Funnily enough, you were the one being removed for abusive language on the indiepop-list, weren't you ?
we know it's the same old story, but i can't BEAR to not point out that, y'know, on second read, this kid is a totally smarmy fuck!
You're breaking the news ... took you another read, though. §;^D
don't you agree?
Of course, everybody silently agrees ... you forgot to teach us that "High Fidelity" was a magazine and Hornby is the colloquial expression for a tiny little insect, though. §;^D A harmless donkey@monkey.org sample for the uninitiated, HoneyPie will be delighted ...
(anyone read High Fidelity?)
Well, I SURE WON'T be picking up the mag now, not if PINDICKS like you have the audacity to CASUALLY throw a MAGAZINE NAME out as REFERENCE to your own HIGHLY-EVOLVED PERFECTION as a HIPSTER [that fuckin' guy is next], which is akin to listing your fave bands, a tactic employed by submoronic pre-language-formation throwbacks like Picky LickWick, or whatever.
And may I be the first to congratulate you on your diverse tastes, you SELF-CONGRATULATING EIFFEL-WANKING MUNGLUNG! Find a fucking THERAPIST!
You've been warned.

so here's one for our american cousins: sat this saturday evening watching tv on a rare occassion and on comes this Dawsons Creek show and we sit and guffaw like good uns. Many reasons for these outbursts of unrestrained frivolity but main ones caused by: 1. the sight of a high school english teacher snogging a 15 year old boy. i mean... we tried thinking about the same situation happening at our school, but the duchess squeeled 'don't go there!' So we didn't. But i mean... sheesh. But then wasn't there that story a while back about a 12 year old kid making his teacher pregnant? Scary world. 2. The High School dance was grooving to what sounded like a soundtrack stright outta the 80s. Is US High School really like this? or just in trashy tv shows set in the middle of nowhere? it was weird. At least in our high school dance last summer we had a kid chopping some house tunes and some drum'n'bass. I mean, they could have at least played some B&S. Still, it's heartening to see another show about the crushes that simmer between next door neighbours. Or something. Best line? 'He's so un-kissworthy' and me desperately wanting it to have been 'he's so uncrushworthy'. Maybe we can play spot the indiepop reference there, so that, uh, whoever slagged off the P!O!P! boy andreas can add me to his kill list :-) answers on a postcard please to the usual address. stay strange kids, it's the only way to be. the duke -- i'm not brave, i'm not special, i'm not any of those things. ------------------------------- Tangents On-Line http://www.virtual-pc.com/tangent/ PO Box 102, Exeter, EX2 4YL, UK tangent@lineone.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

I also caught the Creek for the first time yesterday. I was sniggering at these 25-year-old actors playing 15-year-olds, recreating the good old high school feeling, when the 80s soundtrack was interrupted by... our very own Gina G! This must be what passes for cutting edge in America. I'm still laughing. Can't wait till next Saturday... Mark ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .

Gee, I didn't think this show would hit the UK for a while yet. I've never missed an episode :P It's a soap opera a la first-year BH90210 and couldn't possibly be taken too seriously. Let me just say that none of the main actors/actresses are over 20, but the characters certainly seem over 15. Oh well. And please don't think this show reflects cutting edge music in America. Most of the music they use is crap. Oh well. At least they've used local (Chicago) stalwarts, The Slugs, twice (Soon to celebrating their 15th anniversary. Their 3rd album might come out this year). Katie Holmes ("Joey") is the cutest actress EVER!
I'm still laughing. Can't wait till next Saturday...
Thankfully it's on Tuesday here. Otherwise I'd be out having fun and not watching TV. What're you doing home on a Saturday night? Jess said:
Dawson's Creek is so bad cos, like all TV series, I suppose, the kiddies always have some major crisis conveniently solved in one hour episode...while we sit in my ugly windowless cardboard box of a skool with the principals toting walkie-talkies around in case someone tries to do something like -gasp- go to the bathroom without a pass!!
If TV were so much like real-life boredom, then why the hell would _anyone_ wanna watch? I certainly don't remember anyone in _my_ high school looking so goddamn cute. Real life can be awfully boring sometimes. That is why Hollywood spends millions of dollars everyday to entertain us. I find solace in taking advantage of that. Aadam

Well it wasn't on very late, and I DID go out afterwards. Didn't get back until 2 as it happens. Plus I've got postgrad exams in three weeks, so I should have been working anyway. I think we can watch it for amusement value without taking it too seriously, can't we? One thing I always notice about American shows is how unrealistically good-looking everyone is. They must apply make-up before every shoot. This doesn't do much for their believability (is that a word?) Must work now...

Heej annna. Yes, stavningen är på topp. Jag har det lite trångt nu i maj, tar studenten & så... Men i juni passar mig alldeles utmärkt. Man kanske kunde åka ut till havet? Frågan är om Morrissey kan simma bra nog. Vi vill ju inte att han ska drunkna, eller hur? Idag mördade jag nästan en av mina lärare. Han berömde mig jättemycket och tyckte jätte mycket om det jag hade lämnat in. " Men du får bara G för du flaxar alltid runt på din stol så mycket..." Det kan han ju inte sätta betyg på!!! skit gubbe. så jag blev riktigt irriterad hela dagen. annars är allt bra hoppas jag? Jag mår prima, var på bal i fredags. Fick nästan en hel karaff rödvin på min klänning, men blev i sista sekunden räddad av min bordskavaljer. Så det hela var en mycket trevlig afton... Hoppad du ser fram emot picknicken lika mycket som jag. Har du bokat jumbojet och så? Annars kanske det är dags att göra det. Puss & kram Vanessa Lessen, råkade deleta alla mina brev + dina, därför var jag tvungen att skicka det till alla... I'll be your dog, be my god ----------------------------------------------------------------------- . This message was brought to you by the Sinister mailing list. .

HoneyPie can't be bothered even reading it frankly. Could you both stop now please, instantly? Another word and I will put away your toys, ethan, and Andreas, please we really don't need more examples. Please don't reply back to the list about this - just stop it now. Anyway, I'm listening to the fabulous European Song Contest so I'm a happy wee soul.
