    I will always wonder about that dude's choice of name.

    Did this dude not think to try google before deciding to go with 'Nonce' ?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonce_%28slang%29

    In the UK, thats generally what people take it to mean.

  • yeah i always tried to gloss over that aspect of the nonce. never cared much about WC and the maaad circle but it didn't escape my attention all the same

    naw, you're right. It was all part of a movement in LA. Young rap groups with deviant names. For example...
    The Wascals, The Whooliganz, and The Sex Offenders. They thought Sex Offenders didn't have a good ring to it, so they googled some alternatives and stuck with Nonce.


    Actually The Nonce, is (was) two dudes, and google came into existence 3 years after their debut album was released. Also, I doubt those dudes were concerned with british slang, much less even knowing the existence of such slang.

    The different versions of it are quite different, unfortunately so, but I am guessing they were rolling with something like this:


    The one or single occasion; the present reason or purpose (now only in for the nonce).

    Cool song, thanks-- I've been wanting to hear it for a good minute. Something about the ethereal feel of most Nonce tracks makes me extra sad thinking about Yusef Afloat's death...

    And I'm honestly puzzled that I never made the WC connection until now. from the experience I guess...

    what's all this about WC? Are you taking it to mean water closet or something?

  • 'disguised as a school'

    HAHAHA

    how Frickin' genius is that?

    my personal favourite is probably the drugs episode where he gets the anti-CAKE campaign going. bernard manning talking about "one poor bastard coughed up his own pelvis", noel edmonds exclaiming that "cake is a made up drug"

    "They fill the shops with rice, then they pour in water..."

  • What I want to know is how you feel about other people who are feeding off the same ... carcass. People who make computer games like 'The Last Chase' where you play a paparazzo chasing a car through a tunnel, subtitle of the game 'Snap The Dying Bitch'.
