And if you squint really hard, even for one second, that will read as
"Chompy will get you hard."

No, that's just you, you massive bumderist
I saw The Importance of Being Earnest on Saturday, the way Algie said "Bunburyist" sounded suspiciously Bumd-like. I giggled, especially when he asked for his Bunbury suit and said he was going Bunburying.

I was really disappointed by that entire play
When I heard the title, I laughed at the puerile idea that the play was all about a man's need to be called "Ernest." But of course, I thought, Oscar Wilde would have been far wittier and clever than that.

Except, of course, I was mistaken. Wilde simply wrote a play about the same crap joke that I thought of when I first heard the title. Was it wrong of me to expect better from one of the 19th Century's most revered playwrights?

Good work on the Bumder-spotting though. It is important to remain vigilant in these Bumder-riddled times. Especially when the Bunburyist/Bumderist in question is a BUMDER in real life! Here we find ourselves, wallowing bumderishly in the depths of Brwoken Bumder Brwitain...

It's odd, there are quite a few oft-quoted moments
like "the truth is rarely pure and never simple". I enjoyed it, but I'm simple.

Fookin' Irish. Them and their bum-pounding ways...

Oh, I remember finding it funny.
I just felt a bit let down when I realised that this famously renowned wit had based the punchline on the same crap pun that I had previously assumed would have been beneath him.

...and didn't you say you were half-Irish? *protects posterior*

You have the same floppy hair.
Maybe you're the most celebrated of bumders in a new body. With an Australian accent.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I must assume my jewblood, though less, overcomes the desire to be bend over and pounded in the arse, and instead drives me to hoard gold.

Oi! Less about the Aussie accent
Only 3 people have made that mistake, though admittedly one of them was Australian...I'm a well-spoken Englishman, thank you very much.
*sighs*
...just as Oscar probably was...

Good point, although I think the practice you describe sounds less like the work of the bumder than the bumdee.

Oscar was not an Englishman!
You need a refresher course in Know Your Bumder: Pioneers of The Technique. Possibly brush up on KYB: Concealment of Bumderism for Stealth Attacks, you're slighlty lacking in refinement.

Ok, bend someone over and pound them in the arse. Sheesh, let's get technical.

Ah. So he wasn't. (Though that does make me wonder whether there's some Irish in my family after all...) I must admit, as a self-taught Bumder, my knowledge of past masters of the dark arse is somewhat lacking. I am something of an untutored, graceless bumder, almost feral in my approach as I roam the streets guided only by instinct and a fervent desire to plough the unsuspecting once I have them spread akimbo over a bollard or small wall, my gland of hope of glory throbbing like a run-down Vauxhall as I plunge it through their tense, sweating tradesman's entrance.

No Irish in you, eh? Would you like some?
I suggest you go on the government training program Bumming and You: A Practical Guide to Plowing Arses in Broken Britain. Have a pamphlet in the meantime.

Isn't "well-spoken Englishman" a euphemism for something?

My friend and I discussed opening a coffee/book shop one day
I wanted to call it Starbooks, she wants to call it The Importance of Brewing Earnest
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Tue 15 Jun 2010, 14:31, Reply)

Oh I had an excellent shop name at some point
Can't remember that. I prefer Starbooks :P
