And Griff is right, it's hey day is long gone. But there's still much to laugh at in it.

Student Grant used one of my quote about intent/content this issue.

What one?

This sounds like the start of a very saucy joke.

Just some of the odd bods I know, or am related to.

They pretty much all like Father Ted as well.

Are they still prodcuing "Misanthropic Sitcom fan monthly"?

You're confusing misanthropy with realism. Something socialists do all too often, it seems.

But I can't be arsed with Citizen Kane either, and that's its main defence too.

Citizen Kane is meant to be based on Hurst, right?

When it had serious scifi writers like Dave Langford, and I believe a Terry Pratchet at one point.

So your definition of "not geeky" is a Dungeons and Dragons magazine with contributions from an obscure sci-fi writer and Terry Pratchett. Just checking.

Of course it's not an exact quote.

But it's the one where he's defending his use of the N word.

I don't know, as I don't know who or what Hurst is. Some rich guy?

Ah, White Dwarf before it became a Warhammer rag. I remember it well.

Oi leave Langford alone. RPGs had a very brief window of coolness before the days of MMORPGS.

It may have been about 2 years, maybe jsut before the ZX Spectrum came out. But I was there for it, oh yes I was.

No. They. Didn't.

Hearst, you dummies. William Randolph Hearst.

Ha! I'm remember that too. D&D *shakes head* The hours I wasted.
