  1. As per the other thread, here is me with a strange blond man, a strange Japanese man and two lady wrestlers in Shinjuku after my first trip to Sumo Hall. I am taking something very seriously despite being unable to stand, much less wield my tour poster like the sword I clearly think it is.

    And here is a pic I took of the fabled wall in Korakuen Hall where you can see all manner of strange graffitti.

  2. Some of my favourites on top of some of those quoted...

     

    Homer

    "Fame was like a drug, but what was even more like a drug were the drugs."

    "Please don't eat me! I have a wife and kids. Eat them! "

    "Lisa, vampires are make-believe, like elves, gremlins, and eskimos. "

    "I wonder where Bart is, his dinner's getting all cold and eaten."

    "Marge, quick, how many kids do we have have? No time, I'll just estimate. 9!"

     

    Grandpa

    "I am disgusted with the way old people are depicted on television. We are not all vibrant, fun-loving sex maniacs."

    "I'm filled with piss and vinegar! At first, I was just filled with vinegar."

    "I can feel death's clammy hand on my shoulder. Wait, that's my hand."

     

    Burns

    "Oh look! Some careless person has left thousands and thousands of dollars just lying here on my coffee table. Uh, Smithers, why don't we leave the room, and hopefully, when we return, the pile of money will be gone."

    "I should be able to run over as many kids as I want!"

    "Look at that pig. Stuffing his face with donuts on my time! That's right, keep eating... Little do you know you're drawing ever closer to the poison donut!"

    "Tell you what, we come back and everyone's slaughtered, I owe you a Coke."

    "What makes a man endanger his job, and, yes, even his life, by asking me for money?"

    "Hello my name is Mr. Snrub and I come from some place far away. Yes, that will do."

     

    Anyway, the bit of Simpsons that always makes me piss myself has little to do with dialogue.

  3. I never saw your previous sig attempt, but I'll be one of the first to commend you on the current one as well as the avatar.

     

    It was a pic of the flaming bed with Rick and Vyvyan on either side, from the episode where they move into the new house and argue over the room, before Vyv sets fire to it and both shout "Neil, your bedroom's on fire!" Of course, I wittingly spelled "neil" with a lower case 'v' in order to marry the general Young Ones theme with a parody of the theory that our neil lives in a grotty bedsit. It was possibly the most pretentious thing I've done for ages.

     

    And yes, Rik is a legend. As well as Rick, Richie Rich and Richard Richard, he breathed life into the wonderful Alan B'Stard, and forever won my heart with the wonderfully self-deprecating "Quad bike flashback!" remark during one of the later Bottom Lives.

  4. He should have got onto Revenge on the N64. Every other fucker did. Let's be fair, by the time that game was released in summer of '98, who the fuck wanted to be Glacier??

     

    EDIT - Louch, I have Revenge, and he isn't.

  5. The action in Edwards/Strong was sound, but it was ludicrous over-booking of the worst kind.

     

    The idea of a third fall being "to settle it" once you've established both are fairly evenly-matched by tying the first two - then having said fall be an Iron Man - creating the possibility of MORE "evenness" and necessitating overtime - just over egging the pudding from the outset, and if the concept of the match promised masturbatory booking, it delivered it in spades.
