A
Poet
Used to be
someone who
Wrote a lot of lines that rhymed & were otherwise
possessed of a musical quality that did not
necessarily require
strings or drums in the
background
& was altogether too smart for words
Now a poet is
just
someone who
fucks about with the length
of
lines
so as to make
the utterly
banal
appear to have unplumbed depths of meaning
which I suppose
is at least moderately
more
democratic

Everyone's a poet ... only they just don't know it.

Get the poet mug.How to Rationalise Telling Sam She was Akin to a Dead Mouse in a Latrine in Swahili, by R.A.K. Martin-Smythe. Now a minor motion picture from the Confrere Brothers.

Get the now a minor motion picture mug.To say something not meant to be said in polite company, thereby committing a serious faux pas. To say something politically incorrect. From the arch-villain of the Harry Potter series, whose name is not supposed to be mentioned in civil wizarding company.

Get the mention Voldemort mug.by Fearman August 4, 2007
Get the moulin rouge mug.Affected humorous goodbye to someone the speaker can't stand. The bit before the comma is spoken out loud, the rest is more sotto voce; the whole phrase may be repeated straight out to a third party.

Get the see ya, don't want to be ya mug.Born Timothy Dexter. Classic narcissist. Reformed alcoholic and drug addict, might not have entirely straightened out. Claimed, without verification, to have been the theoretical second choice for the role of Woody Harrelson's character, "Woody" Boyd, in Cheers. Became a wacky pseudo-environmentalist wingnutscrewballsup who travelled to Alaska from round about 1990 to his death in 2003 to try to get ... close to ... bears. Documented his exploits on videocam, some of said footage making the guts of Werner Hertzog's biopic "Grizzly Man". Ended up doing a Michael Jackson impression over steaming bear shit. Came to believe he was the bears' last good hope, and started ranting on-camera against the wildlife service, humanity in general, et cetera.
In the autumn of 2003 he tried heading back south to be with his family or other friends; at the airport he got into a towering rage with somebody and failed to board the plane, instead returning to the Alaskan lake shore where he had spent the summer. Unfortunately and despite his assumed name, in so doing he didn't tread very well at all. In the meantime his favourite bear clan had all gone into hibernation and another group had moved in to time-share the place, where a few weeks later Treadwell was reminded of the six basic relationships an animal species may have with other animals in the wild: you ignore it, it picks off your parasites, you pick off its parasites, you fuck it, you eat it, it eats you. This list included the last option, and unfortunately he had taken his latest girlfriend along for the ride as well. After the bears had dined on long pig to their hearts' content the park rangers arrived to collect the leftovers and shoot the bears.
Living proof (better still, dead proof) that you shouldn't believe everything you see on Walt Disney movies.

I wanted to be an eco-warrior when I was younger, but then I heard about Timothy Treadwell and wizened up.

Get the Timothy Treadwell mug.Welsh actor. Brought a civil, icy, slightly mental persona to the figure of James Bond 007 that just rocks, no matter what the begrudgers say. Got one okay film and one bum one, which sank his Bond career long before time. Buried the execrable Roger Moore and (as a patriotic Paddy it pains me to say this, but ...) waaaaay better than Pierce Brosnan's poster-boy Bond. Only bettered (maybe) by Daniel Craig in 2006's Casino Royale.
