By droopy on Thursday, July 20, 2000 - 11:41 pm:

    I had gotten on another thread and written a long, sordid post that spanned 30 years of abuse, infidelity, and other human weaknesses, and then my computer crashed and erased it all.

    so here's the practical upshot:

    if you live in seattle, or happen to be there one day, and you meet a couple by the name of Richard and Leah Wolfe -

    i want you to bitch slap them. or some similar action.

    that's all i want.

    A continous 7 day long orgasm


By Fetidbeaver on Friday, July 21, 2000 - 11:18 am:

    My brother alive again.

    OK I'll stop now.

    a huge rabid collection of calypso music

    endless art supplies and a clock to tell me to never stop making art.

    someone to take care of my bottomless pit libido at the end of the day...and the beginning of the day for that matter.

    someone to kiss me! dammit! someone to woo me with awesome cookware and a keen sense of the absurd.

    free 120 film plus developing plus contact sheets

    more jelly bracelets


    true love


    and i especially wish that i didn't hear people being shitty to their kids everytime i left my house. it makes me cry. it makes me lose hope.


By J on Friday, July 21, 2000 - 12:26 pm:

    Jay, no I am an alcoholic,but I know about that program and the 12 steps.


By aChing on Friday, July 21, 2000 - 01:09 pm:

    My wish...
    to want what I have.

    Sincerely,
    aChing

    relative of chaChing, distant cousin of sirChing


By Kalliope on Friday, July 21, 2000 - 05:01 pm:

    a 7 day long orgasm would hurt. im nearly positive of this.

    maybe 7 hours would be bearable. k. thats what i want. 7 hours of just me groaning.

    a new pair of shoes to go with my new dress

    this dude to take pictures of me and pay me godammit

    my brother to get his ass here now instead of next week. i miss him.

    patrick to write me a goddamn email and tell me why the fuck he hasnt recently.

    this puppy im housing for some woman who doesn't deserve to adopt him. i wanna keep him.

    for the lead singer of submerge to kiss me. just once. thats all.

    not to get crushes so easily.

    someone who will wash my dishes. i dont wanna.


By Willy Nilly on Friday, July 21, 2000 - 05:10 pm:

    I want a reason for doing all the things I do...

    ~A reason for putting on my helmet when I ride my bike

    ~A reason for eating well and trying to keep myself healthy

    ~A reason for trying to maintain good credit

    ~A reason for getting out of bed in the morning

    I do all these things already, but only because I don't stop to think about them. If I did, I probably wouldn't bother.


By Bell_jar on Friday, July 21, 2000 - 05:13 pm:

    for this guy to be home, so i can go see x-men tonight.

    for my mother to live at least until after i graduate.

    for me to make the right decision about my sisters.

    and to be kissed by someone who makes me laugh.


By TBone on Friday, July 21, 2000 - 05:18 pm:

    good email for once. Just once.

    conversation

    courage/self confidence

    friends who get along with each other.

    Friends like I used to have a long time ago... strange that they were all female back then. Most of the ones I REALLY connected with were. hm

    enough money to save a little.

    toys

    The ability to remember


By semillama on Friday, July 21, 2000 - 05:43 pm:

    a computer that isn't possessed by demons

    a killer band in the next place I live

    the next place I live to be with Mavis and her peeping kitties

    and let's not neglect the greed:

    a top of the line Paul Reed Smith guitar
    free lessons in how to mix and engineer records
    An electric car

    and other non-tangible things

    the ability to take delight in cooking
    the ability to play piano (why did I stop taking lessons??)
    the ability to play drums
    to finally know what it feels like when someone is in love with you


    and the utterly unrealistic

    to fly like Keanu in the Matrix, dude
    immortality
    built in ground penetrating radar and GPS abilities


By Jay on Saturday, July 22, 2000 - 08:05 pm:

    to be there


By Cat on Saturday, July 22, 2000 - 08:24 pm:

    Someone I can talk to forever

    A huge library with books so high, I have to use a ladder to get them down.

    Patience

    For everyone I love to live forever

    Unending affection

    The smell of my Grandmother's kitchen

    My own rainforest with a clearing for midnight picnics

    A big really old wooden piano

    An antique lace shawl to wrap myself in when I sit on my verandah

    To see the Kremlin

    A big bed, complete with the "someone I can talk to forever and our snuggling children and cat.

    Oh....and Audrey Hepburn's shoe collection.


By Nelly on Saturday, July 22, 2000 - 09:49 pm:

    To really, really wake up and stay woke up.


By Daniel ssss on Sunday, July 23, 2000 - 12:53 pm:

    I WANTED WHAT I HAD.

    That's why everything on a wish list IS a wish. That's why one turns things down, one says "no thank you," one keeps on moving back to What I Had.

    UNTIL.

    What I Had didn't want me.

    My grandfather used to say "you can wish in one hand and shit in the other." The point is, the mess is, that I avoided just about everything that came my way, messages from Sarah's god and Sem's devil, if they exist, and they were unbelieveably welcoming opportunities...avoided in favor of What I Had.

    But What I Had didn't want me in the same way, and now What I Had is gone, too.

    THAT'S the mess.

    Do we really ever know what we want? Really now.


By droopy on Sunday, July 23, 2000 - 05:59 pm:

    well, i REALLY wanted to make deer chili today. last night i put a package of what was clearly marked "chili meat" in my fridge to thaw. i gathered up all the fixin's fer chili. when i opened up the package not 45 minutes, i found steaks - the flesh of a deer cut into steaks.

    for lack of a better idea, i decided to cut up these several pounds worth of steaks into cubes for a chil stew. i went at the tough meat with my blunt kitchen knife and got the all cubed and now i've got them marinating in the fridge in fresh garlic, cayenne, chili, cumin, and black pepper. my left hand aches.

    but it seemed to me everything worked out for the best.

    another tragedy averted.


By Jay on Sunday, July 23, 2000 - 08:58 pm:

    i ate deer once with this buddy of mine who recently killed himself. he called it "spirit of the forest" . i really dig shit like that. like you eat the deer and take some of his spirit into yourself. not that i'm into those feathered dream catchers and wolf prints or anything but think about it next time you eat some pork or cow or chicken.
    spirit of the motherfucking pig pen.

    I want: An experienced field crew who have done historical archaeology before, and a consort of artifact scrubbers and catalogers.

    I broke yet another volunteer last night. I should be filming all this, I could market it as the next "Survivor".

By Jay on Thursday, August 3, 2000 - 08:57 am:

    Mavis I'll gladly take you out for some Chai Tea. My ex-girlfriend had some pink converse that she about creamed herself over when she got them.

    I can get you cowboys. what's your preference? we currently have in stock: shitkickin', goat-ropin', or ass-whoopin' models.


By Cat on Sunday, August 6, 2000 - 02:27 am:

    No hog-tyin varieties? No croc-wrasslin as an added extra?

    I bet you don't even provide gift wrapping. Service just ain't what it used to be.


By droop on Sunday, August 6, 2000 - 02:59 am:

    Mattress. That's a good one.
    I'd like to not be in pain. That would be nice. But I think that's about it. A new lamp would be good, actually, as would some money, but who can be choosy.


By moonit on Sunday, August 6, 2000 - 06:14 pm:

    Thanks Bell_Jar. It was on Friday.


By Antithesis on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 03:07 pm:

    Amending my list; I'd like a constant aura of warmth and a good job in Vermont. *fears coldness*


By Zephyr on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 03:46 pm:

    I want access to sorabji when I want it, not just at work!

    I bought a vanilla cake today....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...

    Lets just say that I am going to be VERY happy while that thing lasts...


By TBone on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 04:09 pm:

    I wish I had something that set me off in a good way like that. The only thing I've got is velvet, but that's the bad kind of freak-out. My palms sweat just thinking about that texture. Bleh! <shudder>


By Trace on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 04:20 pm:

    I am getting very worried


By Mavis on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 05:33 pm:

    i still want pink shoes. i can't seem to find the right ones.

    i also want miso soup, jelly bracelets,
    and a bottomless pile of books to read.


By Zephyr on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 06:13 pm:

    I just read "Revolt in 2100" yesterday. I really liked it.

    I love reading like that. Just sitting in my room listening to music and reading through good books. Just plowing through them. I used to do that all the time.


By Trace on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 06:15 pm:

    I did when I was younger, now I can't seem to concentrate


By Zephyr on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 06:21 pm:

    Oh. I forgot to say that the book was by Robert A. Heinlein.


By Trace on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 06:23 pm:

    OOO, Heinlein is one of the greats


By Mavis on Monday, August 7, 2000 - 07:42 pm:

    last night i finished "it's not about the bike" by lance armstrong who fought cancer and ended up winning the 1999 tour de france while his cancer was in remission. he's one hardcore guy. it was a very uplifting book.
    now i am reading a supposedly fun thing i'll never do agin by david foster wallace
    and re-reading temper temper by sonja ahlers because i met her on saturday and now i want to read it again.

    i was just thining that a downfall to riding my bike instead of bussing is losing about 2.5 hours of reading time a day.



By Gee on Tuesday, August 8, 2000 - 11:59 pm:

    I would like a truck load of strength for august 17th.


By semillama on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 12:49 pm:

    Mavis, you spend 2.5 hours a (work)day on your bike? That's great!


    Gee, what's happening the 17th?


By Mavis on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 01:06 pm:

    sem
    yes
    i spend 2.5 hours a day on my bike, and usually 4 on weekend days.

    i want my ass to look amazing!


By TBone on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 01:12 pm:

    I promised myself that i'd bike to work all through this summer...

    sigh. It would be great for me. I did great for a week or two, then I got a bad cold, and haven't ridden since then.

    Tomorrow! Yes! Unless the smoke is bad again.

By Mavis on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 01:43 pm:

    t bone- the worst thing you can do re: riding your bike to work is to pressure or guilt yourself into it....i did that and my roommate wendy does that and it is paralyzing....

    think of how much fun it is to ride a bike!!!!


By Zephyr on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 03:44 pm:

    I love my bike! I wish I could ride it more (I think I top out with like 5 hours a week...ick! And I have to be in shape for xcountry too!)


By semillama on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 06:25 pm:

    Isuppose I could ride my bike to work....if there were no cars and no Wisconsin drivers. Too bloody scared to do it as it is.


    Besides that motherfucker of a hill.


    and how damn tired I get from excavating.

    plus how much earlier I'd have to get up.


    Oh well...


By Mavis on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 06:29 pm:

    i am actually beginning to love hills.
    it's a good way to burn off agression.....and cake!


By semillama on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 07:39 pm:

    i want to ride my bike in the UP, that's waht it's for.

    I'd also like to spend a full two weeks in Late September there. Especialy now that my friend Kiko is buying a house there.


By Mavis on Wednesday, August 9, 2000 - 07:44 pm:

    what what is for ? the bike or the up?


By Gee on Monday, August 14, 2000 - 11:57 am:

    on the 17th I'm going to tell Ishmael that I've liked him for half a year. I have no expectation, I just hope I can get it all out before I start crying or giggling hysterically.


By Mavis on Monday, August 14, 2000 - 12:32 pm:

    oh my god, that's thrilling!!!
    good luck!!


By Wavy on Monday, August 14, 2000 - 07:00 pm:

    I ride my bike to work about 3 days a week. I really should do it every day during the summer because my house is soooo close to my job - about a mile or less. The only way I justify driving is when I'm going to Great Harvest to get a scone and some coffee - or to drive by the coffee hut and get my fix from the friendly chicas in there.

    When it comes down to it, even Great Harvest is a lame excuse because it's less than a half-mile more - it just means negotiating some tricky curbs while trying not to splash coffee on my pants.

    I drove to work today, but I rode my bike to the river and back this morning, so I'm kinda justified.

    Re: What do I want?
    I want to be out of debt. I can handle the school loan payments, I just want the devil monkey called Providian Visa off my back.

    Credit cards are pure, unfettered evil to those of us who don't have any fiscal responsibility.


By moonit on Monday, August 14, 2000 - 11:59 pm:

    Good luck Gee!

    I want my framing thing to work out.


By Zephyr on Thursday, August 17, 2000 - 06:10 pm:

    I want a good job...I think I might be working at an ice cream place, and I'm going to bike there...


By Gee on Friday, August 18, 2000 - 11:28 am:

    it all went as planned. Except for the part where I spoke. I had intended to be much more smooth than I actually was, but I managed to squeek it all out.

    I already knew he wasn't interested in me that way, so I wasn't dissapointed or anything. He said nice things to me, though, and I just kind of ignored it so now I feel bad. I wonder if I've made him feel bad by not not reacting to what he said to me. I went back to him a couple of hours later and told him that I thought what he'd said was really nice. I hope he belived me.

    He said he thinks of me as a sister, which is not the kind of thing he just lightly throws around. it's a really nice thing for him to say. and, objectivly, better than if he'd admitted that he wants to jump me.

    I may or may not ever see him again. Yesterday was our last work day before I go on vacation, and I don't know if he's going to be here when I come back. but he's such a nice boy. if he's not here, I'll go find him.


By patrick on Friday, August 18, 2000 - 11:58 am:

    "........i want a job i want a job a REAL job , i want a job i want job i want job a GOOD job i want a jobbbbbbbbb that SATISFIESSSSSS.....my artistic needs...i want a job a real job i want a job i want a job........."



By Pez on Friday, August 18, 2000 - 12:06 pm:

    most guys that i have crushes on i'd rather have as friends than boyfriends. what happens if you break up? after i broke up with my last boyfriend my best friend stopped talking to me. well, she did have more in common with my ex than me...she was the one that knew all about computers, and she was the one that he taought how to play magic, and she was the one that was dating his best friend.

    do i sound bitter?

    we broke up last december. we went to a formal dance at my school and he reused. to dance, i mean.

    at that point, i had stayed with him for two months after i decided i had no interest in him anymore. i figured that if i stayed with him long enough to go to this dance, everything would be alright.

    wrong.

    i'm glad he lives in another state. i'm glad i'll never have to see him again.


By J on Friday, August 18, 2000 - 12:08 pm:

    Patrick,sounds like you are working at Frustration Inc.Gee,where are you going for vacation?I'm hoping to go to San Diego in Sept.Ishmael must be crazy:)


By patrick on Friday, August 18, 2000 - 12:45 pm:

    no im singing some stupid song that malcolm sang to sid and johnny on the US tour bus in sid and nancy...


By Gee on Saturday, August 19, 2000 - 01:11 am:

    I'm going to the couch and planting my butt. teletoon is showing old episodes of the Tick and X-Men. the family channel is showing Alf. I'm excited.

By Daniel ssss on Sunday, August 20, 2000 - 01:34 am:

    Have Car, Used Cabriolet, 1988, completely rebuilt with new top, runs great, newer rebuilt engine, needs paint and a good cleaning inside -- one ac vent too. Not driven much in last three years, Sunday drives and a couple of teenage weekend things...floats well, but not sure about salt water floating.

    Reasonable. Serious inquiries only.


By cyst on Sunday, August 20, 2000 - 07:39 pm:

    I want what nelly said she wants. to wake up. then to keep feeling awake. I am so tired.

    last night I saw "king of marvin gardens" at the little theater and tonight I am going to see my favorite movie, "five easy pieces," at the grand illusion.

    tell me about these wolfe people, droopy.


By Zephyr on Sunday, August 20, 2000 - 09:02 pm:

    What's Marvin Garden?
    The name rings a bell. A loud one. But I don't know where it's from.


By Zephyr on Sunday, August 20, 2000 - 09:03 pm:

    I want a way into the really big barn on the old AT&T Tract.


By droopy on Sunday, August 20, 2000 - 11:02 pm:

    you probably know marvin gardens from monopoly, zephyr.

    the wolfe people are my cousin richard and his wife, miss cyst. richard works at the amazon.com head office (or whatever it is) up in seattle now. let's just say that i've been displeased with his conduct lately. he'd left texas without leaving a forwarding address, but his little brother found out from a friend where he'd gone. it's old news now, and i'm not getting into any details. if you happen to hear about him up there, let me know.


By dbone on Sunday, August 20, 2000 - 11:15 pm:

    anybody here know who agnes brown is?


By cyst on Tuesday, August 22, 2000 - 02:36 pm:

    droopy, what's your e-mail address? you need to see "five easy pieces," if you haven't already. it takes place in texas and washington, just like you and me, pal.


By cyst on Tuesday, August 22, 2000 - 02:37 pm:

    oh yeah. mine is ^


By Pez on Tuesday, August 22, 2000 - 06:53 pm:

    i want softer feet and smaller bones.

    i went through highschool thinking i'm fat.

    my bones are right underneath the surface of my skin. i'll never be able to fit in jeans smaller than a size ten because of my hips.

    maybe i drank too much milk.


By cyst on Tuesday, August 22, 2000 - 07:38 pm:

    god, that sucks, pez. you know that guys don't date girls over size 8, right? I've heard lesbianism and celibacy aren't all that bad, though. I mean, there's always tv.


By Pez the hunter on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 12:30 am:

    maybe violence is the answer. i'd love to get in a good fight. with the right person, of course.


By Cat on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 03:32 am:

    Well bring it on kiddo! Pez, I'm going to have to smack you if you don't stop this moaning about your appearance and how it's preventing you from getting a bloke.

    You're sweet, obviously intelligent, funny...

    (shit, I'm starting to sound like a bloody teen magazine here).

    My point is...you're at severe risk of becoming a shallow excuse for a person. Stop worrying about your appearance, worry about world poverty, worry about whether little green men are going to invade Earth, whatever...

    You're around 6ft and you wear size 10? Sounds pretty good to me. Stop caring about what men want...who gives a shit? Start caring about what you want.

    The real reason you don't have a man is probably because they can smell the desperation on you. In my limited experience, blokes start hopping across the paddock at the first whiff of a predatory female.

    So, one more post from you on appearance and you get a whippin'...it's for your own good.

    (There, I feel better now)


By Zephyr on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 10:08 am:

    Umm...what's that about the size 8 comment? Right....

    Pez, you're 6'! oh god!

    ::swoon::


    I hate monopoly.

    And who cares what the average guy wants? You don't want an average person, so it's better if you're different!


By patrick on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 12:12 pm:

    confidence and hips are damn sexy............ive repeated this all over the damn place.

    its funny, people always consider LA as the bastion of appearance and shallowness, yet it sounds like cyst, you've had some experiences in the portland, seattle area to make you a little jaded.........

    pez, confidence and hips.....confidence and hips.......yummy


By Mavis on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 12:55 pm:

    true enough.
    hips are mesmerizing.....lucky for me.


By Pez. plain and simple. on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 01:13 pm:

    sorry. i'll stop whining.

    my little sister told me yesterday that she liked it that i wasn't shutting her out anymore, but she thinks i'm getting a little shallow.

    thank you for threatening to beat me. i 'spose that i was getting a little annoying there.

    maybe i'll just do my job and have some fun doing it.

    on the shallow end of the pool, i got a new lipgloss yesterday. it's sparkly and smells like peaches.

    and then i drove my grandparents to dinner because my grandpa isn't a very good driver anymore. and he likes his drink.


By Zephyr on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 02:39 pm:

    I'm not sure if I like hips...I don't really look at them. I'm much more a face/hair person, I guess.


By cyst on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 02:45 pm:

    christ, patrick, I was kidding. I have huge hips, bulbous thighs, I'm over 6', and I'm at least a size 10 in most clothes, yet I have no trouble scaring up male interest.

    I think I sort of have a boyfriend now. I mean, he's married to someone else, but that's just a technicality. it's weird -- I see cute guys now, and I look away. I don't want to be bad.


By patrick on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 02:59 pm:

    oh, you sounded like a cynic. i don't know much about your size or your hips. I recall they were pretty cool.

    i've noticed people have been saying my name and christ in the same sentence lately. not necessarily here, but in general.

    its usually not good. maybe i should crawl in my hole for a while......... only after i go make fun of my dope of a boss.


By semillama on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 03:03 pm:

    Hips are my favorite, especially the part right where they meet the waist...


By Trace on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 03:10 pm:

    Hips hold the treasure chest.....


By Cat on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 05:51 pm:

    No, no, no, Pez it's not that it was getting annoying or whiney. I just find it very mad-making hearing an 18 year old girl obessessing about her size.

    You're going to be a long time in that body and you gotta learn to love it before you can expect anybody else to love it.

    And do you really want a bloke who only wants you because you're an ornament of a size and shape society considers to be attractive at this particular moment in our lamentable history?

    Repeat after me..."fuck no"


By Mavis on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 05:55 pm:

    FUCK NO!!!!


By Trace on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 05:55 pm:

    Although It shocks me to do so, I have to say that Cat is right. Who gives a rats ass what you look like on the outside. Why obsess? The only time to worry about your size is when it is affecting your health.
    There was a time when larger women were considered wealthy looking, and therefor attractive.
    I for one can't stand the "kate moss" look. I want meat, not bones


By Mavis on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 06:01 pm:

    cat
    i lost yr email address.....


By Cat on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 06:26 pm:

    I've lost yours too matey!


By Mavis on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 06:32 pm:


By patrick on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 06:58 pm:

    FUCK NO!

    *looking around*

    oh wait the meeting is over?


By Antithesis on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 07:24 pm:

    FUCK NO!

    heh. hips. yum. rosehips, mother hips. fish andc hips?


By Isolde on Wednesday, August 23, 2000 - 08:39 pm:

    FUCK NO!

    Pez, plain and tall. I love tall women. I love tall people in general, as anti can prove. I'm hanging out down here at about five feet, and everyone else is a giant. *sigh* anyway. Tall is good. Hips...yum.


By Pez on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 03:17 am:

    being tall has its advantages in the shoe department. so does being skinny.

    i'm the only one that can squeeze between all the racks. i've got thighs that are a bit chunky, but otherwise i'm all bone and muscle.

    maybe i obsess about how i look because i have trouble getting (or keeping) a boyfriend. perhaps my recent shallowness has helped of late.

    i do like to look good. i used to have chronic depression and it was often triggered by bad hair or funky smelling hands. i used to smell my hands all the time to make sure they didn't smell like meat.

    FUCK NO!!! I DON'T NEED TO BE BARBIE!!!


By Zephyr on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 11:32 am:

    Rock on!

    FUCK NO!

    Barbie's ugly.


By J on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 11:36 am:

    I collect Barbies,or I did before I realized I could never have them all,but I have hundreds of them.I'm surprised Czarina didn't ask me why my bed was so high,my s/o had a carpenter build a big storage platform to keep some of them in,my box springs and mattress are on top of it,my window seat and closet are full of them.I want the Barbie and Frank Sinatra set really bad.I'm a real hit with all the under 11 year old girls on the block.I also collect easter tea sets.


By Pez on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 12:54 pm:

    i still like to make barbie clothes and to do their hair. i remember i once made a chinese style princess dress completly out of paper (and a little tape...).

    i miss my my little ponies. i had majesty. they were cool ponies. not like what they have now. "grand champions" hmph!


By semillama on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 03:56 pm:

    I miss my Transformers.

    to quote Leslie Rankin: Hips! Tits! Lips! Power!


By Zephyr on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 04:13 pm:

    My mom never let me have action figures when I was a wee laddie.


By patrick on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 05:02 pm:

    GoBots were better


By Trace on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 05:10 pm:

    Hot Wheels rule! I still collect them


By semillama on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 05:34 pm:

    I wish I was with my best friend...that's all I really want.

    although the Transformers would be an added bonus...


By Cat on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 05:35 pm:

    I want them to let me play with fire!

    A while ago, when I moved to the edges of civilisation, I joined the Bush Fire Brigade. Since I love to cook, I started a canteen kind of thing.

    Anyway, I just got a call cause there's some small fires around. And the Commander said they were short-handed, so I said - "Great, that means I can get out of the frying pan and into the fire". But he said that he didn't think I was physically strong enough (and gave me blah blah about how much they appreciated my food etc etc)

    Now I'm mad. Sure I'm not exactly huge...but I'm really fit from hiking every second weekend for hours and hours. I can jump off cliffs and climb stuff and run pretty fast. I'm a regular freaking action Barbie.

    Anyway, looks like I better go pack my apron. Bugger bum poos.


By patrick on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 06:17 pm:

    i wish they had the volunteer firefighter system around here, as I would join....everyone loves fireman, especially girls.


By Cat on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 06:46 pm:

    Firemen suck big hoses (I'm still being a selfish bitch and pouting)


By Antithesis on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 06:49 pm:

    I couldn't deal with being a fire fighter; especially not in So. Cal. I thought about it for a while, but... nah. I've often been told that I'm two skinny to do two things: play football and fight fires.

    I'd be like, hey, baby, I'm a firefighter: come home with me? And she'd be like "sure thing, big boy" and I'd be like "rock out. yes." and we'd get back home, and she'd be taking off my fire-fightin' uniform, and she'd be like, "Dude, are you sure you're in here somewhere? or is this just a big pile of flame retardant clothing with a talking head on top?"

    and y'know? I hate it when that happens.

    Oh. and cast my vote for transformers over go-bots. More than meets the eye, my friends. for the longest time as a kid, I thought that power transformers, like on telephone poles, were really Transformers, and at night they'd be all charged up from sitting with the power lines, and they'd unfold and go do Transformer-things and get into fights with each other.


By patrick on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 07:16 pm:

    where did you find this cat isolde, i like him and their ain't no s/o weirdness like there has been in the past with others..

    i too would probably be too skinny and wimpy to be a firefighter, but im used to holding big hoses.......










    ok ok ok i know i know i couldnt resist


By Isolde on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 07:58 pm:

    Wel, one day I was pretty drunk. And, stepping out the door of my favorite bar after closing time, I saw this really drunk guy with no shoes wearing a UPS uniform in the alley. Now, I'm a sucker for a guy in uniform, and this was too tempting. I slung him up on my back (his hands were bandaged for weeks from bumping along the sidewalk), and threw him in the back of my pickup.His head bounced off the gunrack on the way in. I put him on my couch, wiped the vomit off his chin, and the rest is history.


By patrick on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 08:04 pm:

    right on. I bet he knows how to "deliver" huh?

    i hate you kids didnt give a ring when you came down.


By Antithesis on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 08:30 pm:

    Pat, baby, I was afraid I wouldn't be able to hold myself back. I'm an anarchist, after all. I might have been forced to break something in a fit of violent outrage at your complacent, bourgousieiaiaod (I hate spelling that word. why did marx like vowels so much?) existence. And I'm just kiddin'.

    I remember the day that we parted,
    The day and the way that we met
    You hoped we were both broken-hearted
    and knew we should both forget.
    --Algernon Charles Swinburne

    Yeah. Like she's been to a bar in her life.

    'Sides. I wouldn't be caught dead in a UPS uniform. I still don't understand why you find those things so intriguing.

    Oh, hell. you just ruined the "is Anti male or female" bit, didn't you?


By Isolde on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 08:33 pm:

    So do we. We were going to. I don't know what the hell happened. I think we got et. The roomate he wrote about was with us, along with another friend, the media whore, and a high schooler who just sort of attached himself to our group, and another girl, who we left in downtown LA and found again just before we left. It's wierd. I hang out with all these 18-21 year olds. Funky. Anyway. Yeah. I would have liked to meet you and Niko in person. Don't hate us. We will be back. Or at least I will, since I never stay away from the city of ass for very long.


By patrick on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 08:49 pm:

    i think perhaps if you would have torched a news van or cop car i may not have objected.........in fact i may have even been slightly turned on..


By Isolde on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 08:57 pm:

    Whew. I've been waiting to confess that. It's not true. My favorite bar closed before you moved here. I used to sit at the end and drink shirley temples. Yum.


By Antithesis on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 09:04 pm:

    NOW he tells me. isn't that just like a man?


By Pez. on Thursday, August 24, 2000 - 11:29 pm:

    hmmmm... entertaining.

    continues to watch bickering with a smile on her face...

    this reminds me of the time my aunt convinced my dad's friend that they're a quarter japanese. mwahahahaha!!!


By JusMiceElf on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 01:00 am:

    Ahhh....to hell with Transformers *and* Gobots. Micronauts were where it was at. I loved those things. I had a whole bunch of them, that ended up getting mixed in with my Star Wars figures eventually. I loved that you could take pieces off of the big Micronauts ship and use them as toy guns.


By Antithesis on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 05:02 am:

    Micronauts? Are those the guys who drive Micro Machines?


By semillama on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 08:34 am:

    no, they were supposedly these beings from another dimension, and they were all smaller than humans (in fact, about the same scale as the toys, as I remember). That was my favorite comic book as a kid.


By TBone on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 12:15 pm:

    I was thinking about volounteering to help fight fires here, but I think they'd laugh at me.

    I dunno, maybe. The firefighter chicks scare me though.


By Mavis on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 12:18 pm:

    why do they scare you?


By J on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 01:05 pm:

    Stay away from that fire Tbone,every time I see Tbone,I think of that song New Age Girl,by Dead Eye Dick....she don't eat meat but she sure likes the bone!


By cyst on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 01:14 pm:

    I want droopy to come back.


By TBone on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 01:56 pm:

    Women in general intimidate me to no end.

    Women with axes, large hoses, covered in soot and biceps as big as my head scare me whole hell of a lot.

    Okay, so that's an exaggeration. But I'm just intimidated by most women.


By Mavis on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 01:58 pm:

    but you're so cute!
    what lady wouldn't want to be nice to you?


By droopy on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 02:18 pm:

    i'm here, cyst. lunchtime lurking. i've been dbone on these boards, lately.

    i emailed you like 3 days ago.

    what's on yer mind?

    any woman who has been trained to break through my window, sling me over her shoulder, and carry me off down a ladder (despite the fact that i live on the ground floor) is very sexy to me.

    and i'm cuter than ralph nader's left testicle.


By droopy on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 02:25 pm:

    oh yeah, email address.


By Zephyr on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 02:28 pm:

    "any woman who has been trained to break through my window, sling me over her shoulder, and carry me off down a ladder (despite the fact that i live on the ground floor) is very sexy to me. "

    Ditto.


By Zephyr on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 02:28 pm:

    I want my black knight to come rescue me already...


    Oh, and what really fucking sucks is that my rear tire on my bike has a hole in it. A big one.
    Fucker.


By Mavis on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 02:40 pm:

    I want a date.
    One that ends in friendship, or a sexy sticky pile.
    I don't care which.


By Cat on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 06:37 pm:

    They didn't let me play with fire...yet! But I will persist and my day will come.

    Tbone, don't be afraid, I'd be gentle if I was rescuing you. Sadly I don't think my biceps could support you, so I'd probably just have to hold your hand.


By cyst on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 06:38 pm:

    oh, you're dbone. goddamn. I've only been skimming lately. I'll check that e-mail account.


By Isolde on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 07:06 pm:

    I wanna be a firefighter chick!


By Antithesis on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 09:06 pm:

    I wanna be an airborne ranger... I wanna live a life of danger...


By Pez on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 09:12 pm:

    whatever happened to "you, me and a stick of butter" tbone?

    i'm going dancing tonight. i fully intend to light some fires.


By TBone on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 09:34 pm:

    As much as I'm ashamed to admit it, I've never actually used that line. It's not even my line. It's from userfriendly.org.

    It didn't work for him, but I bet if you used that line on some guy, Pez, you'd be slathered up in colesterol before you could say popcorn.


By Jay on Friday, August 25, 2000 - 09:50 pm:

    a gallon of milk, four q-tips and a vinyl copy of "Straight outta Compton".


By Pez on Saturday, August 26, 2000 - 12:54 am:

    actually, i do have a book of pick-up lines.

    which i've never used.

    but i'm going bowling tonight. on what is technically a triple date. harm's boyfriend brian is trying to fix me up with his friend jenner. who is sort of cute. in a scruffy sort of way.

    nobody's tried to fix me up with anyone before. it's comforting that someone watches out for me.

    oh gawd. i haven't been bowling in years.


By Antithesis bowler on Saturday, August 26, 2000 - 07:38 am:

    BOWLING GOOD!

    I once dated a girl who had a dream about bowling shoes.

    take the skinheads bowling, take them bowling!

    Let's go bowling.

    Bowling: America's national non-sport.

    Fuck golf: You can FEEL my balls.


By Zephyr on Monday, August 28, 2000 - 02:55 pm:

    I want myself back.


By J on Monday, August 28, 2000 - 03:06 pm:

    Good God,I love bowling,I even have bowling garb.I bowled a 193 last week,the best I have done in awhile.What happened to your life Zephyr?


By Antithesis on Tuesday, August 29, 2000 - 01:46 am:

    damn. me average like 150. AND I CAN'T FORM COMPLETE SENTENCES!! EXcept for that one right there. and this one. fuck. there.


By Isolde on Tuesday, August 29, 2000 - 01:50 am:

    Is drunk.
    Looks like a complete sentance to me.


By Isolde on Tuesday, August 29, 2000 - 01:53 am:

    Damnit. I never could spell sentence. My teachers used to mock me. Me and this one other guy in the school. We were both writer-types, and neither of us could spell sentence. Everyone thought that was very funny.


By Z on Tuesday, August 29, 2000 - 01:15 pm:

    J, go look at the "I'm thinking of ending my life thread". Golliters. I feel so not good today.


By J on Tuesday, August 29, 2000 - 02:01 pm:

    Sending you hugs,I went there,what is your e-mail address?


By Zephyr on Tuesday, August 29, 2000 - 03:52 pm:

    here


By Pez on Thursday, August 31, 2000 - 04:17 am:

    i feel sparkly. i've been iced. and massauged. and kissed.

    and i grabbed a butt.


By Zephyr on Thursday, August 31, 2000 - 11:30 am:

    Lucky kid. I want that.


By Mavis on Thursday, August 31, 2000 - 12:00 pm:

    i want prang brush markers. why they are so hard to find, i do not know.
    true love? nah....more art supplies.


By Zephyr on Friday, September 1, 2000 - 12:50 am:

    I want a fucking kiln.
    And lots of clay.
    And neat-o glazes.
    And time.
    Truckloads of it.

    I also want someone to be hopelessly in love with...it's such a great feeling.

    and of course, I want to just kiss someone. I really do. I wonder how someone would react to me just walking up to them and kissing them...fun?

    I think that if I see anyone that's a stranger...and I think that theyre pretty (male, or female, whichever) I will walk up to them, and tell them that they are.

    People need to be told that someone finds them beautiful.


By semillama on Friday, September 1, 2000 - 10:09 am:

    It's been such a long time since I've been hopelessly in love, I wonder if I am even still capable of it anymore.I have a hard time even imagining that I could feel like that.

    Ever feel like you missed your chances?


By J on Friday, September 1, 2000 - 10:24 am:

    You are too young to have missed your chance Sem,your just stuck out on that base too much.


By Isolde on Friday, September 1, 2000 - 11:58 am:

    It's true. People do need it. But, sadly, if someone were to walk up to a beautiful person and state the obvious, they would be dismissed as a street wierdo. It's a sad, sad world.


By patrick on Friday, September 1, 2000 - 12:27 pm:

    i want ass sex.





    i want my head to stop throbbing




    i want my cats to learn how to use the toilet






By Trace on Friday, September 1, 2000 - 12:51 pm:

    Patrick, we all want our cats to learn how to use the toilet, and not the pile of towls our kids insist on leaving on the floor, and only detectable when you are walking to the kitchen at night barefooted.................


By Jay on Friday, September 1, 2000 - 12:54 pm:

    I miss that hopelessly in love thing myself. I'd really like to fall head over fucking heels in love with a real woman. no psycho or emotional zero but a decent girl. I love her, she loves me. that would be cool. People always seem to think that the grass is greener on the other side and they're missing out on something. no ones ever satisfied it seems.
    ever see that seinfeld episode where they're discussing how ridiculous it is to say "God bless you " when somebody sneezes? they decide it would be much better to say "you are sooooooo good lookin'". I've always wanted to say that to someone other than friends who are in on the joke. a complete stranger in an elevator. could lead to insane love.


By Zephyr on Sunday, September 3, 2000 - 01:51 am:

    I want my 5th grade crush.

    i want ratings.pol to not be fucked up.

    i hope my dad doesn't notice that I accidentally screwed it up when trying to bypass the content advisor thing. god. he even had a screen saver pw up, this comp won't let you put on a bios pw. haha.
    oh well.

    wish me luck.

    or something.

    I want my goddamn bike tire to not have holes in it.

    I want to go for a walk on a starry night someplace wild...with someone.


By Hal on Sunday, September 3, 2000 - 08:12 pm:

    I want my girlfriend back in the same city as me...

    I want to be in the same city as my girlfriend...


    I think that about sums it up...


By Isolde on Sunday, September 3, 2000 - 09:32 pm:

    I want...the cute boy I saw at dinner to like me.
    I want to feel...not so lonely.
    I want..to smile at the person walking by the window.


By The Dinner Lady on Monday, September 4, 2000 - 02:47 am:

    An oven thermometer.

    New knobs for the stove.

    A better stud finder.

    Frozen food.

    Curtains for the dining room.

    Shower curtain rings that are not metal or 'button ups' in clear or sparkles.

    Something to do on Monday and someone fun to do it with.

    The cat to clean its own litter box for once.




By Gee on Monday, September 4, 2000 - 03:21 am:

    I'm having a moment of not wanting anything. It feels so good I wish I could be this way all the time.


    desire will resume early tomorow morning.


By Pez on Tuesday, September 5, 2000 - 03:14 am:

    i want my ideals to be preserved.
    i want to be the one that he calls and talks to for hours about nothing.
    i want my cat to return from wherever she went.
    i want to turn back time.
    i want better self esteem.
    i want to be able to say no anytime i want to.

    i want to beat jon drenner up. throw a few punches.

    i want to be unpredictable.
