Yo! Wazzup you sexy biznackers? all my friends do a biz nack er Biznacker is the word of the century. We all have Tamara, a lovely #sinister girly (who may or may not be on the list- I really don't know) for bringing it to my vocabulary. In fact, biznacker is the only noun I use anymore. So, today. Today, today! Biznacker. I hate biznackers. I decided to spend my biznacker at biznacker working on my term biznacker for biznacker. I hate my biznacker. I don't know why I ever to decided to go biznacker. It's full of biznackers who don't want to learn. And worse yet, I think I'm failing some of my biznackers. Erm. So. I got dressed up sexy as sexy can be for my Sunday Study Session. Outfit: 1) Black shoes from payless. Nothing terribly fashionable, but in the words of the fantastical meelkmaid, "you just can't wear brown shoes with those pants, honey." Which brings me to: 2) Black glittery super tight jeans for girls. They were a gift from someone. The crotch is a bit high (Jesus, I ask you now: protect my testicles, please) but my bum is emphasized by the fit so I'm willing to take a few, erm risk. 3) Yes, the robins egg blue cashmere turtleneck! Hi, my name is Sex, I'm here to study. I'm listening to a minidisc I made before coming out here with "Rhoda" on it. I like a fag with my Special K too. Wow Special K is so good. I didn't know they had it in the UK! Saturday was a big day for my family. My dad got a job! We've been staying in a shelter for the last three months so it will be nice to get out. I think we're going to get an apartment in Detroit. Yeah, I know, Detroit isn't the best city in the world, but it's a place of our own, you know? I'm pretty thrilled. I might get a CD player for Christmas, too! I'm hoping one day we'll get a computer so I don't have to use the stupid ones at school. Of course, now I don't have any motivation to keep my full scholarship here. Whatever. What do you all think of Hey Mercedes? I think they're great. Look: e s h u o o u h e s It's a house made out of letters!!!! Love, Christiaan *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* ****Special Sunday Scrotum Quotes!**** "First, decide who's playing. This may be difficult, as some people seem to take offense at genitalia on their heads.

Sinister: 13 flaming vicars
by Sarah Garrett Sonner 03 Dec '00

03 Dec '00

Forgive me, Sinister. This message contains some foul language. But mostly towards the end. I really should have posted earlier, when I had a working scanner, and could've joined the foxy ranks of D. Parker, D. Bowie, and J. Peel/D. Moore on the photo pages. I should have posted when Steve C. wrote about girls liking bad boys, because I don't go necessarily for the bad ones, but always the inappropriate ones. Which is worse? Then again I'm probably more inappropriate than anything. I should have posted when I was sad to read that Mark C. signed himself fat and sad rather than the more optimistic big and gay, and when I was happy that Laura Llew said that smutty thing she said about butter and muffins. I should have posted when I came across a defintion of Twee (c. 1850) as: to "be in a twee," to be overcome with fear or vexation. Only I was just that. I also should have posted when people were talking about Tom Baker, because he wrote a book called "The Boy Who Kicked Pigs" and it rocks. As good as "Creepy Susie" by Angus Oblong, and in the same category, though not caliber, as Edward Gorey. Has anyone else read these? Pleasantly perverse. T.B. even calls himself "the ultimate Dr Who" in the author's notes. The illustrations have the best captions--as seen in my subject line. Speaking of vicars, I realized today, while listening to a song that I don't even have to name, that I only encounter vicars in a musical context. Other than taking people to one side, giving them confirmation, and occasionally sporting tutus I'm in the dark about what they really do. And rhyming with vicar we have wicker, specifically wicker people, appearing in at least 2 songs that I can think of, and I have an even foggier idea of what that means. Any enlightened person who can answer these queries may write to the address above. And now I'm going to talk about "fucking." What made me write now was reading Whosit's rant at the enter.ie page. Gerunds can be tricky. Instead of the context of the writer's (presumably derogatory) use of it as Belle and (Fucking) Sebastian I read it instead as an enthusiastic word of emphasis. Belle and Fucking Sebastian! Hell Yeah! Turn it up! Shout it from rooftops and moving vehicles. Scrawl it on a bathroom wall. Now that would be inappropriate AND bad. I've since been amusing myself far too much with inserting "fucking" into song titles. The wrong fucking girl. There's too much fucking love. Is it wicked not to fucking care? It makes everything sound so badass. I also giggle too much when people say "effing." I'd like to say something insightful about pop music, but maybe next time that will happen. The only things I can think of now are odd bits, about how David Gedge sort of looks like my landlord. And how there's a Gap ad with a Badly Drawn Boy soundtrack. And how the other day I caught a bit of a Britney Spears TV special, wherein her mic/backing tape kept cutting out mid-song and all I thought was "hmm that seems almost poignant somehow." Since July when I last wrote I got struck by lightning and got meningitis and almost got chickenpox and have been exceedingly grumpy and profane. It's all true. And I still fucking love Belle and Sebastian. Apologetically yours, xo Sarah _____________________________________________________________________________________ Get more from the Web.

Sinister: the wonder years,pine needles and world cat domination
by Desmond Torpey 03 Dec '00

03 Dec '00

greetings sinister people.... ....do you mind if i have a little depressed moany bit in this post?....if you dont want to read it then feel free to skip to the bouncier,shinier bit or skip the whole lot and do something more interesting than listening to me whinge...whatever takes your fancy i suppose.... **************WARNING! DEPRESSED MOANY BIT!*********** ...i had a really horrible night on friday....one of those nights when something really significant or it seems so at the time)hits you and really makes you miserable....looking around the pub i was in with my mate and his girlfreind i realised how fast things change and how you cant really do anything to stop it.....a year ago me and this freind were really really close but since then everythings just drifted.....i dont even think we really like each other anymore,we've grown up and away from each other..really sad....because nothing ever stays the same no matter how much you want it to.....people just fall out of love and out of freindship really easily ( or so it seems to me ) and in a matter of months you forget all the stuff that seems really important at the time.......that probanly didnt make any sense whatsoever....it might have sounded better with a wonder years style voice over.....thats the boo-hoo bit over with....sorry peeps........ **********HOORAY! SHINY BOUNCY BIT! ****************** ....i got out of bed this morning feeling a bit of a state but then i looked over at the date and realised...hurrah! its nearly crimbo!.....i know some people have commented that they hate the whole thing but i really cant help getting excited.....every other time of the year everyone is wrapped (pardon the pun)up in their own lives but for this one day people will be doing the same traditional things at almost the same time......drunken uncles,tears and recriminations over the turkey and pine needles in your feet...its the same everywhere and that just gives me a really nice feeling....i suppose as usual i'm celebrating it for all the wrong reasons but i do go to church on christmas morning so thats some compensation for the big Man....and i know that there are hundreds of people having an awful time while people are being greedy and gluttonous....but i reaaaaaallllyyy cant help loving christmas......but its three weeks away so i'll say no more about it....much.... ...i'm mightily confused by all this cat talk anyway....have i joined the wrong list?.....is it some kind of world cat federation miowaing their way through every mailing list on the web until world domination and fireside cushions are theirs?.....it would be quite nice if cats did rule the planet though.....everyone could just stroll around in the middle of the night wailing on garden walls,stealing milk from doorsteps and prowling round alleyways hoping for a quick one with the female next door....come to think of it....thats what goes on every saturday night around 3am in these parts....perhaps the cat federation is basing themselves in sunny swindon......am i rambling?...i think i am...so i'll scuttle off...ta ta.... do something pretty while you can...... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: jj72 vs bjork
by Alex Jackson 03 Dec '00

03 Dec '00

Hi, just thought I'd say I went to see jj72 last night and they were fantastic! It's not often that bands play in my town, because people here tend not to listen to anything so readily identifiable as music, so it's nice to see some making an effort. I'm off to see Ash soon too, and the Bluestones in Belfast on Tuesday! Also, I'd like to ask if anyone else thinks one of the Waitresses in the 13th note looks a bit like Bjork, I mean, in a nice, qwite cute, way? I was there for lunch with Amy Jackson last Saturday when in glasgee, and I just had to write something akin to that on the back of the bill... I think the java programming environment is sending me mad. All the best!

Sinister: I'll bReAk YoUr LeGs iF YoU StoP mE DaNciNg / a year after!
by velocity farewell 03 Dec '00

03 Dec '00

Hello the land of sinistah! It's been a while... many things HaPPeNeD! GHD my bleu prince showed his fluffy head again, Mark-o-C posted as well, and so did miss lovely fellow spinisterine Laura Llew! There some new faces around, some come in bright colours, some just faint away, others explode in the sky like verbal fireworks and dissapear... I booked my tickets for London, arriving on the 29th December with my darling Elena, if things go well, SpOoKy the DoG may be arriving with me and I expect certain listees to keep their promise and take her for her walkies in the park... I'm really tempted to start slagging holidays off, but I won't; not this time... I liked so much though what Pamela (was it?) said about smoking booths in big stores... there's a certain racism against smokers innit? I went to see BaXeNdALe last Sunday... they were absolutely GrEaT! I know some people in this list despise Baxendale but I do love them so! Since I've first heard them a year ago... I remember when my friend Dmitry brought "music for girls" and he played it in my front room... we started jumping around and, yes, we loved them instantly! I like their sounds, I like the playful way they deal with music... it's kind of ironic and it's kind of sad sometimes... it seems like they declare their childishness in a disarming way, refusing to grow up... and they're stylish, in an 80s, yet, mulet-less way!! So, on Sunday I had to drive for 240km to go to the city where they were playing... my friend's car broke down and having nowhere to leave spooky the dog, I thought that there was no way of me getting there for the gig... I went really mad about it... so, I called a cab and paid 1/10 of my monthly salary to the cabbie! The gig place was half full when I arrived with some friends... Johnk from this list was there as well and I spotted a girl with a 'if you're feeling sinister' tshirt on... I didn't talk to her though, so, if she's in the list, sorry... We got completely pissed before the gig drunk a bottle of vodka... Senay was telling stories about how she broke one of her teeth whilst Alex and Tim were fooling around with toy-speaking-trumpets! Then, they went on stage and none of us stopped dancing through their whole set! We were quite dissapointed that they didn't play "switzerland", but then, Tim came back on stage and played the song just by himself with an acoustic guitar... whilst images were projecting behind them on a big white screen "PoP wiLL SaVe oUr SouLs" and "gO EleCtRiC"... Walking around and talking with people after the gig, I heard a radio producer saying that Senay should be singing with the Osmonds!! And the night was still young... But that was my bax-story from last Sunday... "she always cries on Sundays", well, not this one... B&S context... baxendale started a song with a sample of "dog on wheels"... yes, that's all... My new friend little Johnn, aged 7 years old, brought me a bouquet again... this time was a bouquet of uprooted peppers! I could use some of them for BeAn SoUp I suppose... I bumbed on a car the other day with my scooter and I lost a little piece of its front... I bought a CD by Brian, a band I've discovered lately and I'm totally enchanted... they're early 90s and irish... I think... that's all... take care you lot... hugs Vel xxx ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: Christmas Presents Exchange
by Joan of Dark 03 Dec '00

03 Dec '00

Oh Christmas twee!!!!!! Oh Christmas twee!!!!!......... oooops!!.well...*cough* .......ehhhm...........: )) hewwo all!!! It is said that Christmas is approaching , or so I heard........Dunno really....... And someone told me that people usually make presents to each other during those days.........Is that true????? I mean, do nice people really make presents to their beloved ones and to other people they care for.....??? *sinister people nod yes* Well.this is like, GrAtE!! *Joan thinks* (yeah , she does that sometimes too) So people....... I guess.........(and correct me if I'm wrong) We're nice......yeah, we really are........and we certainly care for each other, even to an extend...and some of us might have their beloved ones on the list.........so.....seeing as we meet with all the above pressupositoins.....I think we're officialy qualified to exchange presents with each other........ Well, things are quite like that.....I got the whole idea inspired by the auction that was going on some time ago. I was truly amazed by all the wonderful things people offered to do so as to raise money at first place but, ultimately spreading some happiness over the world and bringing smiles on the faces of their fellow people...... On the other hand , I've come accross many list members lately,whose offerings were not bid for and some others, including me, that for various reasons didn't make it to bid for something........All this creativity and good will is not going to be received by anyone.....it's a shame really...... And then....I thought.....since the listees that offered to make something wouldn't get any money for this anyway , well....why not making something and giving it to someone else, but this time -getting- something back as well??? And seeing as the christmas holidays are almost hear, this would be a great time to carry out this presents exchange....this could actually be an Xmas presents Xchange (though not that crude as the name!!: )) Most people that have heard of this before, mainly on #sinister as well as my closest friends, my mum and our lovely list mum Honey, think its a great idea , so let me tell you the plan...... First and most important: Although this exchange is STRICKTLY going to occur between current list members, it is NOT compulsory for everyone. So, only those of you that are really interested in taking part should do so. And secondly: This is not restricted to just people that celebrate Christmas.....it just happens to help the spirit of exchanging presents....So other people that don't celebrate Christmas are very welcome!!! The proccess is as follows: You will have to send me an email to silmaril(a)stargate.gr with your : a) full address b) the email address with which you are registered to Sinister so that the verification will be carried out and on which you will receive your exchange partner c) the number of presents that you would like to make (you will see why) ......but this will have to be done by Wednesday, December 6th..so there's a time limit of 4 days to send me this email..... Your email address will be then put on a list from which the drowing will be carried out. It is going to be included as many times as the number of the presents you want to make is. That means taht in this way you are going to get as many presents as you give ....Cunning??: )) You will then receive the full address of the person you will make a present for on the email address you have given me.And here's the tricky part......the receiver doesn't get your address.....In the same wat you will get a present from someone else....a third listee to whom your address was given......so the presents' excange goes around the list like a chain ...... In this way you get to meet 2 people on the list instead of one, something that would happen if you received a present from the person you send to.....And this is the idea of it....it's not the actual presents, it's a chance to get to meet someone....to mess with fate's plans a little...who knows what friendships might come out of this?? In your envelope you may include your address as well , so that the other person is going to know who you are and contact you... As for the kind and value of presents that are going to be exchanged...many people asked me if they should be bought...The answer is NO. It's not compulsory for presents to be bought and/or expensive , although if someone wants, he/she can do it of course......The whole idea behind it is that the value of a present is not monetary, its sentimental and thats what makes it so special....the effort and amount of love and care you've put into it .Only then does a present become a bond between two people...... I saw so many wonderful things being described in the auction pages.......crocheting ,knitting and emroidering, making of tapes (which I suspect will be what the whole exchange will be revolving around), drawings, bead necklaces...let your creativity run wild!!!You may want to share witht he other the feelings that the reading of your favourite book brought to you, by sending him/her a copy, or the sheer pleasure of your favourite candy melting in the mouth, by sending a bag of it.....Just please try to bring yourself in the position of the receiver and....do your best.... .......it all comes down to good will in the end and the inexplicable happiness one may get from giving..... That is all for the moment.....Please feel free to join and , as misscrush says: "Let Love Flow!" All my love and sugar-coated snowlakes.....

Sinister: snow and scrapbooks
by colin thornton 02 Dec '00

02 Dec '00

Snow today. After work, I chanced upon a new "Scrapbook" shop, which is dedicated to the tradition of memory preservation. I marched into the store and told them that I had a vision and that they must hire me immediately. They didn't hire me, but they will (someday). When they do, I'll play Lazy Line Painter Jane and Photo Jenny on repeat all day long. I met a girl Belle and Sebastian style. She mentioned that she liked B&S, and I became infatuated with her. I sent her a B&S postcard asking her on a date, and she replied and said that "anybody who likes Belle and Sebastian has got to be worth knowing". Happy happy happy happy...nothing more to say.

Sinister: when do i have time to shop for car insurance?
by fiona 02 Dec '00

02 Dec '00

howdee sinistereenies, it's been a long time we shouldn't have left you without a dope beat to step to. i've so much to tell you, but having just read through a million billion sinister posts, it all seems to have got lost along the way, but i'll try my bestest. i'm prolly going to paraphrase loads of people, but i can't remember who most of you are, so umm.. sorry in advance... ok, i'll start with the lovely jenowl, who fell over a lot. i fall over a lot too, i don't think i ever learnt to walk properly, or maybe i should just start tying my shoelaces, which, incidentally i haven't done for years. i fell down the stairs on a bus the other day, it was slippery and i ended up with my hands stretched out above my head, clinging to the rail while my feet dangled beneath me. it hurt. people stared. nevermind eh? lots of people wrote really long posts about stuff i wasn't interested in, props to them for being more cultured than me, but i skimmed and pressed delete a lot. some people talked about cats. a lot. please stop now, you're scaring me. raaaah. someone actually mentioned belle and sebastian, which got me to thinking, are we organising multiple voting for legal man, on john peel's festive fifty? i hope not. there are loads of records much more dserving. eg URUSEI YATSURA - LOUCHE 33. sorry, i'm a one girl urusei yatsura promotion machine. and still nobody like them *sniff* i know it's a while ago now, but, the auction, i can't wait to accompany dj pain to tigermilking, i'll make sure he does a good job of it. when is it btw? i won mr kenneth and his juggling skills, i'm going to make him do more than juggle hehehehe. with all this talk of eminem, i'm wondering whether to go and see him when he comes to the uk in february (well, i was wondering that anyway without reading the list, but i like to keep things relevant). i think it would be quite good to see him, but i'm a little afraid of the kind of clientele an eminem gig would attract. as a general rule i'm not a fan of kids with big trousers and chains. talking of clothing, i've recently taken to wearing skirts. during the day i mean, because it seems that everyone in the world is wearing flares and they're just not special anymore, so i seems to me that knee length skirts are the way to go. a little chilly, though, but you do dry out more quickly when its raining and a bus has just driven through a puddle right next to you. and sympathy to idleberry, i wasn't quite sure i understood what she was talking about in her last post, but it sounded bad, so hugs and stuff. i went to complain to my house agency yesterday that my room is damp, i was all ready to shout at them in a big way, (i even took boyfriend for moral support and nods of agreement) but the woman was all smiley and said they would send a man round. i don't suppose they'll do anything though. it'll probably be the same man that put up kitchen cupboards which fell off the wall after we put stuff in them. now, fiona's gratuitous piece of advertising : friday 8th december , the cellar (behind the university students union) plays host to manchester's newest indie night, indigo. it features the djing "talents" of your's truly and we'll be making some attempts to bridge the gap between mainstream and underground indie (its a big room, i don't think we could fill it just by playing yo la tengo and magnetic fields) so if anyone is even vaguely in the manchester area on friday, please come along, its only £3 / £2.50 nus (or £2 if you join my society) and it'll be students union bar prices all night. yey!! i'm going to have to go know, as its dark and i've only got a trakkie top to keep me warm on the long trek to the bus stop. oh, but hello to mr charlie who is a person on the sinister list that i went to primary school with. bizarre! i'll try not to leave it so long next time, love and irn-bru, fiona. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/worldofirnbru IRN-BRU!!! http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/wrappedinfakefur URUSEI YATSURA!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Save Ferris (Gentle Waves)
by Ian Hatcher 02 Dec '00

02 Dec '00

Helloooo one and all, I know this isn't a fifteen minute job (sorry Honey), but I'm just telling people about the Gentle Waves meet-up tonight. So far, only myself and the lovely Sophie have signed up, but I don't know where I'm meeting her yet (as you can see, this has been planned with the detail of a military operation :)), but I'll be the one with the cow bag.

Sinister: how deep is the puddle?
by Phillip Runion 02 Dec '00

02 Dec '00

dear sinister, all my thoughts and careful obsessing. . . frivolous.?.? i thought of the perfect christmas present for one of my closest friends. it was meant to be a first edition of Catcher in the Rye, but low AND behold, that christmas present would have cost $3000. i can't buy it, obviously, because of the price. But, i would, if only i could afford it<sigh>. i guess that's good intentions, or it's the thought that counts in a nutshell. A simpson's pez dispenser instead. marge, no less. not even bart, or at the very least otto or lenny or moe or ned or maude or KRUSTY or one of the numerous characters voiced by Phil Hartman, god rest his soul. i'm thinking of a song or two, a girl and a boy and a rendevous. I'll see the girl of my dreams again on Dec, 21 as i'll be going to Edinburgh. The girl that set the standard. . .the girl that i would take the proverbial flying bullet for. Ah!! to be an indie kid at the tender age of fifteen. I guess, technically speaking, i've only been an indie kid since i was eighteen and a half. and I'm no where close to being a hipster. my pants aren't nearly tight enough. . . and bed head doesn't work with my head of hair. . .and i don't work at OM (dream job, yeah). the movie made by the guy who did pi (which was dope)=> my friend told me today that it was possibly the best movie ever made=> i'll be going to see it. my anticon discs arrived by post today. the air is filled with the favoritest thing going right now. "Deep Puddle Dynamics was inspired by people who sit around all day at the mall with their mouth open." "Dose One's dad burned down the ROTC building while his roomate took a bullet." His son is just as hard-core, except in a "i like to chill with my cat" kind of way. he even likes eminen (it's written on his arm in a completely condesending and sarcastic manner.(editorial)) the song with dido is tight, though. and my name is when it was on underground hip-hop shows and not being played out to the upmost. it changes things for some reason. it really does. You won't hear anticon on the radio. GYBE is doing three shows in NYC next week!!! what was gogron talking about two posts ago? "i am alluding and rightfully so." you were, right? enlightenment, please. privately/publically Is looking forward to the day your girlfriend leaves to spend a year in italy the best way to go about breaking up? I didn't think so either. I'm not destructive and/or brave and/or whatever it takes to tell a girl that you don't like that much is. Maybe i'll luck out and she'll do it. Roommate troubles. Mine can't compare, but still. My roomate is Korean and is always singing something in Korean. There is this one song that sounds like A Whole New World: i hear it all the time and it sucks. The other day he stayed up till about 4 in the morning searching pornsights for an explicit video by a famous Korean singer, which amounts to him looking for a Mariah Carey finger fuck fest. . . . which, put in those terms. .doesn't sound quite bad. it was the mouse clicking. . .grr. I like him but not when i'm trying to sleep is the bottom line, i guess. props to lisa's picture on the picture page. the lisa with the glasses. (although, if my style was different, the other lisa picture, which was trashy in a good way, too,) I yearn for air popped popping corn, a little salt, and some hot dipping butter. phil r _____________________________________________________________________________________ Get more from the Web.
