Sinister: Black Ken White Chunite

[Kenneth P Y Chu]

I liked how the lovely Laura Llew commented on inside jokes, then promptly 
name-dropped 5 (plus a few more I'd no doubt missed) sinisters during her 
post.  I've never been one to get inside jokes, the getting inside part is 
hard enough before even the joke bit.

Then the ever marvellous Marisa Privitera said:

>>Ken, I just don't get it.<<

Making me sound like Fermat's Last Theorem, or the mystery of the Bermuda 
Triangle.

And then I've been asked to "explain myself" by the adorable Ann Salako.

Which got me all wondering "shit, what have I done?"  The last time I'd been 
asked to explain myself was when I did something very, very bad, and my 
friend had to asked me to explain why I chose Chicken Pasta rather than 
Steak in a restaurant.

I don't really know why people like to mention me a lot, it's probably 
because I have a stupid name that people like to make fun of.  Then some 
people described this fact that I have a funny(?) name as a "cult".

It's a bit of a crap cult isn't it?  Aren't leaders of a cult meant to get 
like, riches, and promiscious sex with cult follower girls*?  Yet I still 
have to beg to get a bloody crush vote, which they then take back to give to 
tall boys with indie glasses and musical knowledge, who can tell great 
inside jokes, or just jokes.

Not that I mind.  If I get pissed off by people saying nice things with my 
name in it in their e-mails, or if I get enraged by girls writing lovely 
parodies of songs about me, I would have left the list by now, and probably 
would have written a grate big letter saying how the list isn't as good as 
it was, or how I'd grown out of this.  And then I'd join some mailing forum 
for old people.

ANYWAY, back to the main points of this e-mail:

Astrid was "hinting" about not yet getting her outstanding x-mas exchange 
present, which made me feel guilty because there's still one of the presents 
for this year that I have yet to send and (oh dear!) two of the presents for 
er..last year's!  That's a year and 4 months late, oh 
I'mbadI'mbadI'mbadI'mbad but I will send them soon I promise.

But Astrid, sorry I'm not your exchange partner, so there must still be 
another naughty christmas exchanger out there somewhere!!

Woo this e-mail almost sounded as if I was ranting, next I'll start using 
words like "Fuck".

P.S.: Now that ALL of the B&S Treasure Hunt trophies have been found, I 
wonder if the answers to the Treasure Hunt clues will be revealed any time 
soon.

footnote:
* It's not too late to start
