I mean, people, they've got a bomb scare, and no-one is talking about it?

Ha, as soon as I posted that they confirmed that it was all a great big fuss over a box of electrical equipment and a rubbish sniffer dog, but still...

jesus ailsa, don't encourage them! next thing the cockfarmers will have ILX full of "MANKY MUST GO!" threads once more.

― DV (dirtyvicar), Friday, 4 July 2003 22:35 (twenty-two years ago)

DV MUST GO!!!

(er, maybe not)

Why don't you switch off your TV and go and do something less boring instead? Then get some TV cameras and handycams to turn whatever it is you do when you don't watch into 'reality TV' which you don't watch.

Ha ha. Momus must definitely go.

I would watch a reality TV show in which you sat indoors on a rainy day and made things from the Why Don't You annual, Nick.

momus- I'll improve myself by going to a fucking art gallery.

(this may not be true)

bomb scare = apollo 13 of BB. oh god no one's watching any more let's have something EXCITING!!

Is the 'scare' part of the bomb scare story the prospect of the bomb failing to detonate?

when everyone stops watching= i might just watch it.

what's a cockfarmer?

― Chris Radford (Chris Radford), Saturday, 5 July 2003 08:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Chris: Cockfarmer = wanker, blowhard, self-promoter, attention junkie, talker of mountains and doer of molehills, doer of lunch, person tragically under-rated in own eyes but horribly over-rated in all others'.

For a detailed discussion refer this thread:

"This is the thread where you call somebody random a cockfarmer in the knowledge that sooner or later they will Google their name and find it."

― Fred Nerk (Fred Nerk), Saturday, 5 July 2003 09:13 (twenty-two years ago)

This is an experiment. If it works, Chris and anybody else should be able to link into the thread I mentioned in my last post:

This is the thread where you call somebody random a cockfarmer in the knowledge that sooner or later they will Google their name and find it.

gotcha

incidentally, isn't Jade Yourell one of last year's Big Brother contestants? She is appearing in a production of The Importance Of Being Earnest here in Dublin, directed by Alan Stanford himself.

I really like Momus' idea.

Next time I want to make a link to another thread, how do I alter the text in the link from the whole thread title (like above) to something else?

― Fred Nerk (Fred Nerk), Saturday, 5 July 2003 10:53 (twenty-two years ago)

oh bum. a terrorist plot to blow up the big brother house would have made my weekend

― j0e (j0e), Saturday, 5 July 2003 11:51 (twenty-two years ago)

is that true about jade
is it the same one?

― robin (robin), Saturday, 5 July 2003 12:40 (twenty-two years ago)

She was Jade Goody, but I don't know if she has married or something.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 5 July 2003 12:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Her boyfriend (and father of Spawn of Jade) is called Jeff Brazier, so I doubt it's the same person.

― ailsa (ailsa), Saturday, 5 July 2003 14:39 (twenty-two years ago)

biggest giveaway we're not talking about Jade Goody here

― stevem (blueski), Saturday, 5 July 2003 14:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Worst Big Brother ever again.

― Cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 5 July 2003 14:46 (twenty-two years ago)

It is kind of hard to imagine what role Jade Goody would find in that play, yes. "A handbag?! Wossat?"

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 5 July 2003 15:03 (twenty-two years ago)

mmmm, I think I am foolishly assuming that all people in the world called Jade are the same person. Jade Yourell is some Irish actress. I probably saw her in something and the name stuck in my mind.

I am very glad that I don't actually know the name of anyone from the last three years of Big Brother.

i used to know but then i forgot
