Crouton - a dried, doughy, sub-atomic particle among the smallest known to modern science. Smaller than our friend the electron, yet still a bit larger than the elusive quark. Adds texture and roughage to common objects such as tables and chairs.

Also, an excellent catalogue of British vernacular is being serialised in Roger Mellie's "Celebrity Swears" (Viz magazine).

Poppycock.

And the Australian tongue is one of those corrupt colonial dialects:

Jiffy - a conveniently non-committal descriptor of time for the near future: "Yes, dear. I'll do it in a jiffy."

Witches tit

"Witches tit"?

Mr. Stockwell was talking about quarks and peanut butter and I was getting confused and Dude said "witches tit" and I like totally freaked out, Man!

Thanks, Dude. I'd rather be oblivious than confused.

Welcome, Stephen Stockwell.

Hey Stephen? You know anything about witches' tits?

We have this weirdo on this forum who is locked into Halloween fantasies. Black pointed hats drive him wild. He has several brooms. He has a fixation on Harry Potter...

Of course I won't mention any names...

If youm bes after seeing her besoms melover, youm bes' do it dreckly.

I grew up in Cornwall. Gad!

Hello.

Such a small, yet dedicated enclave of ILX going on here. I usually just stick to ILM. How did you talk Tom Ewing into carving a space out on the server for this, this weirdness. I take it you don't get many visitors round 'ere. Is this house haunted?

I've had more than my share of witches tits, although I couldn't speak with any authority on them. I'm really just doing my best to put those memories behind me.

Stephen, ask a drunk started originally on the good ship LUSENET, first home of ILE/M, when our orginal home got trolled into the ground (it was an unmoderated forum) the great and good here granted us a home, for which we are quite fawningly grateful.

Our numbers used to be stronger, though our ranks were never legion, but have faith, we shall rise again.

Dude! I'm like soooo stoked you guys, like started this thread, man, 'cos I'm, like, way all into this kinda shit 'n' stuff.

Hey, Man. Like, chill. You know?

This group will groove again. We'll have antelopes and grebes and mandrills and...*removes hat*...Blissium!

Yes! Yes! All we have to do, Ask a Drunkers, is click our heels together and say, "There's no place like home, there's no place like home..."

When we wake up we will see that this has been a dream and Rex will be there and Linky and Jarlid and Robin and CJ and hurley and Weebleman and...and those horrible Yanks? "THEY won't be there will they, Aunt Em?"

"I'm afraid they will be, child. Zen Clown wants your cherry and Dude Steel wants your dress...Aimless? Who knows."

Matt has just aquired a Korean cookbook and HE wants your dog.

"Aunt Em, are these people really drunk?"

"I'm sure the Clown is but I don't know about the others."

I thought it would be click your heels together and say "there's no place like Ormskirk, etc"

I was thinking of Ormskirk, and the Cheesemiester, and Sue, and hatpins...I didn't think about hovercraft though...Or mandrills.

Ormskirk and hatpins and grebes.... OH MY!

Hmmm.
So is there any kind of tangible concept, god forbid a philosophy, behind this board? Is there a locus of thought happening here, or are you all just free radical quarks?

"So is there any kind of tangible concept, god forbid a philosophy, behind this board?"

No.

"Is there a locus of thought happening here,

No.

or are you all just free radical quarks?"

Mostly radical drunks. Lynskey may be a quark as he has been reported to sometimes be in two places at the same time.

I read somewhere that a ducks quark doesn't echo.... isn't that really odd?

In the South Pacific republic of Vanuatu, a policeman is called a 'gubmint catchum fella.'

"Down Under", this forum would be fair dinkum, eh Stephen?

Lahk this? No, lahk that. Creepy crore lahk.
