What's a 2x4?
Celebrity culture Page 4
4x2 Jew
Quote: sootyj @ February 3, 2008, 10:00 PMExtras Xmas special, Diana concert, bits of Extras 2, but generally I think the guy rocks, I aspire to be as talented as one of his toe nails.
Please don't cast me into the outer darkness as an unbeliever.
I thought all of these were good.
And the crimbo special was brilliant. I don't mind admitting that my heart bled for poor maggie, and the ending was ace. Kind of ties in nicely with this attack on celeb culture as well.

But he said 2x4.

2x4. 2 by 4. As in, wood. He's not a wooden actor. 
Extras Xmas special was funny in places, but had a sour taste at super star Ricky wouldn't be seen dead in Big Brother pretending to be Andy Millman to have a go at celebrity culture, and taking cheap shots at other people in the industry (like Peter Kay doing Dr Who)
He's good but like Sasha Baron Cohen, he's funny, but some of the stuf makes me uneasy.
And in Extras he plays a straight man so when some of the celebs don't get it right it can be cringsome, like the bit with Gordon Ramsey.

Well that's a new one on me.
Both are actually.
So does that mean I could never be a wooden actor, being the wrong dimension and all?
What's that Jewish thing about?
You bunch of mentals.
It's Joel getting the wrong end of the stick I think.
Or the plank, whichever.
4x2 2x4 are both pieces of wood, I guess they both are sticks I'm getting the wrong end of arf arf
I'M SO CONFUSED >_<

Cock-er-ney stylee rhyming. 4 by 2, Jew. I think.
Meh. Confusing. I think it's time for bedtime now. Night night. 
Night!
Aren't we forgetting something?
Quote: Aaron @ February 3, 2008, 8:07 PMI saw a celebrity on Friday. A billion pounds to whichever one of you guesses correctly first.
Jacparov got his billion pounds!
I also saw a very minor fat celebrity on Friday, sitting opposite me on the train. I also got some celebrity gossip from his phone call.
All I can say is "Charlie has been doing it for 10 years, and he was watching an episode of Cirque de Celebrity and thought what the f**k am I doing watching this shit, and so is quitting. But that's off the record". Also someone called Ryan is "a sharp as a tack, talented little bastard"
Who Charlie and Ryan are I have no idea.
This isn't 'Celebrity Culture', but I'm looking for a thread to moan about it, so I think I'll use this one. I really really do not like all this EMO shit on Channel 4. SKINS - I loathe these spoilt, west London type rich kids in real life, must I have to see them on TV? And what's with that ridiculously overdone trailer for it? Channel 4 must have money to burn.
And then there's those T4 presenters. They all look the same, sound the same, dress the same. All speaking in a monotone, sarcastic voice, interrupting the start of programmes with their supposedly funny little comedy sketches, which aren't even funny.
Yesterday I caught a bit of this T4 show called 'Vanity Lair'. A reality show about "attractive" people or something. And there was this one guy who was crying and throwing up in the toilet, all because his face wasn't symmetrical!!!
