I wouldn't contribute but I'd certainly read it, and feel sorry for everyone who tried to take it seriously as it descended into 'who can post the most facetious response', and hate myself for laughing. But you can always give it a go!

:) Yes, but need contributors, who will post? perhaps Zooo can tell us if one has been tried?...

If you search 'poetry' in the search box (top right) you mainly get a few threads in critique where people have posted poems. But if you want to start a thread in General about poetry, go ahead!

I think I'm going to have a go at the music too.

I'm not going to do this. It's come out a weird cross between Nirvana's Lithium and Handel's Water Music. Unimbloodypressed

EDIT: I am definitely going to do this. It's turned into a weird cross between Genesis's's's's That's All and um, something much cooler which I definitely love and listen to a lot.
I have suspicions I might be writing a f**king funk opera :D

Here's a question about social etiquette that I would like to ask the BCG -

I will be going to a BBQ / Birthday party this Saturday. As has been the norm at previous events, there will be women and children present. If the womenfolk start rabbiting on about X Factor, BGT, The Voice, etc. and then making us hear their stupid ass kids singing said shite from these programmes - would it be acceptable for me to drunkenly sing very loud and very abusive football chants over their monotonous droning or should I do what I always do, which is smile and nod politely whilst secretly imagining their horrible deaths?

People seriously do that?

Yes, they really do invite RC to birthday parties.

Have you not seen Facebook? People are so proud of their kids these days, I'm surprised no one brings out their stools in plastic bags going 'look what little Jemima did today'. Why they think it's right to inflict their misguided appreciation for all things mundane on me is a bleedin' mystery.

'Go on Noah, do the song you heard on the telly, go on.' beams the freakishly excited parent as their tiny bastard murders some piece of shit Olly Murs crap that I don't like anyway.

Angry

You should bring your parent/guardian and get them to say, "Go on R.C, show everyone your elephant impression" and then proceed to pull out your pockets and unzip your fly.

Nightmare. You should get rid of them by suggesting they do it properly inside and use the sofa as a stage or something, and then stay away.

Laughing out loud

I would do, but don't won't to get accused of being a paedo - I know, I'll bring a rucksack and claim I'm a nudey rambler, everyone loves those.

Try suggesting anything to do with parents and their kids that in anyway impinges their God given right to do whatever the hell they please and you'll end up the bad guy - guaranteed.

Just for gender fairness, I have also noticed men being excruciatingly annoying about their very dull kids. But, yeah, I'm with you- could you not go along later and say in a loud voice 'How nice to see everyone, I would have thought it was the children's bedtimes by now'?

Said without, even, a hint of irony.

Written without, even, a hint of intelligence. But I am pleased you brought up the concept of irony.

Is it ironic if you never write anything funny on a comedy forum?

Simples turn up naked with a glove puppet

parents never take their kids anywhere near naked guys with glove puppets,

leaving you to get wasted and eat burned meat to your hearts content
