How is it that I've never heard of so many of the things that constitute formative touchstones for you? It's odd--we're about the same age, and grew up in the same country, after all.
Anyway, thanks for the link; I love the film transcript. Military discourse can have such a bracing clarity. "You will be aloof, watchful and suspicious." What more is there to say?
It's because I'm much, much cooler. CV was sort of an acquired taste, and unless you really liked machine music you were unlikely to bump into them. Part of the charm, of course, is that no one else can manage to listen to the whole LP without screaming or falling asleep.
Not to tip off the revolution, but I've already been contacted by unf, and the coup will occur shortly. The blood of FL will run all over unfogged, as the non-posting underclass will kill the bourgeois posters.
I love how half the other articles by that guy are on the theme of why are single girls attracted to jerks. To which a tentative response might be, "because the 'jerks' don't show up at nightclubs hoping a handpuppet will help them get laid".

CV was good, but what I really want to know is, Labs, are you out to challenge ogged on the "who gets laid less" front? Because why?

I will rule this blog with an iron fist!

Ok, that was actually funny.

Funny, but hollow. Labs is on a college campus; he can't possibly not have sex for as long as I can.

Kinda depends on the campus though, doesn't it?

Wanna bet? I have never fucked anyone from or on a college campus, ever. Not in all my years of fucking.

Oh no wait, that's not true. I meant, not since I was an undergrad.
Which was so long ago I'd almost forgotten it.

Is that you, Labs?
Posted by apostropher | Link to this comment | 02- 3-05 8:02 PM
No, I'm here.

Oh. Well, you should get you one of those helmets all the same.

Dude, I can't get that picture to work.

Oh, man. I'd pay a lot to hear Amanda Lear sing that transcript. Please, Amanda! Please!

I think I have found the answer for both of you. How could this not work?
