PROTEST OF THE WEEK SO FAR
A member of a group called "Plane Stupid" tried to glue himself to the British prime minister.
Key Quote: But Downing Street said there had been "no stickiness of any significance". (Also known as "the Bill Clinton defense.")
(Thanks to DavCat and Siouxie)
Voluntarily keeping superglue in your underwear? Plane stupid is right.

"He was just grinning about it. He didn't seem to take me seriously."
And neither does anyone else with an IQ above room termperature.

Remember when Clinton raised his finger and said, "I did not have sexual relatons with that woman...don't taze me bro."

Does this remind anyone else about the Season 2 finale from 24?

"After the incident Mr Glass was allowed to stay Number 10 for 40 minutes."

I guess the sticker found himself in a bit of a sticky wicket. And PM Brown would, in legal parlance, be the stickee.

It all started when he said "Hey guys! Watch this!"

"All right! What's all this? Put your hands against the wall!"
"Yes, sir."
*Protective Services agent produces handcuffs*
"Now give me your left hand."
"I can't."
"Why not?"
"It's glued to the wall."
*Agent produces Taser™*
"Ok, Smartass. We tried the easy way"

Krazy Glue. A thousand and one uses. Now, a thousand and two.

The Prisoner was the kind of show that after the episode ended, you had to sit there for a while and think "what the hell happened?" Especially the very last episode. But it was a great series.

Jeez, Braniff, do we have to spell it out for you?
Posted by: Number Six | July 23, 2008 at 01:07 PM
Braniff, that's how I felt about Twin Peaks.
Posted by: Siouxie | July 23, 2008 at 01:15 PM
Thanks for the laugh.

"I didn't have much glue left by that point," he said.
You need a bigger storage area ... oh wait! You glued THAT shut TOO?

I want to protest the objectification of women in Hollywood. I will get my message out there by gluing myself to Salma Hayek. I'm selfless like that.

Is he mad? He could have had the skin ripped off his hand. Oh wait. He did, and he probably is.
