We’re having a 2-for-1 special on spoof threads today. Hence the Immaculate Conception fiasco.
Hey, I’m going to report you hijacking this thread!
Y’know that “No Prisoners!” massacre-scene near the end of the movie, that Lawrence was supposed to be so ashamed of afterwards, and so disgusts the photojournalist who is following him? I never got that. In context, I found myself very glad that not a single one of those Turkish soldiers lived to see the sun go down that day; they had just massacred a whole village of civilians. And how are guerrilla-irregulars supposed to take prisoners anyway? Better to send them to Hell with Lieutenant Calley than let them just walk home.
Well, he wasn’t exactly passing for Arab . . . I remember when he’s arrested and brought to the Turkish officer (who apparently is predatory-gay), who asks, “You’re very fair. Are you Circassian?” “Yes, Effendi.” The Ottomans had a huge multinational empire with a lot of fair-skinned blue-eyed peoples in it, no surprise to find one such wandering around in Arabia.
On to dumb: ask us!
Would that make it an immaculate cxonception? :eek:
It’s my understanding he was into Prison Sex.
It’s a reference to his horse – an Arabian Stallion. :dubious:
It’s a stage name. His real name was Rod O’Steele.
You guys are missing the real issue here. It’s not Peter O’Toole. It’s Alec Guinness playing Faisal. As everyone knows Guinness was not an Arab. He was a Jedi.
Ah.
He was a spy for the Circus. And a damn good one.
Who is the bigger fool? The fool, or the fool who follows O’Toole?
Known for the film: Lawrence Does Arabia.
I can see the confustion, though, Lawrence being such a common name in Arabia.
In Arabic: Alla’ah Rensah, which translates as “God’s Bitch”. I thought this place fought ignorance. :rolleyes:
Odd how you’re in every single one of them, innit?
Lots of anal in that one.
He cultivated that kink hiring a Hooker with a Penis.
Please sir, what is an “ass thread”?
