Mallett’s Mallet est un jeu d’association de mots il ne faut ni faire de pause, ni hésiter, ni répéter un mot, ni en dire un qui ne me plaît pas. Sinon, vous recevez un coup sur la tête, comme ça BONK ou comme ça BONK. Maintenant, regardez-vous et faites BLEURGH.

Realised I'd fallen off what the Oh Sees were up to for several years and lo and behold what they were up to was four albums full of absolute hoofers that I now get to enjoy.
There's a nail bar near me called Misa Nails and I can't ever see it without thinking of Jar Jar Binks giving it large down the boxing club.
Watched and liked Man On The Run, especially the actual footage of Japanese customs pulling Macca's cartoonishly massive bag of weed out of his suitcase.
Saw this linked to on another forum earlier and haven't been able to get it out of my head since. French TV had its own theme to Starsky and Hutch and it's a right sticky so and so. STARSKYYYYY ET HUTCH! STARSKYYYYY ET HUTCH!

Loved the giddy fuck out of this song anyway, "He pours a drink and listens to his body thaw" is a pin point perfect lyric about alcoholism for crying out loud. Have always loved JDB's voice since hearing Stay Beautiful on mid afternoon Radio 1. So yeah, this is a happy discovery.

One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in my life (and I discovered it on an album that was sent in the post to my old workplace to someone who'd left the company and they said they didn't want it) The 'But know everything lost will be recovered' bit always hits me hard.

You know when you walk past some animal shit on the street and all the flies suddenly depart it at once? I want to tell them that it's alright, you lot fill your boots, I'm actually not interested in the animal shit and even if I was you were all there first.
On a colossal Beatles kick this year. Just rewatched the 1964 Maysles Brothers doc and the best bit is when Ringo starts dancing in the club with those incomparably cool New Yorkers who are all formation doing the hitchhike and whatnot and he's just flopping all over the place much like I would.
I heard he's opening with this one, ever the contrarian! #neilyoung #glastonbury #mightaswelllgetsomemoremileageoutofthis soundcloud.com/ross-patrick...

Speaking to my dad today about the local gang you definitely didn't want to mess with in his boyhood in the 60s who were called.....wait for it.....The Whizz Bangs. Apparently nasty pieces of work but that's not a name that strikes terror into your heart, is it?
Of course you know who he could easily ask for help with scurvy don't you? HOWARD DONALD!! No. Fucked that up, sorry. Of course you know who he could easily ask for help with scurvy don't you? MARK LIME!!

Regret not buying that market stall t-shirt I saw a few years back that had Peter Dinklage as Tyrion Lannister on it with a bifter badly superimposed near his mouth and GAME OF WEED, not even in the font.
Great how well served the early Manics are by YouTube, a ton of obscure early 90s European TV performances like this you can wade through should you care to.

Any other insomniacs often plagued by stupid looping combinations of two different songs? Oh, would you like to swing on a star? Carry moonbeams home in a jar And be better off than you are? (WHHHHUUUUUUP!) One foot in the grave!
DID YOU KNOW that there's a church in Mexico where they worship No Jacket Required era Phil Collins and have a big animatronic statue of him dancing about slowly in his pants to 'One More Night'.
Has there ever been an album cover that better captures that feeling when you're in a park and have a sudden need to do a shite but you can see from where you're standing that there's a padlock on the door of the toilets?
i got stung by a radioactive bee i can't fly or make honey, but my knees look fucking spectacular
The amount of people who must have driven past The Love Shack because there was a sign outside that said STAY AWAY, FOOLS!
Do you think Barry White was alright with the nickname The Walrus Of Love? Cheeky bastards.
Thrown off the Vengabus for passing a solid in the chemical toilet. No way I could have waited til San Francisco.

Elon: “Heil Hitler” the press: “hmmm I wonder what he means by this”
Future plan:- entering a marathon but doing it in character as Roy Jay so it takes forever because I'll keep having to jump back to say either "Spook!" or "Slither!" and will periodically have to turn to the watching crowds to inform them that they will all be doing this tomorrow.
Just remembered that The Muppet Show theme song contains the line “it’s time to put on makeup” and it makes me wonder what they look like without it, maybe they look normal
