Can I just make it clear I was being sarcastic.  I'm sick of people characterising Atheism as nihilism - they're quite distinct and I'm about as far as you can get from a nihilist.

Yeah, I groaned when Dredd delivered that sub-Terminator line too.  Yawn.  There were moments in that story that cringed a little like that, but the ones that stick in my brain are those last lines.  Brilliant.

I couldn't cope with Gavin & Stacey at all.  I just wanted to throttle every last person involved in it's creation.

Best just let it go, Jim. 

If I get pregnant I'm coming after you Gallagher!

The women in my life are all gossip mag fiends, I absorb it through osmosis.

By the way, us nihilistic atheists don't pray.  Not even to Dawkins or Darwin.  They'd don't exist.

Keith Floyd & Patrick Swayze on the same day?  The afterlife is all at once a better tasting and more rhythmic place.

Is there a 600dpi version we can have a little squizz at?  I'm loving the version I've seen, but the idea that there's one with extra lovely detail is so appealing.

The cute one prone to racist violence in Guildford nightclubs currently appearing on X factor without a stain on her vile character?

Yeah, that's her.

Good idea that, brilliant method to see if you're on the right track.  I reckon I'm reasonable at drawing - If I've got a person in front of me who's being reasonably cooperative I can draw a convincing likeness.  Drawing someone recognisable in a variety of poses they're not actually pulling for you is an utter nightmare - it can be really hard to pull off without devoting HUGES swathes of time to it. 

This is a brilliant way to test if you're doing well.  I can definitely see what you're going for, I might have had an easier time recognising him if he wasn't in things on telly I instantly turn over from.  Hope none of that is too negative, I'm pretty impressed really.  Better than I can manage.

Don't be daft, Pete, I wouldn't have posted if I wanted all activity to cease - i'd merely have launched my improbable doomsday device I've got in the loft.

Hmmm, Judaism has Superman, but who does Christianity have?  The X-Men? (aside from the giveaway cross in the name, they have any number of spin-off teams with subtly different ethos, they're aloud to repeatedly turn evil and then be forgiven, and when they sacrifice themselves for a world that doesn't understand them they're usually back from the dead in about three days).
Wet myself (figuratively, not literally) at that.  Brilliant.

Who do we atheists have?

The guy from Adam and Joe.  Adam maybe.  Or Joe.  No, Adam.  Before the beard.

I'm wrong aren't I?

Ok.  Will Self or Clive Owen would be my guess.

On account of my mum being somewhat unexpectedly admitted to the local hospice I didn't make the signing the other day, I'll console myself listening to this on my way in to visit her tomorrow morning (that and enjoying my un-splatted face thanks to Mr Gallagher NOT having an opportunity to revenge himself on me for my ill-advised jibes previously).
