FIRE!




Wikipedia says:




"Book burning (a category of biblioclasm, or book destruction) is the practice of destroying, often ceremoniously, one or more copies of a book or other written material. In modern times, other forms of media, such as phonograph records, video tapes, and CDs have also been ceremoniously burned, torched, or shredded. The practice, usually carried out in public, is generally motivated by moral, religious, or political objections to the material.
Some particular cases of book burning are long and traumatically remembered - because the books destroyed were irreplaceable and their loss constituted a severe damage to cultural heritage, and/or because this instance of book burning has become emblematic of a harsh and oppressive regime. Such were the destruction of the Library of Alexandria, the burning of books and burying of scholars under China's Qin Dynasty, the destruction of Mayan codices by Spanish conquistadors and priests, and in more recent times, Nazi book burnings and the destruction of the Sarajevo National Library.
Some particular cases of book burning are the result of unacceptable material according to generally accepted moral, community and or religious standards; for example child pornography.




Richard's bass bag has contravened all moral, community and religious standards (with the exception of child pornography). Maybe its time to light those fires.

You'd get a better blaze if you burnt those fucking over priced picture frames. Why not do your bit for the recession?

You'd know Bin Hire.
Hey, if you Arabs eat with your left hand because you wipe your bum with your right hand, with which hand do you play with yourself?

I think that you are a very rude and nasty man. You shouldn't make fun of Richard and his blogging - he can't help it. I suggest that you have a couple of wines and you will then see that what he says and does appears much better.

Thanks for the support, The Wine Guy's Nicola.

Bas's Bag said...

Oh! I just reread your comment Nicola and I see that you are suggesting that one needs to be drunk to appreciate my comments.
Cheeky! Also, The Curmudgeon (I'm sorry for calling him comeinyourpants - it must have been my understrength medication), is OK. He is grumpy for sure but not really nasty. Rude yes.

No, I've changed my mind, Comeinyourpants is a dick.

Calling all Guys!

Bad news. My new medication is also an anti-psychotic. This means that it will fix my schizophrenia and you will also disappear. Sorry about that. Thanks for coming.
