He'll end up defusing a bomb in television centre tbh.

I once wet to Sunderland for a night out. I thought Idols was just as bad as the one in Newcastle. Then we went round the corner and into the most horrific bar I've ever sampled. There was a pungent odour throughout and every lass in there was mutton dressed as mutton. Can't remember the name of the place but I had been assured earlier in the day that it was the best place to go. Just like the Bigg Market tbh, but there doesn't seem to be an alternative down there.

Work isn't enjoyable! That's why they PAY you to do it.

For those that haven't tried Curb Your Enthusiasm, if you find this funny, you'll like it..... Read other entries in Larry Davids Blog here

Maybe there should be a mobile phone ban in all public places. If I have to keep my smoke to myself maybe everyone else should keep their death rays to themself.

I just watched The Seder episode of Curb. I thought I was going to have a hernia when he got the bongos out. Sublime.

My favourite Seinfeld has to be 'The Hot Tub' though.

It's hilarious no matter when you watch it tbh. It's probably more risque NOW, given the unbelievably archaic limits placed on prime time US shows these days.

Charalambides - A Vintage Burden

A lad I know and his mate went to Thailand on holiday. While there they agreed they'd both get tattoos on their heads so the lad I know went first and got a flower on his forehead. His mate shat hisself lauging, he'd meant the back of his shaved head all along. Tit.

Are they like the Pipettes or do I just imagine them to be so?

Howe Gelb - 'Sno Angel Like You

I've held off downloading series 4 and 5 of Curb Your Enthusiasm, as I want to get the DVD's when they're reasonably priced. Couldn't hold out any longer though. It's brilliant like. Went through series 4 and half of 5 in a couple of days.

Every year, English teachers from across the country submit their collections of actual analogies and metaphors found in high school essays. These excerpts are published each year to the amusement of teachers across the country. Here are last year's winners..... 1. Her face was a perfect oval, like a circle that had its two sides gently compressed by a Thigh Master. 2. His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a dryer without Cling Free. 3. He spoke with the wisdom that can only come from experience, like a guy who went blind because he looked at a solar eclipse without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it and now goes around the country speaking at high schools about the dangers of looking at a solar eclipse, without one of those boxes with a pinhole in it. 4. She grew on him like she was a colony of E. coli, and he was room-temperature Canadian beef. 5. She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up. 6. Her vocabulary was as bad as, like, whatever. 7. He was as tall as a six-foot, three-inch tree. 8. The revelation that his marriage of 30 years had disintegrated because of his wife's infidelity came as a rude shock, like a surcharge at a formerly surcharge-free ATM machine. 9. The little boat gently drifted across the pond exactly the way a bowling ball wouldn't. 10. McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty bag filled with vegetable soup. 11. From the attic came an unearthly howl. The whole scene had an eerie, surreal quality, like when you're on vacation in another city and Jeopardy comes on at 7:00 p.m. instead of 7:30. 12. Her hair glistened in the rain like a nose hair after a sneeze. 13. The hailstones leaped from the pavement, just like maggots when you fry them in hot grease. 14. Long separated by cruel fate, the star-crossed lovers raced across the grassy field toward each other like two freight trains, one having left Cleveland at 6:36 p.m. traveling at 55 mph, the other from Topeka at 4:19p.m. at a speed of 35 mph. 15. They lived in a typical suburban neighborhood with picket fences that resembled Nancy Kerrigan's teeth. 16. John and Mary had never met. They were like two hummingbirds who had also never met. 17. He fell for her like his heart was a mob informant and she was the East River. 18. Even in his last years, Granddad had a mind like a steel trap, only one that had been left out so long, it had rusted shut. 19. Shots rang out, as shots are wont to do. 20. The plan was simple, like my brother-in-law Phil. But unlike Phil, this plan just might work. 21. The young fighter had a hungry look, the kind you get from not eating for a while. 22. He was as lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck, either, but a real duck that was actually lame, maybe from stepping on a land mine or something. 23. The ballerina rose gracefully en Pointe and extended one slender leg behind her, like a dog at a fire hydrant. 24. It was an American tradition, like fathers chasing kids around with power tools. 25. He was deeply in love. When she spoke, he thought he heard bells, as if she were a garbage truck backing up.

So that's less than 30% right? No take-over?

"The Geordie fans will be pleased to hear that I tuned down a £70Million offer with a promised transfer kitty of £100Million, because the interested party was not a local lad. I know what's important to our loyal band of followers and the Geordie Nation can rest assured that I will never allow dirty money to soil this proud club. Why Aye man, Geordie, Stottie Cake."

I can't imagine Freddie The Hutt going for this. If he lost his limelight he'd be gutted.

I've not seen Elf. Thought it looked shit.

Ooh I might get that too. I haven't seen Swingers. Is it any good? 181828[/snapback] Aye. Funny how Favreau has been shit in everything since, and Vaughn has been quality.

It's unacceptable to have Wullie scorn me. http://www.asda-entertainment.co.uk/asda/5...displayName=DVD Even if it's shite, at that price i can't afford not to buy it.

When you've seen a Tarantino film, you can look down on me. Until then, shut it!

You've got to listen to the little man!

I'm not tired of the format, because I think the characters make the show. It's not about the tasks, or the rewards, but the personalities. Which are different every year. Something like "I'm a celebrity" gets tired fast because it's centred around tasks that are repeated over and over. And love Island is about heart-throb blokes pulling hot chicks, no-one wants to see that. The bastards.
