Seriously, Ducky, lighten up.
Ian Dury was great: I miss him.
Vipros doesn't get him: And?
You shouldn't have called Vipros witless though. Cunt, perhaps, but not witless.
And probably best to get to know who's who before you call anyone a cunt.

I am a cunt
not witless though, thanks

you are right, I don't get the appeal of Dury and the Blockheads. Don't mind if others do though. not like U2, those shitheaps. I bet Cave Duck likes U2.

Thanks for the advice, but you misunderstand.
I didn't start the thread as an exercise in "I'll show you" The mention of him earlier just started me thinking about his lyrics. Which I think are full of earhty wit and wisdom. If someone had mentioned Elvis Costello (in either a positive or negative way) it would probably have been him that had been the subject of this thread.

I'm slightly surprised that ppeople assume they know your thought process and immediately label anything quoted from a song as emo. In this case that seems as appropriate as labelling me a miserable bastard if I started a "What's your favourite Tim Vine joke?" thread.

Also, I didn't actually call anyone witless. I quoted a maxim which is something I've quoted to friends before.

I think you misunderstand
I don't think anyone actually thought you were being emo.

and for the sake of argument you did pretty much call me witless.

Ah, so.
It was unfortunate that your comment popped up just under Vipros' saying Ian dury was shite.
If you'd offered him a good bumming by way of remedy all would have been settled. And life would be duller.
And we are all really, really sorry your life sucks.

Do you have a little buzzer on your computer that goes off everytime someone mentions breasts?

So, when you were quoting someone something, you wern't calling them that thing you were quoting?

It's a general guideline.
I review its relevence on a case by case basis
