(9:37 am, 9/12/01)Did you have a good time? What else went on? Favourite moments? Sorry if my 5:30 exit seemed a bit dramatic!

Urgent and key:

Who got what prize items?

― james, Sunday, 9 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Hi James, It would be nice to know. We are all looking forward to finding out!

― Gale Deslongchamps, Sunday, 9 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You damn drunk, Carsmile. Next time it's nothing but fizzy water.

― Ned Raggett, Sunday, 9 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I'm so gonna buy that Tarkus album...or start a band called Tarkus!

― james, Sunday, 9 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

who won female dream date?

― Ed, Sunday, 9 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Starry Sarah (thus RickyT wiv Starry Sarah = Dreamy Couple)

― Graham, Sunday, 9 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

runners-up get prizes too? YES.

― ethan, Sunday, 9 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Runner-Up got prizes to pass on to the winners when they see them. Except I forgot to take the (really ace) Best ILM Poster sculpture so whoever has got it should pass it on to me to (gulp) ship to Australia.

DONT BUY TARKUS, JAMES.

― Tom, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Gale won the maddest poster( hands down! )

― Gale Deslongchamps, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Don't listen to Tom, buy Trakus merely for the most inappropriate lyric ever. In a big portentious keyboard wig out Greg Lake asks God:

"How could you lose, six million Jews". To lose one Jew might be careless.....

Emma thinks if you buy it you may feel youve been sold a pup.

― Pete, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Pete thinks I invented this expression with my own mad brain but I maintain it is a bona fide expression. In fact given that Pete was but inches from the slang dictionary at the time he should've looked it up.

― Emma, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

My resigning was a strategic behind the scenes move after i consulted with tom and he assured me i would not win . It was to save me the humalation of losing the one award i wanted.

― anthonyeaston, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

'Sold a pup' is a bone fide expression. What's more it is my phrase of the day.

― Nick, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What does it mean, I'll stick it in this "What is news" assignment somewhere. afterall it's 3 words of the 2000 I have left.

― Ronan, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It was rubbish! I didn't win anything! And I was too nervous about our upcoming gig to do anything, and had to leave after 20 minutes! But it was still nice to see everyone.

And chickenbear is a TRANSGENDERED chickenbear. I'm very frightened.

Dear god, am I hungover.

― kate, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I think it would be better for Ronan to guess the meaning from the context. The context being: you have just bought the album Tarkus.

― Emma, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

"Since news today can only cater for the majority, a given individual may feel he has been sold a pup".

― Ronan, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Hello all! Sorry I couldn't make it - bloody TEFL, but it sounds like you guys all had a very good time!

― Will, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh my goodness! Anthony! I didn't say that. What I said was that I couldnt tell you who'd won but that Geoff's addition of votes wouldnt make any difference to your chances. The reason being that you were SO FAR AHEAD of the pack on filthiest poster anyway! You would have walked it, and can still swipe your award back from Kodanshi before he comes back from his peephole at the chiropodist's.

― Tom, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Blue pup

― Nick, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i believe the word is "gloryhole"

― mark s, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It kinda fits.

― Ronan, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Shit, you're kidding right . i thought you meant give up. Fuck !

― anthony, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Sorry Anthony I was trying to be clever! You won by one of the bigger margins! You were also very close on cultural which was a v.tight category.

― Tom, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

WEll give me the raw data fuckwad. see what being clever does to you :(

― anthony, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Anthony, it's only a game.. (No. 7 in an occasional series of the most annoying passive-aggressive lines)

― Nick, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

i know and i really care less then i am putting on

― anthony, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

No.8 = "a miss is a good as a mile"

― Best Cultural Poster by a Mile (or equiv.measure), Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

It was good while it lasted eh?

― Ronan, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I can't stop adding the phrase 'as it goes' onto my sentences.

― alix, Monday, 10 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

But I was most distressed and not a little annoyed to discover that top A&M recording artiste Philip "Save Us" Jap had not been booked for the event.

― Marcello Carlin, Tuesday, 11 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Tom - I'll make you a mixtape to make up for shipping price. E-mail me if there's anything you really want in particular.

― Tim, Wednesday, 12 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

And WHY OH WHY were top Sonet recording artistes Pussycat not booked for the event? Perhaps they were marooned on the "Mississippi"?

― Marcello Carlin, Wednesday, 12 December 2001 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)
