I've learned too late.

 

[rettucs]

James Earl Ray's ashes are scattered in the Wicklow mountains.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Newtownmountkennedy?

 

[Jill Hives]

Newtownmountkennedy?

What about it?
Seems like a nice place for a drive as long as it's not snowing.

 

[rettucs]

Newtownmountkennedy?

not sure exactly, though that would be ironic wouldn't it.

the best description of the location I could find was a 'big hill near Dublin'.

 

[Cormcolash]

I went through Newtownmountkennedy earlier, looked nice, but all those wee towns in the hills there look nice

Morgan Spurlock made the 1Direction movie.

 

[7 - No tomorrow]

Morgan Spurlock made the 1Direction movie.

Yeah, he's a gun for hire now I think.

Although the trailer was good. In the sense that I wasn't overcome with hatred for these guys like a good number of the internet seem to be.

I always assumed the chaos symbol as beloved by anarchist punks etc was ancient , up there with arcane signs such as those use to represent the elements or astrological signs.

I just found out it was devised by Michael Moorcock, sci-fi/fantasy writer

Cherie Blair's Da was in Till Death Do us Part. What the actual fuck like?

Or rather, things I knew once but now forget.

@Jill Hives - you once mentioned this fella who used to make observations about preferences/ trade offs etc.

Foe example, "would you accept a 10% reduction in how people rate/ preceive your intelligence, for a 10% increase in how attractive they rate you"
or
would you sacrifice all knowledge/ memory of a band you love, for an x% increase in how attractive people consider you to be" etc.

They are not the real examples, but were along those lines. Who was this guy?

 

[Jill Hives]

Chuck Klosterman.

Cheers! Now to find all those interesting questions!

Sorry, not really the right thread... but this question from Chuck Klosterman

You meet your soul mate. However, there is a catch: Every three years, someone will break both of your soul mate's collarbones with a Crescent wrench, and there is only one way you can stop this from happening: You must swallow a pill that will make every song you hear--for the rest of your life--sound as if it's being performed by the band Alice in Chains. When you hear Creedence Clearwater Revival on the radio, it will sound (to your ears) like it's being played by Alice in Chains. If you see Radiohead live, every one of their tunes will sound like it's being covered by Alice in Chains. When you hear a commercial jingle on TV, it will sound like Alice in Chains; if you sing to yourself in the shower, your voice will sound like deceased Alice vocalist Layne Staley performing a capella (but it will only sound this way to you).

Would you swallow the pill?
