here's a little personality test, for all of those who don't have anything better to do call it a b&s personality test call it a deep examination of your inner personality call it a small green doberman by the name of horace if you must. actually, no, don't do that.. imagine this situation... you're at bowlie, recovering from missing the delgadoes and everyone that played before them, bopping to teenage fanclub (well, wobbling a little to teenage fanclub while everyone else more or less stood still), dancing to the first night of northern soul (before that got a little bit old) and spending the best part of an hour chalet hunting. you've just tried to go to the beach. didn't find the exit (duh...its the big thing marked "exit") and are a little bit on the wet side but you don't mind because you have lots of booze and a chalet full of people. a knock comes at the door, some people you don't know enter. one of them, unbeknownst to you, is a member of the coolest band on the planet (yeah, in walked sarah cracknell...i couldn't believe it! no, not really) you don't recognise them, but you're being a nice host. do you a. put on belle and sebastian, sing along and talk about how much you like them b. put on airs, pose a little, strut around drinking vodka, wearing sunglasses and muttering darkly about your latest recording contract c. put on a smile, welcome your guests, share your booze with them, offer them use of your bathroom and make sure a good time is had by all. d. turn off "the boy with the arab strap" because you're "not in the mood for it", put on luna, motion incredily indiscreetly to your chalet mate to hide the vodka, try and offer people beer whilst accidentally throwing it across the kitchen because you're too pissed to hold onto anything except the wall...and walk round muttering strange things about duvets. oh..and ask the people in belle and sebastian who they've come to see. scan down to find out your personality type.... a. you are kind, sweet, thoughtful..people hate you b. you are shallow, thoughtless, pretentious...people admire you c. you are just the kind of person people need to balance out the presence of... d. you are me. people cross the street when they see you coming. fortunately my chaletmates were mostly c's. or maybe they just seemed cool in comparison. so...how many of you were d's? ian +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the reborn Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail "sinister@majordomo.net".
