Indeed. I suggested last night here that **** in a pit of shit was a much healthier option in life than being aware of such degredation…

Anyway, here the BBC have provided everybody with a chance of hearing a snippet of "Hibakusja".

Now listen to that.

"I do find it worrying how easily he gets out of breath though."

I saw that too when he was sitting on the beach in B.C. with the pretty first nation conservationalist girl. I couldn't stop myself thinking that he was thinking, "she'd make a good wife", and he was getting a wee bit nervous about the whole thing.

I'm on my second mule, and I'd go for a Hawg next time. For the extra storage it's a tiny weight penalty, and with the same amount of gear carried, a hawg is less likely to have that "convex" wobbly bulgy feeling on your back that a mule gets when full.

I have bear love for Ray.

Well I think there's nothing wrong with it. Considering the activities of some inhabitants of this Island (consensual viewing of Xfactor, Celeb's ice dancing on come, shopping as a hobby, ugg boots etc) **** in a pit of shit seems a healthy lifestyle choice that should be promoted abroad to try and bring in more tourists for luxury weekends, especially since it's probably frowned upon in many wealthy European countries due to conservative legislation enacted by elites who have plenty of room to fill a bathtub full of shite and have a **** at the expense of everybody else. Perhaps if the farmer involved had such insight he wouldn't need the subsidies I am currently at this moment paying him to stop free men and women having a wee bit of slurry selfsex.

Sister, EVOL, and Bad moon rising, Daydream nation and most of Goo. Bad moon rising is my fave, followed closely by Sister. Anyway, my motivation to start this little thread tonight was to spread the greatness of Accelerator.It really rips the arse out of nearly everything rock related that came after. Lightning bolt have the sound, but no songs/structure. Animal collective have imagination, but no soul (and terrible mixing of the end result). Dirty projectors have the ideas but sound like a Steve Albini recorded puritan family choir. Since 27th April 1998 no one has released a better rock album than Accelerator.

"Thank you" sounds like it was made by a different band IMO. Check out "hand of glory", the "lost" album…It's crap.(IMO)

Anyway, I think Sonic youth haven't made a good record since "Goo". I'm 36, but look 27.

Accelerator is totally different to Thank You, and Sweet Sixteen for that matter. And everything that came before them. It's an ultra poppy crunchy wide ranging rockfest in a Royal Trux style. It is brilliant, and I'm very hard to please.

"I think if he had filled his own bath up with slurry and done the deed no-one would really have an issue with it to be fair."

Ok, so what you are saying is that people with non-Heteronormal sexualities should hide away in caves etc, and become second class citizens?

Sieg **** heil!

They don't die in wars for that sort of attitude.

"Save it for the appeal committee sadafaris"

Ask yourself…what is the difference between bathing in dung and wrapping rubber bands tightly around one's scrotum and phallus before commencing a tug?

Nothing, that's what. No animals are hurt during the proceedings.

Now why should you be allowed to wrap rubber bands around your scrotum and phallus before commencing a moment of self love, and this man cannot bathe in dung?

Perhaps it's a trespassing issue.

Why would covering oneself with shite and having a **** be a jailable offence? It makes no sense…

Seriously though, where's the harm? I thought this was a free country.

Accelerator is the ultra compressed "80's" album of the trilogy, the finale after "thank you" and "sweet sixteen". It's a hell of a lot more immediate than either. It is fantastic.

Did the sunny south solely subsidise the sickening £62 BILLION safety net for FAILED adventure in extreme capitalistic ideoLOLogy this year?

I think not.

I saw a bashguard at Afan last weekend. It was stuck to my bike. The reason why it was attached to my bike is that it was cheaper to buy a Stylo crankset from the Chain reaction flood sale last year than to replace worn chain rings. I wonder now why mountainbikes are not specced with one as standard, considering I never used the big ring on the last crankset. I'm sure not using the big ring makes me "ghey" in some hardman's eyes, but so be it. It probably weighs about the same as the useless appendage it replaced, and it actually has a purpose.

Ginola on Newsnight now. He's ashamed.

Now the French may have a predilection for protecting and defending entertainment industry paedophiles, but this is a step too far as far as I'm concerned.

I think civilised societies should reintroduce the concept of shame.

@flyingmonkeycorps, You HAVE to see Sunn0))) live, the volume genuinely adds something really important to what they do. The records don't really do it for me much, but I saw them in Melbourne 4 or 5 years ago and was totally blown away (although my mate doing sound that night ignored the volume restrictions and pushed everything into the red on the mixing desk). I've seen My Bloody Valentine live and Sunn0))) on that occasion made them sound like the Pastels…

Sunn 0))) at KOKO in December. I ride with the guy who books music there = free gigs!

"It looks naked."

It looks inside-out.

Actually PP, you OWE ME TIME!.

I foolishly followed your advice regarding servicing SPDs.

Never again.

Incase anyone is listening, do not just remove the pedal body and fill with grease. When you screw everything back together the grease and hydraulic pressure will not just push the old grease out, it will push the rubber seal off it's precarious lip and necessitate a complete strip down of the pedal's innards complete with micro balls in order to put it back where it belongs.

Confusing mild religious difference with the real reason for the conflict in N.I. seems to be alive and well it seems. I always thought that's what some British people did to make themselves feel better (or superior, or both).

Anyone interested in purchasing a Moog Prodigy?

I'll suggest that if she had the courage of Major she could have saved hundreds of lives in Norn Iron. But she didn't.

What would you know? You didn't grow up there.

"I'm pretty sure I was agreeing with you. No?"

I was pretty sure that you were not, and I'm glad to be wrong if that's the case.

I can't help feeling though that in Ireland and many countries there are many people who do not feel any obligation to acknowledge the dead soldiers of the British army. I can hardly blame those with that opinion, there may well be a damn good reason for it as I said before. Many Irishmen fought and died in the world wars including members of my family so I whilst having reservations I feel no problem in observing rememberances in my own way.

However I doubt that ALL soldiers in ALL wars are in the mind of those with poppy fever.

"utterly irrelevant. As others said, it's about showing respect for ALL soldiers, ALL sides and ALL conflicts."

Does that include the IRA?

No, I thought not. Perhaps you could read my post again and educate us all.

"And the reason she loudly ignores it? She was born in Ireland so she hates all British soldiers… Cow."

And have you ever paused for a moment and considered why she hated all British soldiers? She may have a damn good reason. But that's another thread I suppose. Still, she could stay quiet IMO for all the Irish who died in WW1/2 and keep her genuine complaints about British troops in Ireland for another time.

I can open another bottle if you like Sidney, two bottles for £7 up the street.

Infantile insecure twittering skidmark-comparing "hello I'm Me!!!" cretins are responsible for this inglorious nation's demise into a third world shithole. The FACT that maturity has somehow escaped what appears to be the majority of the last three generations of parents has led to a nationscape littered by nappy slipping shit smeared self indulgence and Peter Mandelson to the time of three.

"the tail is mostly reabsorbed."

Speak for yourself mate!

HOHOHOHHHHHOHOHOHHOHOH!

What about those individuals with their "organs" on their head?

"Not annoyed just all smileyfaced at your mighty and superior tone; hubris aint pretty"

What, smileyfaced at my brotherly advice regarding inexpensive commuters?

I tell you what, next time I'll suggest he post on STW and see if he can get a roadrat or something a bit more "Ted Nugent" together from donations.

Or do you have a problem with my posts on this thread? Surely you could at least indicate where I've gone wrong? That's the point of posting after all.

"it's not evolution, it's a hormonal process."

No, Chuck is correct, Simon is wrong.

And Bomberman, I love you.

"I don't like the harsh undercurrent of misogyny in sodafarls posts"

I am a misogynist, I said as much a long time ago. I'm a Misandrist too. I don't eat dairy as it brings me out in hives.

I don't like the undercurrent of IT professional in SFB's posts, but I don't feel inclined to tell everyone.

OOOOH!… Andrewf/heathenwood seems annoyed about something I've said. Maybe a few old parts for his next charity bike could patch things up? Or a Comus bootleg?

It's funny though, how some some people can get by with cheap bikes they've purchased for themselves and be happy with it.

"I'm of the opinion that anyone who either cares about the supposed issues raised by the OP, or would feel inclined to bleat about it rather than laugh at the pathetic Stepford Wives scenario, is a T.W.A.T. And if that includes you, well please accept my most insincere apologies."

Reading that it appears that im referring to SFB.

That simply is not true.

It refers to everybody on this forum cowed by the dictates of the neurotic way of life and the barking she-seals basking on the rocks of reality.

"coming to different conclusions is not offensive in itself"

Wow! We Agree!

And your opinion on getting all upset about The Stepford Wives reading ones daily poo blog? Or getting upset about a "friend's" blog detailling the tedious minutae of mediocre adulthood?

That is what I posted about after all. I'm not interested in breastfeeding to be honest.

"it take it you actually mean women ?"

Yes I do, but I suppose some "men" may exhibit the same fundamental failings.

"would a child be so damaged to know its mother cared about it ? "

It may well be damaged to discover the effeminacy exhibited by the OP.

I'm of the opinion that anyone who either cares about the supposed issues raised by the OP, or would feel inclined to bleat about it rather than laugh at the pathetic Stepford Wives scenario, is a T.W.A.T. And if that includes you, well please accept my most insincere apologies.

"surely most of us fall into that category ?"

Few of us excell at anything, but few are so pitiful to be concerned to such a degree at what a herd of she-cows care about any aspect of our pitiful existence. And it's even worse if he/she considers them "friends". And it's worse still to post he/she's concerns on a public forum, there for the suckling whelp to discover in ten year's time should nobody decide to wipe out the forum again over any time over that period should the moderator insult a contributing member, for example.

The misery of mediocre adulthood.
