A joke now and then won't hurt and repetition is rather important in music but in jokes it doesn't allways work. Except maybe for that little hitlerclip i keep laughing about.
I come here probably once a week or every other week just to check of there's something in the pipeline and in fact to check if there's a sign of a pipeline at all. That makes an average of 30 times 2 to 3 minutes per year which equals an hour and a half. In the last hour and a half on twoism I probably did a post or four, so I'm starting to be proud on my selfesteem and social ability netwise. Allthough I'm still not ready for facebook yet and my-myspace got kinda dusty. Huray for ppl that like boc. Maybe we stopped hoping to go to heaven but at least we still hope for another record. Somebody slap me now, the good weather is killing me.

not to mention that "new b0c album" is about the most trite joke there is in this community.

that was ridiculous.
To be fair to the guy, he's held his hands up and admitted it. Like I said, sometimes things can be taken too seriously. I don't think any harm was meant. Onwards...
what do you mean he admitted it? people figured it out the day he posted the thread. he claimed that he was "convinced not to go through with it", but the real reason he deleted the thread was probably shame.

You could be right. But when he was asked in the follow-up thread why it was deleted, rather than just delete the thread again he posted an honest reply and admitted it had been a joke. For what it's worth I think he deserves a little credit for giving an honest answer.

I'm not defending the joke - I have mixed views on it and I called him out at the time - I just don't think he is guilty of anything other than a dodgy taste in April Fools prank. :wink:

Off topic, but is that Good Records in your pic?
That's the cover from DJ Shadow's Endtroducing lp isn't it ?

Quality lp !
The very same. Easily one of favorite records of all time.[/quote]

I saw that in a record store the other day and I was like "Hey, that's a guy on twoism's avatar!"

I don't know the first thing about Joyrex but he ain't the devil, we get fake BoC announcements all the time, and those ones aren't even jokes, they're just dumb. All this stunt deserves is a :roll:

nevermind WATMM anyway. just because some of them are fixated on this forum for whatever reason doesn't mean we have to reciprocate.

22/09/09 will be my next birthdate, so if nothing happens we can still have an excuse to party and cheer with abundant and different types of beverages :).

Im sure once they release another album this part of the forum will be busy again! I loved when the campfire headphase came out... everyone was soooo excited! Can't wait for it again.

when boc busts out the new shit we'll all be partying. the mood in here will become ecstatic even if our expectations are frustrated by the final product. till then let us simply turn out noses up at this hype and silliness.
