    STROBEYYYYYYYYYYY

    Sup j-dog, and here is me stockpiling right arms and mermaid tails....

    Damn you Irish Business Post! (that's a thing, right?)


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    You see strobey. Your lightning deletes always catch me off guard. Once before I posted S-club 7 and was utterly embarrassed because the context and meaning was lost. This time around I spent the last half hour thinking up what tune to post here, only to think of it, go to youtube find the link and see that, yet again, you've deleted your post.

    So, anyway, I'm putting the tune here because the title is appropriate and the tune itself should cheer your up a bit. It does to me anyway. But then if you just severed your arm, then I'm not sure what can cheer your up. I know HeWhoMustNotBeNamed gave a Worm guy a silver arm, but I'm afraid I don't have such skills. I do however possess the ability to regrow unicorn horns so if you won't mind sending that unicorn you dehorned my way I'll be happy to recompliment it with an extra horn.
    Thanks very much in advance,

    Anyways dude you're awesome and cool and don't let anyone else tell your otherwise.


    Also, to the grammer nazi's out there I apologise for the inventions of perfectly cromulent words.

    Jesus H Christ man, that is the best fcuking song in the world, there's a few variations of it though & the differences are subtle but it's totally worth listening to 6 different versions to find the one that speaks to you. Ahh christmas... (??^&^%^£%£$^"£)


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    Two years, & the motivation for about half of my posts in this thread, ended on Monday - where oh where does one decipher the inspiration to go on from :confused:

    :eek:
    That can't be a coincidence?
    It can't . .. .
    :(

    I don't think it's my favourite version either. But it's the name used for this particular one and Strobey's post that made it such a fecking awesome choice. All that time spent reflecting. . .
    *Wanders off muttering something about trippsy strobsy deleting hissz posts.*

    This dude has the best f**king job in the world.


    Someday, I'm going to meet a space cat. Someday . . .

    Goo! Goo! Goo everywhere! And it's adorable. Grey balls, white balls, skeleton balls, green balls, pink balls, cyber balls, ballooon balls, sticky bomb balls, cacti balls. Oh how adorable. I hate it when they die, I hate it when I have to leave them behind. I hate it how sometimes I sacrifice a precious ball for the greater good. (Or evil! I honestly can't tell, but the game sets a goal and I must complete it.)

    Spent the last hour or so trying to build a bridge across a chasm to light a fuse and then I smacked myself on the head when I realised I was going to need two separate fused. Built the second bridge in about two minutes and lit the fuse.
    Boom!
    Gooballs all over the place! But oh what a pretty sight. But boy! What a fecking soundtrack.

    Sponsored, dude you need to give this a try. Strobey you too. Heck all of yez do!
    And what a name for tune eh? But seriously try the game on your PC, Wii, Android or i-Thingy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    STROBEYyyyyyyyyy!
    Strabby????

    No way we're letting this thread even get a hiatus. Ever had a notion of what it is like to breathe free? Ahh that air is so pure (I don't honestly know what this means.:o) and fresh. Still not perfect, bit stingy but it it feels great! !!




    Oh yeah philosophical bit?
    Do try hard.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,371 ✭✭✭Obliq


    Don't be lonely :D I can't write, but I'll dance and sing a little tune for you.....



    You will have to imagine the singing and dancing, but nonetheless, that's what I'm doing.

    "The name "Alt-J" is an allusion to the Greek uppercase letter delta (∆) which can be typed on Apple Mac OS X by the key sequence alt (option) + J. Coincidently the Alt + J function on a PC opens the Windows Media Player."

    I think this is the nerdiest band name ever. I approve thoroughly. :cool:

    Hmmm, never actually watched the video before. Way to go spoiling the beauty of the Paris Pantheon with a bunch of gyrating women :confused: Or maybe that's just me?!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,872 ✭✭✭strobe


    Hey yo Jernal, sorry to leave you hanging man. My insomnia has taken a serious beating back into recession lately due to a certain someone, but I'm back not sleeping again tonight, and so the story goes...

    I see Jakkass AKA Philologos AKA Christian Batman AKA Mohhamed El Nihad Nufemaria III closed his account???
    Bad dice, Jakkass was cool enough.

    What other song could it possibly be... this goes out to you man, where ever you be... hope things work out for you, however they go.


    Edit: now with added subtitulos... app...apparently.
    (God damn it's unexpectedly hard to find a satisfactory SOYCD video on youtube. Spaniards to the rescue, for some inexplicable reason... )


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    STROBYER
    EYEEEeeeeeeeee

    Here be the hug.
    There be the dragon we slayed in your honour.
    There be the dragon's daugther coming to slay us all.
    There goes the hero to save us preoccupied by his iPad. (I'm sure he'll save us when he's finished demolishing the Pigs fortress.)
    Here be purple monkey dishwater trying to make sense of this all.
    Here be the song that is keeping with the thread.

    ...
    Oh right yeah, copy and paste
    Here be the internal monologue.
    you-tube dot com.


    Oh and there in that desert is strabogolis studying something important sciency with some math and elegance - and beauty. Though right now he's probably pulling hair out of his head. Either way, strabby and strobey I bid thee well

    As for the dragon's daughter she's still coming . . .

    I doubt you could be against everyone. You of all people should know by now that nothing is ever that black and white.
    I take it you think some of the posts here have been too judgemental and lacking in empathy? Or something else? Either way, please elaborate on your post.

    Also, please post in the irreligious thread it gets lonely in there at times. frown.png

    On my part it's been lonely because I've been dealing with lovelessness, homelessness & exams (in that order, if the erudite Victorian must know), but a song like this:



    makes it all worthwhile [no matter how stingingly it resonates with the first of the reasons, no mater how fcuking bad it stings Moriarty...]...

    The rest of them though, shure they only have themselves to blame (& we can heap it upon them, even if I may have changed a left-handed childs life tonight).


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,038 ✭✭✭sponsoredwalk


    Alright, no hiatus:



    What a doc, definitely one deserving of commemoration in the soul-repository that is this thread :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,872 ✭✭✭strobe


    So, good morrow, this is a song what I do like that is being played on the radiograph presently.

    :D

    Edit: Also, Atheism and stuff.

    Edit 2: Someone please please please tell me they think Beck sounds just a little bit like what Ozzy Osbourne sounds like with singing and things? Yes? No? That kind of almost auto tuned way of singing, yes?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,038 ✭✭✭sponsoredwalk


    Man that's some song, it's pure Beck to me but I only know a little Ozzy.

    My song at the moment



    Ooh kichie kichie kichie

    StrobyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyS and Strabyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy where are you guys gone? You honestly think this thread can be let die!!!?:mad:

    Strabogolis where you may be, I hope with all the sincerity of other people's heart that you a keeping well. Strobey you should be in a cesspit. Keeping well of course, but in a cesspit nonetheless.

    So, where does one begin? This is March the first month of Spring. Course, when we buggers went to school we thought it was the second month of spring. Such a useless thing to teach people too as it had no reflection on Ireland's climate. Bleh, l hope they've correct that error. Speaking of Climate. CLimate science is fricking class! The stuff people have figured out about our climates, deep in the earth's history and the other planets and the other stuff that came about. Cool. Amazing science. Science is cool. Tedious to do no doubt but cool when viewed from that outside perspective that collates all the data and produces the complete approximation. A sequence of approximations to the truth. It's a great big universe and it began right here! And here and over there and now we have the first strong inkling of evidence towards eternal inflation models. How freaking awesome is that? Course we have to doubt all the results and models but that we can peer back to those billionth's of second when time began. That on a sheet of paper I can produce my own crude approximation of a universe, Dust world Terry pratchett would have been proud. I really ought to read one of his books sometime. ANyway, this paragraph is long, I hope it's epic enough for the bump this thread deserves,

    Yiz all better be keeping well and awesome and all that stuff. Strabby kicking ass in his exams.

    Now, um, music.
    May the odds forever be in our favour.

    I need to be dropped by helicopter on a mountain top in Nordland, naked, with nothing but a flamethrower, an axe, a pack of Viagra, and this blazing out all over.



  • Registered Users Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    An axe plus Viagra usually equals extreme sadistic torture.

    Well its Viagra or Deep Heat, and the Deep Heat is definitely extreme sadistic torture...

    Yes, definitely. Updates as you get em please...



    is it ok if I lurk here? oh, music....yes

    Something for the Nordic mood so. And I've been planning sculptures - there's a feeling eating at me like I'm about to expand in a rather explosive fashion, as if from a singularity and I'm fierce afraid of what I'll unleash upon myself again......it's basis is a mash up of those immortal remains of saints (re imagined and reconstructed in German speaking Europe during the Protestant Reformation by [for example] the nuns of Ennetach, who stunningly decorated the holy ribcage of St Felix), the veneration of homogeneity, and my aunt's recent mastectomy. I haven't done a sculpture in 16 years. Wish me luck.

    Alright dude, doing pretty well thanks, hope you're well yourself - 3 issues in #225 reversed their ever-prominent order of importance & in celebration of such victories, well, one could literally do nothing but throw oneself into all 10 Landau's [read the reviews to all volumes to get a sense of the poetry inherent in a slab of tar - volume 2 gives the theory behind gravitational waves ;)] along with the original frickingamazeballs Lagrange's, Fourier's, Laplace's, Maxwell's, Gibb's, Poincare's & Dirac's, dipping each into home-made strawberry daquiri's while whipping guitars with belts. Find me a better climate change book than this ideological tripe please :D

    Mmm I can only hope your return to sculpting is on a par with the feeling certain people get when they pick up their first metronome ("get yourself a metronome"), and yes Heartbeats makes my heart beat :cool:



    (Seen these guys on Friday night - only 20 people went, a massive massive injustice)

    I'm happy to hear The Animators - very good. Last I heard of Dublin rap/breakbeat was Collie, and tho hilarious, did not tune to my heart at all. I'm pretty sure my next sculptures will dance to this song next though...



    The Knife are for sure the beat behind my sense of dread, but Anthony....oh Anthony... is it's voice. Although he didn't write that one. Still...As a child I knew, that the stars could only get brighter...


    All of Anthony and The Johnson's songs are NSFW due to emotional triggering. Use with care and consideration.

    That's been overplayed in my house. Infected Mushroom is ruined for me due to my teenager's obsessive use of it as full-volume housework music. Great though :)
