(Oh... I posted something. And it didn't hurt. And I didn't lose my sould. Wow. Of course, being an unexperienced lurker, I fucked up and erased parts of the message. *sigh*)

Lugue

00:52 / 17.02.04

Yes milady, yes. And pardon the dumbass multiposting.

G'night GeeBee!

GeeBee... Ooh Im unique again! I am here to stay, I was goodnighting Quen, oh resident pondscumlurker. I think a few more firm ass-candlings will sort out that double posting habit he's got going there.

Go and shake May out her bed!

Saint Keggers

01:09 / 17.02.04

No....May's grumpy when she gets up. Not a good idea.

Saint Keggers

01:12 / 17.02.04

Besides, Im at my place and May isnt. So Im not travelling out to where she is just to shake her out of bed. No. Not gonna happen. Aint gonna do it. Although its warmer than it has been in the past few days its still not "go outside if you dont have to" type of weather.

gingerbop

01:19 / 17.02.04

Wait... am I the last one to catch on again? Are you an item? Or how do you know her grumpiness when she gets up? Even if not, can I set up Barbewedding #2? Oh wait, sorry, will have to be #3. After mine and Jades, of course. *dreamy sighs*

Saint Keggers

01:23 / 17.02.04

No. no item. No wedding. I've crashed over at her place after work. Thats all.

sorry to dissapoint.

Mazarine

01:30 / 17.02.04

I feel old.

You feel old! Well hell, then I feel mummified.

Saint Keggers

01:34 / 17.02.04

Maz, maybe we should just sit on the porch, shaking our canes at the young'uns and yelling about how things were better in the old days!

gingerbop

01:38 / 17.02.04

ARGH! You're no fun.

As for proper barbecouples, who can we have? It doesnt help that I cant remember who is otherwise taken, and who's gay and who's not.
So we already have xoc/ganesh, stoatie/mono, lurid/mordrant, keggers/may for the sake of it, myself/jade..
Who do you want, Maz?

Saint Keggers

01:45 / 17.02.04

Tune in next week for the next exciting episode of Gingerbops Barbelith Soap Opera

gingerbop

01:48 / 17.02.04

Couldnt compete with Neighbours- today, because of it, my mum said it was fine by her if I ran off with strange men to Japan for "fashion events". I will hold her to that.

Saint Keggers

01:54 / 17.02.04

Neighbours? Bah! I think the only foreign soap Ive ever watched was Coronation Street. Supposedly the fans in Canada are the most fanatical about it. Odd.

gingerbop

02:01 / 17.02.04

Oh dear me. Never mind. There are groups that can help you, my dear.

My eyes are about to pop, and Im just searching for silly things on ebay (currently sewing machines), so goodnight to you both. And if you dont have 1728 couples sorted by the time I get back, you're in big trouble, matey. Ooh. We have number 3456. How funky.

Saint Keggers

02:05 / 17.02.04

Hey, I've never watched more than 10 episodes in my whole life. Now General Hospital....Theres a good soap!

Goodnight GeeBee!

Oh heavens. Good question. I feel like I should pick someone who I know to be spoken for IRL, since I am. My first impulse is Rothkoid, but he's never around any more, and that's not soap opera material. It's probably best to let the writers choose for me. Or write me off with some sort of elaborate hostage situation only to have me return with dissociative disorder believing myself to be my own identical twin only to have my memory return a season later to realize I have now committed polyandry.

Or something.

Baz Auckland

03:37 / 17.02.04

...demanding that everyone on the board couple up could start a very entertaining and potentially ugly thread...

I prefer evil clones/twins to hostages in soaps I must say.. although I don't think Coronation St. has gotten there yet..

Mazarine

14:45 / 17.02.04

Heh. There was the barbeslash thread a while back, over in creation. That was pretty amusing.

Mazarine

17:56 / 17.02.04

I know it's a bit early for shiftiness, at least where I am, but I'm doing laundry and I'm bored. Anyone about?

Mazarine

23:00 / 17.02.04

Okay, now is it late enough for shiftiness?

gingerbop

23:07 / 17.02.04

Most definetely. Goodevening all, Im dissapointed you dont have that list set up yet.

I drew a ballerina today. I am very busy and important.

Mazarine

23:14 / 17.02.04

Like I said, I'm leaving my hookup to the writers, whoever they may be.

I did not draw a ballerina, but I did lots and lots of laundry. I would have rather drawn a ballerina.

Bed Head

23:39 / 17.02.04

clears throat

Well, whoever these writers are, they better be good. I’ll probably get killed off before the theme tune has faded out. Or only appear in ‘flashback’, ie years before all barbecoupling proper takes place. Or I’ll get the job of omniscient narrator, something rubbish like that. Bah.

Hey, lateshift.

gingerbop

23:46 / 17.02.04

My ballerina is sad. She is currently missing one arm, both hands and a head.

Eugh. There's a seven year old who wont leave my gym club's message board alone. Shes currently pleading me to let her go to the club for free (like nobody else), and without being tested first(like everyone else is). How can you tell a seven year old not to be so fucking stupid?

How about I tell her she can do your laundry for free? Then you can come over and draw ballerinas too. I'd love to be all dainty like that, and have hips that have the ability to turn out. Im currently o/d'ing on vitamin D and calcium, because they're in both glucosomine tablets and iron/multivits. Im sure it cant kill me too fast. Not as fast as my bloody creaking hips will.
On Watchdog tonight, it had lots of young women who had been refused hip replacementy things on the NHS. Which scares me. Though you probably think we're be lucky to get anything NHS.

Bed Head

00:03 / 18.02.04

Why the ballerina, Bop? And, why no head or hands, what terrible calamity has happened to her? Someone should do a comic about ballet dancers. A really soap opera-y, catty, melodramatic tale of a post-apocalyptic touring ballet company. Get that drawing finished! It'll be great!

Anyway, what’s a seven year old doing a) up and b) on the internet at this time of night?

Char Aina

00:19 / 18.02.04

its no seven year old, its a paedophile and he's grooming you. honestly, have you never watched any public service announcements?

sorry to hear about the legs... you're gonna have to get that sorted soon though. there wont be an NHS when your in your sixties.

gingerbop

00:27 / 18.02.04

And I probably wont have a pension either. So just bury me now, everyone!

I dont think they'd operate now, for "frequent clunkage." Nor do I have the desire to a)enter a hospital, and b)let a doctor anywhere fucking near me with anything pointy.

I was just sifting through a bookself in my house, and there were lots of my sisters ballet books. So I drew one. Her lack of body parts was due to my dinner being ready. And the paper ran out just below her knees as well. She is a rather disadvantaged dancer.

The seven year old is not up, but left messages. As for a seven year old on the internet full stop... bizzare. It would seem much more normal if she was a paedophile, other than me not being peado material anymore.

Hows Frasers treating you, Toksik? Sacked you yet?

Bed Head

00:29 / 18.02.04

Oh bosh, when you’re in your sixties Bop, you won’t need to use your hips. Everyone will have shoes that fly. Just like in Back To The Future 2, which I believe to be an accurate depiction of the world that is to come.

Hi all

Woog. Hershey bars and limeade do not mix. But ya'll probably already knew that.

Anyway, don't feel bad, Bedhead, I probably wouldn't even be killed off, just sent to found a library in Antarctica or something, in eternal plot limbo.

Hi DM!

Char Aina

01:05 / 18.02.04

GB-not yet. thats for tomorrow.

and lets call it 'frasiers' in case they send their evil searcher-drones into an internet cafe, shall we? i am a deeply paranoid person sometimes and it would help.

gingerbop

01:11 / 18.02.04

You know, this fucking company love toskik (read: skiving lazy bastard

) much more than me (read: hardish working person, well, person who turned up).
AND THEY KEPT YOU AND NOT ME! Im not bitter.

gingerbop

01:17 / 18.02.04

Oh, and I know that in Glasgow its muchly different and more organised to ex-inverness, but I still doubt they could switch a computer on.

Had any more blood thoughts? Tis a shame you are not of the female variety; would make it much easier. I just had a nosebleed, which Im not amused about. They usually go away for 11 months, and then go every night for a month solid. Je suis tres not amused.
