I got through all of 4 lines in that song before turning it off.


In other news, I leave for Florida after work today, then to the Poconos Monday. No work for a week and a half!! I'm hoping the break will keep the hate in check.

I'm having a break this year, it's called Summer. Student scumbagdom is glorious.

And if you only lasted four lines you missed the little kid president nuking the world! 9 out of 10 Politicians fear rap satire!

Have a great couple of weeks, I'll probably be on at some point but if I'm not, know that I'm having more fun than you.

Oh, and I most likely HAVE mentioned this before, but I'm going to England next June, starting on the 1st for two, maybe even three weeks depending.

So I hope you guys clear your schedules for me.

Anyways as to the lanky Canadian royal visit. Hopefully I'll be able to make it down for the inevitable booze up but you do seem to be coming right at the end of term so I may have exams, not sure how the year is structured yet.

Plus I'm buggered if I'm organising a night out a year in advance, e-mail the Britpacks self appointed social secretary (ie Nick) in may like a normal person.

Then e-mail me so I can do all the work.

Is that a resigned shrug a dismissive shrug or an offended shrug?

Cause honestly I was going for offensive.

Ok, well, honestly, I didn't care.

You're Siythe, you like to be a dick.

It's why I like you.

Although Nick did take me aside one time, electronically, and ask me if I hated you for how horrible you are.

And much to my consternation, you leapt to Duckboy's defence and said that your abrasive manner was a way of concealing your very real desire for him.

Who'da thunk it?

To respond to other comments on this page:

Fuck you Nick, Downey Jr was only good as Tony Stark, and lets face it, can it be considered acting for him to play an obnoxious alcoholic?

John Simm, OTOH, is greatness


As to Oats coming over *gets flags out*

I know it's a year away but I like to be prepared well in advance

As such Im off to Superdrug for some vaseline and Trojans

Wasnt the first thing that lept out at me to be honnest but then I'm not a Mag's fan. Still its from the same team that did WWH Vs. X-men mini so if nothing else the fights should be cool. Hell we may even get a good  plot.

What was the first thing that lept to mind?

We will also get a Magneto/Apocalypse tussle, which should be interesting.

By interesting, I mean awesome because it's clear already Magneto wins.

It's just so rare to see Magneto use energy blasts, I'm always very happy when I see it.

Watching 'Would I Lie To You' last night.

I think both Lee Mack and David Mitchell are great, and the guests are usually good too. But outside of his usual 'Have I Got News For You' spiel and reading the questions, Deaton generally does fuck-all, in stark contrast to hosts of similar shows, like Stephen Fry, Simon Amstell, Dara O'Breian and even Nick Hancock. What makes it worse is watching the guests at the beginning pretending to laugh at Deaton's scripted 'jokes'. Makes me pine for Paul Merton.

The last show was unusual because Deaton actually made ONE genuinely amusing adlibbed comment, and it made me realise how shit he is the rest of the time.

Beeb shouldn't have rehired him IMO. On the other hand, at least he doesn't take away from Mitchell and Mack's time cracking jokes.

Still never actually got to see that, always fancied it though based purely on the inclusion of the two gloriously talented comics you mentioned yourself just now

Sounded like an interesting format as well

Once you get past the guests fake-grinning at the beginning, it's a very funny show. Probably my favourite panel game after 'QI' and IMO it's generally funnier than 'QI'. Just not QUITE as INTERESTING.

'QI' also seems content to have a revolving panel of about 12 guests now, like Jo Brand, Bill Bailey, Jimmy Carr and Sean Lock. 'Would I Lie To You' goes a bit further with its guests, including 'serious' actors', 'celebrities' and that kind of thing.

Hmmm, looking at the Wiki page for the next series of 'QI', looks like they'll be bringing in some interesting new guests:

Hugh Dennis
Ben Miller
Marcus Brigstocke
John Sergeant
Emma Thompson
Dom Joly

and

MOTHERFUCKING TERRY WOGAN!!!1!
