they're a funny colour arent they?

although i thought they were green. at least the ones i saw when i was hanging out in ARGENTINA where they all eat corned beef, and speak a funny language.

The chief of cambridgeshite police has spoken about the recent increase in martian numbers in the county and the impact this has had upon the farce. The message however couldn't be heard as the martians interfered with her walky-talky.

Jeez Nevs - could that post be any bigger?!
nevski
i don't think it could, no. i could try though if you want?
damon
this whole thread amonted to nothing, I would have tought.
That S.L kicked in with an opinion, is I thought, marginal.
nevski
i suppose i could keep adding pointless additional posts to make it appear more popular, couldn't i Damon.

thats the way it works isn't it?

this is me sitting with martians when i visited bulgaria in '47. back when i was traveling round the world only using the power of my arse.

Ah..........just bummin' around then ?

very good. however aquaman, you seem to have missed the thrust of my point.

Nevski, you shouldn't keep this ability to harness the power of your behind to yourself - there might be a Nobel Prize for science in it for you!

I would certainly hope so.

Is there life on Mars?
nevski
yes there is life on mars Tanya.


oh and the one in the middle isn't racist or sexist, hes just misunderstood

but i would definately let the bird on the right chomp me down a bit.

i forgot to mention that when i went to mars, using the power of my own arse, obviously, i took this picture.

in the macdonalds pictured, all the red martians worked there, but only green martians ate there. i put this poor dietry choice down to the fact that they just haven't evolved enough yet.

i asked a red one why no green ones ate there, he looked at me a bit funny (despite me not looking like a tourist at all) and said:

Nevs, you really shouldn't keep this incredible power to yourself. You could make millions selling the technique. Although, come to think of it, it's not exactly CO2-neutral, is it? But isn't environmentalism just something for the yuppie middle class so they can feel better about themselves anyway? I don't know, but that's what I've read.
nevski
where did you read that?!

i've never seen that in the daily mail
nevski
QUOTE
A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar,
'Twas light years of time since his mission did start,
And over a village he halted his craft,
And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star...

He followed a light and came down to a shed,
Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed,
A bright light of silver shone round his head,
And he had the face of an angle, and they were afraid...

Then the stranger spoke, he said "Do not fear,
I come from a planet a long way from here,
And I bring a message for mankind to hear,"
And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air...

And it went La La...
Peace and goodwill to all men, and love for the child...

This lovely music went trembling through the ground,
And many were wakened on hearing that sound,
And travellers on the road, the village they found,
By the light of that ship in the sky, which shone all round...

And just before dawn at the paling of the sky,
The stranger returned and said "Now I must fly,
When two thousand years of your time has gone by,
This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry..."

And it went La La ... This song will begin once again
To a baby's cry...
And it goes La La... Peace and goodwill to all men, and
Love for the child...
Oh the whole world is waiting, waiting to hear the song again,
There are thousands standing on the edge of the world,
And a star is moving somewhere, the time is nearly here,
This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry...



i think this says it all really.

chris de burgh may be ridiculed for his monobrow, but fucking hell he was a genoius songwriter. thats what i think because the independant told me to... so ner de ner de ner ner.

Their military strength far surpasses ours. They land on our planet and simply start destroying. Finally, despite their obvious technological superiority, they never make an attempt to communicate with us.


and i bet they vote muslim.

be afraid. be very afraid.

Another jenious set of lyrics

QUOTE

Spaceman I always wanted you to go
Into space, man
Inter-galactic crimes
Spaceman I always wanted you to go
Into space, man
Inter-galactic crimes

Pungent smells
They consumate my home
Beyond the black horizon
Trying to take control
See my girl
She shivers in her bones
The sun in zenith rising
Trying to take us all

There's a fire between us
So where is your god
There's a fire between us
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off this world

The sickening taste of the morbid jokes
Images of fascist boats
Beam me up 'cos I can't win

Spaceman
I always wanted you to go into space, man

Its time to terminate the great white world
Morbid fascinations
Television takes control
Decimation
Different races fall
Electronic information tampers with your soul

There's a fire between us
So where is your god
There's a fire between us
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't get off the carousel
I can't fall off this world

The sickening taste of the morbid jokes
Images of fascist boats
Beam me up 'cos I can't win

Spaceman
I always wanted you to go into space, man

Babylon Zoo, Babylon Zoo, Babylon Zoo
Babylon Zoo, Babylon Zoo, Babylon Zoo

Spaceman
I always wanted you to go into space, man

Inter-galactic crimes

Spaceman
I always wanted you to go into space, man

Inter-galactic crimes

Spaceman, spaceman, spaceman, spaceman
Spaceman, spaceman, spaceman, spaceman
Spaceman

''All coppers are bastards,'' we used to sing at Palace back in the 70's.
A lot of them were.

And at Spunkbridge Uni, things never change.

Did you get a first?

laugh.gif I left my self wide open for that one.
I never went to uni myself. But I belive Spunkbridge is where our friend Student Grant went.
Didn't he excel himself yesterday? biggrin.gif
nevski
oh look, damon has made a new nickname for me.

genious.
damon
But you know it's only in jest, don't you?
Just like I took your reply to my PM several months ago wink.gif .

Maybe an image of SG could become your next avatar.
(Like I have taken Leontien's ''bucket of snot'' accusation, and embraced it.)

Anyway, sorry for interupting.
Now back to this unfolding current affairs story.
nevski
hey great! we can sufggest avatars for each other!

here's one for you!

enjoy.

and the PM you mention? is it this one?

QUOTE
why are you pm'ing me?

like i give a fuck about your family, who they chose to marry, or how you 'feel' about them?

i have fourteen siblings 1 of them married a chinaman, 3 married welsh, 4 are gay, 2 are vegetarian, one thinks 'aliens came and fucked the monkey', 1 eats afro carribean cuisine, one prefers a nice thai curry and the other 9 prefer quavers to hula hoops.
damon
Yes, that looks like it.
