We have had a RIGHT good idea

[UrsulaBuffayHere2Help]

while arguing about the rights and wrongs of spending too much time on MN we have come up with a RIGHT good idea for spending more time on MN, when you absolutely must go to work or look after a child it could be comin in your ears. That's right, radio, podcast, we haven't got the faces for telly but we could chat a right boatload of shit.

Think about it.

I volunteer DP's sexy bass voice for the boy parts!!

Disclaimer: there is a train station somewhere in England that has his dulcet tones asking you to mind the gap, so he has some experience

[UrsulaBuffayHere2Help]

does he whisper it to you at the moment of intensity? [mind the gap]

[BecauseImWorthIt]

Oh just think of the larks we can have taking the piss out of peoples' accents and dialects. An audio/aural feast of pedantry ...

[UrsulaBuffayHere2Help]

YY and 30% of all profit to me

[purplepidjin]

There'll be no "minding" of my "gap" on this thread, Ursula

[UrsulaBuffayHere2Help]

[midnightexpress]

Imagine the libel cases flooding in.

"George Clooney's a homosexual"



"Tom Cruise is 5 foot nothing"



"John Travolta's a baldy man"



"Peter Andre is a talentless twat"

No I didn't choose my name because it was in Private Eye! And I hope they haven't based it on me. I do have a cleaner, but my son isn't called Tarquin...

[UrsulaBuffayHere2Help]

Lordy midnight I hadn't thort it through! And how would we represent Terry Wogan's cock in sound effects? It's unworkable.

Hahaaa BIWI I love the becuaseimworthit in Private Eye.

The ones just after the London riots clean ups made me roar - 'me and the DC decided to get involved in the wonderful community spirit of helping to clean London after the riots, so after some thought we decided to let our darling cleaner go and help, after all she unfortunately lives in that part of London, poor thing' (or something like that).

Ian Hislop hates us, such a shame because I love Private Eye.

[scottishmummy]

riiiiight.thought biwi was loreal/jen anniston reference

[Honeydragon]

GetOrf Hislop needs us

Terrys Cock could be represented by


TWANGBOING followed by Bleuurgh!

[Thumbwitch]

It'd never work anyway - twould be a cacophony of voices x-talking all the time.
Nice try though!

[GetOrfMoiSamsungFridgeFreezer]

I love the whole thing. Pseuds corner and luvvies are my faves. I read the thing civer to cover every fortnight, it is like I have gone back to 1987 with Smash Hits magazine

[festi]

When I first joined MN, back in 2006, I spent some time reading around the boards, and it was a real revelation. It made me realise how easy it was for us to be subsumed by our roles as partner, mother, colleague, etc - and how easy it was for us to let other people take priority.

That, plus the fact that I used to work in advertising, led me to this name.

It amuses me that it's been chosen by Private Eye, although it also makes me feel that perhaps it seems to others to be a rather shallow name, which is the absolute antithesis of its original inspiration.

Sometimes I feel it's a bit too worthy, and so consider changing it, but I find that I have become rather attached to it. Although if Private Eye keep using it, I think I may have to switch to the more familiar BIWI form!
