I can't help feel the radiohead bashing is a bit harsh. Im a huge fan but i can understand that some people don't like it. However if you compare it to 90% of the music of today and the last decade it is far better unless your into autotune and shitty commercialised bands.

Radiohead tried to go in a different direction to what was happening in the music industry and that in itself is something that should be applauded and encouraged.

Then again i'm an Oxfordian so slightly biased...

Thom Yorke wrote the plays of Shakespere?

Anyhow my brother just used the term "yoghurt knitter" in a conversation on the telephone with a friend of his , i'd be fairly confident he's picked that up through me so it would appear VT has entered another phrase into the mainstream :-)

A few of these suggestions I wouldn't really consider to be a 'meme', more 'something funny that happened on Villa Talk once'.

A meme has to be more of a running ‘in joke’ doesn't it?

You might be right.

I blame Delaney.

In fairness to Eames, though I know what wotsisface looks like, I've got no idea who the current crop of actors and actresses are. Yesterday someone at work was chatting about a bloke called Faesbender(?) - not a clue here, couldn't give a monkey's either.

Scuba Steve and Delap were hilarious and I was honoured to be a participant/watcher in both those. And the Thom Yorke one.

What about Dom's random Rogues Gallery pics? Leemond's rants? And of course Andy Keenan's weekend fixture threads.
