I don't understand the attractionSmaug says: Ricky Gervais. Lesbian pr0n. Going into a crowded bar, purely because it's crowded. All these things seem to be popular with everybody else, but I just can't work out why. What leaves you cold just as much as it turns everyone else on?

God I love this week's questionI cannot even be bothered to explain in detail why the Beatles do absolutely nothing whatsoever for me - and they fucking well should, as late 60s music of a psychedelic hue is something of a pet subject of mine. So many people did what they did so much better, before and after they did that apart from popularising the genre they brought precisely fuck all to it. Listen to Defecting Grey by the frankly incredible Pretty Things - to my mind (and many others) the finest psychedelic single of the day, to hear just how much better it could be done. Sgt Pepper is at best a mediocre distillation of the real underground scene of the time, given a 'pop' makeover.
People who think that phase of the Beatles epitomises psychedelia are the equivalent to those tossers who think The Happy Mondays captured the nascent rave scene of the late 80s.
Imbeciles who need a PUNCH IN THE FACE.
