Choon of the Day, redux

I take it back, that tune you just posted is horrible. Maybe we found love was just a one off?

You're such an aesthete, Benny.

I think you're on to something there, We Found Love is the best Rihanna song

its heious craner is an imbelcile

You're such an aesthete, Benny.

Strange accusation coming from you of all people!

I can get on board with plenty of cheap and nasty naffness but Calvin Harris' actual voice is beyond the pale

 

[Benny Bunter]

I didn't even get to the Rihanna bit tbh before I had to hit stop

 

[luka]

a lot of people dont understand that the craner is deeply provincial. hes not an urban sophisticate like me. you have to grasp this to really get the project.

 

[luka]

hes literally from wales.

 

[luka]

its not an arch joke. he actually is from swansea.

 

[Benny Bunter]

I'm from Cumbria, doesn't get any more provincial than that

 

[luka]

i think of cumbria as being like greenwich. a place that only exists for tourists. theres no there there. swansea is different. no tourists go to swansea

 

[Benny Bunter]

I know what you mean but I'm not from the Lake District, I'm from the west coast, you couldn't get any more backward, apart from maybe Swansea I suppose

 

[Benny Bunter]

We're bringing back coal mining!

 

[luka]

whats thr name of the place. i like looking upthe tsakewaay options

 

[Benny Bunter]

Aspatria. Doubt you'll find many takeaway options but there used to be a 'chinky' as it was known where you could get chips and gravy

 

[Benny Bunter]

Swansea looks absolutely terrifying

souns italian

 

[Benny Bunter]

It's Roman, the last time there was an advanced civilization there, all gone now

 

[luka]

cardiff is slightly more sophisticated and the main drag is lined with strip bars

 

[Benny Bunter]

Worst place in England that I've ever been to was Preston, got dragged along on a stag night with some old school 'friends' a few years after I'd left Cumbria for good and we ended up at a strip club. We went on a minibus. Deeply traumatising experience, Preston is literally the worst place in the world

 

[william_kent]

Preston used to have to the biggest bus station in the world as far as I can recall

your Brutalist architecture buffs used to cream over the bus station

 

[Benny Bunter]

Didn't know where to put myself so I had a sort of out of body experience out of sheer survival, anywhere but here please please let me the ground swallow me up
