Sounds like a three-way pile-up , as featured in a Ben Dover "Housewives On The Job" special.

Glice for the win

Nice list, senor Glice, but I'd add as a bonus place: Disgusting greasy dreads and/or wilting mohicans.

I saw a 'punk' woman today in Soho that was dressed so revealingly, and had a body so sexually appealing that I genuinely feared for her safety.

I wouldn't consider hairstyle as an accoutrément, but you're welcome to demur.

Top ten hackneyed punk clichés

10."We're real punk, not like [x]"
9. "I just wear what I want"
8. "Fuck it"
7. "Punk is/isn't dead [depending on current vogue]"
6. "I don't give a fuck which chord I'm playing"
5. "We're bringing punk into the [insert time period]"
4. "We just got bored of so many lame bands"
3. "No way were [x] punk!"
2. "[arbitrary pre-70s figure] was the first punk"
1. "We don't give a fuck what anyone else thinks"

You forgot 'vote labour'.

Glice 07.03.2008 05:07 PM

See? I'm perpetuating the fun of lists by ommiting obvious things, and having controversial entries. Yeah. That is exactly what I'm doing.

Have you been telling tales again Melly?

MellySingsDoom 07.03.2008 05:34 PM

Nah, just getting confused again. You know how senile I am, don't you Boris?

I may well be going to a karaoke bar in Brighton on Saturday. If the bar has any Glitter, I'm getting on the case bigtime.
