"look, it's going to get out anyway: our mate here is suffering from dioxin poisoning and we just want you to know that he's still in the band."

They got caught with some weed behind the sports hall, but they weren't smoking it properly.

Sirius.B brings to you the finest Absurdist Gypsy Folk Funk Punk that the world has to offer. Their "impressively irreverent, combustible, three-ring circus of sound" (as described by the Mountain Xpress) is formed using an ancient recipe of gypsy melodies, Andean folk instrumentation, and Uzbekistani dance rhythms blended with a solid base created from some elements of American rock.

least punchable band member of Sirius B: GO

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 12 January 2011 19:53 (thirteen years ago) link

Imhotep. Actual band member name. I shit you not.

At least they are classy enough to enlist Weird Al as a guitarist

the cellist could look like a nice gentleman if he were in another context. the rest, how i wish i had six fists.

Antoine Bugleboy (Merdeyeux), Wednesday, 12 January 2011 21:43 (thirteen years ago) link

this is where I enact my new phrase 'omg running at u with knives'. I feel it is appropriate for this particular band photo.

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 12 January 2011 22:08 (thirteen years ago) link

knives: they fly @ u face!

big ed girlie (Pillbox), Wednesday, 12 January 2011 22:18 (thirteen years ago) link

it's a brilliant turn of phrase, but I dunno, it seems like a lot of work to shout,"omg running at u with knives!" while you're running, especially if you tend to get out of breath easily. I'd suggest simply grunting "omgrrrrargh"and letting your victims figure out what you're saying based on context cues, such as the running and the knives.

it's much more effective in printed form.

In the physical world, it would be manifested by me actually running at them with knives without announcement, rather than yelling it and giving the game away.

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 12 January 2011 22:33 (thirteen years ago) link

you've really thought out this "murdering Sirius B" thing, haven't you? ;)

on reflection, the girl on the right is the least punchable because (1) the red AIDS awareness ribbon (if that's what it is) on her hat shows that she has at least a passing concern for a greater cause than figuring out how to clean the spit out her melodica (2) her smile isn't goofy/ironic; and (3) she's set slightly apart from the rest of the group, opening up the possibility that she was photoshopped into the frame to meet the band's "one sane-looking person who looks like they don't belong" quota.

dying to punch the accordion guy

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 12 January 2011 23:00 (thirteen years ago) link

girl on the right gets it bc she plays melodica. I don't need any more reason than that.

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 12 January 2011 23:01 (thirteen years ago) link

and attention-getting hand gesture.

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 12 January 2011 23:01 (thirteen years ago) link

"least punchable" really just means "punchable, but slightly less punchable than her extremely punchable friends", so by all means punch away.

'omg running at u with knives' needs to be used in other discussions too. brilliant

gospodin simmel, Thursday, 13 January 2011 00:32 (thirteen years ago) link

Caught Smoking Oregano is especially great because Beiberhead on the far right looks really worried about his parent's finding out.

VegemiteGrrrl, Wednesday, 19 January 2011 16:17 (thirteen years ago) link

the rhapsody of fire photo upthread is great. the bald guy looks conspicuously out of place - like he's sheepishly peering into a wig convention.

where I'm from we call that "high"

children of the church planters (Edward III), Friday, 21 January 2011 20:33 (thirteen years ago) link

Nope. I've been high/ been around plenty of high folks in my day. I also had a severely autistic cousin. Trust me, these dudes look a lot more like him than any of my THC influenced friends.

tell me this is a hospital band that plays for patients

VegemiteGrrrl, Thursday, 3 February 2011 15:06 (thirteen years ago) link

That first picture is like a publicity photo from a remake of One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest where Jim Carrey (second from right) plays McMurphy.

Danzig, with tears in my eyes (DavidM), Thursday, 3 February 2011 18:32 (thirteen years ago) link
