Sounds like a stag party to me. Go and see the Beastie Boys then head off in Taksim for a pepsi. |

I'm not! I'm just wishing Ender was more of dancer so I could go outside.
He dances, but it's a baby dance he does on his back, and I don't want him to have to dance on the floor in beer and puke and make a prat of himself like this fellow James...
Actually, Baba, I'm feeling old because I haven't heard of half of these bands, though I know I'm not too sad to be missing Avril Lavigne. Maternally uncool, that's me.  |

We�ll let you off the hook seeing as you�re repopulating at the moment. I�d rather eat my own right hand than watch Avril Lavigne. |

It will save you tears further down the line. Ender will be a teenager one day.

All those acts are c.untybaws. I've always been a Queen man myself. I'm putting a tribute band together for a tour of Eskisehir.
Glaswegian Rhapsody
Is this the real life, is it the methodone?
Stuck in the Gorbals, two bob fur the telephone?
Open yer wine an' talk wi'a whine like me.
Um Just a weeji, gie us yer Sunny D.
Cos I'll chib yer pal, rip yer Da; slash yer dug, ride yer ma!
Any way the Clyde flows
Disnae really mater tae me......tae me.
Haw Maw, just chibbed some bam,
Buckie bottle tae the heid,
An noo the f*ckin' b*stard's deid!
Haw Maw, Um just oan parole,
An noo I'm headin back tae Barlineeeee....
Haw Maw, ooh oohooh ooh,
Never meant tae steal yer purse,
But if I'm no fu' o' smack this time the morra'.
Carry oot, carry oot!
An we'll go oot oan the batter!
Too late, the bailiff's here,
Sends shivers doon ma spine,
Gubbed 10 jellies just in time.
Goodbye all ma muckers, I've got tae go,
Got tae go and rip some wank fae up the scheme.
Haw Maw, ooh oohooh ooh
I'm a jakey bam, I sometimes think I've never been washed at all.
I see a little silhouetto of a bam,
Adidas! Adidas! Can ye get us a kergo?
Thunderbird, White Lightning, very very frightning to me!
Twenty Mayfair,
Twenty Mayfair,
Twenty Mayfair and some skins,
Magnifico oh oh oh oh!
I'm just a fat boy, nae body loves me,
He's just a fat boy fae a fat family!
Spare us a pound fur a wee cup o tea?
Get tae f*ck, skanky slob, will ye get a job?
For f*cksake, No! I will no' get a job! - Get a job!
Forf*cksake, I will no' get a job! - Get a job!
Forf*cksake, Will you get a job? - Get a job!
Will no' get a job, get a job!
Will no' get a job, get a job! No, no, no, no, no, no,
........ Oh
gonorrhoea! gonorrhoea!
gonorrhoea and the clap!
Then doon the pub, has the barman put aside for me? For me, for meeeee!?
So you 'hink you can slash me and pish in my eye?
So ye 'hink ye can chib me an' leave me to die?
Haw bawbag, can't dae this tae me bawbag!
Just wait till I'm oot, just wait till I'm right oot ma nut!
F*ck all really matters, Any one can see,
F*ck all really matters, f*ck all really matters to me!
Any way the Clyde flows..... |

If he doesn't do that kind of thing as a teenager, then it will mean I haven't done a very good job raising him, and that neither of us are cool.
Actually, I have caught him rolling is his own spit-up a few times-- does that count? |
