Gibberings CXXXII: Like an overweight person consuming a poor-tasting biscuit

[Shambles]

Lose the second hyphen. Or - if really necessary - "shit-tasting" could be amended to "shitty-tasting".

Also, guess what flopped through me doorflap this very morn, Jed?

Wasn't expecting an actual CD though. Was thinking you were meaning a copy not a copy. As such you will be pleased to know that The Bee Gees now account for a full 20% of my entire non-copied CD collection :D

OK Shambles let's see how shit-tasting biscuit goes down.

 

[StoneHappyMonday]

Like a fat person eating a shit, tasting a biscuit.

Haha, Now people will think you really went out of your way to get a special copy. Hope you enjoy it anyway...

^ Quite. It better live up to the hype now or I will look a bit silly having it featured so prominently in my music collection :D

Many thanks

Dam right Shambles, I got to watch it by total random luck.
I have never sat there with my jaw open so much through one film before, without question my favourite film I have ever seen & I am quite a cinephile & pride myself on my film knowledge.

I did actually "get it" at the end too, the message was get off your arse, go live your life & do what you want to do before you die.
A freind put it on too at a party where we were all tripping hard, me being wise to what was about to happen sat back with a strange grin on my face watching the rest of the people there have their brains & visual cortex attacked.

One of my faves too. Probably Jodorowsy's most enjoyable film (and I'm a bit Jodorowsky fan in general). If only for sheer spectacle and level of wtf?!? I've yet to find anybody who doesn't like it on at least on some level. For anybody yet to have had the pleasure, The Holy Mountain trailer. If you don't want to see this film immediately after watching that you are beyond saving

I'd also somewhat disagree with the "get off your arse and live" message. It's definitely part of it but is such a complex and multi-layered film there are a gazillion "messages" in there really. That is undoubtedly one of 'em though.

If you like Jodorowsky you should maybe try to check out his mate Fernando Arrabal. Very similar stylistically and thematically only he never became as well-known overseas and remained very much "underground". If anything, his films are even more wtf-laden than Jodorowsky's. Which really is saying summat :D

EDIT: Beaten to the punch with the Holy Mountain trailer. Leaving it in cos it's doubledamnawesome so deserves doubletrailer action.

Well also it says get naked, make weird Jesus things, blow up frogs, dance with dead animals dressed in gas masks, learn some type of kung fu & fight a man in a weird hat, do naked bum prints, burn your money, get a dwarf with no arms to kick you around the floor, start wars with Peru, go up a mountian, get sprayed with breast milk shot from a half shaved naked man who has leopard boobs, watch dog fights.

Well that's what it told me to do anyway

I picked the bestest day ever to not be in work. Gorgeous sunshine and gardening snoo-ness.

Oh my, I need to watch this. Buggered if I'm ever going to watch it when tripping, though.

 

[Shambles]

^ Do eeeeeeeeet! You won't be disappointed %)

Ya. It says all that stuff too :D

It's such a shame that Jodorowky's version of Dune fell through. Much as I Lynch's version Jodorowsky's take on it just looked fukkin incredible. Designs by Geiger, Salvador Dali as the Emporor... *swoons*. Short film about the almost-making of Jodorosky's Dune here

I was eating a roast beef roll when I clicked on that. Mistake!

Yes I want to see it now. Not while I'm munching on meat though!

Sorry if I wrecked your dinner

Since when did lighbulbs become so expensive? 7.30 euros for a small one.

 

[Shambles]

We get them free from the council where I live %)

 

[JedTheHumanoid]

I wish england could devolve itself too. Actually scratch that it'd be wall to wall tory fucks down south...

I eat so much working from home. Just stood at the fridge eating big lumps of cheese. Drunk four diet cokes. I'd have been better off ordering a gram of Ethel.

 

[Shambles]

We've got a fukkin Tory MP in my constituency now. Fuck knows how that happened. Well, actually it probably happened cos the one before the current one was Lembit Opik :D

(i quite liked the dutty auld cheeky girl shagger actually - definitely better than a fukkin tory cunt )

 

[Shambles]

Just read this article in the Grauniad from a couple weeks back co-written by Prof Nutt. If only Mike Powers' article published a week later had half as much to recommend it. Both tackling the same (or closely related) subject matter but the former actually has something to say for itself rather than just cutting and pasting bits and pieces together.

The three drugs that came out top share the capacity to broaden one's inner world and scope for emotional and spiritual attachment. LSD and magic mushrooms have no recorded drug-related deaths to their name, are used sparingly by most users, and virtually no one becomes dependent.

Other one of the top three rated being MDMA.

Mephedrone (also known as M-cat and meow meow), once considered as a drug with a positive low-risk profile, now tops the negative rankings for after-effects and unwanted effects on mental health.

Guessing MM didn't take part then

At least the lib dems will admit being sleazy.

Ask Ismene about it. And find out his name has nothing to do with the operation, but he does know about it.

As knock says, my name has nothing to do with operation ismene..nothing at all. There is nothing to see here..

..but it all depends on the luck of the drawer. I think if customs finds class A addressed to you then they'll contact the police and inform them. If you have previous, or even if they've nothing better to do, then you can expect a visit from half a dozen of the cunts swinging a sledgehammer at your front door. If you can, try and stick to buying within the UK. Less risk.
