Genie Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 On Saturday i'll be the proud owner of a dishwasher for the first time in my life. Never really seen the appeal as it possible to wash up the dishes from a dinner for 4 in about 15 minutes. But saw one on offer so thought we'd get one.

One of the pre requisites of being allowed into the middle class gang. Will u soon be having a larf and a barth too? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 We have a dishwasher, don't use it but have to put it on once a week to clean it. The manual dishwasher wonders why his wife does this and why we dont just bin the thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 From Stereogum Quote Yoko Ono References Old Simpsons Joke About Her In Art Exhibit Gabriela Tully Claymore @gabrielajunetc | 10:20 am EMAIL SHARE TWEET PIN IT REDDIT Way back in 1993, The Simpsons opened its fifth season with an episode titled “Homer’s Barbershop Quartet.” In the episode, Homer Simpson starts a band called the Be Sharps with Barney, Apu, and Principle Skinner. The band’s trajectory vaguely follows that of the Beatles, and they even name their sophomore album Bigger Than Jesus, in reference to a comment John Lennon made about his own band way back in the day. Barney eventually starts dating a Yoko Ono-esque woman, who orders “a single plum floating in perfume served in a man’s hat” at Moe’s Tavern. And now, over two decades later, Ono has referenced the joke at an exhibition at the Reykjavik Art Museum. The artist curated the exhibit, which is titled “Yoko Ono: One More Story…,” and it features her own work as well as the work of several other artists. The Icelandic performance artist Ragnar Kjartansson contributed a literal “single plum, floating in perfume, served in a man’s hat” to the show. You can check out photos of the piece and watch the original Simpsons clip below. Follow The Future Heart 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HanoiVillan Posted October 27, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted October 27, 2016 In my own wedding this year, it was agreed that the bride's parents pay everything, and further that we would get married wherever that budget carried us, so we got married in the community centre hall of their old people's lifestyle community in rural Canada (cost of hall rental - nothing). We spent the two days before the ceremony, both families, decorating the hall ourselves, and we eventually got married standing between the shuffleboard markings. Of course it sounds ridiculous, but nowhere near as ridiculous as spending £24k on a wedding. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it sounds ridiculous, but nowhere near as ridiculous as spending £24k on a wedding. That actually doesn't sound ridiculous at all. Sounds amazing, and totally unique too. In terms of expense on a wedding, it's all relative isn't it? We spent a big lump on our wedding, and I don't regret it at all. We were in a position to do so, and so we did. It was only 50 people, and we had it in Santorini. We didn't think we'd ever get those 50 people together in the same place again, and we wanted to have a huge celebration. We even brought a film crew over from London to make a music video of the footage. It was amazing, and the video still gives me goosebumps now. If I hadn't spent it on a wedding I'd have spent it on shit like cars and clothes anyway... And I've never got goosebumps from looking at a pair of jeans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
