# we've had literal band names
and that was PAINFUL
there's too much music out there for a compo like that

# image amuses me
especially considering my sig

but when you have no idea what the song is, never mind the lyric, it can get bastard tedious. and certainly loses any comedy after about 1/2 an hour

# Just imagine the imagery from "I am the walrus"
It really could be a good challenge.

# yes, but the majority of the lyrics will be from
'fronds of the neverhorn' by the discomanians on calypso records and all that shit that most of us have never even heard of

'COS THAT WAS A MASTERPIECE. GUNTER GESTUMPENSSON SLIT HIS WRISTS AFTER WRITING THAT SONG.

# Oh lordy I hate it when people leave it to you to "guess"
The board moves fast enough without having to spend 10 minutes trying to fathom out one fecking post. Most of us here wouldn't have the patience.
Then it turns out to be what you mentioned because people think they are so fecking cool knowing track number 7 by some obscure Indie band that recorded it in the mountains of far flung Japan and anyone else who doesn't know it is an uncool div.

# But the sad thing is that is IS a good suggestion
and it would be a shame to shun it because of the inevitable.
Almost every single challenge suggestion brings out the usual entries from people who read the challenge, pick ONE word and then post something that is often the complete opposite of what the challenge is about.
I think it's getting impossible to avoid that.

# You've proved my point!
Although I do see Micto's and Mongy's too.
The trouble is, Mr Toast, you are one of the few who actually READ the challenge in its entirety before posting.

But on another note, I would like to shop some custard dripping from a dead dog's eye followed by a girl with her knickers down, an eggman, and a joker laughing at him.

# I didn't
I'm with flowerpot on this one. The board moves to fast to be figuring out riddles continuously.

Edit: Never mind, just got it from his comment below and the filename. I initially discounted the filename cause there's someone called [the filename] on another forum I frequent and it just didn't register. (I would never have got it on my own though).

# Oh yes
HMHB.
Use acronyms to make those who don't know scratch their heads even more.
Is it REALLY too much to type "Half Man Half Biscuit"?
Am I REALLY a div for not getting the song?

If you are using irony, then forgive me but if not *blows raspberry*
