Heaven knows Xym's miserable now...

Too stressed.

Panic attacks.

Xym has gone all quiet on the blogging front. Which, if you're reading this, you may not have noticed, as at the time of writing it's stored in Draft Mode, and will be published with all the other draft blogs in a job lot later.

Why the stoppage? Well the misery of a stressed out Xym looms over such bloggery, and the usual jocular overtone isn't as humourescent as The Xym would like it to be.

So they'll be published later, and there'll be such a block of blogs to wade through, (hopefully) everyone will miss the miserable period!

Mwah ha ha ha ha!

Xymon Milat, The Bacon Backpack Bewailer...

Honestly!

If fireyarms were legal in the UK, I'd be shootin' up punks more than George Zimmerframe stalking black burglars who take exception to being followed by creepy ass men lurking in hedges on the prowl for black ass to rape. Backpackers buried in Belango State Forest? Gunned into shallow graves in Fiddlewood Woods, more like!

or something.

Anyhoo, it all started with a Saturday Breakfast.

The Xym, being all stressed and glum, decided to pop to the market for a bacon bap. Mmmmmm... bacon bap!

So, this time, I used BsTs, which presumably stands for Bacon's Terribles! Not only did they replace my Bap with an oversized crusty breadstick, the bacon itself was green. Irridescent green!

Like petrol-reflective shimmery green, but not shifting in the light as you move. The actual bacon was green, like some scaley green baconfish.

So I didn't eat that!

So, I popped to George's next door (where I normally have their fantasic Big Brekkie when I'm celebrating) and had a yummy yumscious baconian meal of the proper sandwich persuasion.

And here is where homicidal Xym comes in.

As I stood there, blissfully baconing, some gobshite decided to sit on the chair.

At 90° to the counter, with his back to me.

Without removing his backpack.

What is it about backpacks that turn people into right selfish cunts?

I mean, I get the fact it's a backpack, so belongs on your back, but surely common courtesy would dictate you remove it from your back and carry it in confined areas?

But not only do these dumbasses refuse to remove their rambling gear - they tend to swivel more than normal folk would. Presumably from the momemtum of their Quasimodonian lump upon their back.

They barge through, taking up the space of two people (because it's never a small, thin, backpack, it's always a huge, overstuffed bulging hump protruding from between their shoulders.

Oh, we're at a gig... and here comes a bopping backpacker. "'scuse me. coming through, coming through", whilst wacking people with his backpack. Turn here, wallop a few more. Turn to apologize whilst clobbering the clubbers on t'other side.

Like this cuntbubble, plonks himself into a tight space, mahoosive hump overspills the chair and spills me milky coffee. Turns to apologize, and almost takes the eye out of a mobility scootering scooterer. Reverts to original position with backback overhanging my latter half of sarnie.

Just take it off and put it between yer legs!

Squirming through a crowd - take it off and carry it in one hand.

Alternatively, give Xym a rifle and one of them there Licence To Kill Backpacking Bastards With No Manners!

The Taverham Titty Terrorists of Bra Bombing Beauty...

...or something.

Right, last year I saw a poster for an Event. This year I saw a new poster for the same event.

As you can see, this is quite an average poster.

Nothing wrong with that - Exploding Brass! A Norfolk accompanyment to The Last Night Of Them There Promenades.

But just like last year, I look at that poster.

And I don't see that poster.

I see this poster.

Pooperman Poo...

Dreadful!

Superman is a really odd shape. Especially his face.

Lois Lane has a really cute nose... but that's about it!

The Phantom Zone isn't even a spinny bit of mirror'd glass!

Zod is no Zod. And can't act.

Ursa is... definately not Ursa! The sexy slut with the slit at the top of her legs1. She's some war veteran battleaxe in armour called Ferrero Roché or something.

And as for the "plot"... by God it was ever so dull! Plot hole after plot hole after HUGE plot hole!

I won't be buying THAT on Blu-Ray then!

1 THERE'S SOMETHING TO BE SAID FOR LUSCIOUS LADIES WITH LONG LITHE LIMBS IN SLUTTY PVC SLITTED TROUSERS SLIT RIGHT UP TO THE HIP!  URSA JUST OOZES 50 SHADES OF KRYPTONITE! OH MY!! FERRARI IS JUST A MISERY ARSE. MAY AS WELL HAVE JUST CAST MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ AS THE POUTY PUERTO-RICAN INTERPLANETARY SPACE MONSTER FROM THE KRYPTON FACTOR2 WITH AN ATTITUDE PROBLEM WHO LIKES TO DUFF PEOPLE UP A LOT.
2 OR THE KRYPTON FUCKED HER, AS SHE WAS CLEARLY GETTING IT ON WITH ZOD. NOT TO MENTION LOIS SNOGGING SUPERMAN - HE'S A SPACE MONSTER! IT'S LIKE BEASTIALITY - SHAGGING PREDATOR, THEM WAR OF THE WORLDS MARTIANS WITH THEIR TRIPOD "THIRD LEG", OR THAT BETENTACLED BEASTIE IN SUPER 8. IT'S JUST WRONG - LOIS, WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU? ALIEN SPUNK FROM SPACE UP YER SNATCH INDEED.

?? ??? ???? Nightbreed: The Cabal Cut
Remember Nightbreed? Snatched out of Clive Barker's hands and the last minute and butchered into a crapfest that made no sense, lost the whole plot and now impossible to get hold of? Well, Clive Barker recently found his VHS copies of the original footage that was thought lost. The film has been painstakingly reconstructed and re-edited to reflect the original vision. This "rough cut" is apparently really fucking brilliant, and pisses all over that shambles that was originally hacked to pieces for the original 1990 release. Obvs, as the extra footage is from Clive Barkers personal VHS collection, it's not great picture quality. However, turns out the "lost" footage isn't lost at all - Morgan Creek are still in possession of it! A negotiation has been agreed for them to release the footage for an uncut special Blu-Ray release... as long as they don't have to pay to produce it. WATCH THIS SPACE!!

Neil Gaiman - Yes, Neil is writing a new Sandman! This will cover the events Morpheus mentioned prior to his capture by Burgess. From Neil himself: "When I finished writing The Sandman, there was one tale still untold. The story of what had happened to Morpheus to allow him to be so easily captured in The Sandman #1, and why he was returned from far away, exhausted beyond imagining, and dressed for war. It was a story that we discussed telling for Sandman's 20th anniversary... but the time got away from us. And now, with Sandman's 25th anniversary year coming up, I'm delighted, and nervous, that that story is finally going to be told,"
