate for the lames, please.
That song is divine .
I am still waiting for my compensatory chubs.
Spaced is better than Black Books, but Bill Bailey's stand-up is funnier than anyone on either show.
I think the true position to take is The Beach Boys
America for the win
