Is spaciedness a word?
Is the skewed shoulder look back in fashion Matt - I know you're the authority on what's fashionable.

It doesnt matter if that word doesn't exist 'cause i have been given the right by me to create new words for the English language and i think it will now include "spaciedness".
Other recent entries include the verb "to dilem" (an extension of the idea of dilemma) and the verb "to Mr Muscle" e.g. to Mr Muscle the bath.

Tony you're quite free to make up words if you want to extend your own language (Tonyish?, Tonaise?, Tonism?). However as a defender of the English language I would like to see your claimed credentials for the right to add words to the English vocabulary.
matt:

Listen, he said where his credentials came from: "...i have been given the right by me to create new words". So there we go. And apparently new sentence formations for good measure, too.

Lawks, where do I begin to comment? I've spent far too much time in the last week doing assignments, obviously.
1. Has Matt stuffed a bottle of alcopop down his trousers, or was he just (impressively) pleased to see you?
2. I like the idea of Tonyish (obviously). Tonyism sounds like Blairism, i.e. writing dodgy letters encouraging the sale of steel factories to companies registered in the Netherlands Antilles.
3. I can't wait for the day I can say "I Mr. Muscled him" of somebody. It sounds so... naughty!
4. Can Christ Smith walk on water, convert it into wine, or do any of those other neat party tricks attributed to Messiahs? (Why did so many of them involve water, BTW? Plot.)
5. ROFLMAO at Tony the Dwarf. Is he Sleepy? Dopey? Hungry? (Horny?) Or am I getting confused with Smurfs again? I think Tony is really smurfette.
6. Matt is clearly mingy.
7. If Tony is a hobbit, instead, then can I be an elf? I'll learn archery, grow my hair and bleach it (badly) if needs be... (*starts fantasizing about Legolas*)

Tsk, Seldo. Check your sourcing. /I'm/ the hobbit one, being - apparently - neither man nor dwarf. Fun.
Meanwhile, if Tony were a dwarf, he would be Bouncy. If he were a Smurf, he would be the one with the hat.
Tonyish is now an official language. I said so, then.

Christ Smith is the president of the glorious Computing Society. Arent you in that Seldo? All his miracles involve his Jingly hat of doom. Anyone who has been in the computing labs under L3 in the last month will know of its power, if they bother to look at the whiteboard. None of them involve water, thats soo last few millenia daahling.

Re: Tony Classification
I don't think Tony can be a dwarf as I'm sure the dwarves have big noses and beards. Last time I checked Tony wasn't blue either so he can't be a Smurf - and definitely not smurfette (horrible visions of a blue Tony in a dress). Wasn't there a Mr Man (Mr Men?) called Mr Bounce or something like that?
Re: Legolas
Frodo is far better than Legolas.
Re: Tonyish
I always felt I should learn another language so is there a dictionary of Tonyish?

Im pretty sure there was ever kind of Mr Man ever. And if there wasnt, you can make them with the help of that darling little site thats matts got a link to.
I think for the Two Towers they should ditch Legolas and teach Frodo how to do that cool swishing with the bow ;-) He's clearly the scrummier of the two.

Hello!!!
Frodo: short, permanently stunned expression, keeps getting stabbed. Dumb name.
Legolas: tall, blonde, gorgeous, kicks the shit out of most trolls and doesn't sink into snow. Pretty name, too.
Legolas is clearly da bomb!
And Orlando Bloom is much nicer than Elijah Wood, even in real life.

Orlando vs Elijah? We're talking personality or something?
And Legolas is a silly name, it just makes me think of small plastic build-your-own castle rip-off Danish toys. His sole redeeming features are height and the fact that he is _*DAMNED*_ nifty with a bow. Oh, and that snow thing was damned cool as well. OK he rules, but ScrumRating(TM) still lower than the hobbit.

like i said, i'm only a tiny bit interested ion him...

1. I am jealous; we don't have TV reception, so I haven't seen Ally McB in bloody months.
2. James Marsden was also in Disturbing Behaviour, I discovered when *cough* randomly browsing fansites of him *cough*. DB was a crap movie, but I remember seeing it on cable back in Trinidad and thinking what an AMAZINGLY attractive man he was. And in X-men too, obv., though I find superpowers sexier than mere physical appearance, making Storm the sexiest. I can't wait until the sequel, bring on Beast, Gambit and Nightcrawler!

PPS: X-Men rules! i can't wait for the sequel either! apparently its got the same cast...
once again you're right about Storm having the best powers. although there's a character called Psylocke in the comic/cartoon who is by far the coolest woman EVER with really cool powers! no doubt she would have been a gay icon had she had more publicity.

The coolest characters are easily Gambit and Nightcrawler. Both coz of the accents primarily and powers secondarily. Oh, wait, Archangel was pretty damned cool too, obv. Oh, Havoc too, funky headgear. And I haven't seen the film :*( *flagellate, flagellate*

I like Psylocke! She's in the X-Men game on PSX. But she's just telekenetic. So Storm is clearly better. And I loved the X-men cartoon. Dark Phoenix Saga were my favourite! Ahem. Okay, will shut up about X-Men now.
Disturbing Behaviour was really crap, I can't believe so many people have seen it. Although I have it on video.

Phoenix doesn't count! She's not an X-Man (political correctness anyone?) she's an entity that temporarily possessed Jean.
Havoc's crap but i agree with Archangel.
Spiderman?! you must be joking!
Oh, i also think Gambit and Iceman are cool! (no pun intended!)
Mystique is *SOOOOOOO* cool in the film! that fight with Wolverine was amazing!
Psylocke isn't *just* telekenetic!! she has superhuman martial arts abilities she can channel her psychic powers into a physical form (cunningly called "psychic knives"!) which can range from knocking the victim unconscious for a few moments to paralizing them permanently!!

Archangel is yummy. Yeah, I thought about Psylocke and the psychic knives (in interesting transparent purple colour). But she rebelled and tried to kill Xavier, so I don't like her. I don't rate Spider Man, although the Ultimate Spider Man series at Marvel.com at the moment is pretty cool. The whole dotComics sites (also featuring Ultimate X-men) is fantastic, and everybody should read it.
Also, James: you don't admit that kind of stuff. Not even to your friends. That's like me admitting I joined the Justin Timberlake fan club at Yahoo. Whoops.

He has talons, and a hologram that looks like marlyn monroe, and there are flying bikes and direct human-computer interfaces (a lil socket in ppls heads).

Does anone else find it weird so many of us watched far too much of the X-Men cartoon? (I don't think X-People sounds as good, PC aside).
And surely most powerful is Juggernaut if we disqualify Phoenix, coz he's invincible.
Okay, sci-fi scariness #2 over

Seldo: I know, didn't mean to, it just kind of typed itself. Although I can now take the time to admire the well scripted plot and...scenery.

Not only did Tony make it to a computer before me after our last lecture, he made a post to the board while I was still walking home! Bitch!
I think the *only* cool thing about Spidey is that he doesn't kill people, he just insults them with sarcastic commments for about 20 minutes while he fights them, then turns them over to the authorities (who mysteriously still shoot at him all the time, despite the fact that his only known activities are turning over criminals to justice -- who hired these people?)
Also, in real life superheroes would be a disaster, because they would never hang around to give testimony, so the police would never be able to make an arrest and they'd always have to let the criminals go free. So I suppose killing them makes more sense, really. Except it means you keep having to come up with new villains.

Aaaarrgh! Please. Not the face.
I still think the best superhero ever is Spiff. But there again that's as far as I got into liking comics.

Ahh, well. I look forward to the extreme campness I will apparently develop in my old age ;-)

I’m soo disappointed no one has rushed to claim my uber-cool points. You all suck. Especially matt, who claims to like the band.
I shouldn't work so hard, its bad for my temperament.

You'd better not have been sleeping again! You've been doing far too much of that recently, Mr. 15-hour-Monday. Especially not if it makes you late for bows tonight. 9.15 bus! Get ready! :-)

Please tell you know where WOO! hey comes from? Pleeeease? Anyone? They won the bloody Mercury Music Prize for it iirc, though it was slightly before my time...

On a completely tangential poin - is anyone going to be around over Easter? I just trying to work out if there will be anyone worth talking to over the holiday.

Tangents? Here? Avast you irrelevant scum!
I'm gonna be around the second half of the hols... But I'll be netted for the duration =)

Just to clarify: one of my housemates friends pulled Mr. Young, apparently. I will be around for about a week, same as last term: technically working, actually spending all day in Xananas.

Everyone's stopped posting comments - has Will's website gone out of fashion?
On a tangential point - As there's not many people to talk to (at least not people who actually answer text messages) I've updated my website again (www.mattcorder.freewebsites.com). I've actually added some new content. Unfortunately my trial copy of Dreamweaver has stopped working now as it's past its trial period so I'm not sure when I'll update it again.
