  1. saw Zodiac last night recomended, just don't expect a twist.
  2. I clearly need to sample Phillip K Dick, possibly Issac Azimov too.
  3. what the sweet fuck is that?
  4. got nothin on me. I eat steel out of a flat cap
  5. John Le Carre's The Spy Who Came In From The Cold often namechecked as the novel responsible for revolutionising the spy genre, and with good reason: It's awesome. The Plot follows Alec Lemas, the head of the British operation in communist Berlin. When the last of his spies is assassinated by the German head of Counter Espionage, Lemas becomes involved in a last ditch operation to stage his defection and incriminate his nemesis before he can retire. It's a damn fine read- Lemas is a truly compelling anti hero of a protagonist and Le Carre writes with the great skill of a real story teller. Short book, too, with little fluff or a wasted page.
  6. she's really not. Her lyrics are guffage, and her voice annoys the sweet fuck out of me. You say I must eat lots uv lemonnns, because I'm so bittaaaaaahhhh! fuck off and learn to talk, wench.
  7. Shabba, man. Shabba.
  8. Gentlemen, these summer songs are all well and good but you're forgetting a really classic: Six Pence Non The Richer's Kiss Me! what a track. It was the mid 90's: Dawson's Creek was on saturday tv (after spiderman no less) and this little charmer of a track fit so well. Brilliant!
  9. FYI (lol) the best way ot get your mits on graphic novels seems to be the Amazon small sellers sub section. Most major releases are coverec by small scale importers who can offer great prices. mind your way with postage tho. it can ramp up costs from american sellers.
  10. holler, cracker.
  11. rock on, stud.
  12. Interpol are the sex. tru fax. There's No 'I' In Threesome is such a good title
  13. the wii is a bit shit, so I'm not getting one! winner!
  14. sadly, my own brand of affection-sarcasm and mockery- does not go down well as flirting. Fuck. blame my brothers. we grew up dealing with emotions by having fights with sofa cushions instead of talking, then we moved on to relentless violence with Goldeneye.
  15. gentlemen, something about this game has come to my attention that ckearly needs further investigation: Chris sounds exactly like Charlie Sheen. Seriously, watch it again...
  16. they're not fun, they're annoying and shit and their sound is weaker than a nun's libido. A couple of their songs could be alright if they had balls, but neither the mix or their vocalist appears to have discovered a pair. as for the arctic monkeys, I'm not a big fan but Alex Turner does have a knack for that little twist to his lyrics that actually makes them good.
  17. British indie is such a pile of derivative shit. there's a difference between capturing the essence of normal life and infusing it in to a good lyric (stand up Jarvis Cocker and Alex Turner) and simply writing shit songs about real life with the rhyme scheme you learned in primary school (stand up The Kaiser Chiefs, Razorlight, Hard Fi, Every Fucking Band Who Would Willingly Take It Anally From Doherty). Sadly, the british public, in their wisdom, have decided to endorse the latter. I don't know why. Is there anyone left? Are you out there? lets go form a refuge and escape from these fucking dolts and teach our offspring poetry and language, and nothing about kebab shops. ps. Klaxons suck dick and need to be punched in the eye, but for different reasons.
  18. spiderman 2, I believe. since then we've had superman and batman though, so comic movies aren't in bad shape all the time. this looks kinda cool though. could be pretty hot.
  19. I know, I know. Thing is, every time I think I'm over it, I just put Mirrored on again and it melts my face, then i run here squealing about how good it is while I try and stop listening to it all day every day again. it could be worse though. just imagine if someone spent post after post trying to justify the artistic credability of Avril Lavigne or something! that'd be ridiculous! lol shit stir. Hope they see this post!
  20. good effort, but even something kind of ooohh is nothing compared to the content of Mirrored.
