  • @Mykx Wait, WHAT? I thought Tim Simenon was off battling aliens in Alpha Centauri! in reply to Mykx #
  • Playing catchup, is what it is… #
  • @RichMOMB …You're not alone! We ALL get nervous before you record a #MOMBcast. ;) in reply to RichMOMB #
  • HAHA! @rolhirst & @sulman servicing the undersubscribed school of Happy Mondays gags. They are silly! #
  • @Mykx The stuff on the Bomb The Bass site is niiiiice… in reply to Mykx #
  • @jamiesmart I hear that, sir. Burnout Revenge was my game of choice… in reply to jamiesmart #
  • @sispurrier Did you see this? V. basic animation, but the script raised some chuckles: http://is.gd/6iZqC in reply to sispurrier #
  • Oh, fuck. Just had a very annoying phone call from our solicitor. Essentially, banks are stupid. #
  • @Butwin It's only really @RichMOMB who can't handle it. He is weak. WEAK, I TELL YOU! in reply to Butwin #
  • @Mykx Megablast! And also Bug Powder Dust… in reply to Mykx #
  • @rolhirst Heh… That's a familiar feeling… in reply to rolhirst #
  • @nicktheowl Oh, yeah… that's pretty awesome stuffs. in reply to nicktheowl #
  • @Butwin Oh, now that would be spanky! in reply to Butwin #
  • @CollingsA I can only wonder what people could have said to Mr Lee! in reply to CollingsA #
  • @CollingsA …Someone following him, with low emotional intelligence, might think calling him a cunt would be chummy & appreciated. in reply to CollingsA #
  • @Butwin …It's the LA Times, isn't it? in reply to Butwin #
  • @Butwin Uh… Uh… OH MY GOD. That would be TOTALLY AWESOME. in reply to Butwin #
  • @Mykx Heh… I really liked… the track he did with Will Self on it? in reply to Mykx #
  • @Butwin Oh, that's a good point. @JaneMOMB could KICK their pasty orange LA ARSES. She's mean… in reply to Butwin #
  • Incredible. Because the sale didn't go through last year, we had to pay stamp duty. #
  • …The agent managed to get the other people on the chain together, & raised half of the stamp-duty from them… #
  • …Which the solicitor then had to report to the Mortgage lender… #
  • …The Mortgage Lender then said "fine, they can get £800 donated toward SD, but we'll take it off the amount we're lending." #
  • To clarify, we get NO money off the price of the house. The donations are to help with the Stamp Duty, which is essentially extra tax… #
  • …Whereas the lender, in theory, is lending us money against the value of the house, not the amount we're paying overall for the purchase. #
  • @rolhirst It boggles the fucking mind, doesn't it? in reply to rolhirst #
  • @Butwin Cake! Oh my god, this is like some beautiful dream! Are you getting this, @JamesMOMB @JaneMOMB @RichMOMB? CAKE! in reply to Butwin #
  • @sispurrier I tend to get sleepy over the whole atheism=science vs fundamentalist Christians=Christians thing, but Creationists? Fuck them! in reply to sispurrier #
  • @JamesMOMB I KNOW! (Also, there's some talk of a live, in person Interview! @butwin is AWESOME, isn't he?) in reply to JamesMOMB #
  • @georgelondon Agent suggested banks are trying to slim their lending by any means necessary…both agent & solicitor said they saw no logic. in reply to georgelondon #
  • @georgelondon Apparently the solicitor works on behalf of the lender, so they're legally obliged to mention that shit. in reply to georgelondon #
  • @georgelondon No, I… look, I don't fucking know. None of it makes logical sense. in reply to georgelondon #
  • @belle_lulu Heh… tweeting about it on twitter possibly isn't keeping one's head down all THAT far, but yeah, prob'ly wise! in reply to belle_lulu #
  • @belle_lulu …This poop plays out bloody everywhere, doesn't it? in reply to belle_lulu #
  • @georgelondon Well, it isn't ideal, obviously, but I've been kind of resigned to paying the Stamp Duty since it didn't happen on time. in reply to georgelondon #
  • Lots wrong with this article. Seems to say more about the writer than the subject. But it's interesting enough reading: http://is.gd/6jaWX #
  • It's called Why Men Use Prostitutes. Interestingly, it doesn't really answer the question AT ALL. But thinks it does. http://is.gd/6jaWX #
  • @Sulman @SamShepherd Stamp duty was ALWAYS coming out of our pocket. Well, truth is, it wasn't supposed to be coming out of anyones! #
  • @georgelondon You thinking: "Bank Tells Local Couple Told – Would You Kindly Bend Over & Brace Yourselves?" in reply to georgelondon #
  • @TeeshMgray The writer might, despite her "balanced" tone, be leading the reader somewhat there. Most men, worth saying, not like that! in reply to TeeshMgray #
  • @SamShepherd No, it's gone through the solicitor. We COULD go to HSBC and ask them, but it's been hard enough getting hold of them normally! in reply to SamShepherd #
  • @rolhirst I find THAT quite hard to believe! ;) in reply to rolhirst #
  • @Eamon_ That link to the #MOMBcast I was talking about: http://is.gd/5LWa9. I recommend starting at the Review of 2009, for clarity! #
  • @rolhirst …@Sulman took the words right out of my mouth. But it was to the one about rain! in reply to rolhirst #
  • @georgelondon @SamShepherd The problem with getting in touch with the bank is that a) they aren't easy to get hold of &… #
  • @georgelondon @SamShepherd …b) any changes to the mortgage will potentially trigger need for new application, & there isn't time. #
  • @SamShepherd Over fucking carpets! That's ridiculous…! in reply to SamShepherd #
  • @Chris_TOMP Me too. It's awfully backward. Unless… in reply to Chris_TOMP #
  • @rolhirst It was more the idea that you had never been that happy to see the rain before. I was making a joke. It may have not been funny! in reply to rolhirst #
  • @rolhirst Like I said, I suspect the moment has passed. I was suggesting that you might be a grump of some description. I regret it now. :( in reply to rolhirst #
  • @georgelondon Yeah, I think they do, really. If we had more time, we could argue harder. in reply to georgelondon #
  • "I concluded from this that it’s not feminists such as Andrea Dworkin and myself who are responsible for…" http://tumblr.com/xi55jycee #
  • @mrchrisaddison You SAY that, but I bet you were secretly REALLY PROUD of yourself. Tut. Comedians. in reply to mrchrisaddison #
  • @BeaucoupKevin That is an oucher, but you know, you do have a relatively long Twitter-Name, & you Tweet such interesting, long stuff! in reply to BeaucoupKevin #
  • @BeaucoupKevin Dammit! You're talking new-school Retweets, aren't you? I'm still old-school Tweetdeck RTs… in reply to BeaucoupKevin #
  • @BeaucoupKevin …God, now I feel a peculiar mixture of idiotic & indignant! in reply to BeaucoupKevin #
  • #MOMBcomics 17 – Doing this on a tight time budget. May have to cut the 2 hours down to an hour and a half… #
  • #MOMBcomics 17, @JamesMOMB didn't even make it out of the intro without fucking up. God, I really just am the best thing about it. #
  • Oh, no, hang on. @JaneMOMB is the best thing about it. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • No, no, hang on… we're ALL the best thing about #MOMBcast… Except me! #
  • Ha… It takes @RichMOMB less than 2 minutes to draw attention to something ridiculous that we've just totally got used to. #MOMBcast #
  • We finally establish an acceptable level of General Hospital Xenophobia. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • #MOMBcast 17: The only Southampton-based comic podcast featuring contributions from the undead. #
  • …And fucking Christ, @JamesMOMB, that thing about Jon writing articles in the past could have been really good. Torpedo! #MOMBcast #
  • Ha! HAHA! @JamesMOMB is hilarious! HA! Lost is the new John Peel! #MOMBcast #
  • We love Snoop Dog on the #MOMBcast. Brings back some naughty memories for me. Fo sho. #MOMBcast 17's inner pimp. #
  • I always end up right. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • @JamesMOMB Well, no. True. You were on fire with the Lost thing, btw. in reply to JamesMOMB #
  • @ScruffyPanther That tweet confused me! Was it that I mentioned Snoop Dogg, or that I got his name wrong? He's my era, is what it is. in reply to ScruffyPanther #
  • BSG: "It's not Star Wars, is it?" @RichMOMB WAT? #MOMBcast 17 #
  • @Chris_TOMP Your mind on your monkey? in reply to Chris_TOMP #
  • …I can't actually believe I hadn't ever told these guys my theory about Lord Of The Rings. Everyone else has heard it. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • I'd say we're DEFINITELY the only comic podcast talking about Last Of The Summer Wine this week. #MOMBcast #
  • That comment about Southerners & Northerners was made from the arch point of view of a midlander, btw. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • @belle_lulu Oh, hang on. So Gollum is Compo as well as Frodo being Compo. Good point. in reply to belle_lulu #
  • Die Hard: Year One review by @RichMOMB. Hm. Sounds a bit blah. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • Honest to god, we AREN'T sponsored by FP. WE JUST AREN'T, okay? #MOMBcast #
  • Daytripper #2, by the way, is a major awesome comic out this week. Really good, weird stuff. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • @Sulman That it's basically the same as… are you mocking me? in reply to Sulman #
  • Hm. @JaneMOMB picked up a trooper in Starbucks? #MOMBcast 17 #
  • @JamesMOMB Heh, you as well, huh? in reply to JamesMOMB #
  • Oh god… Proper giggles at 29 minute mark… #MOMBcast 17 #
  • YAY! @JamesMOMB joke imminent! And there it was! #MOMBcast 17 #
  • If you do buy a comic with the name Jennifer Love Hewitt on the cover, you do deserve everything you get. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • @Sulman I… if I talk to you before you hear #MOMBcast 17, I will explain all… It's not really worth the time… in reply to Sulman #
  • Hm. Me questioning @JaneMOMB about whether or not she likes breasts sounds a little more… creepy, out loud. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • "Why does it always get stupid when it comes to me?" – @JaneMOMB #MOMBcast 17 #
  • Is that right? Was Doctor Strange actually an alcoholic? #
  • Everyone sniff Weekly World News #1! Trust me! #MOMBcast 17 #
  • @JamesMOMB what the fuck was your second comic? #
  • God, I love Arthur Ranson. A lot. All over #MOMBcast 17 at the 1:16 point. Also, we didn't let @RichMOMB have a break, really publicly… #
  • …are we bad people? #MOMBcast 17 (The answer, of course, is No. We are fucking awesome.) #
  • Mmm… cornflake cakes. From Greggs. You can hardly hear it, but @RichMOMB still started shouting over us! Yay! #MOMBcast 17 #
  • I STILL think it was a good idea to have the cakes on #MOMBcast. They were a pod thing. It was more emotionally than practically disruptive! #
  • "…In 1979, no-one died. In 1980, some-one died. In 1981, no-one died. In 1982, there was the incident with the pigeon…" #MOMBcast 17 #
  • http://is.gd/6jZ8X – A bit of classic Coogan for you to enjoy! #
  • I lost my temper about the Marvel stripped cover thing via e-mail yesterday. Then again on #MOMBcast 17. Predictable. #
  • Hm. Deep Purple, late 80s, Birmingham NEC? #first gig. Or more properly, Levellers or All About Eve at Nottingham Rock City, late 80s. #
  • Hm. Lists always SEEM like a good idea when we do them on the #MOMBcast. They always end up sounding like lists when we do them, though. #
  • We talk about the exciting 45 one-shot at 1:35 point, #MOMBcast 17. @butwin rocks! #
  • Heh. If you're one of our listeners, and I didn't name you at the 1:37 mark on #MOMBcast 17, get in touch! #
  • Listening to me getting all upset and apologetic is making me all upset. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • I hope @butwin does end up using one of @JamesMOMB's quotes on some of the promotional stuff for 45. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • Come on, LA Times! We will kick your arses! #MOMBcast #
  • Siege chat now! We like Siege on the #MOMBcast, Mr @BrianMBendis! #
  • RT @alydenisof: It occurred to me this morning, as I was pumping my milk whilst reading Twitter, my life would seem odd to the Amish. #
  • Overheard: MOMBcast 17 – James can't know EVERYTHING – @JamesMOMB: I can't know EVERYTHING, Nick. @nixsight:… http://tumblr.com/xi55k12uc #
  • #MOMBcast 17 – @JamesMOMB was getting Phil Sheldon mixed up with Ben Urich. To be fair, an easy enough mistake-a to make-a. #
  • Oh, man… @RichMOMB has put me RIGHT OFF The Siege. Balls. Can't I have just ONE GOOD THING in my life??? #MOMBcast 17 #
  • @feliciaday That was a little bit too funny, wasn't it? in reply to feliciaday #
  • Now that I listen back to this, I realise that my predictions about The Siege probably AREN'T going to come true. #MOMBcast 17 #
  • Heh. The Thor family. I'd totally forgotten about that. LOLS. #MOMBcast 17 – @JamesMOMB is the best of us all. #
  • I really wish I wasn't still giggly from the bit @JaneMOMB & @JamesMOMB said before when I started talking about 911. #MOMBCast 17 #
  • By the end of the day, after listening to 2 #MOMBcasts & recording #17, I really didn't know WHAT the fuck was going on. #
  • @andydiggle @sispurrier But what if that little old lady grows up to be HITLER? in reply to andydiggle #
  • Hm. I didn't sing on this #MOMBcast. Phew! #
  • SECRET ASIAN! #MOMBCAST! #
