I don't make the news, I just report* it.

*"report" in this case meaning posting someone else's link

As you were.

Hegarty looks like Rosie O'Donnell in that photo.

Rosie playing Robert Smith. Or maybe that's Chris Gaines.

"Antony" has no "h" but "Johnson" does. Who has that kind of spelling memory you bastid?

On the contrary. There's five musicians I'd love to send to Ypres.

Considering your frame of reference, I would consider my complete lack of experience in the homo-fellatial arts and advanced analinction technique to be a damn preferential situation, in bed or otherwise.

Besides, didn't you brag of your masturbatory conquests of this summer not too long ago? Not gonna look good on your resume.

Maybe we should all fill out resugays so OPA has a proper guidebook and isn't just fellating in the dark, as it were.

I have never heard of this band. It's probably for the best.
