Your choice of method might have suited the saint which I fear you are not

[alexsarll]

It wasn't until I hit Soho last night that I realised why I'd chosen exclusively from a pool of Sam Smith's pubs for the evening's drinking: they don't have Guinness.
Even my subconscious is a genius.
I'm most disappointed that al-Qaida didn't take advantage of the peon-thronged streets - you'd be able to get loads of explosive into one of those Guinness-pint hats. In fact, they should all come with a small explosive charge as standard, because anyone donning one thereby forfeits their right to own a head.

While I entirely sympathise with Lee and Herring's objections to the parable of the Prodigal Son, upon hearing of the conversion of a longtime Buffy sceptic to the faith I suddenly find myself sympathising with Jehovah's feelings on the matter.

Having been struck the night before by the fever from nowhere after not drinking and eating a square meal, last night's drinking on an empty stomach seems to have seen it off nicely.

So you're saying the cure for post-drinking not-eating stomach pains is... more drinking-with-not-eating?

I think I'm essentially reprising William Goldman: NO ONE KNOWS ANYTHING.

Fat lot of help you are today our Baz.

Hey, Socrates was hailed as the wisest man in Greece for saying much the same!
Anyway, tbh I was expecting commentary on this one mainly to concern tw@ts in hats.

See, the St. Paddy's day brigade set the hat-wearing movement back years last night.

Surely no movement could ever condone felt monstrosities of that sort in the first place! I do not associate such misdemeanours with the fine headpieces worn of late by yourself and wardytron in any way.

[publicansdecoy.livejournal.com]

Can we expect to see you flatcapping it in the near future then?

Alas, though I have always approved of hats in principle, experiments many years ago proved that they never suit me.

[wardytron.livejournal.com]

Oh I don't know. How about a crown though? Suit you down to the ground, that would.

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Maybe, but bear in mind you can't really buy yourself a crown, can you? It'd be like referring to oneself as famous. Not the done thing.

I'm thinking a Greek-style helmet might work, but obviously that's only for outdoors.

P Diddy wears a crown that he bought himself, and it doesn't look at all nouveau on him. To the manor born, he is. But maybe something involving laurel leaves would suit you better.

[barrysarll.livejournal.com]

Yes, very old money is old Squire Diddy.

When serious_k made a Sim of me, she found she was running low on male heads so gave me one with laurel leaves. And it did suit me rather well. If memory serves said Sim then proceeded to sleep with the entire street before setting fire to something. In many ways it was a prototype of later experiments with fictionalising me but people never seem to learn.

I never let that stop me.
