You haven taken the bags of taytos, taken the fucking mars bars, taken the Christmas sweets, shrank the money itself and you've even taken the fucking beer and all ye shrinking bastards.... but not the fucking blims.. not the blims.. have you no fucking humanity at all!? Damn you, damn you all to hell!!!!

Is it the euro finally catching up on the punt? Remember a quarter was more or less £25 before the euro, then €25 after? Grand job altogether it was!  :laugh:

Hey look, some joker is after taking 3 grams from a garda station...

Well it was nearly 3 grams, there was a few joints already gone off it

Boxers that climb up your asshole and refuse to leave.

You're the landlord: serve them an evacuation order.

Ye wear boxers lads?

Not if I'm wearing my traditional Celbridge grass skirt, sandals and socks ensemble obviously, but if I'm blending in to polite society I'll keep the liathróidí safely tucked away.

The boxers don't even cup em the way they need to be cupped though, so what's the point? Unless you had a dirty pipe or something like that. Then maybe the double layer might protect the rest of the world from whatever is emanating from the dirty little pipe of the protagonist

Boxers only. Let the valuables dangle comfortably but in place.

I am well and truly baffled.

I picked up two Graveland reissues in the past few weeks. Both of them had dust jackets that were so tight it made it nearly impossible to liberate the records. Times must be tight for the far right.

So was I.

What's the first track on Ride The Lightning called again? Don't you wear jeans? Why is a double layer called for?

On a similar note, I have rakes of cds with that little slipcase thing inside the sort of digipak case and they are welded into them. Not hip enough for vinyl in my gaff but nearly hip enough to know what you mean

Yeah that's a pain in the hoop. The cardboard sleeve inevitably gets destroyed.

You'd think it would become apparent during the test pressings.

Actually that has tangentially reminded me of another peeve

CD rot

The fuckin plastic bags in the cracks of the light side of a blim ahh precious memories.  Remember the time we split a half of soap and it was such tremendously bad stuff we had a bucket every 15 minutes until we got a pain in the head and had to stop sessioning?  If I remember we were recording this masterpiece at the same time.  A song off that album at least but that's the only one I can find.  The worst smoke I ever had, ever, anyway.

Then about two weeks later I turned up with a bag of green so strong nobody would believe me until they smoked it, and it sent everyone into another realm it was so hard going.  One bucket of it made you feel like you were going insane, gave everything that lovely stark outline like the first time you ever got wrecked, thought pattern absolutely gone out the window, mental mental shit.  Became known as "that stuff" and was only around for about a month.  Only last year when in Amsterdam did I realise it was just very potent Sativa, after having a similar experience and needing to go lie down in the dark for an hour to get my shit together enough for a dinner.

What are you calling a "bucket"? A full bowl in a bong?
