And an SDT. Crabs are not only cheap pets to have, but you can pass them on to all your friends so you can share in the fun!

Do you ever listen to the Sunday Surgery on Radio one? It was all about sex last week (just for a change...) and who did they have dispensing advice? Why who else but Tim Westwood! His best advice was this:

"Remember kids - you've got to wrap it up before you slap it up!"

He seems to know quite a lot about herpes, take that how you want.

Thanks, but I think I'll skip the panty crickets.


By the way, is Tim Westwood some famous UK horn-dog?

I just know him as the host of the UK version of MTV's "Pimp My Ride".
I only ever watched the special episode "Pimp Madonna's Ride" and found him intensely irritating.

Tim Westwood is host of the Radio One Rap Show, very popular in this country, and like Jatty said was the host of UK Pimp My Ride too. He's a white guy, but as my dad used to put it, "speaks like some black American or something" He has some classic phrases, like "Holla at ya butler!" and "Bow down and kiss the rings!" which he just spits out at random. Some people think he's a knob, some people (like me) think he's fantastic entertainment value.

"UK Pimp My Ride"? I'm getting an ugly vision of some tiny, cringing Vauxhall being subjected to the tasteless indignity of 20" Sprewells (complete with free-spinning centers), a vivid blue metalflake paintjob, and a white leather interior that would make the finest New Orleans whorehouse blush. And of course, the obligatory 300 pounds of stereo and TV equipment that make the heater controls and spare tire unreachable.

Is he in fact the king of the Chavs, or merely their highest inspiration?
Are you 100% sure he's originally from the UK?

I can see that...in a trainwreck sort of way. I suspect he's Robert's worst nightmare come to life.

How did you guess? Though I've never seen him, so I shouldn't really comment. If he's as bad as you guys are making him sound, though...

Hey bitch, what's wrong with vauxhalls?? I've got a little corsa of my own. OK, so it can't go up hills, but it's cool!

I'm 100% positive. Know how? Cos he's from Norwich, that charming city where I spend half my weekends! He actually went to a private school there, so he's just a chav wanna-be.

I thought Rob's worst nightmare was being a jumbo sausage roll, and being munched on by Jats and Trep.

There...I smothered the thread with a jumbo sausage roll!
No need to post anything here again.
It's dead all right.
Move away....
Show some respect....

I just found this feature of the MTV website that allows one to watch episodes of TV shows on the internet, at no cost.
There is an episode of "Pimp My Ride UK", so you can experience the horror of Tim Westwood.

By 'horror' of course, you mean 'hilarity'

There's a "Pimp My Ride" pub quiz machine. I kid you not.

Yes!

Though I'm surprised you had to ask that question.

Oh no you didn't! You betta check yo'self before you wreck yo'self! Don't make me clown up in here.
Seriously though, there's nothing wrong with Vauxhalls per se but they're not exactly the car of choice for pimps. A true pimp ride must have at least a V8 engine, and must be large enough to carry all your ladies at once...in comfort. Snoop Doggy-dog's '74 Cadillac (nicknamed the "Snoop DeVille") is perhaps the ultimate example of a pimpmobile, although the custom Cadillacs in "Live And Let Die" are typical of the ideal as well.

A chav wanna-be? How sad.
