I hate them
Sorry.
But I do.
NEVER say sorry about hating the wombats
You hear me?! NEVER!
I know I know
Hate is such a strong word.
But so necessary in this case!
Yuck! get it off us! errrrrugh!
A subway? IN NEW YORK?!
I'm so going to love this band now.
Sorry I didn't hear you...
Did you say JAG out their JAG from a JAG JAG JAGJAG.
Filth.
Just curious
any reason why the majority of people seem to hate them on DiS?
Because they're not very good.
for some reason I find them annoying
i think
you need to be "pissed" on red bull to like them
You need to be in a coma to like them!
.
I think your onto somat there
maybe its like the oposite to the DJ Screw thing where they drink cough syrup with codeain in it mixed with lemonade and slow down all the records into a sludge.
Also
of a band/label has gone to the extent of employing a fucking giblet like CCool1 (aka Creative Cultures viral marketing agency) to sit on this messageboard and spew out the most mind-numbingly shit JAGs then I'm gonna go ahead and assume they're terrible.
Seriously, 26 posts of sheer PR. Why don't you fuck off?
^
heh heh
they are catchy though arent they
i wouldnt buy their albums but i dont see how you can hate a band for being catchy
Catchy?
What like the ebola virus catchy?
I hate smallpox because it is catchy
And I hate the Wombats in the same way.
I wish The Wombats
would go the same way as smallpox...
We should get onto the UN about it
Some kind of international programme of mass inoculation. There are children in Africa who have never heard the Wombats. We need to make sure they never do.
Aren't the punishments severe
for crimes against humanity?
We should look into this.
I used to love wombats
They were my favourite of all the animals.
Now I can't even look at them without hearing that STUPID FUCKING SONG IN THAT STUPID FUCKING VOICE WHY CAN'T I JUST DIE IT WOULD BE EASIER NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NONONONONONONONONONO.
Bastards. I've had to promote the platypus.
So do you think we could also make the case
that the music made by The Wombats may endanger real-life wombats? It certainly won't promote their conservation...
I will look into
CITIES http://www.ukcites.gov.uk/default.asp they might have a bad indie section.
I know someone
who works in the 'Waste Department'
wicked
I think we could be onto a lead.
Absolutely
So that's the UN and the RSPCA. Excellent.
Now. Has anyone heard The Wombats say anything blasphemous? Could we argue their very existence is an affront to God? Because I reckon if we can get the Pope onside we'll be unstoppable.
Yes
ok I haven't but I think we could argue that their actual existence is the work of the devil and therefore a crime against God.
Excellent
Does anybody have a lot of pitchforks, scythes, and flaming torches? I feel some mob justice coming on.
Oooh I've always wanted to be part of a mob
Brilliant!
I'm in.
I have a spade?
Spade is good, spade is good ...
Thinking about my inadequate stock of garden implements, I may be reduced to dampening their hair using a novelty watering-can.
But I'm going to mean it! There's no sight more pitiful than a soggy Wombat.
Mob, form!
"We're going on a Wombat hunt!"
This is the only Pitchfork I've got
http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/ but I think I have a little garden trowl and some cane.
The more the merrier!
Let's hunt Wombat.
Amazing!
Wet hair for Indie boys is worse than make-up remover for Goths.
I say we douse them and then hit them over the heads with the spade and garden gnome.
That'll teach 'em!
Yay!
Oh I feel all warm inside
Knowing there are people who hate The Wombats as much as I do.
We should form some kind of support group
The Wombats Are Terrible?
The initials would mean we'd have to walk around with badges on reading: TWAT. Maybe not a good idea.
The Wombats Ate My Baby, or TWAMB. That'll do.
The Wombats Ate My Baby!
I love it!
A Facebook group should probably happen
Anybody else want to join TWAMB? Entry is free, and you get a warm glow of satisfaction that the world is a better place now that you hate the Wombats in company.
Right where do I sign up?
.
Can't get on Facebook until this evening - stupid work computers
If you can set it up before then, please do! Otherwise I'll do it later.
I want badges too. Lots of lovely badges.
Oh for definite.
Can't have a group without badges.
And I too am at work - the MD sits behind me. Don't want to risk a Wombat type dousing!
So let me know the link and I will be there!
Your MD has a watering can?
You should get onto your union about that.
Will do!
Evian Water
Large bottles.
Deadly.
Shudder
I fear Evian. Ever since that terrifying advert with the Beach Boys song and the babies doing synchronised swimming.
They haunt my dreams.
I know!
And all the babies were Eunuchs and missing their 'bits'
Disturbing! Seriously disturbing!
Platypus RULE!
Or perhaps Dingos...
They've had a really bad rap over the years, what with eating babies and the such. I think they deserve another chance!
Eating babies > The Wombats
True fact.
^
I listened to their album the other day because someone left it in my car. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting.
Was it a vengful ex
and was she/he trying to kill you?
haha
feel the visceral cuntitude of the spammer's company:
http://www.creativecultures.biz/creativecultures.html
Good grief - The World's a better place for THEM existing. ahem.
They sound great don't they?
I assume that the original post counts as one of their 'truly captiviting, inspiring and exciting content solutions'.
And I really hate the way the word 'leverage' gets used in these kind of things.
As discussed above ...
The Wombats Ate My Baby!
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=12389619023
I'm in
:)
Joined,
I can't stand that band.
Bumpity-bump!
For daytime Wombat haters.
And a joke: What's a wombat for? Playing wom.
