good stuff (you're *sure* you'll be more intelligent,are you?)

I'm okay, had a crazed day rescued from car-crash territory by evening of pub/smokes and lovely friends. feeling very soppy about mates,basically

00:00 / 07.08.03

Let's see... Do I believe that the Catholic church is the living embodyment of the Antichrist because it believes that the host turns into the body of Christ? No. Do I openly support genocide? No. Have I, at any point, armcehd up and down someone's road celebrating the fact that my predecesors raped their predecesors? No.

Do I win? Yes.

hmm, but you do come from a strange little island...

00:02 / 07.08.03

The Nocturnals...the underground of The Underground...we're like the Illuminati but so very very tired...

00:06 / 07.08.03

I should stress that I'm not actualy gonan go pick on orangemen jsut becuase they've had half their brain voluntarily removed and thus piss on everyone's parade, but on the other hand I'm not going over there without my make-up. I don't care how likely it is that I'll get beaten up. This feels important.

Incidently, bip, did you see Teachers? What the hell ahppened to Egg? (I know he's not called Egg in this, but I've never seen it before)

00:21 / 07.08.03

_pin, my girlfriend just came back from Belfast where she spent all of last month (including the 12th...) and she's still got her kneecaps. This despite wearing makeup and even...being American.

Meanwhile, my ass hurts. I've been playing Dance Dance Revolution at home with the big silly dance pad a company just sent me to review. But I feel like Gene Kelley, and that rocks.

00:25 / 07.08.03

I've got a friend who spent I dont know how much cash playing that damn game...I guess he would say lucky you!

00:28 / 07.08.03

I've spent a lot of cash on beer, which I drink while watching the crazy kids play DDR in arcades across the globe. It's the spectator sport of the 21st century. And the beer is cheaper than at most sporting events, too.

00:31 / 07.08.03

See? SEE?? I've never, in my life, either played, or seen being played, DDR.

This is why the island is rubbish.

GodDAMN, I wanna play that game.

00:33 / 07.08.03

No...no you dont. From what I gather its like crossing Parappa the Rapper with a Jane Fonda workout session.

00:33 / 07.08.03

videodrome, i am soooooo jealous. I love DDR, and the concept of being able to play it at home rather than embarrassing myself infront of teenage DDR-queens is very appealing...

think i'm gonna haveta hit the sack...

nnight all...

00:36 / 07.08.03

G'nite bip

00:45 / 07.08.03

G'night Bip

00:48 / 07.08.03

And that's exactly why it rocks.

Here's some DDR voyeurism.

03:28 / 07.08.03

Where have all the people gone?

04:17 / 07.08.03

I'm here, Keg.

04:19 / 07.08.03

How's it going? Whats new? Its 1:17 am here... im too wide awake to sleep...visions of sugar plums refuse to moshpit in my head.

05:23 / 07.08.03

Yeah. It's a bit after midnight here. I'm drunk on White Russians and way too energetic for the hour. But who cares?!

Just finished deconstructing an ex-girlfriend's dream. And am now chuckling at a website replete with Yo Mama snaps.

Regrettable Juvenilia

09:10 / 07.08.03

pin - is that the EMAP fanzine award thing? They emailed me about Jenny Everywhere, and so now I have to decide whether or not to tell them that it's not really a zine...

09:15 / 07.08.03

Yeh, it is EMAP (they do FHM and Golf Monthly too, you know... ). And neither is mine- one issue over a year ago with no real ditribution.

What I really wanna know is how anyone involved found out about The Sky. Weird.

Did they give you The Face's address to write to too?

The Return Of Rothkoid

13:10 / 07.08.03

If this person saying they're from FHM is someone called Chris Bourn, I'd be a little suspicious of it. There's already been a raft of debate about whether it's legitimate elsewhere - more to the point, as to whether a publishing company would get someone with no grasp of how to write a proper email send out a scattergun selection of mails to sites that don't necessarily fit into a competition that nobody anywhere has heard of, ever.

20:47 / 07.08.03

They're saying they're from The Face, but where is this debate?

And how the hell did they find out about The Sky??

The Return Of Rothkoid

22:33 / 07.08.03

Look around UK blogs.

The Return Of Rothkoid

22:34 / 07.08.03

And for FHM read Emap. Mistype.

22:59 / 07.08.03

Well, happy Late Shift to you all the same. Any clues on where I may find these blogs of which you speak?

This isn't some shitty-assed quest, is it?

23:28 / 08.08.03

Incidently, Chris Bourn interviewed Justin Timberlake's choreographer in The Face's fanzine (I have no idea why they call it a fanzine... ) in the capacity of an "editorial intern". Look! They're palming all the jobs onto the free guy!

And the person I was told to send my zine to is the editor's PA/shopping and film editor. Is it weird or not? I don't know...

00:23 / 09.08.03

Have I told you all lately that I adore you? Because I really do.

Tryphena Absent

00:31 / 09.08.03

I'm a miserable bitch and I feel like I've been attacked and I fucking hate barbelith so much.

00:35 / 09.08.03

Whoa! Holy shit! You can't do that! We're Firendsters!

Seriously dear, what's up?

Oh, and here's the joy- bring a plate, have a (meagre) feast.

Tryphena Absent

00:35 / 09.08.03

And what the hell is wrong with this place? What the hell am I doing somewhere that's full of depressed people who know far too much about me? Christ, you know what this is, I think it's time to change my name.

Tryphena Absent

00:39 / 09.08.03

I don't know. I just feel like the whole day started wrong and this whole board made it wronger which is so toss because now I'm whining here about this place. It's just that everyone was in such a bad mood today.

00:39 / 09.08.03

Seriously Anna, what's wrong?

00:44 / 09.08.03

I see you have answered me already.

If it helps, a bunch of people on the island are gonna get humourous food poisoning soon after we had a fire, and chilled stuff got left out, in a burning building, and then put back in the chillers ater 45 minutes (management suck). Today at work I was willing it on people.

That really has to stop.

Good luck, Anna

Tryphena Absent

00:52 / 09.08.03

That's pretty bad they're probably all going to be sick. Haha.

Our Lady of The Two Towers

01:04 / 09.08.03

As one of the angry people I'm really sorry Anna. And to Flyboy as well while I'm at it. Just...

It's just, in the last couple of days I've really built up going to Brighton Pride in my mind, and then for this cold to just come OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE, and now I'm up with the insomniacs on the Late Shift and therefore I won't be able to go tomorrow because my body will be wanting me to sleep and it's just...

I want to hit something. I want this cold to go away at least for two days. I want to sleep.

I want to be able to spontaneously teleport! Then, I could still go to Pride, even if I stayed up all night, when I started to get tired I got teleport home to bed! Bah, stupid genes...

And weather reports suggest it's going to be 10 degrees cooler in Brighton than London, which would be reason enough to head down there.

And what's worse is that I'm so angry and upset because my oh so important plans for a weekend have been put out whereas I've still got my health (in a broader sense), and a job, and security and am not one of the millions of people in the world a lot better off. Insomnia's obviously not the worst of my problems, I seem to have regressed back to being a teenager as well!
