There are some things that people said, and I thought I should say some things back. First oooooooon said some things about MC Hammer and: " the first time i saw this extra 4 on the weighter i thought the weighter was broke and cruelly lying. " Oh Oon, I love you. So what do you weigh now, like, 12 kg? I don't know how much a kg is, being American and therefore not up with metricity, but Oon is very very small. Next, Mark Casarotto mentioned orgasms in his subject line, which was funny because the evening before I'd had a very naughty dream in which Mark Casarotto appeared. I can not reveal further details, but my lit teacher's obsession with psychoanalysis has caused me to think more about this Dirty Dream #1 as it were than I'd care to. I think there were also grasshoppers involved. But not in the way that the girl on Temptation Island grabbed that poor butterfly and rubbed its little helpless flapping body all over her own. No, not that way at all. On another Casarotto note, I saw a bit of Bob the Builder this morning on Nickelodeon and was a little disappointed that they had dubbed in American accents. Is the Bob the Builder song headed for the top of the charts in America? CAN HE FIX IT? No...I don't think so. Our sense of irony is not as keen as that of the Brits. Also, there was some discussion of the anti-indie kid diatribe that was posted to the list a while ago. I'm sure it was pointed out before that this list was made by actual indie kids. You did realize that right? C'mon, where's your sense of self-loathing, you corduroy clad bastards?? Then some guy from Cornell mentioned Twin Peaks and Kyle Maclachlan. Pass the mic please, Laura Llew, can I get a WHAT WHAT?! Yeah, I love it when Twin Peaks is discussed on the list. I wish there were more Buffy discussion, now. I went to the UK a few weeks ago. While there, I attended Trousers' New Year's Drunken Eve bash, which I think was probably THE sinister bash of the year so far. Well it is only February. But it was k-rad, thanks Trousers and Mr Hopkins and Sez. And thanks to all you other listees that were nice to me and/or played DDR with me. Especially PRINCESS HONEY who wanked with me and Martin and Marie. Not LITERALLY, honey's too demure for that. I went to Glasgow again and didn't see any members of Belle & Sebastian again which leads me to believe that they DON'T REALLY LIVE THERE and it's all just a big fat rumor. I never meet any pop stars! Except Gav who let me sleep on his floor. On another B&S note, I was in an internet cafe in Stockholm and heard FISHYCLAP being played. I asked the people behind the desk where there were good record stores and they told me about one except I got there and it was sort of not very good. Obviously, Sweden is just not indie enough for me. Or am I too indie for Sweden? Did I use the I word again? Later in Stockholm I heard the Latvian Eurovision 2000 entry being played at an ice skating rink. If my star should fall, or disappear at all...that Latvian man had scary eyes. This is a load of cack. Don't forget to watch Survivor tonight! xoxo Julie PS to The PF: About Martin being embroiled in a heterosexual relationship...I have no idea what you're talking about. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
