Unless it's in the same sense that the Bay City Rollers were "punk". Were the Bay City Rollers ever classed as punk!?! Where did this occur? The Ramones were decent enough and Blitzkreig Bop is a tune but The New York Dolls they were not. My flabber is somewhat gasted at this point but let me try to explain. 1. I'm intrigued as to why The Ramones are continually referred to as "punk" when in my not at all humble opinion they're about as bubblegum pop as it gets. 2. In an attempt at humour, I compared them to the least "punk" band I could think of. The Bay City Rollers were the first to come to mind. Obviously they aren't punk and neither are The Ramones. But then in an astonishing plot twist, Ziggy explained that The Ramones were heavily influenced by The Bay City Rollers. I'm not sure if that strengthens or weakens my point but... 3. If The Ramones are indeed punk, then The Bay City Rollers could well be punk too. I feel decidedly unsettled right now and am hoping this is all a bad dream.

I was equally confused as to the link to BCR, my flabber is gasted too as my original post indicates, US punk was The Stooges, Television and New York Dolls for me. To be fair though my musical tastes are mod, northern soul and reggae so what do I know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only is that massively irritating, it's also creepy as f**k as well as terribly done. Up there with the Riverdancing dog in terms of abysmal advert CGI 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 Countryfile should be a good show but I don't like it because of the presenters. I can tolerate the wid wifie but that Matt Baker is a cock.

Toby Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 i'm not going through the whole thread to see if it's been mentioned, but every single person ever to appear in a People's Postcode Lottery advert. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I took an irrational dislike to the student lassie sitting across from me on the Aberdeen train today who kept fiddling with her hair. I felt like telling her, out of badness, that she'd missed the grey one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Muriel Spark fucking pisses me off. I'll admit that I don't know a single thing about her and that I have never read any of her books but there is just something about her name that makes me wish I had the opportunity to boot her in the pie... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boot them in the pie and then innocently act like nothing happened, just like the whole Kicking Bishop Brennan Up the Arse thing. By the time she clocked that you must have done it, she'll have no evidence or a clue where you've gone. You're welcome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
