Sinister: "I AM SO SCARED!!!"
by Scott Turner 03 Aug '99

03 Aug '99

I really don't want people to take this the wrong way, but I am absolutely shocked by the negative reaction that people have been having to the Blair Witch Project. I think the criticism's are even scarier than the movie is. Has hollywood conditioned your emotions so much, that you couldn't emerse yourself into this movie and be petrified???!!! I am SO SCARED!!!! Really I am. Not just that most of the criticisms completely didn't know how to deal with the movie on its own terms ("uh, the character development was a bit shakey",... "uh, the dialogue left alot to be desired, I think hemmingway could have done a better job with it"), but the fact that you couldn't feel. I mean people should do psychology experiments on you. What on earth is scary to you then? When hollywood "suprises" you with special effects and a quick montage!!!??? Neve Campbell in a tight shirt screaming bloody murder?????!!!!!!! Something you can put a face on and see and hear and know clearly????!!!! A confessional ending that ties up all the loose ends for you, puts your emotions in a tidy little package until the sequel???!!!! I am really interested to find out what you'all think is frightening. In Blair Witch, there were no suprises, no sexual exploitation, no special effects, at all, yet if you emersed yourself into the experience, it was absolutely frightening. The film technique was truly inventive and forceful. See it without prejudice. Shed the emotive programming and feel something fresh for a change. Leave your insulation of jade and irony at home, and expose yourself to something new. Again, I don't mean to offend anyone directly, I'm just flabbergasted in general. B&S content: Well sort of: all you new wave 80's kids should check out Barcelona on March Records. Its some great indie-pop with lots of casios. Philly content: Should have went to Sorted on Saturday but went to Silk City instead. Mistake. Other than a fine speech on ornithology and bird calls, Arling & Cameron were posers and thieves. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: life in a bubblehouse
by Matthew Dowgert 03 Aug '99

i've got a question for you folks over in merry olde england. right now i'm going into my last year of college here in massachusetts. all ive been thinking about for the past six months or so has been how much i'd like to go to england after next year to study (right now i'm leaning towards law, although i'm also considering evolutionary/ behavioral psychology. i love both subjects, so that's a tough decision in and of itself, but anyhow...). my question for you guys is this: where in england and/or scotland do you feel would be the most interesting place to hang out and do some book-learnin' for a year or two. i'm leaning towards manchester, but am wide open for suggestions, especially after hearing from some friends who went to st. andrews a couple of years ago that manchester is not liked in those parts. anyway, i thank you for whatever help you might be able to provide this ignorant boy. i bought an extra-value meal at mcdonalds yesterday and gave it to a guy who was pan-handling at a park near where i work. he ate some of it, i guess, but later on i saw him feeding french fries to some small birds. i guess he figured they looked hungrier than he felt. this had little to do with b&s, but probably as much as female masturbation ('dialing the fun phone'?) does. oh well... bip-bopping along, NC +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: ooh tequila, it make me naughty...
by Pamela Hutchinson 03 Aug '99

03 Aug '99

HELLO Arantxa said I was the nicest woman alive and she is wrong*. So wrong. As I proved by heartlessly abandoning fellow listees who had come up from the provinces in Trafalgar Square in the early hours and forcing them to sleep on a column and everything. I was drunk tired and thoughtless and I hope they can forgive me. I'm sure they will. The overwhelming 'good-naturedness' of the list and the cause of pretty little pep messages like Arantxa's was proved yet again by the scrumptious bunch of people that attended the piccernic on Saturday - Yo Lixi, you can baffle my lemur any day of the week! After hearing several reports of tapes and supportive messages passed among list members, my blokey (a member of the simply fascinating Widhearts list - go on hit onelist.com, I know you want to) said that Sinister sounded like, well, one big circlejerk. How funny, he doesn't even know about the gang-wanking whimsython, or that marvellous remote controlled mosheen or our current illuminating thread on the secrets closest to all girly's erm, hearts (which thread is, in my humble opinion running far longer than it would without all these recurring references to Mr R Martin and his luscious latino lustiness). Oh and sorry, Ben. If the belle and Sebastian fans you saw at Baxendale were dancing like demons down the front of the gig, then that was us, a small rebel faction of the picnic straying from the main herd. I have taken home my Baxendale single and played it to myself sober - it's still fun, but the My Life Story-ness of it is much more obvious in the cold light of day. For some this would not be a criticism - for others, like myself, it sure as mincingwhingingputonsillysouthernaccentnylonencasedwithouthestyleofjarv hellfire is. Sorry! Everyone I met at the piccernic was luvverly - particularly the tiggeronwheels, no soiree is complete without one. If I mentioned all your names I would be showing off and offending the ones I wasn't introduced to and as I am already in the doghouse, that wouldn't do, would it? Love Pam who shall be glam again at tigermilking xxxxxxxx and extra xxxx to you know who - I really am very sorry *but you still give me your crush votes can't you? All the nice men love a bad girl +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: really very sinister indeed
by Theresa Lowe 03 Aug '99

03 Aug '99

Hello everyone! Something strange happenened to me last night, it was like a vision from the gods themselves. I was listening to IYFS and i realised that they said my name! (well, Saint Theresa) and then end by saying that you are probably best playing with yourself, which is what my first e-mail was about! Maybe this is an omen of sorts. Perhaps i have read too many articles about Manson and the whole Helter Skelter thing. Maybe we have underestimated the power of B&S and they are prophets. Have you, my fellow listees also had visions, the face of elvis in a potato perhaps? And no, the jug of red bull and vodka beforehand had no effect on me at all. better get on with some more work i suppose lots of love Theresa xox (another listee in surburban south west London) _____________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

Sinister: I will wear high heels, I wont cut my hair
by Arantxa Sanz 03 Aug '99

03 Aug '99

Just late, as usual, to add anything new or/and relevant to the Picnic tales.I had a great time, finally just got a living room and not 'a room' as Big Stu suggested two hundred troubled times, thanks to GoldHeart Sarah, whom I feel even closer to now after the ultimate binding-experience: Looking for a not-dodgy taxi in Camden at 2.30 am.If I was half talented than Joseph Conrad, it would become the 90's version of 'The shadow line'. Definitely, as my friend said after buying a tee shirt from him at Bowlie, David Kitchen is the nicest man alive. It is amazing how a musical mogul can be 'that' nice, these business people...I dont know where the blokes are putting their votes into, given Pamela H. is the nicest woman alive, in that order. For a week, I could say my address is Kensington Gore.I could ask people to send me letters and they had to write that address on the envelope:Kensington.Tomorrow, in my free afternoon, I will be able to wear some decent shoes again (my feet are still getting over the taxi experience) and will go for a walk, into Bond Street, and had a look at Tiffanny's and then to the Globe.WAH! I have to practise my posh-walking style to deceive all the millionairesses. And on Thursday, I will go to see the also incredingbly nice Amos'band at The Bull and Gate (Amos, if you read this, thanks a lot for all your help , we did not even say goodbye to you in a proper way, but thats another story, I can tell you on Thursday night if I see you!).So if anyone is making it to, please email privately for a meet-up And will my hair ever grow quicker than this?

Sinister: Egotrip

Just wanted to ask you, ever felt like a rockstar? Or some other famous person? Me, I felt pretty good on friday and on saturday when I was quite pissed and four (!!!) people came up to me and said hi. The thing is, I didn't know any of them. Two of them just said they had seen me in some party, but two (attractive females, I might add) just said "Hi, Jake" and walked away. Never before had I seen them in my life. Maybe I don't play that close attention to people in parties, since this seems to happen to me quite often. Who knows. Felt nice, though. Thats it. And hey, this really WAS a serious question. Has that ever happened to... YOU? @--->-- Jake, sleepy. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister(a)majordomo.net".

Sinister: ListSmut to ListSlut in one pretentious move.
by paul 'garish in pink' sallis 03 Aug '99

03 Aug '99

The recent levels of smut and self-gratifying filth on this hard to find (but richly rewarding once discovered;) sinister niche has been quite frankly shocking! This used to be such a pleasant area, you used to able to trust your neighbours and leave your doors wide open without fear of midnight prowlers and buggery (err, burglary). But now you can�t even walk down the street without having female masturbation forced down your throat, or ring-piece manipulating wanking confessions thrown in your face. What will the well-to-do family�s think of us? � The Steps community alone will be up in arms to try and stamp-out all this �old-chap� & �front-bottom� related mayhem, and with their nicely tanned arms and well choreographed stamping, you know, we don�t stand a chance. There was a time when I thought you were all such dainty wee flowers, gently swaying in the garden of eternal tweeness, how wrong I was. I may have to sojourn to the sadomasochistic list just to spare my blushes and recapture my lost innocence. Only to raise my head again at a time when the unbridled element has coaxed this thread to a climax, spent its copious load of debauched narrative and withdrawn forthwith to a more modest pliant position. Hmm, but for the time being I shan�t try and wade against the tide of 'bodily fluid inducing actions' any longer. And to prove it, here is an extremely wee story written in the eighteenth century (believe it or not) which I think will go down quite well with you wicked wicked young scallywags. Well, It made me laugh like an imbecile anyway, and it did instantly turn my thoughts to you my carnally obsessed brothers & sisters: *** The Horse-Chestnut Flower: *** It is alleged, I would not vouch for it, but some learned men assure us that the flower of the horse-chestnut tree definitely possesses the same smell as that abundant seed which it has pleased nature to place within the loins of men for the reproduction of their kind. A young girl of about fifteen, who had never left her father�s house, was walking one day with her mother and a sophisticated Abb� down an avenue of horse-chestnut trees whose flowers filled the air with the scent which we have just taken the liberty to describe. �Oh good gracious, mother, what an odd smell,� said the girl, not realising where it was coming from . . . �what is it, it�s a smell I know.� �Be quiet mademoiselle, don�t make remarks of that kind, I beg you.� �But why not, mother, I don�t see what�s wrong in telling you that I�ve smelt it before, and I definitely have.� �But, mademoiselle . . .� �But, mother, I recognise it, really I do; Monsieur Abb�, tell me, I beg you, what�s wrong in my saying to mother that I recognise that smell?� �Mademoiselle,� said the Abb�, adjusting his jabot and speaking in a piping voice, �there is certainly nothing very wrong in the fact itself; but we are walking beneath horse-chestnut trees and we botanists admit that horse-chestnut flowers . . .� �Well, horse-chestnut flowers . . .?� �Well, mademoiselle, they smell of spunk.� *** Fin *** I hope you liked that, that last line is such a corker, whoever translated it from the original French version must have had a truly sinister edge to them. Well, its competition time folks: the first person to correctly identify the author gets, err, their very own copy of the hit parade of MY ten biggest wanks (~you lucky lucky person you~). Please calm yourselves, try not to kill anyone in the rush to submit the answer, and send it to me, NOT DA� LIST. (phew! This way I avoid the embarrassment of no-one answering it, ha ha hah, err wait a minute, did I say that out loud or just think it? Pants!) au revoir mes petites fleurs, xxx paul xxx "the fey quality was there, the ability to see the moon at midday" _____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Hi everybody! (Hi Dr. Nick!) >YES....a Scottish accent is a major way to get the girls. My friends and I >all love Scottish accents, so even if you look like Groundskeeper Willie from >the Simpsons, we can close our eyes and pretend you're Ewan McGregor Hmm, ah think a move tae Canada wid be braw right aboot noo :) Hey, my love life can't get any worse than non-existant, can it? >Blair Witches Does anyone have any idea when this hits Britain, as it sounds fantastic? >Austin Powers 2 Was it me, or did this film stagger drunkenly from hilarious to pathetic? Some bits were fantastic, like the Jerry Springer, and others namely Fat Bastard were boring and unfunny. It just seemed like a rehash of all the jokes from the first one with some poop jokes thrown in. *sigh* >>>VICTORY<<< I've suceeded in converting a friend for the first time ever! He's usually into stuff like 4-hero, Chemical Brothers and 808 State (who I find quite listenable) but I managed to convince him to have a listen to Tigermilk. After a few songs, he relaxed all his musical inhibitions and managed to tap along. The crowning glory of the conversion was when the LP finished and he asked me to play it again. All in all, a good day's work :) Quick joke: How many homophobes does it take to change a light bulb?

Sinister: Soap and a rolled up newspaper with a wet end
by Sleeka Sounds 03 Aug '99

03 Aug '99

Dear gang, There was a really shite film on telly last night called "Lightning Jack". It had crocodile dundee in it and haha Keith and Peter's favourite singer, Roger Daltry from the 70s WHO. Roger Daltry from the 70s WHO was a tough cowboy and spoke in a really terrible American accent. It was embarrassing to watch. I was embarrassed firstly for Roger Daltry from the 70s WHO, then for Keith, then for Peter in turn. Mind you it probably wasn't as bad as Bowie in Twin Peaks. That's very interesting, isn't it? Talking of being embarrassed, a few weeks ago former Belle and Sebastian member (and Jon Voight's brother) Chip Taylor was on telly. It was a program called "Songwriters circle" where three songwriters sing their songs in turn, going round in a circle of direction. Chip was blabbing on about his gambling problems again, but luckily he didn't play "My mum was a pisser". Or "Back in 98, before the cloning". Deary me. The other singers where Nick Lowe, who was really good and Jimmy Web, who wrote one of the greatest songs ever, "Wichita Lineman". Unfortunately Chip chose to sing it, and totally fucking butchered it. Poor Chip. What a pisser. I was just thinking, while honey is at updating the photos pages perhaps we could have a new section called "people having a wank". Fluffy Sarah has got a picture of me having a wank, that could be the first one in it. Don't worry, hoho, I've, I've, I've not got the cock and balls out or anything, I'm using the machine. Did I tell you that the remote wanking machine has a shift key and Num lock for the girls? Paul, thanks for sharing The Horse-Chestnut Flower story. It's amazing how much everybody seems to be getting into this wanking thread. Must be the sun or something. You know if you go to vet school that means you have to learn how to digitally manipulate a canine, which means wank off dogs. In fact, It really irks me how undiscussed wanking off dogs is. It's crazy how many of my pals have got dogs, but don't admit to wanking them off if they've been a good boy.
