Too drunk to be posting! really. Too dumb to go bed! Is anyone else around?
 
 
iamus
23:59 / 10.06.06
All around. Yes.

How are you this fine evening (apart from drunk and dumb)?
 
 
Bed Head
00:04 / 11.06.06
Oh, gosh, is there anything else to be? Doesn’t feel like it sometimes. But yeah, fine, happy, etc. Most definitely.

Hey, you. Aaaaand how the devil is iamus?

I'm doing dandy.

Put in an unexpected bastard of a shift in work. Pulled in to work in the bar because of a World Cup promotion that's going on. Would have been shit, but they had hired a real-life steel band to play in the corner! That was cool!

Also, last night I was at an illegal underground gig, courtesy of toksik. That was also very cool!

Home now. Eaten Pizza. Drinking beers.


Et tu?

Oh God, nothing as interesting! I currently have le day job, as the French say, and I’m trying to squeeze as much day job as possible into a couple of quick months and so get it over with as soon as possible. So I’m currently being very dull and doing nothing except getting my brane around the concept of working shifts. And suchlike. On the plus side, I am Working With The Public again, in a suitably lowly position and I actually kinda like that.

I’d quite to work in a bar, I think. I should try that next.

Will there be any REPORTS on the illegal underground gathering? Photos and suchlike? I always kinda wish more people would post photos in Gathering, but have no idea how to encourage this to happen. But I can’t be the only one who’s been reading that thread and wondering.

I'm here. Probably not for long. I'm quite drunk, and should probably sleep soon. The only reason I'm in this thread at all is because I realised I was too drunk to be playing World of Warcraft. Because I have weapons and stuff there.

No camera with me unfortunately. I came along spectacularly unprepared I must say, though next time I'll be sure I'm girded for battle.

Not sure I can say too much, 'cause it was all on the down-low. Tokisk's not what I'd call wrathful by any stretch of the imagination, but I wouldn't want a loose tounge to rouse his inner rage.

Oh I'd post pics but you know what with the witness protection program and the elite hit squads and all that. It'd too much of a hassle to go through another round of plastic surgery after every gathering.

Barbelith doesn't have a thread on The Dreamers (the Bertolucci film)? Am I imagining that?
 
 
iamus
00:40 / 11.06.06
Dreaming it, I reckon.
 
 
Tryphena Absent
00:41 / 11.06.06
I am not dreaming! Hear my indignance!
 
 
Bed Head
00:41 / 11.06.06
No thread on The Dreamers? Silly barbelith.

There I was watching it, Theo sitting at the table, he looks fully dressed, stands up. He's only wearing a JACKET! Can I post about how I laughed? NO, NO I CAN'T!
 
 
iamus
00:47 / 11.06.06
Was it like this?

"Teeheeheeheeheeheehee"

Or this?

"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!"

Or this?

"Ohmy!-tittertittertitter"
 
 
Bed Head
00:47 / 11.06.06
But what a fine very-first-post-in-a-thread that image would make, though. Do it! Start the thread!
 
 
Saint Keggers
00:49 / 11.06.06
Do people actually say "tittertittertitter?"
 
 
iamus
00:51 / 11.06.06
Of course they do, though only in a handful of occasions.

Finding fully-dressed people to be half-nekkid is one of those.
 
 
Saint Keggers
00:59 / 11.06.06
Oh. So Ann just compleatly ruined a funny tittertittertitterable bit?


Horrid.
 
 
Saint Keggers
01:01 / 11.06.06
and I just left the A off of Anna.


Horrider

01:01 / 11.06.06
No, no, my laugh was more like HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I find it difficult to titter constantly through a film.
 
 
Saint Keggers
01:05 / 11.06.06
The only time I've ever HAHAHAHAAH'd through a film was While You Were Sleeping. When the newspaper kid takes a wipeout on the icy sidewalk. I left the theatre in pain I laughed so much. The rest of the movie pretty much sucked in comparison.
 
 
iamus
01:12 / 11.06.06
Are you condemning the work of la Bullock?

She could have wiped out twice as good as any newspaper kid if she'd been given the chance.


Hrrrrm...

Is it time to go to bed if you're a bit pished and reflective and Japanese Enka comes on over iTunes?
 
 
iamus
01:14 / 11.06.06
Ah... twice in a row.

On random.
 
 
Tryphena Absent
01:16 / 11.06.06
It's not so much that as the sheer level of semi and full nudity. If you haven't seen it than I recommend it for a day when you're not feeling too fragile. Quite interesting to see where people fall at the end as well...
 
 
Saint Keggers
01:17 / 11.06.06
I misread that as Japanese Enya. "How odd", I thought.
 
 
Saint Keggers
01:18 / 11.06.06
Also I'd just like to state for the record that I HATE drawing feet. And legs. Cant do it. Arrr.
 
 
iamus
01:19 / 11.06.06
I've been wanting to see it for a good while now, but it's turned into one of those movies that I never seem to get around to. I reckon I should make more of an effort.

What spurred this on anyway?
TeN's mention in the porn/erotica headshop thread?
 
 
Tryphena Absent
01:30 / 11.06.06
Yes, I went to see it in the cinema and when I read about it tonight I realised that I hadn't watched it for a while so I whipped out the DVD.

It's a film that I really love, I think it's constructed really well in every way, everything that Bertolucci does well is done well in this film and the ending is just the right combination of abrupt and ongoing. It has shades of erotic, funny, intensely serious... sometimes very awkward but always drawing you back.
 
 
Tryphena Absent
01:31 / 11.06.06
Actually it probably says a lot that I started watching it to refresh my memory for the thread and ended up watching the film and wondering what on earth to post there.
 
 
iamus
01:41 / 11.06.06
I think you should start that thread, if only as a reminder to me to get the movie out and watch it. Barbelith threads are good for that sort of thing, I find.

Anyway.... I'm off for the night I reckon.


Have a good night Anna

You too Keggers and (the possibly sleeping) Bed Head.
 
 
Saint Keggers
01:42 / 11.06.06
G'night Iamus!
 
 
Hallo, Paper Spaceboy

Listening to Frank Sinatra.

Curious to hear a woman do a cover of "Lady is a Tramp," maybe switch it into the first person...oddly, I could see Esthero doing a decent job. I suppose I shall have to see if the Music Forum has an "imaginary covers" thread.

OILERS WON!!! WHOHOOOOO!!!

Go Habs! (sorry, just preparing for next year)

But a definite Yay! for the Oilers.

Hello Lateshift! How are you?

I've just about downloaded Vampire Hunter D and the new Doctor Who. A 7 hour wait for a 45 minute episode is not a good deal. I was shit at economics though.

A few moths are visiting my room tonight. Too hot for closed windows. Strange, last year I would be one of the Rolled-up Newspaper Boys of the Apolcaypse but now I'm quite okay with the little beasts. St. Pete's way must be rubbing off. I draw the line at mourning tho.

Hours of pseudotelly action tomorrow. What's everyone up to?
