I actually can't think of anyone who makes worse music to Raed. It's amazingly, mind-blowingly awful.

Yeah, 'fucking glorious' is about right.

Me too. I really don't like Kevin Barnes' delivery of his lines, but somehow the song works despite that. It's bonkers, it doesn't really fit the album, but I find it hard not to enjoy.

Well put! When the reggae groove kicks in, it feels especially cathartic.

Awwww shit, I'm gonna have to do that right now! Thanks for the heads up.

Genevieve nails this when she talks about the two halves of the album. The first half is almost like musical crack, an insane run of huge hooks and amazing grooves (the moment when "Q.U.E.E.N." transitions into "Electric Lady" may be my favourite musical moment of the year). The second half took longer to grow on me,

I like using it when I see three or more identical things too: "I'm seein' triple here: nine _____s!"; "I'm seein' quadruple here: sixteen _____s!", and so on.

I totally agree - it's my all-time favourite Simpsons joke, and one of my favourite lines from a TV show ever. I don't know why, but the more I think about it, the funnier it gets. Sometimes I think about it in bed and start laughing to myself. 

I also love when Homer crashes the car outside Milhouse's house, and then flies through the windscreen a few seconds later.

"I'm seein' double here: four Krusties!" - my all-time favourite line from the Simpsons. The more I think about it, the funnier it gets.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik will always have a place in my heart.

@Tardis1:disqus : What in the holy shit are you talking about?

If your brain is mispronouncing words, that 'something' is probably a stroke.

Screw you, FlintstonePhone, I can stay wherever I want!

I was thinking of the Paremata bridge - I can't imagine a mass exodus over the Rimutakas would really work! That road is treacherous enough when there aren't 400,000 people trying to flee a natural disaster.

When I was a kid I thought it was ridiculous that they would only have one bridge out of town, until I realised that my city (Wellington, New Zealand - the capital city, no less) essentially only has one bridge out of town.

Me too, I was sort of disappointed when it wasn't.

I have to admit, though, that I was disappointed he didn't return to his original idea of coming to New Zealand to become a bush pilot.

Whoa whoa whoa, hold your horse-AIDS!

I had this half-baked idea after seeing it that each pub somehow represented one of the twelve AA steps, hence why Gary was so desperate to visit each one to get 'closure', but I'm pretty sure that's complete bollocks. Still, if anyone has any evidence to support this, I'm happy to take full credit for this theory.
