And another thing

When the fuck did R'n'B change from being rhythm and blues to.............whatever the fuck it is now?

That's a question that's puzzled me for years, G.

Especially annoying is when people then claim decades of "roots" for the modern-day R&B. Like the Temps, most of Motown in fact.

Perhaps Immo has a theory ?

Always

It was all the fault of the megalith of dance

The ultimate triumph of capitalism over creativity.

Can you tell the difference between "Trance" and butter?

Nobody could.

The industry had the perfect product on it's hands

Like bottled lager - essentially the same product in every package

Only the names change

All the PR men had to do was invent some unlikely (and often entirely unsuitable) nomenclature for what was essentially just a slowed-down or speeded-up variation on a centrally-programmed theme from "the throbbing belly of the technobeast" (Why Disco Sucks The Big One - Nutter et al)

Hence - R&B for the most rhythmically predictable, utterly bluesless, spineless, soul-less, heartless waste of the record-buying public's time, money and attention span.

I think Bobby Brown started it off too which only underlines my point what with him being a cunt and all

Or was that swing-beat

The doctor is IN/WAY OUT THERE (delete as applicable)

Strong argument Immo.

Depressing though. And you're right, Bobby Brown is a cunt. Just as Whitney.

Toots sez to inform you that far from being a strong argument, it's a

"...total streama consciousness pish that you're liable to inflict on passers by any day the fukkin week! The Slamannan parish priest is still recovering from yer dissertation on why Jeremy Clarkson should have his cock cut off FFS!!"

(A joke -obviously. Slamannan has had no priest since all the Tims were driven into the Black Loch by Toots' antecedents sometime in the 1920s)

That Swiss finishing school paid for itself really

"Bobby Brown is a cunt. Just as Whitney."

he,s always been known as whitneys cunt.

I remember him when he was Cathy's Clown

But I'm very old indeed.

Immo, but not as old as some here!

What next, C'n'W becomes 'ambient death metal'?

It stinks, I tell you!

The forces of mendacity and duplicity are upon us G!

Will we never be set free?

If it wasn't for the excellent services provided by the good people at Smirnoff Inc, (Company motto - We're a corporation - we fukkin own you - admit it- you can fukk around with that "head" stuff all you want but the basic fact of it is - we fukkin own you") I think I'd lose the will

Oh...


Them and Ian Oontah!

Great, and Mick Ronson too! Hull produced a little bit of magic there.

Hell, Hull, and Happiness.

L'amour, Demure, Stenhousemuir............................................

Very good.

this has got to be the wittiest board on the go, even wittymad.net cant compete.
apart from the cocksocket, you all cheer me up

Can you imagine all our egos in one room though sev, Jesus. Odds on sperms would get smacked first.

You'd be in the queue trying to get a word with me, Crown. Fukkin groupie.

Probably true mate, you make me laugh, and I like to laugh.

It's probably the only relief you get from the grim reality of being a hun, I'm guessing.

Apart from cycling and masturbating of course.
