Random Music Talk XLIX: Celebrating traditional Australian customs

[cobl04]

I am that excited for the Boxing Day test match. To me, it's the equivalent of the AL vs NL MLB games.

In honour of the great man Ax and I are talking about (and to ensure some connection to music), this great song:

Ponting has a better record than Hussey in my opinion. Hussey is right up there though.

I hate interleague baseball, so there's that.

 

[cobl04]

How come?

 

[PhilsFan]

Because the DH is fucking stupid.

 

[bono_212]

Yeah, that and I just don't like the possibility of seeing the world series before it happens. I also don't like NFL interleague either, but that seems to be a less popular opinion.

 

[cobl04]

Well, that's a really shit analogy then

 

[bono_212]

Father Ted is on Netflix!

I wake up from the traditional Christmas day arvo nap and this thread appears? Nice use of Paul Kelly though...

My Mario Lanza album still had the Target sticker on it: $3.59

It's a white Christmas in Melbourne today. Lot of people have had car windows smashed from hail.

 

[PhilsFan]

It's always a white Christmas when you do as much cocaine as I do.

It's a white Christmas in Melbourne today. Lot of people have had car windows smashed from hail.

Damn. That's a white Christmas the hard way.

 

[Axver]

The hail has been amazing, never seen a storm in Melbourne quite like this.

Father Ted is on Netflix!

speaking of british tv...i swear, the past two christmases now i have turned on the tv at the exact same time. how do i know? both years i've turned on the tv to see mr. bean on top of a diving board.

 

[cobl04]

Mr Bean is hilarious.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

yes!

mr. bean's holiday or whatever was on later too. i was chatting with my mom and missed it all, so i've no idea if it's crap or not.

 

[cobl04]

I thought it sucked. I didn't like the first one much either.

This was my favourite.

The part where he pulls out all the pens is among my favourite television moments.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

omg yes!! i think of it every time i see some chump with like 20 pens when i take a final.

 

[iron yuppie]

Mr Bean is hilarious.

Have you seen Blackadder? Rowan Atkinson's finest work, in my humble opinion.

 

[Imperor]

Merry Christmas, gang.

 

[PhilsFan]

And my axe.

 

[bono_212]

yes!

mr. bean's holiday or whatever was on later too. i was chatting with my mom and missed it all, so i've no idea if it's crap or not.

Not got much of an opinion on Mr. Bean, ht I love Johnny English, and am pretty excited someone randomly decided to make a sequel.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Merry Christmas, Everyone!

One bloke has been proactive:

What brand of beer is that? You know when "cold filtered" is featured that prominently it's gonna be shit.

 

[Earnie Shavers]

It is shit.

 

[cobl04]

What brand of beer is that? You know when "cold filtered" is featured that prominently it's gonna be shit.

Oh it's a fucking horrendous beer. I'd rather be designated driver.

 

[Danny Boy]

Happy Christmas, everyone...
