The Last Word

[MrJan]

Is it not the end of the week in Canada? :confused:

[schmenke]

No, we have 8-day weeks.





Or so it often feels... :mark:

[Donney]

No, we have 8-day weeks.





Or so it often feels... :mark:

So did the Beatles.

[MrJan]

I could make some sort of derogatory remark about Canadians at this point but I really don't have it in me to think of one that would be even remotely amusing. Instead I shall just take the LW.

[CarlMetro]

I've got that Friday feeling :D

[DonnieDarco]

Its not Friday :D

[Rollo]

Do you need a passport to go to Lovely?

[djarumdudley]

Mine!

[Donney]

Yours?

[Mp3 Astra]

Yeup

[CarlMetro]

What's a yeup :confused:

[djarumdudley]

mine again!!

[LeonBrooke]

I'm having a five-day weekend :D

We had Friday off, and Tuesday is a public holiday, so the people at university decided to give us Monday off as well ;)

[djarumdudley]

what a beautiful situation that is!

[LeonBrooke]

Oh yes, very much.

I'm taking the LW on holiday with me, and it actually wants to go with me :p :

[djarumdudley]

that may be a problem as the LW isn't wuite ready to pack it's bags!

[DonnieDarco]

Yes, it is a problem :D

[MrJan]

Sunny

[stevie_gerrard]

yes, it is sunny today, well observed :p :

[Donney]

Indeed.

[DonnieDarco]

Its a beautiful day :D

[harvick#1]

no it isn't its very cold here

[djarumdudley]

ah, sweet Super Bowl Sunday last word!

[harvick#1]

I wish the super bowl was over already, I'm tired of hearing the same crap for the past 2 weeks :mad:

[djarumdudley]

true the build up gets reduntant and tedius after awhile, but it's part of the mystique of the game.

[LeonBrooke]

Well, the game will have happened by now. Was it a good one?

[CarlMetro]

It ain't started yet :rolleyes:

[LeonBrooke]

Has it now? When is it?

[harvick#1]

The colts won and the LW is mine :p :

[LeonBrooke]

You've got a fact wrong there.

The LW is mine! ;)

[DonnieDarco]

Yes, you have :D

[CarlMetro]

I know I have..............









































...........it :D

[fly_ac]

Wrong! :cheese:

[Donney]

My back to work LW.

[fly_ac]

Right! :cheese:

[Donney]

Left.

[stevie_gerrard]

up, up and away, its buzz LW :p :

[schmenke]

Buzz needs fresh batteries :D

[DonnieDarco]

My cat does not need batteries! :D

[Donney]

Congratulations!

[MrJan]

thank you

[Donney]

You are welcome.

[CarlMetro]

You're not :p :

[schmenke]

Whaa...?

[Rollo]

I have just returned from my expedition to the coffee shop and and returned all-conquering with a black coffee and a friand. It's made by a company called Nez-Bours. And their slogan?

That's when good Nez-Bours become good friands.

[schmenke]

There's a lingerie shop that I pass by every day. I noticed a few days ago they posted a sign that read "Come on in and try us on for sighs."


(what's a friand? :erm: )

[harvick#1]

sounds like a new gang :mark:

[Rollo]

A friand is sometimes known by the much more oblique term of financier. They're more or less sponge cupcake thingos.

[CarlMetro]

Sounds nice, but not as nice as the LW :D

[Donney]

My LW sounds much nicer. :p :

[DonnieDarco]

Morning all :D

[Donney]

:wave:

[DonnieDarco]

I trust you are fully recovered Doney? No traces of lergy still lingering? :D

[CarlMetro]

Well if he ain't can you ask him not to breath all over the LW during his brief encounters with it :D

[Donney]

I am feeling fine, thank you DD! :)

[DonnieDarco]

I'll breathe all over it instead :D

[Donney]

I'm not sure the LW likes to be breathed over.

[DonnieDarco]

Oh.............thats unfortunate then :D

[schmenke]

That's enough DD.
I'll take over from here on... :D

[Rollo]

I bring tidings of joy and this message of hope for the future... Um...


... well the opening was good!

[CarlMetro]

I bring Pringles and a nice place for the LW to stay :D

[Rollo]

There's something more than a little worrying about compressed potato snacks in a can; worse they come from Belgium :eek:

[MrJan]

They're also covered in a thin layer of crack. turns out when people say that they are moreish they actually mean that they are highly addictive and may cause you to lose your grip on reality and become so desperate for your next pringles fix that you might even eat a live rat just for the crack soaked crumbs at the bottom of the can. True story :erm: ;)

[CarlMetro]

Well it is said that the first step in the battle against addiction is admitting that you're an addict. I can't do that though because I'm not addicted ;)

[DonnieDarco]

I worry about Miguel sometimes :D

[LeonBrooke]

I've been learning about pregnancy at uni. It sounds like a stressful time for a woman. I'm glad I'll never experience it first-hand, but I'll have no qualms about inflicting it on my future wife when the time comes ;)

[LeonBrooke]

This is post 666 for me. You know what that means?

[fly_ac]

:rotflmao:

[DonnieDarco]

Gee Leon, thats nice of you :D

[CarlMetro]

Well after what my wife went through, I'm glad it's not my turn next :eek:

[DonnieDarco]

I think thats a real shame :D

[CarlMetro]

I don't :eek:

[DonnieDarco]

No, I believe all men should experience the 'joy' of childbirth first hand, and I don't mean by being in the same room when its happening :D

[CarlMetro]

I'm not talking about the actual birth, more the last six months of the pregnancy itself :\

[DonnieDarco]

Yes, you'd hate to lose your figure ;) :D

[Donney]

My figure has been lost for many years now so that would not worry me, I don't fancy being pregnant though, i'ts a "joy" I can live without.

[djarumdudley]

as i can see you can live without the last word as well.

[stevie_gerrard]

mine for a while :D

[CarlMetro]

Too long already ;)

[Donney]

My LW.

[schmenke]

Ya think eh?

[DonnieDarco]

I think, therefore I am :D

[Donney]

I'll take the LW while you think or you are or whatever.

[CarlMetro]

Time for a bit of mid-week yoinking :D

[Rollo]

If you start that you'll go blind :mark:

[Donney]

And we don't want him to suffer, do we? :p :

[Rollo]

Rubbish!








...There's a lot of it outside isn't there?
Fancy a brew?

[DonnieDarco]

We do, some :D Not too much, but a bit :D

[schmenke]

You buying Rollo?

[LeonBrooke]

Nice chocolate, that :D

[fly_ac]

Chocolate and the LW goes nicely together. :cheese:

[Donney]

Chocolate.......

[fly_ac]

...and the LW

[Rollo]

Argh, it's all gone a bit Pete Tong in here :D

[DonnieDarco]

Business as usual then :D

[djarumdudley]

i concur

[schmenke]

I agree

[stevie_gerrard]

i dont :p :

[DonnieDarco]

My LW :D

[Rollo]

Stop!







Ok, Carry on.

[MrJan]

Is it worth owt?

[CarlMetro]

Priceless ;)

[MrJan]

That word has never really made sense to me, if it's priceless then why does it mean it's expensive. Another strange part of the English language.

[CarlMetro]

Not at all like the LW then ;)

[schmenke]

How would you know? :p :

[MrJan]

A man in a plastic mac told me. Then he asked if I wanted to touch his pole and I got scared. Turns out he just had a weird shaped tent pole. Still I've never felt the same about camping since.

[Rollo]

That word has never really made sense to me, if it's priceless then why does it mean it's expensive. Another strange part of the English language.

Look at the two parts of the word price and less, or if you wish sans price.
Something that is priceless literally has no price. It's not that it is expensive persay but that there is not a price on it; therefore you can not buy it.

Most priceless things are either abstract, unique items or experiences.
There are some things in life that money can't buy, for everything else there's Mastercard. - Case in point.

[DonnieDarco]

Money can't buy the LW :D

[djarumdudley]

hence, it must be stolen!

[LeonBrooke]

No, money can't buy the LW, but money can keep the LW happy once you've (read I've) got it :D

[fly_ac]

Yes, I can read it as I've got it :cheese:

[LeonBrooke]

Small factual error there:

I've got the LW :p :

[fly_ac]

Would that now read as I've got the LW? :D

[CarlMetro]

No it wouldn't ;)

[fly_ac]

Wouldn't What? :D

[harvick#1]

it will never be your LW because its mine, but I have to leave for work so the LW for me will not last long

:wave: good day everyone, haven't been here in a while

[fly_ac]

correct :D

[CarlMetro]

haven't been here in a while

Can't say I noticed :p :

[DonnieDarco]

Hello Harvick :D

[CarlMetro]

Hello DD :wave: Feeling better now or do we still have to wear our surgical masks?

[fly_ac]

Surgical Marks? Did anyone say Surgical Masks? I'll take the LW out of harms way. Oh my, RUN :D

[DonnieDarco]

Hello DD :wave: Feeling better now or do we still have to wear our surgical masks?

I'm better now, but please, keep the mask on :D

[Donney]

I'm taking the LW for a while.

[schmenke]

Not for long!

[Donney]

Don't worry I can solve that.

[DonnieDarco]

Thats good of you :D

[schmenke]

Fear not, schmeke is here!
To claim the LW,
For yet another year!


:D

[DonnieDarco]

That year sure zipped by in a hurry :D

[Donney]

Does it mean we won't see you till 2008?

[DonnieDarco]

Not me, Schmeke, as he calls himself :D

[schmenke]

Well, that's embarassing innit? :mark:

[DonnieDarco]

Vey uncool :D

[stevie_gerrard]

i think the LW needs a holiday from you all

[DonnieDarco]

Tough, never gonna happen

[DonnieDarco]

http://newsbiscuit.com/article/british-labour-market-flooded-by-workers-from-narnia

I blame you for this Rollo, its obvious you left the door to your old locker open. :D

[djarumdudley]

http://newsbiscuit.com/article/government-slammed-for-snowman-skills-shortage-002

this headline alone made me laugh my head off.

[DonnieDarco]

Its been awful Dudley, all that snow, and not a decent child snowman builder in sight :D

[fly_ac]

:rotflmao:

[Donney]

Where is the world going?

[fly_ac]

Where is the LW going? With me. :cheese:

[Donney]

I think you should know it isn't.

[CarlMetro]

..............because everyone knows it likes it here with me most :D

[Donney]

I don't think that is common knowledge.

[djarumdudley]

my lat word, you've had it for long enough.

[DonnieDarco]

You have the lat word then, while I have this last word :D

[Mp3 Astra]

I'll mash it up into pieces and reassemble it as mine

[Rollo]

I've woken up this morning to find five people either asleep on the lounge room floor or in the hall, and the remnants of a party.

How could someone have a party in my house without me knowing... whilst I was in it? :eek:

[CarlMetro]

Are you sure it's not a case of not remembering the party instead, I did that a lot when I was younger :\

[DonnieDarco]

Or, coming home blind drunk and just passing out rather than sleeping? Errr, not something I've ever done, no sirree Bob :D

[LeonBrooke]

What? Is sir Bob here!? Cool, I've always wanted to meet him :D

[stevie_gerrard]

ive always wanted to meet Sir Freddie Flintoff ;) :p :

[Rollo]

Are you sure it's not a case of not remembering the party instead, I did that a lot when I was younger :\

I was playing cricket in the afternoon; came back late in the afternoon because of the rain which delayed play. I'd then spent the majority of the evening watching a film on telly when I arrived at the conclusion that none of my friends were doing anything.

Nope I'm afraid that the undead drunken zombies in my house were people that I didn't know. I found out that the party arrived here at 3:30am and never left.

When I fall asleep, wild horses could run through - or in this case, parties can happen - and I'll still have no idea that they've been... save for the evidence.

[CarlMetro]

NEw one on me, I've never had a party for people I didn't know ;)

[Rollo]

I've never had a party for people I didn't know ;)
Oh I don't know. David Cameron seems to be doing a pretty successful job of it :D

[LeonBrooke]

NEw one on me, I've never had a party for people I didn't know ;)

I've been at parties like that, but I've always known the hosts ;)

[CarlMetro]

Anyway, enough of tall this party talk, it's a new week and the LW is back where it belongs :D

[fly_ac]

........with me I surpose. :cheese:

[CarlMetro]

Erm...........nope ;)

[djarumdudley]

indeed you're correct!

[CarlMetro]

Of course I am :rolleyes: How many more times do I have to tell you that I'm never wrong ;)

[fly_ac]

wrong! :D

[CarlMetro]

Yes, you are ;)

[djarumdudley]

no, it really is you!

[fly_ac]

I know I was wrong, I thought you had the LW, but I was wrong. :D

[djarumdudley]

it's good to know your comfortable in your wrongness.

[CarlMetro]

Why change the habit of a lifetime ;)

[fly_ac]

Change is good, like the LW. :)

[CarlMetro]

Change can cause more problems than it's worth, you're better sticking with what you're good at ;)

[fly_ac]

Keeping the LW company. :D

[CarlMetro]

No, losing it ;)

[djarumdudley]

obviously suited for you!

[fly_ac]

The LW is suited for me. :cheese:

[CarlMetro]

But it doesn't like you :p :

[fly_ac]

Says who? :)

[CarlMetro]

Well the LW did, obviously :rolleyes: You don't think I'd make up something like that do you? :p :

[fly_ac]

The LW told me this would happen. ;)

[Donney]

I guees the LW also told you that it feels much better in my company.

[CarlMetro]

Strange you should say that, but no it didn't :D

[Rollo]

Caddelly-caddelly-hoo-hoo!"

... er... carry on! :D

[fly_ac]

.....er.....Ok! :cheese:

[CarlMetro]

Hmmm........indeed :\

[harvick#1]

wha?

[Donney]

Strange you should say that, but no it didn't :D

Well, it should have.

:p :

[Rollo]

Mustn't grumble now. :D

[Donney]

Good.

[fly_ac]

Thanks

[Donney]

You are welcome.

The LW agrees. :p :

[fly_ac]

So do I. :D

[Donney]

What a coincidence!

[fly_ac]

Not what the LW say. :)

[Donney]

The LW says it's mine.

[DonnieDarco]

That's a fib :D

[Rollo]

Go to gaol. Go directly to gaol. Do not pass GO, do not collect $200

And don't fib neither.

[schmenke]

H'lo everyone :wave:
The LW is now nicely settled with me and no longer desires any further relocations. :D

[DonnieDarco]

Never mind all that, have some of this :D

[schmenke]

What is it? Will it make me feel all "funny"? :erm:

[Donney]

I don't know, don't ask me.

[djarumdudley]

it's great to be reunited with the last word.

[DonnieDarco]

Brief, but great :D

[djarumdudley]

so great it should happen again!

[schmenke]

It has... to me! :D

[Rollo]

If you live in the Bronx then I doubt that the Last Word would want to be around all of that cheering.

[stevie_gerrard]

well i dont so i can have it then :D

[DonnieDarco]

No :D

[CarlMetro]

...........because it's mine :D

[Rollo]

Oh tish pish posh. I pooh-pooh that suggestion. Be gone ye wee scallywag.

Leave it to the the only one of us I suspect with a title... me! For I am the 3rd Earl of Chutney :D

[LeonBrooke]

Oh tish pish posh. I pooh-pooh that suggestion. Be gone ye wee scallywag.

Leave it to the the only one of us I suspect with a title... me! For I am the 3rd Earl of Chutney :D

Yeah, well, by this time next year I'll be RN Leon Brooke, which is... kind of...

[DonnieDarco]

Who are the first two? :D

[CarlMetro]

Nice to see he's keeping up the tradition of all the royals becoming loonies :D

[fly_ac]

Yeah loonies can't have the LW. :cheese:

[CarlMetro]

Which is why you must surrender it and return to your padded cell quietly, or we'll have to use the 'persuader' again :dozey:

[fly_ac]

I'll take the LW with. :disturb:

[CarlMetro]

You can't because from your own admission, loonies can't have the LW, which rules you out :p :

[DonnieDarco]

That would rule all of us out, surely? :D

[CarlMetro]

Speak for yourself :p :

[DonnieDarco]

Oh, you think you're the sane one??? :D

[Donney]

No, I am the sane one that's unquestionable, and the LW is mine a fact which is also out of the question.

[fly_ac]

The first step to recovery is to admit you have a problem. :D

[DonnieDarco]

So you're admitting it? :D

[Donney]

I admit to be the only sane person around here, :p :

[CarlMetro]

Oh, you think you're the sane one??? :D

Of course :D

[fly_ac]

So you're admitting it? :D

Under advicement I we told by the LW to say nothing. :cheese: :disturb:

[CarlMetro]

I we

Which one was it? Schizophrenia common in your family is it? :p :

[DonnieDarco]

You're all away with the fairies :D

[DonnieDarco]

Rollo - I saw this, and thought of you :D

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/broadcasting/a42695/bbc-two-gets-new-on-screen-look.html

[CarlMetro]

Not me, I'm away with the LW :D

[Donney]

No you are not, or at least the LW isn't.

[CarlMetro]

Am too :p :

[fly_ac]

Which one was it? :
A bit of a typo there.......I = me, We = me + LW :p :

Schizophrenia common in your family is it? :p :
Gawd I don't hope so.......what was that.......you talking to me.....errrr no...ohh yes you were.....no the LW......uhhh OK. :disturb:

[Donney]

Eeeerh....

[djarumdudley]

schwa....

[LeonBrooke]

Don't worry, I am a two-thirds-trained health professional, I know how to deal with this...





Uh........

[Rollo]

Rollo - I saw this, and thought of you :D

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/broadcasting/a42695/bbc-two-gets-new-on-screen-look.html

This is going to either sound daft or make me look llike a total anorak...

I already have these :D
Someone leaked these and the BBC One circle idents last November. I knew that they wouldn't be used for a wee bit of time, because a "BBC Policy Document" was considering changing the three boxes logo yet again.

It's good to see the two yet again. This lot is closer in character to the 1997 set when you had the paint pot, the hot steam and the tilted water idents.

And in case you're interested, there's also going to be an additional series of three red circles for BBC One to be released in May, but I've not seen those yet.

[DonnieDarco]

There's a lovely piece of music to one of those BBC1 idents you mentioned, its the one with children running round in a circle on a lovely summer day.

Are you sure the circles will be red though? There's also one of light being reflected off windows in a high rise, forming a circle.

And now I sound like an anorak too :D

[LeonBrooke]

I don't think the LW likes hanging around with people like you :p :

[DonnieDarco]

Oh, that's harsh, that is :D

[LeonBrooke]

The LW wants a young, hip and happening crowd :D I have no idea how old you are, but your discussion certainly isn't young, hip or happening :p :

[harvick#1]

wha?

[LeonBrooke]

Have you seen the Late Show with David Letterman? He sometimes says that to be satirical.

[stevie_gerrard]

no, but i quite like the tonight show with Jay Leno, quite funny :up:

[LeonBrooke]

Letterman soundly defeats Leno without releasing any perspiration :p :

[harvick#1]

hell no, Letterman needs to fix that front gap in his teeth :p :

Leno is way better than David

[MrJan]

Letterman is a poor version of Leno. Even though most of the writing is done by others I always thought Leno's delivery was much better. Plus the stoner he has on the guitar is way better than Paul Schaffer. Also don't like Letterman's political view.

What I do like is having the LW, which is handy because i have it now, until some swine swipes it away.

[harvick#1]

swipe away like this :D

[Rollo]

The LW wants a young, hip and happening crowd :D I have no idea how old you are, but your discussion certainly isn't young, hip or happening :p :

Yound, hip or happening doesn't pull in the ratings does it? The highest rating radio program in the world is Wake Up To Wogan on duffley Radio 2 and not funkified Chris Moyles on zany Radio 1. Wogan is not young, hip or happening and his listeners often complain of yawn, hip replacements and hardihood.
Ok, so I can't remember the days of 247 but I do remember 275 & 285 with fondness.

More of the little 2s can be found here http://www.meldrum.co.uk/mhp/identzone/bbc2/bbc2_animations.html :D

[CarlMetro]

Whilst I find the conversation on BBC indents, the LW is bored sh1tless and has asked me to take it away for a bit of fun :D

[DonnieDarco]

How can anyone prefer that massive chin to Letterman??? That's not right. Letterman is the best :D

[harvick#1]

the chin is better than the big gap :D

[DonnieDarco]

No chance :D Though I do have one problem with Letterman. He will insist on wearing loafers with tassels on, white socks, and his trousers are always a tad too short. Drives me crazy :D

[djarumdudley]

forget'em both, leave the tv off until Conan O'Brien comes on.
