Sinister: Ain't gonna work for no soul-suckin' jerk
by Heatrexo＠aol.com 25 Mar '00

25 Mar '00

Hi Everyone.. It's me..the grumpest heather on the planet!! "Why are you grumpy?" Oh..thanks for asking...(that felt like Annette Benning in American Beauty... Ok...i'll tell ya... I worked until nine. After work, I rushed to the library to meet my friend at this poetry reading. This poetry reading isn't your average reading. It's a high school one... which just reaks of ickiness. It was a high school one..for his high school. I knew some of the people. I was prepared for it this time. I listened to all the limericks...and I didn't complain once! well...actually under my breath a few times.. More importantly..SHE was there.. not like I didn't except her not to be there. But I almost forgot how grumpy she makes me!!! Grrrrr! This poetry reading is all of other people's poetry..some people read originals.. most is from books.. anyhow. There is something about her voice. She reads a lot of poems from the books. Each one she reads with a certain i'm-better-than-all-of-you tone. And when other people read, she sits and rolls her eyes. HER SHOES!!!! she has these shoes that belong on a witch or a Cure fan... They look like shoes that belong on women with big calves. So... I decide to go home. I was walking out with me friend explaining how I was tired and kind of grumpy.. and I was running to my car because I couldn't get "Belle and Sebastian" the song... out of my head.. He was saying how he wanted to listen to B&S too... I told him to go home...then he said the unthinkable... "If i wanted to listen to them IYFS is by the stereo inside".....i automatically said who brought it?! Thinking if he said he did, I could yell at him...But IT WAS HERS!!! i don't like her more now! I don't know... If it was someone I admired, I'd admire them more..you know.. but since I can't stand her....this makes me hate her more.. I'm just a bitch..who's protective of her favoritest band in the whole wide world! Am i the only one who's like that? I hope not. Well... I'm off to sleep. Laters, Heatherxoxo "Moo."-a cow. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Trying to see lightbulbs from this side
by Maarit 25 Mar '00

25 Mar '00

Hello sinister, Jordi mentioned "Funny games" and I agree- it is a must-see film. Partly because of the music. A question. I now have a faint idea what kind of music you lot are into. Apart from B &S apparently. But are any of you into Dimitri from Paris? ( "A Very Stilish Fille" is a perfect song for dressing up...). And a more specific question to french people on the list. Have you ever heard of a band Ollano? It was probably Jason who asked which song we lost our virginity to. Mine was Steve Vai's "Tender Surrender". I quess the name is pretty nice. Or true. Nick pointed out: > Please remember that not all of us go along with the idea that >being a B&S fan means being a sickly sweet thumb-sucker and proud of it. >I don't mind if people want to be that way, but please don't drag me into it. I guess I should give him my list crush vote for this. Oh, I'll wait for more. Then there was Heather who said: >.... then they showed this maquiladora of middle aged mexican women >shining the dildos.. Think of her children who get asked. "Hey, what's your mother up to?". "Erm, well, shining dildos" Well, now that you've reached so far- this is my first proper post. Proper used in a blurry way ;) If there are any spelling mistakes forgive me, it's late. Or call me a dick slap. It's late. And remember kids- tequila can't really harm you. Unless you drink a lot or not at all. Maarit I guess I must have messed it up --- Gus Gus +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: pink bits
by adam apparatus 25 Mar '00

25 Mar '00

i'm supposed to be writing a 500 word essay on "the awakening", by kate chopin, but i never was much of a feminist (there's a subject line for ya, oi?), so i'm writing you lot instead. i am happy about the new single. my take is that it's self parody... "we are tough perverts, not twee kids!" but anyway. it makes the wait easier, eh? it makes you wonder about "judy", though... so far, she's shown up in three songs i can think of... "judy and the dream of horses", obviously, where she was a high-school kid as usual (i think), "the rollercoaster ride", where she was -still- a frumpy high-school kid... and now "judy is a dick slap". could stuart have a recurring character, maybe? how about a little good-old-fashioned sinister banter on this subject? i need a hug. - adam aconover(a)optonline.net Tempus Fugit is at: http://www.i2.i-2000.com/~conover/tempus/main.html +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

On 23 Mar 00, at 14:30, Kristen Mullarkey muttered into a little tape recorder: > I have a paper on that topic if you would like it. > Very good book. > Hope all is good it is a beautiful day FINALLY. no, i got it done, but thanks for the offer! yeah, beautiful days... i walked home from the bus stop reading kerouac, and it was gorgeous, and when i got home i found a package from the girl i was in love with... she had sent me a birthday present, a cd and a tape with a handmade booklet of colored paper. so i sat out on the warm front porch and read the letter and read kerouac and played guitar, and it was lovely.

Sinister: Stuff..
by Martin Graham 25 Mar '00

25 Mar '00

I was thinking these thoughts recently and realised that the sinister List was the place to air them and get feedback from LikeMindedSouls. I've been suffering from extreme coincidence syndrome lately. Things keep going my way and positive experiences seem to be queueing up to force themselves upon me. This is a good thing, but it kinda fills me with dread, like maybe I'm about to die or something. This started me thinking about Heaven and the afterlife and stuff. So I tried to picture heaven, and all I could see were the people I love who have gone before. My aunt Margaret, who died of leukemia 2 years ago. An amazing woman, a beacon of sensitivity and intellect. My uncle Tommy and my auntie Pat, good, solid people struck down before their time. My little cousin Ally, who died aged 17 way back in '91. I can still see his smirk and hear his voice. My Grandpa John. He sang 'Ragtime Cowboy Joe' at family parties. My Granny Nessie, daft as brush but great with it. My Granny May and Grandpa Wullie, smiling at the chaos their grandchildren brought to their home. My aunt Rosemary, taken by cancer before she turned 30 back in 1984. I see all these people waiting for me, and they are smiling and happy. They wait for me and they want to talk to me, to tell me how the rest of their lives have unfolded and to fill in the gaps of stuff I don't know. I don't see this as any kind of paradise or utopia, merely the natural conclusion of existence, to be as one with those who brought me into the world. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Here goes everything
by Painting With Light 24 Mar '00

24 Mar '00

Ever had one of those days where you'd rather gnaw off your own limbs than be o n this planet? Frustration is that the word? Some idiot for the 'Student Loans Company' sent me a letter today. Demanding th e return of over £30,000. They think I've done 3 degrees, eek I haven't even done one! They contacted the tax people who say I don't exist (well I was beginning to doubt it but who am I to question?) therefore the Loans people have the power to obtain any money I do have and sue me for the rest huh?? STILL WITH ME? Then I went to yell at my old boss because he hasn't paid me which made me feel a little better. Then I changed into shorts and t-shirt (it's hailing here) and ran all the way to the computers just to remind myself I was alive.* Now I have a voice and I can speak to you my shiny stars hmmmm perhaps this was not the most endearing of interruptions to the Sinister Settlement. Still for now it's the best you're gonna get. Does it help to say that I am writing this in a public computer room and my fri end is trying to cheer me up with her hand somewhere rather 'private'? Love and wild moorland to you all PWL * B+S content, I was singing Lazy Line Painter Jane! +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
