I just love saying the word "lugubrious". Luh-GOOOOOOO-bri-us. It just sounds like what it is. What's the word for that? Onomatipaeic or something?

Maybe that's where your name is derived from, Gooblar!

Ooh, I feel quite funny now.

I think I've realised - it's not actually the carrot cake that makes me go all ADHD, it's the *icing*. I felt fine until I ate the icing and now I feel like I'm drunk.

Does that mean you're going to post some benjamin pics and lust over him?

― pfunkboy (Kerr), Friday, 24 November 2006 14:06 (seventeen years ago) link

Nah, I just feel like getting in a play slap-fite with some noizeboarders. ;-P

Oh, alright, just the one...

Then I'm going to make faces at my colleagues who are still stuck in their debtors meeting. I just heard that 91% of our debtors are new! Hurrah!

I got The Wire today. Smiths got it in and my dad picked it up for me when he was down the town.
The Melvins are on the cover. Written by Phil Freeman.

Grrrr, I'm irritated by people who don't understand what a "remix" is.

No, you cannot just take one of my songs, rewrite it and then have my band perform it your way. In fact, I'm mildly insulted by that proposition.

― pfunkboy (Kerr), Friday, 24 November 2006 14:22 (seventeen years ago) link

Ugh. Yes.

Just found another place where he's been slagging me off. Just fuck off and die, OK, f*ckwit? And take your comment box and stick it up your woo-woo.

(Actually, I just realised that's kinda sick. He looks like a younger version of *my* brother there.)

― masonic boom (kate), Friday, 24 November 2006 14:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Of course, this is the only photo of my brother I can find right now:

(n.b. he and my sister in law are actually at a Halloween party, he does not actually have Boris Johnson style emperor aspirations. I don't think. Well, if he does, he doesn't actually dress like that all the time.)

I thought that was Martin Clunes in that dr who story!

that brainl0ve guy has been slagging you off?

― pfunkboy (Kerr), Friday, 24 November 2006 14:41 (seventeen years ago) link

dude looks like he plays way too much Rome:TW

― teh_kit, Friday, 24 November 2006 14:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Dude should've cut his wrist tag off when he escaped

― nu_onimo (nu_onimo), Friday, 24 November 2006 14:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Dude does not play videogames. His wife has a degree in Latin, tho.

And do not slag off my brother. >:-(

He does look like Martin Clunes tho.

Referring to something upthread, Mogadon is a downer, so I would assume the sub who changed "mog-speed" to "mogadon-speed" assuming it meant "really slowly". I must admit if I'd read "mog-speed" I'd have assumed it meant mogadon, not mogwai.

Back in the '90's we used to rofl at the prospect of someone inventing a genre called "moggie-house", slowed down, drowsy/sicky sounding beats. I guess moggie house sort of came to be when some FIEND invented trip hop.

I thought Moggies were cats. I cannot imagine what music by cats would sound like.

Pointy nosed dude in that photo looks exactly like my brother looked at about 14. But I cannot for the life of me find an old photo, even though I know I've scanned many.

I'm sure this says something terribly sick and horrible about me.

― masonic boom (kate), Friday, 24 November 2006 14:58 (seventeen years ago) link

My frater doesn't actually look anything like Martin Clunes, but now, having seen this picture, I sort of see your point:

(Frater's ears don't stick out that much, though.)

Haha! Tryptophan hangover and myriad of things going wrong this morning did not prevent me from having four successful, positive tutorials today. I pwn the world!

― LuGOOOOblar, Friday, 24 November 2006 15:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Teh Kit, why do you always request being locked out of the watercooler? Has someone offended you?

― pfunkboy (Kerr), Friday, 24 November 2006 15:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Ramalama.

Lenny was OK. As he's a local person thesedays, it was weird him ironically referring to Woodley's black ghetto, almost with accuracy.

― M Grout (Mark Grout), Friday, 24 November 2006 15:14 (seventeen years ago) link

i'm not discussing that here.

― teh_kit, Friday, 24 November 2006 15:14 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm lost.

― pfunkboy (Kerr), Friday, 24 November 2006 15:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Who's Lenny?

― masonic boom (kate), Friday, 24 November 2006 15:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Singer out of Notorhead.

Wow. Tryptophan:

Who is Lenny Henry?

Oh, never mind. I'll go google.

Ah, he is a professional Funny Person. No wonder I had not heard of him.

I think Tryptophan gets mentioned in Robert Clavert's "Captain Lockheed and the starfighters" as part of the cocktail of drukqs a starfighter pilot has to take before flying "the widow maker".

― Norman Phay (Pashmina), Friday, 24 November 2006 15:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Robert Calvert, even.

― Norman Phay (Pashmina), Friday, 24 November 2006 15:26 (seventeen years ago) link

It is an amino acid, it maketh people sleepy. It is also a principle ingredient of Serotonin which my brane has much trouble keeping in it. So maybe I should take some Tryptophan.

Argh!

I heard that we were in the new issue of MusicMart. But I went to the shop and they only had the old issue. Bah!

― masonic boom (kate), Friday, 24 November 2006 15:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Did you listen to the death metal CD w/terrorizer yet, Kerr?
