Re: Gary Glitter
 

Usually 2 word phrase where the second word rhymes with the item in question. Usually (not always) you use the first word to denote the message

eg

2 word phrases:

Brad Pitt = Sh1t ('I'm having a Brad')
Richard the Third = turd ('I'm having a Richard')


Sometimes the full phrase is used, as just the start doesn't scan, eg:

jam jar = car
tea leaf = thief

here's a link to start you off:

The most common one in London at the moment, I'd imagine is 'it's taters!'

taters = potatoes

potatoes in the mold = cold!!!

vava may confirm if he's hearing this!

Gary Glitter who has that song rock and roll part 2. It's the one they play at football games and stuff where everyone yells hey. Possibly facing a firing sqad in vietnam for shacking up with a 15 year old. He's 61.

Funny, I was thinking last week that Bob Kraft (and Myra or whatever her name is), and all their "we don't take players that we deem 'bad'" bullsh*t will not affect the fact that they will play that song 20 times every game, regardless of the fact that that guy has been a NAMBLA boy-lover since forever.

Hypocritical? I think so..

There are very few sporting venues that don't use this song. I think you're singling out the Krafts unnecessarily here.

Why is he the "scum of the earth"? Aren't those girls teen prostitutes?

[/ QUOTE ]

Erm.....he was found with over 35,000 pictures on his pc of children and babies being raped, molested etc etc.....Sorry but "Scum Of The Earth" is going easy on him...

[/ QUOTE ]

And how did they catch him? He took his PC to PC World because it was broken and said "er..don't look on the hard disk, there's private stuff on there." So naturally the employee had a look and duly called the police.

Hopefully facing a firing sqad in vietnam for cursing sports fans for decades with that annoying song.

I was already to the point of screaming, "Do they have to play this song at EVERY sporting event???"

Now I won't be able to hear it without thinking he's a scumbag, as well.

I have to laugh about this song - I can't believe they play Gary Glitter songs in the US at sports games. Don't you guys sing songs during games? We have some corkers here.

One of my favourites is a perennial, directed at referees (who dress in black at foopball games).

"Who's the b'std, who's the b'std, who's the b'std in the black?!!!!
Whoooooo's the b'std in the black?"
(okay, this is more of a chant than a song)

My own personal favourite was when I supported Wimbledon (Vinny Jones used to play for them, as a cultural reference for you colonials), which was actually to the tune of Garry Glitter's 'Good to be Back!'

It went:
'Alloooo,
Allloooo,
Womble Aggro, Womble Aggro'

over and over and over again.

We'd also sing assorted Womble songs, 'SuperWomble', 'Remember you're a Womble' and so on.

Re: If Gary Glitter was a woman?
 

I just saw today where the woman who had sex with the little kid got off basicly scott free today. Gary Glitter should be hanged, but there is a sick double standard and if Glitter was a woman he would get away with it. Our justice system doesn't seem to have any problem with women molesting little boys.

Re: If Gary Glitter was a woman?
 

He was on his way to a flight to Bangkok when they arrested him.

Coincedence? I think not.....
