Words with the letter coupling "ae" in them are great. Very aesthetically pleasing, don't you think? The sound the Google Toolbar makes when it blocks a popup is very nice. Pirates rock. Yaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! The Kaiser Chiefs album is excellent. As is the Gorillaz album. And Avantasia are really cool. good stuff, anyone? This isn't a thread for Unhappy Bob. But he's welcome if it'll cheer him up.
Yesterday me and my lovely boyfriend celebrated our six-month anniversary -- through e-cards and msn. Therefore I am happy for msn and e-cards. And phones. I'm also happy that school is almost here because I am bored off my butt and eating too much junk food. Curse you, Krispy Kremes! *shakes fist* So yeah, woo hoo to the last year of high school!! Let's get it over with people, yay!! *parties*
New CDs are good. The new M.I.A. album is really good. The Futureheads album is excellent. The White Stripes album is a bit of a let-down but still good. And words with "oe" in them are good too. Oedipus. Onomatopoeic.
Random music that no one knows rocks! (go Orgy, Bright Eyes and Hawkwind) Jigging assembly is also good. Being able to mentally scar someone by just sitting there and grinning is also excellent.

Being able to play Tears in Heaven on my acoustic guitar is good. The sound of my guitar amp on distortion is great. The new Seether album rocks. "How to start your own country" is good. This thread and the words onomatopoeic and aesthetics also rule.
No one knows Hawkwind?? Ah, the youth of today! :roll: The picture I drew last night for the next instalment of [i:ebfb5621ed]2001[/i:ebfb5621ed] prods buttock!

The weather report; since it bodes well for a gathering on Sunday. The Robin in my pear tree; a beautiful dawn chorus this morning. The smell of fresh laundry, straight off the line. Ivan_the_terrible; whose answer to the age question in the introductions reminded me of Kirsty MacColl and my need to buy her "best of" album. [size=9:df819e0724](I'm easy to please!)[/size:df819e0724]
Freya's screen name, because it reminds me of the Irish wolfhound called Freya that my parents used to have. Irish wolfhounds. They rock the Kasbah. (What is the Kasbah, and why does it get rocked?)
As far as I know (and I [i:9e38aac8fe]may[/i:9e38aac8fe] have just invented this) it's like a heream and it gets rocked for some reason that a good catholic boy like me wouldn't know about but according to popular music it's something that birds, bees and educated flees do. I can only presume it means fly.
I see... You learn so many new things when you hang around with Doormen! Doormen rock! (But not the Kasbah.)
Actually it originally meant a castle or palace. Latterly it just refers to the older, central part of a city, particularly a large square. [i:c3d430c40d] By order of the prophet We ban that boogie sound Degenerate the faithful With that crazy Casbah sound But the Bedouin they brought out The electric camel drum The local guitar picker Got his guitar picking thumb As soon as the shereef Had cleared the square They began to wail Shereef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah Shereef don't like it Rockin' the Casbah Rock the Casbah[/i:c3d430c40d] Which was wayyyy too much information - sorry!
The Casbah (i've always seen it spelled like that, but I have no idea which spelling is correct) is a sort of building, usually a harem (yay Rincewind) present in old Arab cities. AND THE CLASH ROCK! (the Casbah) Edit:d'oh! crossposted with Sleepysarge, who also outposted me. Edit again to say that I edited to mention the crossposting. EDIT AGAIN! This is a (k)casbah: [img:e30d7b08c1]http://www.mwenda.com/Morocco/58SCasbah.jpg[/img:e30d7b08c1]

Graa. :lol: Anyway, mobile phones are great at the moment, because it allows three of my friends to text me in the space of 20 minutes and make me feel loved! (although to be quite frank they also suck because they texted at 9:30 in the holidays... I was happily in the Land of Nod at this time!) Also my friend Bethany rocks because today she is no longer a dweeb. It's her birthday! Which means that until my birthday she's the same age as me, and not a dweeb! Huzzah! Edited to add that little brothers rock... most of the time. :lol: **hugs little bro**
Before this thread turns into Casbah Discussions 101, I would like to add that pancakes rock. Especially with lots of maple syrup. Edit.. I proclaim that today is officially Toaf Is Crossposting Day. I thank you.
Today is payday. This rocks. On Saturday I book my holiday to an as yet unknown destination. Holidays Rock. On Sunday I go to a Festival (think it's called a 'mela') in my local park. Festivals Rock. Edit for clarification
Causing several people all across the globe to be humming the same infuriating tune rocks Forgetting you switched off your phone for a meeting this morning, thereby allowing you uninterrupted board time rocks The fact that this thread has so much energy, therefore lots of people are happy about lots of different things. rocks and yayyy for everyones musical tastes!
The title of this thread should clearly be called 'this that rock!' Also going to the Zoo rocks. Which i hopefully will be doing tomorrow. Monkey exibitions rock!

We so have to do a London Zoo Doormencon soon! Port Lympne Animal Park rocks! That's where I want to go with Garner this weekend. He wants to go to see the Mary Rose. That also rocks!
Ahr, monkey-lover! You shouldn't be allowed to visit Zoos and circuses. :!: P.S. Your new avatar realy rocks! P.P.S. all goes to Rinso. :roll:
My new 'little red x' avatar? Oh yeah, it's all the rage. The zoo will rock big time. It depends on the weather, if it's a crap day, it's too the tate modern to act pretentous and laugh at modern art that i don't understand!

Also, a zoo dmc would rock. Howletts, i think, has the biggest gorrilarium (I'm sure that's the word) in the country. Gorillas rock. Also, alton towers. That would be great. In fact, I'm going there in about a month for a friends birthday. We get to go in an hour before it opens to everyone else. ROCK.

Still having money in my bank account when payday rolls around rocks plentiful. Guns & Roses 'November Rain' rocks, especially the really long live version with Slash wailing on the guitar and crap. That rocks. Not caring that everyone will think I'm lame for liking Guns & Roses rocks. *rocks out* :rock:

Doing obligatory maths and latin early in the morning then having the rest of the day all blissful and empty ROCKS.
Sunshine Catching up with an old friend on Messenger this morning and organising a get-together. Getting closer to that fateful day when Amazon will send my Kirsty MacColl & Gin Blossoms cds. ...definitely rocks!
Sunshine absolutely rocks The first couple of days of consistent sunshine in three months rock The end of winter rocks, hooray!
Sodding off home early to "work from home" rocks Playing some of the music suggested in the band thread really loud while "working from home" also rocks!
And (because I'm home) I don't have to use skanky old IE and can have everything organised in Firefox tabs - which rocks!!
Getting lots of treats because I had to get my stiches out today rocks! (Bacon sarnies for lunch - bring it on) Big fluffy jumpers rock. So soft... :lol:
Decorating one's entire room while listening to the new Sufjan Stevens CD rocks in an extreme manner. :rock:
