And there we have it. My strict enforcement of an ideology is going to create an opposing
force ('cos everyone's different & there's no one-size-fits-all system). Have you heard all
the media-talk about Thatcher in a positive light recently?

Of course, if the debate had been about 'Four Weddings & a Funeral' you wouldn't've
heard a peep out of me, except for calls for the burning of all cast members, production
crew & anyone involved in the making of that cock-puss. Crucify the caterers for
obvious reasons.

We're all hypocrites. I want my cake & eat it, dammit! (*stamps foot*)

I might switch the cuke with one of those butternut squash things, they're impressive.
Should the hanky be in the right or left back pocket?

I like the black jelly babies best, and despise the green ones. Honest truth. We must arrange a jelly-baby exchange program.



And with regard to your chosen uniform for Wednesday, the cucumber in particular will make you very popular with the regular clientele of the venue. Might I suggest Sir sports a red handkerchief hanging out of his back pocket?

Yes, fair comment, I'm simply picking out the processes from behind an evaluation & ignoring

context. By my logic, I should be hung for preferring green jelly babies from all the other colours.

Worse still, I can't stand the black ones. Is that supposed to be blackcurrant flavour? Fucking

horrible.



But it is interesting to see how many simple processes (primitives) are lumped together into 'macros'

in the brain, tiny parts being re-used over & over again in very different (or not) situations. I have to

make a coding reference as that clicks for me.



I'll be wearing my Queen t-shirt Wednesday, replete with Brian May wig & Derek Smalls cucumber.

And also - us lot here are all within the overarching Killing Joke Venn diagram. However the subsets work, props to anyone who is enthusiastic enough about KJ to have sought out this list, and more to those who contribute.



Personally, someone liking Killing Joke is a quality that causes me to overlook all sorts of other peccadilloes, such as liking Queen.

This is where it all goes wrong & the snobby cliques come to the fore. Brendan is no moron, but he

likes the Matrix (as I do too). I also like Seconds, Straw Dogs, The Meaning of Life & Battle Royale.

Oh & Brazil.



It's interesting to see how groups form & create 'sides'. Especially when members of these groups

are supposedly against non-inclusion, prejudice, etc. Yet fundamentally they play exactly the same

game... different game-pieces, same game...



I'm no better, of course.

Which was better;
a) The Matrix
b) Brazil

My vote, BRAZIL!!!
