  • Satan's jukebox - The revenge of the kaiser chiefs.

    Well, well. It seems my arch nemeses the kaiser chiefs have returned. The music press are calling their new record a "step forward" and i'd have to agree. "Ruby" sees them move away from the annoyingly chirpy, have-you-ever-actually-been-outside-you-pathetic-
    little-ponces jolly shite of their previous songs and replaced it with an all-new style of boring razorlight shitness. Good for them.
    NME called Ruby single of the week. Heres why they're wrong:

    Kaiser Chiefs: Ruby

    Can it really only be 18 months(yes and what a magnificently unshit 18 months its been) since Ricky Chief rode Britpop 2 to orgasm (You can fake orgasams you know...)at Glasto, mounted on the back of an inflatable Brontosauraus? Sigh. Since then - having hoovered up more Ivor Novellos and NME Awards than Noel Gallagher's cleaning lady (and probably the same amount of penis)- Leeds' finest have maintained a low profile, looking on as labelmates The Automatic have taken their chirpy, big-chorus formula to unparalleled heights.(The Automatic are also shit.)

    Not that New Yorkshire's finest ever seemed likely to 'do a Darkness'.(The kaiser chiefs are so ridiculous they make The Darkness look like Radiohead) A rollicking guitar-pop hit in classic Kaisers mode (ie. SHIT), 'Ruby' comes from the same numbskull (Last time I checked, "numbskull" is not a good thing) school of pop composition as Oasis' 'Lyla'. Which, in roadie speak, means putting a bird's name in the title rarely fails.

    Starting with the riff to The Faces 'Stay With Me', (Wow, start the first single from your second album with someone elses' work. How daring.) it morphs into an 'Oh My God'-style stomper, where Ricky discovers that being famous means he's falling for the sort of woman not usually found on the night bus. (Number one - they're called prostitutes. Number two - does that posh twat really look like he's ever used public transport?) "Could it be that you're joking with me/And you don't really see you and me", he pleads, and the vulnerability which endeared us t'Chiefs (I think the word you're looking for is "wankerness" and no, it didn't endear me) in the first place is suddenly re-instated.

    While all this may not sound too zeitgeistular,(Zeitgeistular is not a word) it's a sign the Kaisers have both grown musical muscles and exited Novelty Island in the nick of time. (There is no such place as Novelty Island. If there was, and the Kaiser Chiefs were on it, then I would have destroyed it in a way that avoided mass popluation centres.) Big (No.) and clever, (They say ruby four times in a row in the chorus. This is not clever) the Kaisers won't be going the way of the dinosaurs (I.E. knowing when the universe is sick of you and to fuck off and die)for a while yet.

  • Simpsons quotes for everyday use

    This is from an online newspaper article which talks about the simpsons influence on popular culture. Sound familiar?

    Quote: "Ohhh. I've wasted my life."

    Episode: "Treehouse Of Horror VIII" (10/26/97)

    Context on the show: While reading a comic and loudly lecturing Aquaman on his romantic choices, the Comic Book Guy sees a missile bearing down on him and comes to sad terms with his impending death.

    Real-life uses: Useful at virtually any moment of self-realization or self-awareness, unless you cured cancer today or something, big shot.



    Quote: "Stupid TV! Be more funny!"

    Episode: "Marge On The Lam" (11/5/93)

    Context: While trying to understand why a studio audience is laughing appreciatively at a dryly serious Garrison Keillor-like performer, Homer pounds the family TV, trying to improve its humor reception.

    Real-life uses: Whenever frustrated with any form of insufficient humor, from your friends' lame jokes to, um, sub-par episodes of The Simpsons.


    Quote: "Everything's coming up Milhouse!"

    Episode: "Mom And Pop Art" (4/11/99)

    Context: Milhouse utters these immortal words in joy when the rolled-up cuffs of his "flood pants" keep his cuffs "bone-dry" after Homer floods Springfield as an elaborate piece of conceptual art. Beat that, Christo!

    Real-life uses: Useful for celebrating any lucky, unexpected sequence of events, no matter how comically minor or insignificant. (Note: this phrase need not be reserved solely for people actually named "Milhouse.")


    Quote: "May all your disgraces be private!"

    Episode: "The Boy Who Knew Too Much" (5/5/1994)

    Context: Corrupt, distinctly Kennedy-esque Mayor "Diamond" Joe Quimby offers his William Kennedy Smith-like nephew Freddie Quimby this self-serving toast at a fancy birthday party.

    Real-life uses: Can be applied to any scandal-prone wild child of privilege whose obnoxious behavior threatens to hit the tabloids. It's especially useful for the scions of powerful families with surnames like "Hilton," "Kennedy," "Bush," or "Trump." It can also be employed by Page Six freelancers after successfully shaking down publicity-conscious billionaires for hush money.


    Quote: "I was saying 'Boo-urns.'"

    Episode: "A Star Is Burns" (3/5/95)

    Context: When the audience at the Springfield Film Festival boos Montgomery Burns' entry, Smithers reassures his boss that the crowd is actually chanting "Boo-urns." The audience then reiterates that no, they were actually booing, though Hans Moleman mutters that in his case, at least, Smithers was right.

    Real-life uses: It can be an actual, gentler substitute for booing—complete with exaggerated frowny-face—or, in keeping with the original spirit, it can be a way to express that you aren't going along with the crowd.


    Quote: "In another, more accurate way, Barney is the winner."

    Episode: "Deep Space Homer" (2/24/94)

    Context: After Homer and Barney compete for a spot on the space shuttle, the scientist in charge of the project reassures them, "In a way, you're both winners," then clarifies the point.

    Real-life uses: Substitute any victorious team and/or person for "Barney," and you've got a smart-ass way to answer the question, "Hey, who won the game last night?"


    Quote: "Yes! 'Crisitunity!'"

    Episode: "Fear Of Flying" (12/18/94)

    Context: Homer's response when Lisa informs him that the Chinese use "the same word for 'crisis' as they do for 'opportunity.'"

    Real-life uses: As an irrationally exuberant response to any impending crummy situation.



    Quote: "Then get me his non-union, Mexican equivalent!"

    Episode: "A Star Is Burns" (3/5/95)

    Context: When Steven Spielberg isn't available to direct the self-aggrandizing opus "A Burns For All Seasons," Mr. Burns demands the next best thing. Enter Steven Spielbergo.

    Real-life uses: Any time you have to settle for second best. For example, virtually everyone turned down the male lead in Basic Instinct 2. Thus David

      Kaiser Chiefs is an English indie rock band who formed in 1997. Hailing from Leeds, the group consists of vocalist Ricky Wilson, guitarist Andrew 'Whitey' White, bassist Simon Rix, keyboardist Nick 'Peanut' Baines, and drummer Nick Hodgson. They were named after the South African football club Kaizer Chiefs, a team which former Leeds United defender Lucas Radebe played for.[1]
      The group's debut album, Employment, was released in 2005. It was primarily inspired by new wave and punk rock music of late 1970s,[2] and enjoyed international success with sales of over three million.[3] In 2005, the album was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize.[4] Kaiser Chiefs' second album, Yours Truly, Angry Mob (2007), yielded "Ruby", a number one single in the United Kingdom.[5]

      Ficus is a genus of about 850 species of woody trees, shrubs, vines, epiphytes, and hemi-epiphytes in the family Moraceae. Collectively known as fig trees or figs, they are native throughout the tropics with a few species extending into the semi-warm temperate zone. The so-called Common Fig (F. carica) is a temperate species from the Middle East and eastern Europe (mostly Ukraine), which has been widely cultivated from ancient times for its fruit, also referred to as figs. The fruit of most other species are also edible though they are usually of only local economic importance or eaten as bushfood. However, they are extremely important food resources for wildlife. Figs are also of paramount cultural importance throughout the tropics, both as objects of worship and for their many practical uses.
