There you go again, waving your dictionary privilege around like the throbbing blue-veined baton it is

 

[DotCommunist]

in the great twitter war, the first casualty is the truth

followed closely by her cousins: Dignity, Self Awareness and Tact

Truth, Dignity, Self-Awareness and Tact.

For any aspiring member of the commentariat these qualities are as welcome as the Four Horsemen themselves.

I suspect he responded personally because when I wrote to him, they weren’t yet as massively famous as they would later become.

So so hip.

 

[Wilf]

I'm thinking we need a commentariat bingo card.

In the Great Twitter War, truth is kneeled down and blindfolded behind the milking sheds having a pistol pressed into the back of its skull

don't you mean #skull

there is already a good top trumps....

 

[DotCommunist]

He-Mans tweets all end with that

 

[Wilf]

So so hip.

I'm working on a piece provisionally entitled 'Shangalang-a-liminality: a performative reading of The Bay City Rollers'.

 

[Wilf]

... oh, and when I say entitled, I'm not making any assumptions...

 

[DotCommunist]

So so hip.

I was into colplay when parachutes was an underground indie runaway success story. I had the first Snow Patrol album before it was (a year later) re-packaged with a new hit single and sold for millions.

I tried to beg a fag off of the bassist from Get Cape, Wear Cape, Fly and he said no so I called him a tight bastard


Can I getta 'hell yeah!'?

IIRC there was a PHD thesis on the sound made by the snare drum, just the snare drum, on Led Zeppelin's 'When The Levee Breaks.'

Shurely, 'Techno-Narcissism, Complex Hair and the Threat of the 'Other''.

 

[DotCommunist]

I really don't know where to put this cos we don't have a psueds corner threa, but spotted in a 2012 edition of Private Eye (my brothers toilet literature is dire)

'A soup redolent of burnt umber. A great fist of a soup. Dark and bowellish'

The woman who started raceplaygate writes in the Graunid? http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/feb/25/sex-workers-right-to-refuse

 

[belboid]

That's her. Not a terrible piece, tho the stress placed upon them being 'skilled professionals' as opposed to 'workers with the same rights as anyone else' is a bit crap.

e2a: & I notice her profile includes the line 'The author is writing under a pseudonym' - underneath a photo of herself!)

Any old twat can write for comment is free and stress on the 'free'.

and you mention this because you believe the scope of this apocryphal thesis is too narrow?

Rusbridger's digital strategy writ large!

As love detective once said:

'Look at me, buy my shit.'

She'll pose in front of her mate's whopping portrait of her so this is nothing.

Meanwhile, some mug paid Crabapple for this awfulness.

 

[Idris2002]

That doesn't even look like George.
