For example? Here's a classic case of sour grapes. A middle-aged women I once knew became a dyke following her divorce and became a firm believer in some sort of self-styled 'sexual apartheid' in which men and women should be segregated and not allowed to mingle/cohabitate, etc. Pure crap and a fin...

Years ago, a musician interviewed on TV claimed that he scratched the surface of the gold record he was awarded, only to find that it was another band's album, cheaply spray-painted gold. I was always skeptical about this, thinking that maybe the guy was indulging in a playful leg-pull, but, no, whe...

My agent's company got purchased by none other than Bill Gates - yet I still achieve more by promoting myself. DIY, folks!

I am of the opinion that some of the things said by feminists and lesbians are indeed crap. For example? Here's a classic case of sour grapes. A middle-aged women I once knew became a dyke following her divorce and became a firm believer in some sort of self-styled 'sexual apartheid' in which men a...

are you saying that all blanket statements like that are ridiculous?

---- Correct me if I am wrong (yes, I don't mind being corrected if I am wrong) but I don't recall actually making any 'blanket statement'. Or is someone just being petty?

Okay so theres this guy lives in a cave and a trillion dollar hightech army cant find him

Yeah, well, narrow-minded extremism in all its forms ought to be frowned upon, right Quiffy? I got an e-mail from a friend in London just five minutes ago. He said he's okay, doing well, all that. He has a house in Stoke Newington and a spare room there as well, but I don't want to go back to the UK...

When didn't I? Or are you referring to me personally? Mine was not (intended as) a blanket statement, but whoever issues them is certainly full of crap.

I am of the opinion that some of the things said by feminists and lesbians are indeed crap. But that doesn't make me a Falwell supporter. So, is the killing of innocent commuters, rather than high-profile politicians, 'safer' because there is less retribution, or is it coz pollys can't be as easily ...

I guess the timing re: G8 is.... partly intended to deliver one huge slap in the face to Blair, Bush et al. I wouldn't think it has anything to do with Africa, aid or global warming. None of those are issues Osama and his cronies have blathered on about. He's not exactly an ecologist. --- LOL! &quo...

johnny, your friend may not be "prone to fabrication" but i fail to see how her profession makes her passing on an unsubstantiated report any more credible than if she worked at the checkout in the local supermarket? if she has a genuine, direct source then fair enough but it sounds to me...

The G8 summit requires a huge security effort. As the summit is in in Scotland, the UK's security forces are dragged away from London, making the events supposedly difficult to deal with. This is exhibited by the fact that Tony Blair has had to travel a long way back to London and then back to G8 t...

The popular holiday island resort of Bali is part of Indonesia. Shortly after the "Bali bombing", in which a backpacker nightspot was blown to smithereens, I was in a casino and got chatting to an Indonesian gambler. He spoke of the statistics and casualty reports and said of those people ...

I couldn't find a can opener, so I'm having something else...

With my own minibar there too, right? And my home office, as well, I guess.

BTW, I'm not an idiot.

It's unusual, the way my home office is arranged, my laptop sits on top of my minibar fridge. And I just pulled a can of pineapple pieces out of said fridge, hungrily saying to myself, "Hmmm, I hope these fuckers have got a Use By date on them!" At the same time, I was thinking about a Sis...

Well I hope it was all a very cathartic, purging experience for Von.

I've not enjoyed Marian as much as I used to since I read a review (the link's around here somewhere) in which Steve Sutherland describes the song as 'emotional blackmail'.

Does anyone use this free music download website? I'm trying to figure out how I save songs to CD. At present they are all on my Desktop, inside the Limewire icon when you double click on it. I run Windows 98 (second edition) on a Toshiba notebook PC. It would be nice if the songs were on CD, not th...

I feel bad even talking about this, but anyway... I am not a fan of Soft Cell generally, although they have a 12" mix of Tainted love which segues into their cover version of the Motown classic, Where Did Our Love Go? This was good - for the latter half of the song

In a word, yes.
