    Will Trump smash up the White House?

    Donald's buckled loafer crashing down on the White House toilet seats, snapping them clean off their hinges, before he smashes all the windows in the West Wing with a golf club. Barron carving USA into the Oval Office desk, then coating his BMX wheels in black paint and pushing the bike up and...

    I got a bit obsessed with "...Peckham Rye" and ended up having to look at Google Maps, the area must have been so different in the '50s (I get the same disconnect when she writes about Kensington, immediately post-WW2). I really liked it, she does this seamless flipping between...

    Feels like Trump rambled into a dictaphone and whoever he paid to edit it just transcribed it verbatim. Keep cool, don't let your emotions interfere with negotiations, always keep your word, I'm not in it for the money, never forgot my friends, it's a rough old business, gave a zillion to...

    what are you reading now?

    I didn't really see any racism* in 'Angels From Hell', though that's the only one of his I've read. Whereas Richard Allen's skinhead books are full of whinging about immigrants and lefties, and usually have at least one "watch your backs, lads" moment. Norman's writing's a lot better and more...

    The Christmas Thread

    Beautiful clear, bright blue sky in NW11 right now - feels more like Spring. May everyone's future be as bright, and the tide turn on the wankers who've caused such misery these past few years!

    The Christmas Thread

    I've done this all arse about backwards. The plan was to get trashed on Xmas Eve and have a quiet, contemplative, hungover Xmas Day make some nosh and veg out. Instead, I had a couple of brews last night and ended up writing loads of shit until 4am. And now it's 1.31pm and I can't be arsed to...

    The Christmas Thread

    I've done a couple of Christmases on my own before, so tomorrow shouldn't be too weird. And most family gatherings used to end in some row or another, with my oldest sister drinking too much and storming out crying, or my dad taking the dog out for a five-hour walk, anyway - so always saw the...

    Brexit Day

    Great band - streaming live after Slav To The Rhythm on Boxing Day. Tea and Rich - don't worry, my mum voted Leave too. And she's an ultra-Catholic...oh hang on...

    Chess

    I thought I'd give chess a go this year, along with the other zillion things I've had time to do. I HATE it. Now I realise why I thought "Liquid Swords" was boring. I suck at it, keep blindly moving into traps. I'm only playing the free chess thing that comes with the PC but I have to put the...

    Emasculation of the Western Man

    Maybe there's something in this (thinking about Japan too). Also weird how porn's illegal in most of Thailand but you can just walk into a bar and see someone in a school uniform shooting ping-pong balls from their crotch.

    Emasculation of the Western Man

    Oh God, yeah. My cousins in Sligo are farmer types. Used to go there on school summer holidays ('holidays' :rolleyes:) and have to help them build haystacks while my dad drove my mum around religious sites - would be in excruciating pain for days after. More wirey than well built, but they could...

    Rouge’s Malady on The Neon Hospice

    Just wanted to say: I thought last night was fucking ace. A whole tortuous year of people over-hyping 'improv' kitchen sets and banal Bandcamp electronic shit...and Xylitol blew it all out of the water. That set was utterly incredible. Shame on any 'NAU' wankers who couldn't be arsed to tune in...

    The Harder They Come vs The Godfather

    Harder They Come = the Jimmy Cliff film? I'm sure you mean that, but don't know if there's some mafia film of the same name. If so, I'd probably vote for that, though I've never see The Godfather.

    Worst songs you've ever heard?

    Music Sounds Better Than You in 'Worst Songs'...wtf? I feel like K-Punk did when everyone on Dissensus supported Preston, Chantelle and Barrymore vs George Galloway / Pete Burns. This thread shouldn't be about stuff you kinda dislike, or don't like 'cos of connotations...we're here to observe...

    Emasculation of the Western Man

    It's weird, I've had gay/lesbian mates, my nephew's gay, hated the fash PE teachers who made my childhood a misery, can't even fight that well unless I'm in kamikaze mode, never once occurred to me to worry about trans people in the toilet etc etc - but I see some bloke on Twitter in a cardigan...

    Emasculation of the Western Man

    Yeah, that does ring a bell, think it was around the time they also screened Nick Broomfield's 'Fetishes'? Probably running some 'sex season'. The only thing I remember about 'Fetishes' is the bloke licking the toilet bowl. Again, totally defend your freedom to blah blah but :sick: 🤮

    Emasculation of the Western Man

    I think I saw that too...it's a blonde woman and they pixel out his plonker while she's grating it and he's screaming, right? It's like with Operation Spanner: feel obliged to support the consenting defendants on grounds of basic freedom, but please don't tell me the details because now I can't...

    Worst songs you've ever heard?

    Yeah, and I'd rather listen to Mr Blobby a million times while WYH's tormentrix cracks out the cheese grater than ever think about that Bodyrox song again. Also, the Mr Blobby video, daft as it was, wasn't as bad as some 39-year old alcoholic divorced bod in a creative agency, spinning around...
