That's fair enough. But I'm not a SirJames Blast wrote:Not at all Sir, I just cannot find anything but frustration and sadness from my brief viewings of The Michty Boosh. They come across as two retards in search of a carer. Your mileage seems to vary from mine.

the religious 'leaders' sure have a long way to go to bind this into the words of the old books (what I think is perfectly possible) or even to make a reasonable comment/statement.
Q. Why don't I have a job?
A1. Because you have no skills, no application, and no aptitude, having slacked off at school, and have been fired from every job you ever had for showing up late, smoking in the kitchen, and calling your boss a cnut.
Hmmm...don't like that answer. What else you got?
A2. Because the jews are in control of the global economy, the asians come over here, steal all the jobs and hire their huge families to work for them, and women are entitled to equal pay for equal work.
I like that one a lot more. C'mon lads, let's go yell insults at the rag-'eads and burn a few synagogues.
Or in the case of Mr-Aliens-Person:
A2: It's Aliens, I tell you! It's a government conspiracy, they all know about it and they're trying to keep me quiet, but see if they can, ha! What's that? No - get away from me! Aaaaarrgghhh! Krrr-zzzzzttttt! Wheeee - happy dreams.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

I can't help but feel you're a little bit rude to me whenever I post here. Have I done anything wrong?

I got the Mighty Boosh book as a Christmas present from a well-meanng aunt. I didn't have the heart to tell her that they bore the pants off me. I just don't get it at all. They probably call it 'surrealism'. I call it 'shite'. I've still got the book. Anyone for trading?
