0:13 I thought she was trying to be tough.

These BASTARDS, Bernard and Manny's version was far better!

Mustique is probably nice.

And I'll say, "you.. filth! Take a photograph of me if you must, but leave her out of this. She didn't ask for this, she's just an ordinary lingerie model."

I can't thank Manny enough for giving me the perfect homework excuse, "I had to burn it because it was too good."

[outlawsspoof]

@ShadowWolfofPack Thanks for that, brilliant idea. Screw my essay.

Man this track is pimpin! Whats it called

[ShearsOfAtropos]

you must undo this thing, it's too good...

It couldn't be simpler, there's the academic who survived the Stalinist purges and is now having flashbacks to that time. There's his daughter, who's long bitter marriage is collapsing around her. And the journalist who's investigating the academic because he suspects he was never in Russia at the time and then he falls obsessively in love with the daughter and sacrifices his whole career to become a lens grinder in Omsk. I mean where's the problem? I don't think we should talk down to children.

[bludgerable]

@ADJPease that would be an awesome story, BB should have been an author

WHAT PRESS, WE'RE ON A PIG CHARGING THROUGH A VELVET FIELD

[Sailorsega]

I feel sorry for the children who grew up before they could read this

[drattigan91]

I don't know whether this is ironic or not. Maybe this is a function of me having lived away from Britatin for seven years...
