Hey! Happy, happy, happy day Laga. And may 2011 be your best year yet.
By the way, why do I like typing and writing 2011 so much more than 2010? I love round numbers, but 2011 just looks better to me.
You got fired, and you still hang around here like a big loser. Why can't he?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Happy Birthday, Laga!!!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Happy birthday, Laga!
Weren't the one who was looking forward to when Emmett and I would get to see the Old Greg episode of The Mighty Boosh?
Well, you were right. Emmett's Old Greg impression is frighteningly accurate. Nobody wants to hear their son squeal, "I gots a Mangina!"

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I agree, 2011 is prettier.

So, not just me. Excellent.
David, I can't get Old Greg's song "Do ya love me?" out of my mind.
There is a great youtube version with the guys singing on Jo Whiley's radio show. Love it.

Yeah, Emmett does that whole speech with creepy accuracy.
We also tend to look at each other randomly and say things like:
"Make an assessment."
The Mighty Boosh documentary in the box set is pretty fun. Especially where various famous fans talk about watching it with their kids.
Billy Bragg was saying that he was getting on his son's case about something, and his son (referring back to the Arctic episode with the Polar Bear) just looked soulfully into his eyes and said, "Hold me."
Another parent noted that when he was chastising his son, his son responded by turning his back on him, like Nabu. He did the little banjo riff too.
Mr. Susan's "Ooh, it's cold" tends to pop up in my head a lot.

I SO want to do the Nabu spin on someone, but nobody in my real life would get it!
The "Nabulio, why did you have to go?" number from the live show may be my favorite of all the songs, closely followed by Bouncy Castle and Soup. Oh, and the "I like to boogie" song from Vince's blood stream.
Heh. I'm imagining the brains of non-Boosh fans reading that paragraph and squinting.

What?! "Ape of Death"! #1
Also, Vince's punk phase turned out the scatological masterpiece that concludes with "Irony completed."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I have tried to watch The Boosh and just not gotten into it, but I know enough to be able to appreciate the fans' squees. It's like, I know I don't like shrimp but I think it's fun when other people at dinner order shrimp cocktail.
