I'm in love with them.


Watch a few of their performances on youtube, the harmonies are excellent and the lyrics very clever.

We need an advert thread.

My favourite advert from last year was in the same series:

That's because, like me, you are a man of sophisticated taste who does not watch shite.

WP you.

As a general rule, educated sorts like you, Bobalike & I can't be doing with such banal tripe, we prefer grown-up stuff.

Red, Moulty, & I daresay booder, of course, like that sort of nonsense.

Tal? He's an outlier on this occasion. Can't really explain that.

The series has been good, but I prefer having one from each contribitor, rather than lots from one.

The one I posted is massively preferable to the Flo and Joan ones. Clearly the definitive sisters song is from White Christmas.

Comedy duo Flo and Joan got their big TV break by starring in a building society advert.

However it led to both of them receiving death threats.

Bit harsh imo.

Trendy auld shite.

Properly pisses me off all this ironic enjoyment of acts that are palpably, unredeemably, grindingly obviously trash.

It's like all these quegs that watch the chuckle brothers or rolf harris at Glastonbury or at uni gigs. Stood in a field pretending to like something pathetic in mass a mass suspension of intellect, "it's so postmodernly hip and ironic, dahling. Pass me the  mineral water... "  Up yer bollix, you utter weapons.

It's the vestiage of the talentless. Let's wear our lack of ability behind the mask of irony and see which Muppets lap it up. See presenters like ryland and Emma Willis. Pretending their dull schtick, lack of humour, dud jokes and idiocy is just them being ironic. Hinting that they could infact be comic geniuses if they wanted. But they are just being cool. And with it. And ironic. Morons liked by morons

Now we're are to believe these two clowns are comedians. They probably shop at  cath kidston and pretend to like 80s kids cartoons and have cupcake kitchens, and wear striped socks. With brouges

Pretensionsly ironic, dahling.

Fuck off you talentless rotters.
