V for alliteration

The man just does not stop! After that dynamite alliterative intro he keeps the magic alive in all his public speeches, and I hadn’t even noticed until cruising through YouTube. Of course you know that alliterative verse was popular with the Vikings…you can connect the dots, right? Did you know that the last alliterative verse drama performed in England was written by JRR Tolkien? And it’s not half bad, either.

But, frankly, it’s not this good.

hyperbole o’ the day: Fark it out, bitch!

You really do have to admire the Farkers. If it were not for the divine glory that pours from their keyboards, would anyone ever have looked at this?

The worst imaginable cover of Europe’s The Final Countdown – this makes you pray for nuclear armageddon just to burn the tears of laughter off your face. I’m not kidding.

And seriously, he was not kidding.

quiz o’ the day: which Simpson are you?

I was inclined to give this a miss, because there aren’t that many questions and I couldn’t even pick out the comic book shop guy from them, but when I saw the result it gave me I knew it was uncannily accurate.

You Are Bart Simpson
Very misunderstood, most people just dismiss you as “trouble.”Little do they know that you’re wise and well accomplished beyond your years.

You will be remembered for: starring in your own TV show and saving the town from a comet

Your life philosophy: “I don’t know why I did it, I don’t know why I enjoyed it, and I don’t know why I’ll do it again!”
