LOL! McGonagall's great.

I love this one:

I'M a rattling boy from Dublin town,
I courted a girl called Biddy Brown,
Her eyes they were as black as sloes,
She had black hair and an aquiline nose.

Which ends:

So I bade farewell to Biddy Brown,
The greatest jilter in Dublin town,
Because she proved untrue to me,
And was going about with Barney Magee.

Can't complain, mustn't grumble, help yourself to another piece of apple crumble.

TO be honest and rather embarrasingly I always thought Robert Burns had a monopoly on worst lines (this of course is a terrible confession for a Scot)

"Oh poor and timourous beastie,
What a panics in my breastie."

Sheesh!!

"Can't complain, mustn't grumble, help yourself to another piece of apple crumble"

Ouch that one smarts lol!

Much as I love the track, how about "Mirror in the Bathroom" by The Beat? a classic mindf*ck of a line...

"Mirror in the bathroom
please talk free
The door is locked
just you and me,
can I take you to a restaurant
that's got glass tables
You can watch yourself
while you are eating"

THAT ENTIRE FUNKING SONG!!!

No only the song - but the sentiment too.. hmm I fancy your grandaughter. Lovely.

Yes, but using time travel, which means it is the GREATEST SENTIMENT IN THE WORLD.
Try again. Fail again. Fail better.

"I don't like sand. It's so hard and coarse. Not like your skin. It's so smooth."

Or something like that anyway. Die Lucas die!!!

sweaty_badger

"Let's hunt some orc."

Arrrggghhhhhh!!

SiriusB

Fair enough - time travel is spot on for those of us that can do it - but singing about wanting to boff your girlfriends grandaughter is abusing that power - maybe?

Every night in my dreams
I see you. I feel you.
That is how I know you go on.

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never go till we're one

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

There is some love that will not
go away

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

And the award goes to Jen - truly toe-curling stuff(and I can't help but think of French and Saunders).

Floyd-the-k

I obviously haven`t spent as much time inspecting J-Lo`s rear end as some people, but I think she looks pretty good. She was good in `Out of Sight`, the film with George Clooney.
  `When he died a part of me died too` from one of the Rocky movies
 there`s some line about being a kick-ass bitch but I love you anyway in The Abyss, but memory has mercifully wiped a lot of that movie

Gothmog

Good/bad one from the hammer film on Saturday night.

"It seems to have the ability to defend itself.  What if a plant was intelligent, knew who it's enemies were and could destroy them?"
"A plant like that could take over the world!"

On the subject of J-Lo, I'd say the arse was huge but not necessarily fat.  The rest of her's easy on the eye but her singing/acting does nothing for me.
I've remembered a great quote from some film critic on radio one who was attending an awards ceremony where J-Lo was present.
Something along the lines of "Her bottom is huge in real live, even bigger than it seems on-screen and it sticks straight out like a shelf.  It'd be just the right height to rest my pint on though."



House of Usher

As any Caballistics Inc. continuity obsessive/horror film buff will tell you, Dr. Terror's House of Horrors was an Amicus film, not Hammer.

(fingers crossed I got that right)
STRIKE !!!
