Glossary Update 2012

Actually, I just had a look, Dan, and it seems references to you regarding Warner seem to have been massaged somewhat.

Also think how I'm hurting that none ran with my Warner / mini Lou Ferrigno observation.I really invested in that one. Cricinfo wouldn't even stick it on their shitty Doppelgangers section. Or some wankstain who bothered to make some shitehouse Adam Lyth /Moby reference. Sniff.

Gosh, I feel honoured. I mean, I wasn't really going to sue.

I've gotta stop ™ ing things.

What you need to do is be more like horace and if you think something is funny, repeat it over and over until somebody notices. Granted it rarely works and most people will think you area sad old joke.

Oh, and where do you find dogs wearing bowler hats?

I've tried the 'Horace initiative' and it makes my nose bleed. All my faves have fell by the wayside - Starc / Burt from Sesame Street, Siddle / totem face. I mean, what's wrong with me?

Dogs wearing bowler hats? London. Maybe it's caught on in Sydney? Ask Trev - he knows where it's at. During the English summer 'it' is 'at' the outside of Ian Bell's mansion of lies.

droll

Brass Monkey, do you wish me to remove references to you as as the first user of the term "Reinventor"?

, you can say that I molest canines .

Don't come over all coy now. If you weren't asking for it you would not have been wearing the bowler hat.

I am slightly surprised by the very narrow definition of 'nice tits Red' ... this began as a rebuke of a particularly dense and weasel-worded post, the only merit of which was the attached avatar ... the application of the phrase to 'repeat threads' is only a narrow part of the original 'sledge', even if it's the most widely accepted and utilised bit

arsecloning: not bad

belligeraint: probably doesn't carry as well as intended the full impact of the inept half-drive to mid-off when well set

Cronwall: bananas!

I agree on the point about NTR.

Tho I would call it not so much a 'narrowing' as a redefinition.

And I would say 'intense' or 'mischievous' rather than 'weasel-worded'.

I've just noticed TNS for Steve Smith. Hasn't had much currency and it seems to have been premature.

and re: 'Symbals' ... shouldn't that be 'Cymbals'?

... time to freshen it up a bit? Happy to have a go. Some of the stuff is very old, and I think there's a lot more current stuff that isn't there yet.

'Sicknote' - Tim Paine, Chris Tremlett, Ryan Harris?

Have we got one for JonathAn Trott yet ...?

Bit late, but 'Esio'?

I think it has to stay, if only to provoke Danny into action.

Clearly one of Zat's. Or not.

The San Andreas fault is skully's fault.

skully's fault (n): everything that is wrong, in the universe

I think some workshopping of this needs to be in. Everything is skull's fault, in the same way that the meaning of life is 42.

Need to throw in an (a), and a (v).

Topbottom?


It was originally LLL's suggestion for Sidebottam but became corrupted.

I know that, you twit!

Zat might have been 'the Aussie softcock' (Dello's label) who put the glossary entry in. Or maybe it was me.

No Show = Maxwell....time to make it official.

Yep, that's got to go in.

Or he could be Hobson's, or Buckley's

That would explain him generally but you would need another term for the brain snap.

Liz: as in Liz Taylor the morning she woke up next to Larry (probably not topical enough)
