Brief intro to me I think sort of kind of well...yeah

19:17 / 29.11.02

Hi my name is crowley I got it from Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaimen, yes the 'Sandman' guy which is my bible.

I survive in Liverpool, England (you know that twee little place that applying to be anouther state of America) I am trying to be a creative type working my own comic, building my own website and so on.

I have an amazing girlfriend called Christine (Chris refers to me by either my real name which I ain't tellin' or by my pet name Big Shit).

I collect comics of all kinds even though I know this contradicts the previous paragraph.

I enjoy the destruction in Half Life and the control in The Sims. I do not belive in conspiracies, if 'they' really are out to get me then 'they' have incredabley meaningless lives.

I thought Lord of the Rings was a classic movie and the Matrix the biggest pile of style over content clap trap in the history of film.

Talk to me find out more :-)

PS my little brother in lore just lost 3000 pounds on Computer Millionare. That translates roughly into 1 doller fifty cents.

Ye-Ha No-Ha

Um... you do know that Gaiman named the character Crowley after a real person...? Quite a famous real person, in his way...?

Welcome to Barbelith Crowley. There’s no real need to post a description of yourself here. There are plenty of opportunities to reveal stuff about you. Unveil yourself like an onion. People are more likely to view you in terms of what you have to say on the various topics under discussion and the way that you say it.

Yeah, your name is the same as a fat old smack head who died in Scotland.
Oh and he wrote a few books about magic and some poetry.

21:54 / 29.11.02

Can I unveil myself like aubergine?

Strange Machine Vs The Virus with Shoes

22:16 / 29.11.02

If you want to dude, but onions have more skins. Maybe you can unveil yourself as an artichoke?

22:57 / 29.11.02

Welcome to Barbelith. You'll find lots of people here who know about Crowley. The magick is a good forum to go to if you want to dig deeper into the...um...well...magick (but perhaps not magic, though I am confused about the status of majic, majick and mahjick).

But the Matrix shallow? Of course it was shallow. Do you criticise candyfloss for being too sugary?

BTW - aubergines (isn't that eggplant for you, Monkey?) go all soft, yummy and gooey if you cook em for long enough. Unveiling, in a stricter sense, may be a bit trickier.

I thought he died in a bedsit in Hastings, though perhaps I'm mistaken.

Strange Machine Vs The Virus with Shoes

01:01 / 30.11.02

No, your right numberfortyeight, he did die in Hastings. I have heard a lot of rumours that Hastings is a place of much negative energy. So maybe he would like to unveil himself as a cabbage?

02:28 / 30.11.02

*with mouth full of candy floss*

Shallow? I resent that!.............err, nevermind.

Welcome Crowley. I Loved Good Omens, I have a shrine for The Endless, and I adore the old, beastly smackhead. Cool.

Do you do "huggles"?

How about unveiling yourself like a endive? One nutty, bitter leaf at a time.

21:13 / 30.11.02

So, following along this train of thought, exactly how many infamous occultists died in Portsmouth?

23:46 / 30.11.02

Actually I am quiet keen on Bannanas, so I would like to unveil myself like a bannana please. I am well aware or the balding old gimp whom was supposedly the most evil man in the world blah blah blah. Hmmm I don't think he ever did anything so bad as say invade Poland though.

I don't mind shallow I enjoyed Godzilla for goodness sake LOL but The Matrix was simpley a showcase for bullet time and shell caseings. The thing with a film is you should at least try and make me rott for the goodies boo the baddies. Not breath a sigh of relief when the goodies get unplugged and root for the more interesting baddies. Incidentley wasn't the main agent in Matrix the same actor who played Elrond in LOTR?

Ye-Ha No-Ha

23:58 / 30.11.02

The entire cult of the half moon order died in Plymouth. The biggest villain in the matrix was the guy who turned up in the Sopranos (still a villain). I can’t remember his name, Joey, Jackie, young Jackie, old Jackie, jimmy, Johnny, Jim bob?

11:51 / 01.12.02

Joey Joe Joe Junior Shabadoo?

19:17 / 01.12.02

The main villian from the Matrix also played a australian crossdresser in The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.

And the Matrix is an onion they just painted the first layer so shiny no one peels deeper.

welcome to the board crowley. the great thing about this place is no matter how weird the topic might be, people will probably know what you're talking about. Nietzch E. your pictures gone bad

The Matrix is like an onion your absoulutley right! It stinks and makes you cry LOL. The Matrix for me lacked anything worthwhile in the 2 hour expierence. It is the hight of pretension having Laurence Fishbone spouting Invisible inspired twoddle whilst wearing an ankle length leather over coat INDOORS and Gucci shades AT NIGHT (as well as indoors). I usually laugh my tits of at people like that. Plus later he gets his head bounced of a kazzi which is also for me the highlight of the movie.

I could rant forever on the Matrix I really could but I am not going to. Batman and Robin on the other hand...

LOL

Ye-Ha No-Ha

10:38 / 07.12.02

@It is the hight of pretension having Laurence Fishbone spouting Invisible inspired twoddle@

Because, gosh, don'tcha know it, it all originated with the Invisibles.

Pass me the barf bag please.

Well, how about "monumentally derivative, sliced-white-Buddhism-to-go twaddle which (whilst we cannot automatically assume a connection) bore an uncanny resemblance to a certain comic"?

And oi! I like Lawrence Fishburn. And his coat.

The technical term is a pince-nez.

Hugo Weaving also has no taste in pies. Having sold him one, this I know.

05:57 / 08.12.02

What'd he get, brain and kidney, or something?

The Return Of Rothkoid

07:21 / 08.12.02

Noo. A bacon (as in "salted bits of unnamable food product that really isn't meat) and meat pie, and a Ned Kelly pie, IIRC. A Ned Kelly pie is a meat pie with a whole egg inside it, and topped with not pastry but cheese with lumps of ham in it. It's cooked so that the cheese goes helmet-hard and maintains its integrity even if dropped out of the pie-warmer onto the floor.

I've seen it happen.

23:16 / 10.12.02

But The Matrix is in the matrix.

No really, Big Star?

I got myself a nice poster...

Is your cyber persona as puzzle cryptic without the pieces for there are no pieces like gigantic feces? Be one! Be one with the two! As the one shattered the blue death life said freedom of the slave thoughts for supper. Spectacle of specs! Put on these microchips!
