I know, but I was of course making a funny. I don't think the word ba*tard should be censored.

Me neither but interestingly a man with "Start Ya b*****d" on his van, which is a product from Aus for engines, had to remove it or face jail.

Pure madness.


Interesting.... Did that happen outside of Australia. b*****d is such an inoffensive word in Australia (at least I remember it being used so commonly). Used a lot in the UK too, of course.  Edmund "the Black Adder" was a right royal b*****d.

Bugger is a rude one that I like to use frequently (expect that'll be censored). "Well bugger me with a fishfork". Bugger is acceptable?

By the way, when I was a child I overheard (or was I told?) that a boy was illegitimate.  I went up to him later and said, "I heard you're illiterate".

I voted Dream Theater.

I don't think they're that good a band; though they're brilliant musicians, their songs are rather formulaic and LaBrie gets on my nerves.

But Magma are just plain awful. I've had more enjoyment at the dentists than listening to one of their albums.

Every thread with DT in it gets this response. You should've seen this coming.

Mind you... I have to tip my hat to you for some pretty good trolling.

Yes! K.A. is a masterpiece.

Probably wouldn't make any difference if he had heard most every Magma album.  I expect the only thing he'd like is "Call From the Dark (Ooh Ooh Baby)"
