Interesting article last in last Sunday's womens' section.

[NYC_SKP]

Actually it was today.

I don't what day of the week it is...

Sick.

Tired.

Of this shit.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

1. thank you NYC Skp. I saw it scrolling in Latest. I guess I should trash that group altogether...

but, I hate to diss my fan club like that

but, yeah already posted in Matt's thread. Giving him props.

If I wasn't already banned over there I would be like you, giving 'em hell and risking a hide or a bann.

[NYC_SKP]

2. I'm about done. I'm calling dick.

When I see a dick, I'm gonna call them on it.

Jackass, dick, it's not directed toward men except that it seems to be men doing the dickish, jackassy things these past couple of weeks.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

4. ... lol ...

The Boys Club where some girls are allowed to play, too.

Being a woman fully grown I tend to hang where the Real Men are.

I like Men. I like Intelligent Men. I like you, NYC_SKP.

You are alright; I don't care what they say.

[BainsBane]

3. Some have more to apologize for than others

Only they are the last to do so.

That passes as high intellectual conversation in some circles.

[BainsBane]

5. I prefer the music section myself

[ismnotwasm]

6. Pffft

Here NIN usually has an appropriate song

Head like a hole.....

Or Blood pigs by OTEP

[NYC_SKP]

12. I enjoyed "Head Like a Hole".

It actually calmed me down!

But then Blood Pigs kind of riled me up.

Back to NIN!

[BainsBane]

13. Interesting lyric

Fed from the wound from
Which we were bled

Vomiting filth in
Our soft cave heads

Chewing on tissue,
Tendon and fat

Destroying the things
They do not understand!

I haven't heard that song before.

17. Try this one

The Lord Is my Weapon
(actually God is a Gun)

[BainsBane]

21. I'm guess I'm just old fashioned.

I still love Patti Smith

[ismnotwasm]

23. Raise you one

Love is just a four letter word-- (although I like "Joy of Cooking" version better)

Love Patti Smith

[ismnotwasm]

24. Hell I have to add a little Etta

[ismnotwasm]

25. And The incomparable Billie Holliday

Strange Fruit is just about perfect for the last couple of days

[ismnotwasm]

26. And Sarah Vaughan

Shit they I go, getting started--better go to bed

[BainsBane]

27. I like Etta James better

and of course Billie Holiday. I liked singing folk songs at summer camp but I never much got into 60s folk in terms of listening.

[seabeyond]

7. i am GLAD he apologized to his daughter for the cold tush in the middle of the night.

the cookie? not so much. first come, first serve in our house. lol. and chocolate? hands off.

night to you all.

[BainsBane]

9. You know I suffer from chronic insomnia

But now when I manage to fall asleep tonight, I'll have nightmares.

[seabeyond]

10. Oh do you? That would be horrible though I don't do sleep well either

I have to tell myself... Self, sleep is my friend. I need sleep. Sleep is good.,

Maybe you need to tell your self.... Grinnin'

Good thing I didn't put up the picture of nightmare before Christmas, that I considered. Just make sure the seat is down before you go to bed. It will be fine.

[BainsBane]

11. It wasn't the picture that did it.

Sometimes one simply prefers not to know certain things.

[NYC_SKP]

14. Have you tried soundtracks?

I'm a bit like you, maybe. Up too late, thinking, restless...

Two years ago I stayed at a beachside cheap place on Maui but close to ocean, set my phone on the window sill.

OMG great sounds to sleep by!

Since then I've found great tracks on youtube.

Just search for "8 hours" and "surf" or "rain" or "lightning"...

[BainsBane]

15. Well, I sometimes fall asleep to Pink Floyd's Wish you were here albumn

Dark Side of the Moon doesn't work.

[NYC_SKP]

18. I had a great bootleg cassette of the tour, left it in a car. Can't find it on the net.

Great stuff but you're right, the DSOTM isn't as cerebral...

Also good, Peter Gabriel back in the day, the Lamb Lies Down on Broadway.

[NYC_SKP]

19. PS: The lamb concert is over two hours. no Phil Collins (eww)

[BainsBane]

16. Actually someone gave me a stuffed lamb that plays stuff like that

when I moved to where I live now, which is near a busy street and much noisier than my old neighborhood. I can deal with the rain, not the rest.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

20. what about "white noise" like a fan whirring.

I work crazy hours so I sleep crazy hours. I am good to go with 4-6 hours sleep. If I get 8 - I am great!

[BainsBane]

22. Yeah, I do that in the summer

Though I've lived here long enough now that I tune it out--except for the gun shots.

[Squinch]

28. I think the spelling is pretty funny. Also the fact that he had to bring his size into it.

[BainsBane]

29. It's probuably a bad idea to apoligise

Literacy is so 20th century.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

31. lol

that made me chuckle.

[BainsBane]

30. Pity party on isle one

[redqueen]

32. "I will also add that my preference is not to see this group dissolve into a shit throwing contest,"

It's a good thing someone deleted their dozens of copycat shit-throwing threads, then!

[ismnotwasm]

33. *snort*

I'm still keeping it in the trash.

Apparently it has the occasional amusement factor-- but not worth it.


?slash?

[BainsBane]

34. Two years too late for that

[redqueen]

35. Yep.

It's a freaking tradition now. It'll take more than one email chastising people there for copycatting this group to break that habit.
