Sinister: Rachel oj - THE FRAUD
by Astrid Wiezell 05 Dec '01

05 Dec '01

Hi sinister, Just wanted to tell you lot who has been e-mailing, off or on-list to Rachel oj, that there actually isn´t a Rachel oj. It was my, now ex-friend, Anna, who was trying to squeeze out everything about what i thought about her, and the daft bastard tried to do it here. i know that some of you have been e-mailing wiht her, but these fact are true: Rachel Smith´s real name is Anna. She is not 17, she´s 15. and sadly enough, a classmate of mine. she never had that boyfriend Hans, there was never that other girl Monica, there was actually no relationship at all, since she was lying. I was very chocked when a friend told me that Anna = Rachel. Since I thought we actually had stuff in common, we hadn´t. It was just Anna saying the things she knew I liked or was interested in. This was by far the greatest lie that Anna had tried to pull. Luckily enough, she failed. I´ve been feeling very bad inside all day, knowing that she fooled me and lied to me for quite some time. a lot more time than reasonable if you ever want to becom friends again. which i don´t. i don´t want to be mortal enemies or something, i just want her to let me be alone. because i do not want to speak one more word to that girl. i thought more about her, but apparently i was wrong. so there you are, dear sinisters. rachel oj is leaving because we caught her redhanded trying to be her. pathetic. i´ve also lost much trust for people on the internet today, worrying about if she´s been lying to me about being someone else as well. it wouldn´t really surprise me, i mean, she being the person she is. i´ve been worrying about My Corduroy Kitten Tom, Joe Vester, not Ken Chu though, he´s too much of a legend, and lots of other people actually not being themselves, but Anna. I can just hope that no-one will get as hurt as I did, or that you feel that you can´t trust people anymore. I feel that way, but then, she was a friend of mine for eight years, but today it has come to an end. and don´t feel sorry for the little twit, she chose this all by herself, and let me tell you that it´s not the first time she´s doing this. i think she needs a therapist. love and stars to all of you, Astrid x _________________________________________s_p_r_a_y_ Här börjar Internet!

Sinister: Your Dolly Mixtures will get you anywhere, Sweety!
by DansonHatcher＠aol.com 05 Dec '01

05 Dec '01

Hey there you. lot. I'm in a perfect state of employed again/new record/lots of other stuff I can't tell you, ha ha ha! Who wrote they like "Eighties Fan"? You're on to something good here you know, once you put it on you'll never switch it off. ever. I've been meaning to for ages, and today I spent my last few pennies on Goldfrapp's Felt Mountain. It was a real mind-over-matter thing cos I had just enough money to buy that album and not alot else, I had to kind of walk straight into the shop, over to the desired purchase and quickly pay and leave so as I wouldn't get tempted to buy any other music. I reckon the lad who works there now thinks I'm quite rude cos in the rush I like ignored his "hello James" and headed straight for the door, The music is just so wonderfulbrill !! so I think all of you should also buy it. Oh and apparently this is common knowledge but do you know that the music on the One 2 One ad is part of "lovely head", I didn't realise. Yesterday was not one of my most productive days. Being between jobs is always a good time to have some fun, I did this! a bit to much and that had landed me in the less entertaining world of skint. The turning point came at about half six last night when I found myself doing a "Beauty Products" wordsearch. I'd only found "Imac leg wax" but understood there to be 24 other "Household names that are essential to the modern women's well-being" Then from within the random letters "Loreal Recital" appeared to me. Fuck! managed to totally disturb myself by the ammount of "Women's Products" I knew. (and understood the use of) This, plus only having the funds to live till next Wednesday weighed heavy on my mind, mmmmmm perhaps it was time to return to the world of work? In a BMW Mini advert stylee..... James goes job hunting, Succeeds, the end (for now). This is good news as I can now afford to pay for....... The XJS I bought last Saturday, The Triumph I'll collect in January, All the people I ow money*, The trip to Poland to collect the Triumph and visit one of the Polska Sinister Massive, The presents I think my family are expecting for Christmas, and New years eve *other parts of my list are more attainable .............................................................................. ................................. Rachel Grapenut: TWEE?, WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS? (if I tell you what Twee is then you have to tell me what a Grapenut is like, that's like a fruit and a nut put together, is it a real food? or is a nut a kind of fruit anyway?) I've said it before but I'm everso gratefull if you read my posts so... If you've read this FAR then you're a Milkybar ChocoSTAR.

Sinister: The day will come soon when I look down the drain
by LilGrape25＠aol.com 05 Dec '01

05 Dec '01

Hello sinsiter, I think I've become a bit of a lurk, I haven't written in ages, so I am now. Life has been rather lovely in all the same way as usual. I talked to my ex-boyfriend for the first time since this summer, which was nice. I'm seeing him this weekend with a bunch of other friends. Sunday starts Hannukah, for which I will be getting a subscription to Magnet Magazine and various art supplies, as I requested. I want to buy all my friends those lovely chocolate eggs that have toys inside, maybe something else too. I'm going to have latkas sunday. this all makes me happy. I might as well put in my 27 and a half cents about IWUTU: I really like the single, but it would be very difficult for me to not like something belle and sebastian did. I'm bias. Maybe if they went really punk or electronic I wouldn't like it, and I'd be really sad, but I like this new, happy sound that IWUTU and Jonathan David both have. My favorite song is I love My Car, currently one of my favorite songs out of anything, but that is always changing. It makes me feel so completely content, complete and happy. The two different instrumental movements or sorts are so fantastic, they calm me down and make me smile, and they complement eachother well, I think. Someone recently put down the phrase "in other news" which I really like. I think its a nice transition phrase. Max (who first posted a few days ago! yay him!) and I had a bit of an argument as to the meaning of Twee yesterday. Our conclusion was that neither of us knew. I've asked before, but could someone please give me a good definition?! Thats all the dribble I can come up with. I love you all, Rachel Grapenut +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

Sinister: Storytelling
by robin stout 05 Dec '01

05 Dec '01

I saw Storytelling last night. Would you like to hear about it? I'm not much of a film reviewer, so don't pay too much attention to my opinions. Go see it yourself. For those of you who dont know yet, Storytelling is actually two films called Fiction and Non-Fiction, which are directed by Todd Solondz, and are only related by their common theme of being about storytellers and storytelling. A large part of the film is supposed to have been cut, exorcised by the studio for being a little too shocking, and amongst the dead celluloid must have been a few Belle and Sebastian songs, because only four are left in the final cut. The film wasn't amazing but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. The first was a neater, better reasoned film than the second, but suffered from the short film's curse of being a film with a punchline. The second was more muddled and tried to make similar points to the first but in a more ungainly way. It does contain a few very funny parts, though, especially those involving Scooby or his little evil brother who always says exactly what he shouldn't. The Belle and Sebastian songs were in the second film too, and to me (I might be a little biased of course) sounded better than the film. So it's a shame the songs and the film are so closely linked. The songs are; The State I Am In I Don't Want To Play Football Scooby driver Storytelling They all sounded good - I liked Scooby Driver a lot. The lyrics and the titles sound like they're closely related to the film. This means it could be difficult to put those songs (or the cut ones) on another album than the Storytelling one. That's not such a bad thing, but it might be hard to listen to these songs without thinking of the film, and in my opinion Murdoch's a far better storyteller than Solondz anyway, so I'd rather hear his version of a story than watch anyone else's. It sounds like Stuart's a little annoyed with Solondz about the way their songs were treated too. But now the film's been made it's difficult to escape this. I hope the songs work as well by themselves and some good songs aren't blurred by an average film. That's all. Very factual today. More of the old nonsense next time I'm sure. Hey, Robs and Robyns - do we have a mix tape team or not?

Sinister: Take Chuey with his bow and arrow, Ken's a mastermind...
by Rachel fruitloop 05 Dec '01

05 Dec '01

Hello Sinister! Like everyone predicted, Miss Fruitloop can't keep up her fevered pace of derivative posts. That's ok, I knew it would happen, too. It's a luxury to be lazy. 163 in my inbox, but at least I've read them all... You're all fantastic! I woke up at a quarter past nine. It was dark. I couldn't tell if it was still tonight, or if it was tomorrow and just dark and raining outside. I didn't remember going to sleep. I panicked, because if it was in fact tomorrow, I should have been leaving the house to get to work at that very moment. But it was tonight. And then I was happy because I had napped for over an hour. That can be really disorienting, but I kind of like that feeling. I can feel the nuances of people slithering under my skin lately. It's an odd sensation but it sort of feels good, but sort of dirty at the same time. I have walked through a threshold into the world where two adorable and enchanting creatures are at odds. Where obsession turns away from past lovers and to the unknown possibility of the *newer*better*faster*. Where forgiveness wraps around me like a wristwatch, reminding me it's time. In this place, I dance in the embrace of the most beautiful boy who knows how to lead like swimming. But we can't breathe underwater and I wonder how long we'll go before we remember this. In this world I take solace in a song written to me by someone I've never met. I am in awe of his ability and his sensitivity and I hope that I am able to take care of him when his feet are cold like mine are right now because my house is drafty. This place is where everything effecting me dwells. My mind wanders... The old lady cat, Agnes, has a cold. She is sitting on my bed sneezing and her poor little kitty eyes are watering. I wish I could give her kitty cold medicine. I hope she doesn't get pneumonia and die. She is going to be sixteen in a couple of months. She's as old as some of you on this list! Ben Apps is in for it when he arrives in my town in 26 days. I'll be spreading my Christmas cheer for him and knocking away his humbug! So brace yourself, Ben! Like everything around here, Christmas time and my family is quite a spectacle! My weekends are in danger of being taken over by #sinister! I was chatting quite a bit this past weekend, in hopes of running into the aforementioned Bunny Apps, which didn't happen. I did blush when I would check back in, and several of you let me know that I missed him. I was also waiting patiently for miss Elise J. Spry, miss Kirsten M. Kenyon and Jimmy G. the heartthrob from the 1950's. I never got to chat with them, either! But, I did get to hang with the legendary Kenneth PY Chu, Stacey Dahling, Andreea, Adorable Danny Farrell, Miss Lindsey Lou, Amy "Rachel" Applejacks, The Cat's PJs, Rachel Sunnyside Up and the alluring Richard J. Gillanders, just to name a few. Miss Lindsey wrote about her life story being "Beautiful" and you all know how I feel about that one. I also identify very much with the song, but I paralleled my reliance on anti-depressants to the lyrics, where Lindsey compares her experiences with boys to it. I loved your post, Lindsey! I'm with you sister! THE PINEFOX wrote a grate one about George Harrison: "He had his own trademarks (in chords and melodies), which I've wished before that I could identify; and almost everything he wrote was musically subtle. One reason, perhaps, why it also feels frail - weak, in need of protection, or of a hug." I thought what you wrote was the most beautiful thing I've read about George Harrison in these days since his passing. I'd also like to add, just to bring this down to the gutter, that George Harrison was hot. H-O-T. Raarrr! But I did shed a tear when he died... As per Kenneth PY Chu's request, I will now address Ken in a public forum*: Ken, you are my little fortune cookie. I want to break you open and tear out your clever words and then eat your crunchy sweet outside covering. When I see your posts in my inbox, my heart leaps with anticipation because I know it will be brilliant or witty or just downright entertaining. You are also H-O-T like Harrison, and talented, too! I live for the day when you will cross this vast ocean and throw me to the ground and ravage me. Just don't mess up my red bowl (haircut). *shhh, don't tell Ben. Dahling Stacey rocks my world! And the other night I promised her a poem: On this slippery slope the only one who laughs last is the one without hope And I laugh as I slide for I take you down with me and you take it in stride. As to not upset Andrew Churchman, I shall add some B&S content (since I have nothing to say about Karate). I'd like to mention that Christmas is coming and I still don't have IWUTU (eyewooty). It's one of those items that I'm hoping to get. I don't know if you know this or not, but I'm quite a fan of Belle & Sebastian... You know what, when I was on the sinister list a few years ago, it was when twattybus first came out, and I always found it so amusing that many people made the album titles into silly sounding acronyms. I am *so* glad to see a resurgence of this on the list now: Big Stu wrote: "I was wearing my TWATTYBUS T-Shirt yesterday, and I had 2 people comment on it." Big Stu also wrote: "I'm disappointed that they changed the name of the new single. IWUTU is a very dull acronym; The Season Has Arrived would make THESHAG. Almost." And Carsmile Steve wrote: "am i the only person not to have heard EYEWOOTY?" Mark Hester wrote: "And I haven't heard "eyewooty" either, incidentally." Incidentally, I have yet to hear it as well. Desmond Torpey wrote: "i seem to recall some poll last year that concluded '69 love songs' was the favourite sinister album of 2000 apart from FISHYCLAP...is the same thing being done this year?" Yeah, is there going to be a poll this year, too? Another thing I remember from Sinister a few years back was that someone said : "'Rollercoaster Ride' too short? Not anymore!" and they talked about playing the record on slow speed! I'm still laughing about it now. I think of that everytime I listen to TWATTYBUS! Everyone seemed to enjoy our B&S on Later with Droolz Holland, and that is fantastic. I've almost accepted the fact that I will never see it. *sniff* Congratulations to Lawrence Mikkelsen who just got married! YAY! I want to see pictures! I adore Chris Pez. Just thought I'd mention that! Also, Ryan, thanks for your attention lately, I know you're super busy! Welcome to Bri, Max, The Cat's PJs, and Maja!!! And anyone I might have missed! Also a big hello to those who made an apperance recently, such as Louise, Mark the Idlebloke, Kerry, Chris Butler and David White! Well, I dunno kitties, I hope you enjoyed reading this! I think it will do. Shout outs and hugs to the usual suspects (of course that includes you, Cutie pie Danny) Extra kisses for that sweetie crush o' mine, Ben! !Viva Rachels! love, Rachel fruitloop __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Sinister: builders and movers and maybe even shakers
by Youn J. Noh 05 Dec '01

05 Dec '01

Hi Sinister, It's a shame no one took Mandee up on the construction site, though she said she was tired of the idea just as she started. I had a similar idea last last summer for their recording studio, after reading a thoughtful article in which it was claimed that their best songs are "built around builds". But would we just stand around wringing our hands, or have we ended up justifying our own existence? (After reading Kieran's posts and the last one from PF, I'm beginning to think so.) Another way the conceit works is that if we're all lined up on a beam (save for Mr. Gillanders, of course), then our view of sinister is obscured(?) by those immediately to the right and to the left of us - real life friends and acquaintances, whatever. But if one of us dares to stand up, then she might see that that fellow in the distance is hardly recognizable. So it's amazing that this community exists at all, even if the cohesion is partially based upon an illusion. Or have we become more like one another? Bookends. Ola, "my name's alexei yuriy gagarin siege of stalingrad glorious 5-year-plan sputnik tractor dynamo moscow balowski. my father was a bit of a communist, you see" this quote is fantastic! Where is it from? (Yes, I'm hardly qualified to say anything about communism.) Frank, heartfelt posts about boyfriends and discos in provincial towns that close at midnight. (I hardly ever go out.) We *are* different! When you return - garrulous and sweet - in a flurry of A4, I wonder what inspires you to write. Once you were speeding west on a train from Krakow (how long has it been?!?!) and ended up in a London cafe. Landmarks to equal those in Remembrance Of Things Past. In the beginning of 'Place Names: The Place', Marcel writes, "It was not for the first time that I felt that those who love and those who enjoy are not always the same." Which got me thinking that he's a bit like Don Quixote - silly, impossibly idealistic, loveable.

Sinister: ela e minha meninha
by Sarah Garrett Sonner 05 Dec '01

05 Dec '01

Hello everyone. I'm not used to this de-lurking business. Up until yesterday I did not have the new single. Because I am lazy. Hey, isn't that pleather Isobel's wearing? Does this call for an exclamation of "phwoar"? I will now quote Ken Chu. >When I woke up I could hear Sturan going "Wig. in. up. du. uzzzz" (that's >the accent), Hearing Stuart's enunciation gave me a deja-entendu (if you will)...am I wrong in guessing Stuart's imitating someone's singing style on purpose? Upon reflection all I can come up with for a source for this freaky feeling is Donovan. Now I think of "E. Leck. Trick. Kah. Ba-na-na...Going. Ta. Be. A. Sud. Den. Crayze..." Help. I wish that Sarah Martin would help me study by singing all of my dry-as-chaff literary criticism readings for me.* Every time I read the word "hegemony" now my eyes automatically close. I think if I heard her sing them I would actually be able to retain more meaning from sentences like "This disavowal of the historical and the contingent was ipso facto a disavowal of any role being accorded to culture in liberal argument." snore. Some Brazilian concert-goers mentioned a cover version of the Mutantes' 'Minha Meninha'. Was the version of 'Baby' like Os Mutantes' too? Next time they ought to do 'Ave Lucifer', or maybe 'Bat Macumba' cause that way they could all join in on the chorus. harhar. A while ago, a starry Sarah asked, >Also, my favourite Tijuana Brass LP is surely Tamla Goes Tijuana. > >What's yours? I am compelled to answer her question, though I suspect it was rhetorical. I must mention Whipped Cream & Other Delights, the album whose green, lascivious cover art I have seen resting in almost every thrift store record bin I've ever dirtied my fingers flipping through. Which is very many. I finally had to pay ten cents for a copy in order for it to stop haunting me so. Who in the band will get to be the cover model for that one? PHWOAR. Yours, xoxSGS *And if this is not Sarah singing you can meet me by the Camera Obscura Wednesday night and talk some sense into my empty noggin. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.

hello sinister. if any large boys in the vicinity of nebraska are in an out-of-twee-character fighting mood, i have a boy. for you. to. attack. and. in my mind. it would be best. if he were. well. maimed, maybe? i have decided, finally, once and for all, to swear off anything with a penis. this may include dogs. and dolphins. it has been said that i am the cutest girl alive, and always having some sort of love crisis, and this is probably true. well. the latter part, at any rate. perhaps i will take some time now to provide an addition to my valuable, oft heralded pulling tips. to foray into What Not to Say When Dumping a Girl. first things first: if you have vague plans to get rid of a lady when you ask her over, DON'T smother her with kisses when she arrives. it's just not nice. that said, here is a nice list of DON'TS: Don't say anything to the effect of "lindsey, you are so amazing." "lindsey, you are beautiful." "lindsey, you are so good for me." Don't say anything to the effect of "i just don't know what to say to you." "you are so complicated....but but in a good way." "i don't know what i want/i don't know what you want/i don't know what happened in the last few days, really." Don't say "lindsey, you're not the perfect woman." (not that any of us thinks we are. this is just a bad context to throw out this sentence. shitty, really.) Don't say "well, part of it IS that you don't do that." "i just have different views than you, and i know we don't want to compromise our beliefs." and by all means -- FOR THE LOVE OF GOD -- Don't say "remember how you said he was searching for something in you that he needed to find within himself? MAYBE THAT'S YOUR PROBLEM." hmmm. this is a good start. Do say "i am an asshole." repeatedly. maybe try groveling a little bit. and the next day. if you see the girl you broke. don't be an asshole. it's just not nice. today i have drug out both the bright eyes and the 3..6..9 seconds of light. and deicided. that i am. beautiful. i am. that song. and i am. fucking tired. but. i did have another cigarette, and i can smell the rebellious smoke of the contraband cylinder clinging to my corduroy jacket like a faint, sticky incense. i really like the way my chest has tightened. like i am forever ready to burst. into what, though, is the fear. i told him he made me really happy and really scared at the same time. and he spread over me like the smoke. and now. i can't get him out. i am a novice smoker who inhales without coughing, and now my heart is paying the price. misslindseylou ______________________________________________________________________________ Send a friend your Buddy Card and stay in contact always with Excite Messenger http://messenger.excite.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister(a)missprint.org.
