What do you think of Ali G? He is having an HBO special soon. I've never heard of him, but Newsweek had article about him... and my neighbor from England absolutely raves about him. Sounds like his bit is pretty funny.
He used to be really funny before he got famous. Now he's become the thing he used to be a paradoy of.

The character was originally created/ used to wind up important people in spoof interviews. For example, he's interviewing one of the country's top military people (for real, except the interviewee doesn't know it's a wind-up) and will ask questions like:
"So, if you want to get into the army, right, does it 'elp if already killed someone? 'coz my mate Kenny, right..."

or when interviewing a very old and respected judge:
"So, when is it ok to shoot someone?"
"It's never ok to shoot someone. That's against the law"
"Yeah, but what if he calls your mum a slag?"

ANd so on...

Thanks for the overview fellas, I appreciate it. I suppose I'm intrigued enough to watch it.

Oh, and primitive- thanks... I'll try and hold on while you hack your way up!

*Tuts to himself as Growltigger tries to look intellectual and smart after disproving the belgian army, when really he'd lose a game of scrabble with a toddler*

Well you see Growltigger, think about the IRONY for a second, they come from a flat land yet wear and act like they come from a mountainous country, i mean it obviosully confused you for a couple of minutes, thusly sparing me vaulable seconds to launch that all important first attack! Also they eat so much chocolate i have to send them on long treks over mountains for exercise, yodelling is one of most god awful noises on the planet, maybe second to country and western, or perhaps just less worse than the cheeky girls! Also i prefer the old method of mail, sending my belgian post carriers to dispatch Messages so they do have to be aquipped with the proper gear. All these factors combined point to the reason why the travel in leiderhosen, yodell and generally act as they do

Now once you've got off barry and stopped trying to act all high and mighty and the expense of others and being narrow minded and perhaps to some extent narcissistic we can get to the rest of your post!

As for inbreeding i have no idea, could explain a lot about my family, but as for sheep molestering i'm pretty sure there ain't any sheep where i live, probably because there are rumours of giant married cats in the area, who like to have sheep molestered by mongoose hordes and have a fondness for red hot pokers (hey i never said sheep have to enjoy the molestering!)

Maybe i'm just in a mood, i did have a total nervous breakdown today, or maybe you're the only person around to feel my venom, sorry if any of this offends you GT, but i'm sure you love yourself way to much for this to affect you, are you related to Cat from red dwarf? there seems to be a striking resemblance between you two....

Well i step forth and accept the chase to begin, but at least i have made my unrepentant defense and will take my punishment as a man

TAAAAAALLLLLLLLY HOOOOOOOOOO

mac sits in his usual cornor, eating some dandy chocolates he found thrown around that cantina, in between munches he amusingly watches various members trying to mount good ol Barry the T-Rex, nothing like watching someone try to put his torso on a T-Rex, most hilarious one might say, Mac sees Dogscoff in one of the other cornors, with his shrunken head over some sheets of paper or construction paper, mumbling to himself and writing with an ink quill, hmmm, he notices RD doning what appears to be running atire, and TC slowly climbing up onto the bar and gyrating most grotesqly (sp?), poor Taz.... he has a front row seat, HEY TAZ, have a double on my tab

Now where is the old Gryphin, hiding behind the rose bushes again most likely ,

Mac looks downa and makes sure his chair and table are secure, then leans back and continues to enjoy his chocolate find

just some ideas Mac

I need to be cheered up. Tis been a really long week, and I really need a beer!
A day late, Dogscoff sets Atrocities up with a fully recling chair, a barrel of Guiness and a funnel.

Just lay back and open wide...

...Taz watches the preparations for the hunt and meanwhile tries to maintain business as normal at the bar... (not an easy thing to do HERE)

Quote:
HEY TAZ, have a double on my tab
Thanks, Mac!!

(A double WHAT?)
Hmmmm. Oh Mac must mean a double KEG!!! What a great *and generous* guy he is!!!!

Taz gathers the kegs and some tubing and an old worn baseball hat along with a few fasteners and creates the galaxy's first Keg Hat - must keep the old hands free to work!!!

With a grunt, Taz places the Keg Hat on his head and, tubing in mouth, proceeds to have a drink on Mac's tab.

Thanks again Mac!

Oooh watch out everybody, toys are being chucked out of prams at rapid velocities!! High and mighty and narcissistic I can handle but narrow minded? moi? I think not...

To answer your question, the "Growltigga" persona IS a cunning combination of Edmund Blackadder, Cat from Red Dwarf, a touch of Q and a brief vignette of Klingon

I prefer verbal dexterity and repartee to violence. Do look back at some of the old threads at the wonderful arguments Geoschmo and I had
