MULTIPLE ORGANISMS - CLOSING DOWN SALE?!
"Multiple Organisms", a uniquely British web experience (ie. very
little interaction, a bit slow, closes early on Wednesdays) and
coincidentally my home page, is still open for perusal by the
web at large. But hurry, hurry - owing to a recent move, these
pages may be deleted in summer and EVERYTHING MUST GO! We've got
beautifully crafted verbs at rock bottom usage, blatent
euphemisms for a song, nauseating innuendo at any price and we're
just giving away disgraceful expletives!

This veritable cornucopia of unnecessarily verbose language
contains:
* The Compost Heap, a pile of words artfully arranged into
paragraphs that hope to offer erudition and enlightenment, but
usually fall prey to cheap laughs and sarcasm. Includes "The
National Robbery", highlighted in "Internet World" and PCW
magazines, and the Valentine's Day Massacre special, about which
the Netsurfer Digest wrote:
"...You'll find cynically appropriate and wickedly barbed musings
on places to meet people, student relationships, being single,
and weddings. The rest of the page has other brilliant spewings
on a variety of nonlinear subjects."
* The official page of the Scarlet Martyrs, the last great rock
band not to come out of Aberystwyth. Pictures, songs and demo
tape all available here:
"A darn sight better than a lot of the crap that big labels put
out now." - Todd Eigenschink of iwitnis
* A bit about me, but you can skip that.
All this for the price of a few TCP/IP connections and the wild
hope of bribing a mention in the Online pages of the Guardian!
"I highly recommend this site to all who are lucky enough to have
WWW access; because of its depth, wit, and diversity..." - Leigh
Armstrong on the Dominion mailing list
"What a moving experience!" - Dr C
"...So cynical for one so young" - Simon Greenwood, Easynet
"I am writing to thank you primarily for the Classy materiaL you
have mAde available" - Jim Somebody
"I've just discovered http://www.dcs.aber.ac.uk/~ajr/scribbles/
and its associated banter, and find it hilarious." - Matt George
"I quite liked the bit about sacrificing a member of the
Christian Union." - Tim Jervis
"Well done, a very nice bit of work." - Matt Haswell
[That's enough compliments, this is beginning to sound like

You know it makes sense to cause offence
