Probably because of some early prepubertal attachment that retarded development.
Cheese or chips?

Answer the fucking question :D
-
Th competitive fit calculator's all well and good but how are you supposed to know which of the fits are going to suit your riding style? Mine came out so divergent I didn't really know what to make of it.
-
Paine!
Fuck yeah.
Mum or Dad?
-
Dawn. Lovely, rosy-fingered Dawn.
The Beatles or the Stones?
-
Fuck me, did you see the speed of that shot? Amazing.

I thought the number of deer yesterday looked remarkably low.
This was today at about 11. They were rampant, I tells ya.
-
Anyone watching Barca/Real? Ronaldo should have done a lot better.

Oh, and the fannies are fantastic. I remember saving up and buying bandwagonesque on tape when I was about 14. I listened to that album over and over. Hasn't aged the best out of all their albums, that one, but nevermind.
Good celtic fans, too :-)
-
Hunners of deer out today, right up at the edge of the roads. Must be the lack of people/cars, this weather.

Seamonsters is the best, isn't it? Let's say yes.

The willingness to stand in the corner with me at social events and make sarcastic asides at those more socially competent than us.
What's your favourite album?
-
Pissing on a cat.
Favorite womble when small?
-
Yes, I once had to choose whether to save the mum or a child. I chose the child.
What do you most regret?
Most of it.
With which historical figure do you most accurately identify?
-
Yeah, extremely sluggish for me too. Only website that seems to be affected.
-
Sorry for the no-show - I got up and ready and left the house an' evrything, but I was kind of late and then I went the wrong way and I realised I'd probably miss the start, so I just went to Regent's on my own instead. Hope you all had a nice session.
-
Not him :D
-
No. But it's a nice thought that everyone rides a black Mercian in the afterlife.
-
Richard Wright, if anyone's heard of him, rides a black Mercian. This matters not a jot either.

*At Swim-Two-Birds *is good, if a bit relentless. How are you on Gaelic myth? The rest of his novels are gently disapointing - flashes of greatness, but not sustained I fear. *The Dalkey Archive *is tragic, a re-writing of TTP (which was originally rejected, and wasn't publsihed in his lifetime) he did late in life and it is poor. The Poor Mouth, originally in Gaelic, is probably amazing in that language, and is still fun in English (there's a fine trans. by Patrick Power). Having said that everything he wrote is very very good, and even bad Flann is better than much.
But for perfect bedtime dipping into you can't beat extracts from 'Cruiskeen Lawn', the daily column he wrote for the Irish Times for thirty years or so as 'Myles na gCopaleen'. Get *The Best of Myles, *or Further Cuttings From Cruiskeen Lawn, edited by his brother. They're bibliographically shonky, but the easiest way to get hold of this stuff.
That's wonderful, thanks so much. I have actually read bits of ASTB - completely went out of my head. But I need to re-read it properly. And no, my Gaelic's not so hot, as it goes - myth or language :-)

Innit man, as Flann O'Brien said, 'that poor writer's end was hastened by that damned intrusive apostrophe', or words to that effect. Incidently, has anyone mentioned Flann the man yet? *The Third Policeman *has important things to say about the relationship between man and bicycle, and is very funny. Indeed most of O'Brien's stuff is like Joyce with better jokes.
Yes yes yes - it is brilliant. TTP is all I've read, though. What else would you recommend?
@Plurabelle and Wiganwill
thanks for the advice. I will try again as i feel that i am really missing something if i don't read it.and yeah, FW can lead to bad aliases :)
didn't have to read it to get involved with te=hem though!Ha ha! I've been some sort of version of ALP on every internet thing I've ever been on.

Prostate cancer.
Sorry Dad, now lets get on and fight this fucker.
Sorry to hear that, Andy. Best wishes to your Dad.

I'm reading a book about how to interpret handwriting; very interesting.
I'm taking it down today. Every time I open the door I cringe. You win, you heartless bastard.
