I remember reading Fear and Loathing when I was a kid and losing my head. Because I liked the Beats but they didn't sing, not like I was told they would, but here was a guy that said something I understood in a language I didn't need any literary criticism to interpret. He was totally fucked in the head and acknowledged it, and not knowing the

The general feeling with everyone that I've talked to about Thompson is that we're all saddened, but no one is really shocked. It's a fucking major loss, unsurprising or not, but that's as obvious as... I don't know. Something really obvious.

[rorycochrane]

As obvious as me. I couldn't be surreptitious if I tried.

Anyway, yes, agreed. Sad but not surprising, and I think probably when the full story emerges we'll find out he was on his way anyway and just decided to hasten the process rather than drag his feet. Everything was on his terms anyway.

Hi.

[g_gershon]

As obvious as Rory. ...I like that.

I was thinking the same exact thing.

Hey.

This should be wordier.

[rorycochrane]

I was going to update about your shampoo but I thought that might be creepy.

[g_gershon]

I was going to update about your poetry but I thought that might be creepy.

[rorycochrane]

Are you around tonight? Otherwise I can stand outside your window and be creepy and throw marshmallow peeps at it.

[g_gershon]

Hmm. Well. What kind of peeps?

[rorycochrane]

I have purple and blue ones. The cat won't go near them.

I might adore that icon a little.

[g_gershon]

The purple ones match this scarf I have. Just saying. That said - yes, I'll be around.

Everyone seems to hate it, so I'm really glad to hear that. I kind of adore it too.

[rorycochrane]

I'm pretty sure you don't take a bad picture. Or icon, as it were.

[g_gershon]

I just posted. And, you're biased. But thank you.

[rorycochrane]

Sigh, you made me log in and now I want to random letter you should post daily, thank you, yes.

[g_gershon]

I appreciate your logging in. I hope it's worth it. Haha, me posting daily is the worst idea in the history of bad ideas.

[rorycochrane]

Come on, I would love a daily update of how many cigarettes you've consumed and why mueslix don't hold up in milk and how my cat likes you even more than she likes me, which, while completely understandable, still wounds my poor pitiful pride.

[g_gershon]

I love that my post is so very much kind of about that exact same thing. Unless you read it first and were just mentioning more of the everyday.

[rorycochrane]

I did read it first, hence the sudden desire to embarrass myself in riches of the strings of random letters-kind. I suppose this means I owe you something more substantial now, huh?
