Hi,
So the conclusion, at the end of this discussion is that ... this thread is not worth the discussion?
The monkey has won, indeed! No comprehension? Good gawd, I have to go talk to Bonzo about learning to do his teeth! |
If you've got something further to add to the discussion then say it.
Pithless social commentary on a little lighthearted banter we can get anywhere. |
Oh my word ... you just said you can banter and I can't! I'm gonna tell mommy on you! Bully!

Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Actually, A Passion Play got ripped by the press, Thick was quite popular. Also, calling Thick "serious"? Have you listened to it? As to calling it a bore, well, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Those bands he put down deserved it at least as much as he does.

I think there has always been an element of 'having your cake and eating it' with TAAB. Lampoon the genre and appear even more clever and aloof while actually getting your rocks off playing some challenging complex stuff. Ian is a clever man and all this time later still likes having his cake and eating it I reckon. Don't call me prog but here it is my.. ermm 'anti-prog masterpeice'

This conversation is beginning to make Tolstoy look like a slacker  |
You know I've always hated your avatar?  |
My son said the same a couple of years ago, and I ran a competition on the Just For Fun thread to get others opinions.
The monkey won hands down  |
I voted for change.  |
To my way of thinking, you have a number of choices in this extremely important issue (and certainly far more interesting than much of what we have read on this thread ):
1. You can pretend you are either Sarkosy or Merkel and impose a technocratic government upon Lazland and insist upon a new avatar in order to save the Lazland avatar from the vagaries of the markets. 2. Open up a new Lazland "Get The Monkey Out" thread/poll. 3. Accept that the monkey is here to stay and learn to love him. |
Ok lets address this point by point on a one to one ad hoc basis intended for maximum resolvent of the above stated issues.
1 (i) Sounds interesting, but pretence doesn't resolve this serious issue in the "real world" 2 (ii) This is infinitely possible and I may start a committee to look into this. 3(iii) Oh Ok then..........but love? NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
1. Are you seriously suggesting that the markets do not exist in the real world? Time for you ro erect a tent in St Pauls, methinks 2. I must insist upon consultation, with ultimate veto powers, into the makeup of this committee. This should be accompanied by a full Royal Commission into the potential emotional breakdown impact of getting rid of the monkey. 3. The monkey insists upon being loved. Do you really want an appearance on Jeremy Kyle???? |
1. I draw your attention to a remark attributed to Lazland in the original document "1. You can pretend you are either Sarkosy or Merkel ". I think that about covers that without further protection under canvas! 2. You can insist all you like. But it's like banging your proverbial against a constructed barrier of clay cuboids. 3. Alas my hatred of the monkey knows no bounds. But i would rather sever my wrists and depart this brief existence before I would set foot in any television studio which contained the presence of Mr Kyle!!!! |
1. Have you considered becoming an EU Commissioner? 2. Have you considered becoming an EU Commissioner? 3. Have you considered becoming an EU commissioner?
Democracy shall be victorious!!??
BTW - spent this afternoon watching the Mighty Quins beating Cardiff. Happy days
