Permanently Bewildered19 Jun 2009 02:35 pm
By Nelson

Thanks to John for this one from the “Points of View” messageboard. I can’t believe I didn’t know it existed.

Does this woman imagine that the only reason there are no centaurs around is because nobody’s fucking their horse these days?

I’ve been thinking about this and finally decided I MUST express my feelings on the ‘personal remarks’ Dr Alice Roberts made about Neanderthals in ‘The Incredible Journey – Europe’, first broadcast on 24th May and repeated in the early hours of yesterday morning.

Had she been making the comments about people of a different ethnic background to herself, they could have been regarded as racist.

I refer to how, when she was talking about the idea of Neanderthals and ‘modern’ humans interbreeding, she looked at a reconstruction of a head, depicting how a Neanderthal might have appeared, pulled a face, shook her head and dismissed the idea completely – “No, I don’t think so”, or something close to that, was her comment.

She also made disparaging remarks about how far apart their eyes were (no further apart than mine and other people’s from what I could see!) and other features.

Many so-called modern Europeans, myself included, possess various Neanderthal-like features to a greater or lesser degree and I felt she was, in turn, insulting those of us who have them by making these comments.

    I can’t understand why we’re meant to be mocking this post. I too have a head, torso, limbs, skin, hair and facial features – just like the Neanderthals did! Which makes any disparaging comments about their appearance WORSE THAN THE FINAL SOLUTION.

    Kudos to thecats’mother for getting her Neanderthal brain around how to work a computer. Next stop, learning how to punctuate. Or how not to be a mental.

  6. on 19 Jun 2009 at 3:12 pm outragedofbelmarsh

    As a spokesperson for the Neanderthal Anti-Defamation league, I would like to take this opportunity to disassociate ourselves from thecats’mother’s claims of neanderthal inheritance.
    We get enough bad press as it is, without being bracketed with BBC HYS’ers.

    Alice Roberts is an Osteologist. She knows a crappy facial reconstruction when she sees one.

    I went out with a guy once who had really Neanderthal features and his nickname was Lion-O (because that’s who he looked like). Although he was really good-looking, however improbable that sounds*.

    Does this prove that Thundercats are the missing link between Neanderthals and modern humans? How cool would that be?!

    *I might not be the best judge of male beauty. The Young Fella looks like Shaggy out of Scooby Doo**.
    **I’ve just realised that I only go out with men who look like cult cartoon characters.

    Your sort of attitude is why I hesitated posting; why is it that people find it acceptable to make fun of Neanderthals? (I know I’ll regret asking that!!!)

    And yes, I was angry that she made remarks like that about members of the human race. It’s known as standing up for the underdog.

    They’re all dead, Alice. Gone the way of the Dodo, but I see you don’t speak up for them.

    That’s avaianistism in my book.

  12. on 19 Jun 2009 at 3:54 pm Digger

    Thus, we have established four things.

    1) That thecats’mother is a monumental idiot with far too much time on her hands. (Yes, yes, I appreciate the irony.)

    2) That thecats’mother probably isn’t blessed with pulchritude in the commonly accepted conventional sense. It’s likely that she possesses a heavy jaw, thick and low brow ridge and wiry hair. She has also, evidently, given birth to a cat and is a) a genetic freak b) a witch who has consorted with the devil or c) intimately acquainted with her pet feline.

    3) A Bit Special prefers her menfolk to be two-dimensional and cel-shaded.

    4) Dr Alice Roberts has fairly high standards when it comes to appreciating the male form.

    Out. Of. My. League.

    On the plus side, my rodent like features, enormous ears and tendancy to hang around with ducks with severe speech impediments may mean I’m in with a crack at Ms Special if Shaggy messes up.

    That or you are breaking up a happy home and you should be ashamed. Shame.

  15. on 19 Jun 2009 at 4:27 pm Dr Feelgood

    I’m excited by the fact that at least Dr Alice Roberts has excluded selecting one of another (extinct) species for breeding purposes. My chances have gone up ever soooo slightly.

  16. on 19 Jun 2009 at 5:05 pm Alex

    Personally, I reckon thecatsmother is just fucking ugly and unhappy about that; the thought of neanderthal inbreeding made her feel better, until ALICE ROBERTS RUINED IT, LIKE OMG, WHAT A BITCH

  17. on 19 Jun 2009 at 5:15 pm Ug

    I don’t see the problem; I’m a neandethal and I’d fuck Alice Roberts.

    @Manly – sorry, but I’m not this Rebecca you speak of (nor is TYF called Sandy). But clearly Shaggy is a look women really go for. Much hilarity was had last weekend when The Young Fella put on a v-neck green t-shirt and some scruffy brown trousers without thinking.

    @Throbbe – sorry, but I prefer my men to at least resemble human characters. I’ve got to have SOME standards! Though I appreciate your respectful usage of ‘Ms’.

    thecats’mother could be male – he/she could’ve just thought it was hilarious to choose a name based on a dreary saying.

    Wish someone would make a tv show where HYS mentals and their ilk could voice their bonkers grievances and hurts to the experts who have so crossed them and then fight it out to get ‘closure’. But make it light-hearted, like ‘It’s a Knockout’. Stuart Hall is still alive and available for work. DO YOU HEAR ME, BBC EXECS? MAKE IT SO!

    So what happened in the Euro elections in Albert Square? It used to be NuLaber territory with all the people holding professional jobs or going off to “uni” being ethnic minority folk. But I wonder if the white working class characters have noticed they’re all thick and useless and never get to mention Einstein or Shakespeare or to move up in society, and certainly never go to “uni”, and might be turning to the bnp! What were the results? We have a right to be told!

    I was in the pub last week and a group of lads were sitting by the fireplace in the saloon bar, pointing at a magazine and laughing. I was intrigued so I sidled over (I chose not to saunter on this occassion) and found that they were mocking a reconstruction of a female homo habilis in a Geographical publication.

    I hope society isn’t developing a nasty trait of mocking the sexuality of our antecendants.

    Neanderthaals have been commonly regarded to be a different sub-species, not a different species, from modern humans. The centaur comment is pretty stupid. We don’t know if cro-magnon man and Neanderthaal man were interfertile, but there are at least as many biologists who think they might have been as who think they probably weren’t. It’s not remotely comparable to humans and horses.

  35. on 22 Jun 2009 at 10:47 am Digger

    What? In that you were hastily tacked onto a failing franchise as a last ditch, and largely futile, attempt to stay “down with the kids”.

    Or is Shaggy being ungallant and comparing your looks to that of a minature Great Dane?

    Or is it just that you have a really massive head and a tiny body?

    Your worried public need to know.

  36. on 22 Jun 2009 at 12:42 pm Bit Special

    @Digger – none of those things (I hope), but because I am really small but arsey. Just as everyone found Scrappy-Doo’s battle-ready tenacity merely adorable instead of taking it seriously, the world metaphorically – and sometimes literally – pats me on the head for being a girly-looking titch*, ignoring the reality of my dour, sneering, bad-tempered misanthropy (undoubtedly the result of the former). Grrrrr. Lemme at ‘em… Lemme at ‘em!

    *I also have a girlishly high-pitched voice. When I’m hassling jobsworths about shit over the phone (one of my favourite pastimes), I am perpetually asked ‘Can I speak to your Dad?’. FUME.

    I give you a debate on ballet from Sky.

    ————————–

    For ballet ever to reach it’s true heights of popularity, it should be performed in complete freedom as nature intended ( unclothed ) where one can truely appreciate movement, the utter beauty, the wonder of the human form. Yet even attempting such freedom of expression would have the christian brigade out in the streets in tens of thousands, waving their banners crying (CHILD ABUSE). Centuries of christian teaching, that all are the product of sin, the flesh be evil, such halfbaked nonsense in having brought great a burden upon humanity, where beauty taught / portrayed being evil.

    @Rotwatcher – by ‘Just as everyone found Scrappy-Doo’s battle-ready tenacity merely adorable’ I meant that within the cartoon itself other characters didn’t take him seriously and lovingly patronised him (as far as I can remember). The character of Scrappy-Doo was indeed a desperate shark-jumping addition to the gang and an all-round twat.

    Unlike me (hopefully). It’s just a joke implying I am a bad-tempered short-arse, ’tis all.

Perhaps this is because the usual idiots who post on HYS can’t find a way to crowbar in their usual gripes about ZA NU-LIARBORE, or their new favourite stock comment: “If this had happened in Iran we would be up in arms, but we allow it to happen here without complaint”

    Okay, I lied. I couldn’t resist it. And to counter HissyFit’s claim that there is no way the HYS lot could get Iran/NuLiarBore in, I give you:

    I don’t care. And I don’t care for the re-writing of history that is taking place here. He hasn’t made a good record since “Off The Wall” and the title of ‘King of Pop’ was one he gave himself during an album marketingyscheme. He is as prime example of what can go wrong in the fantasy world of showbiz, what is even more disturbing is the number of people on this message board who seem to have bought into all the self-righteous messianic nonsense. Meanwhile in Iran real heroes are on the streets

    He’s referring to “The Butcher of Beirut”, now recast as a “moderate democrat”. His involvement in the destruction of the US Marine barracks during the Lebanese civil war is not to be mentioned. Michael Jackson was going to write a song about this….

    I feel slightly ashamed to admit that when I heard that Michael Jackson had died, one of my first thoughts was how the dribbling multitudes of HYSers would respond, given their love of grief athletics set against their hatred of paedos.

    I see they have exceeded expectations once again.

  83. on 26 Jun 2009 at 1:10 pm Ellie

    From the Times:

    Michael Jackson epitomized music and dance, and epitomized a loving father and a love for children. The UK HMCS family courts could learn from Michael, namely that a man being with a child is not a vile act as viewed by the police and the courts, but as Michael said ”very loving.”

    It seems that doctors have ruled out exposure to sunshine and moonlight as the triggers for MIchael Jackson’s heart attack. Good times are similarly unlikely to have brought it on. According to them, the most likely cause of death is boogie.

İn junior school everybody was know how much i love him. I couldn’t catch the concert that he gave in here İstanbul i wish i could . . . He lived a lonely life and he didn’t deserve it but i know deep down inside he always knew that hundreds of thousands people will always loved him . .

    Sorry. going to have a little rant here amongst all the wonderful Jacko comments – but why (and indeed, oh why) can so many people not tell the fkn difference between ‘lose’ and ‘loose’. They’re two DIFFERENT words pronounced in two DIFFERENT ways. The inability to tell the difference ranks high in my twatbasket identification criteria(yeah, I have a list, OK?).

    A big irritation for me is the habit of organising life’s experiences into lists. (Top 5 shags. 50 films to see before you die. 10 most irritating spelling mistakes. 100 funniest sketches. etc.) It implies that everything in life can be quantified and organised into distinct levels of merit, which I don’t believe they can, or should. In fact, assigning false numerical values to non-numerical experiences is my number one pet hate to be honest.

    I think it is more likely that Nelson was the President of Honduras and is currently preoccupied with scrabbling his way back in to power. SYB has the unmistakable whiff of a banana-republic dictator’s pet project. After a hard day torturing journalists, shooting human rights lawyers and raping the pretty left-wing students, every tyrant needs to relax. SYB is a despot’s hobby. It’s for taunting western liberals with the blatant evidence of the impossibility of democracy. “These comments were written by your electorate; look, weep and despair.” (followed by lots of Mwah hah hah obviously)

    Ha! I demand that someone makes this programme immediately (I’m assuming there are at least a few Nathan Barley media types reading this.) The adventures of a 4 ft tall hominid housewife and her marriage to a Cuban band leader would be ratings gold. And as Dr Feelgood notes, there could be a ‘Nights’ version.
