Beefy's Corner - The Off-Topic Chat Thread

So then... what do people make of this? Supposedly 'the Gangnam Style of 2013'...?

That's from weeks back DTLW! It's certainly irritating as hell. Their song Stonehenge is very funny though.

 

I only became aware of it last week, when it entered the charts. Up three places this week, apparently.

 

My team won on pens in the cup. They had a player sent off for a dangerous foul, he then got up and smacked my mate. He's been banned for 6 matches. He was a complete twat.

 

I've seen lots of people asking what does the fox say. Didn't know what that was all about until now. It's pretty horrific. I hate it.

 

German TV presenter and journalist Raphael Honigstein kicked off of BT Sport for doing '****er' gesture whilst live on air.

BT just offered an apology and said that they didn't realise the camera rolling and it should not be tolerated.

 

I've only just got in from an afternoon at my friends' first grand child's naming ceremony followed by the pub. I would have been well up for such a game TSS if you ever want to revive it.

What the hell, how about: "Just before our love got lost you said, I am as constant as a northern star."

 

Ginola will be next then.

 

One of my favourite Joni Mitchell compositions. Heck, one of my favourite songs. She sings it beautifully.

Was it in answer to my original line..?

 

Ah, I do love Joni Mitchell.

 

Let's not deprive people of Chilo's line any longer:

BTW, IIRC the lead instrument is a zither. How about that for rock..?

EDIT: Wrong, it was a dulcimer. Did you know that..?

 

Yes, that's right, a dulcimer TSS. And yes, it was in reply to your original line, it seemed to fit in my inebriated brain. And Joni Mitchell touches parts you didn't even know you had.

 

Anyone heard Lazio want Ramirez?

 

Indeed she does. She unfailingly makes my eyes water when she sings songs like Case Of You.

 

My favourite is Blue (the song, not the album, though the album is amazing). It was the first of her songs I heard, and it's stuck with me.

 

Any of you watch By Any Means?

 

Yep, a thoroughly enjoyable programme. Charley Boorman can be an excellent presenter, and motorbikes are included.

 

I just watched 'Karl Pilkington - The Moaning of Life' - that was superb.

 

Have that on record, is it better then the Idiot Abroad series?

 

I thought it was miles better than the last series of Idiot Abroad. That said, I didn't think the last one was that good in comparison to previous ones.

The opening episode of this series was really good.

Idea seems to be to look at several aspects of society and how different areas approach them. This week was marriage in India and the USA.
