Sorry, sometimes I like promoting random old posts in case some have missed them, or just jumped on the wagon later on. I don't know why, maybe just because I feel that my geniality/humor sometimes is overlooked and I want some re-affirmation xD

So I present you with This long non-PC stupid ass humor post and a story about My Caribbean cruise... ( Read more... )

music, humor, history

In my head, everything :P mostly the fact that none of the posts are actual for the moment, and that I'm just randomly bringing them up because my ego needs re-affirmation. In my head this is sad.

Ooh, the Caribbean cruise was before my time! That was fun to read. (And you sounded so young!)

I remain forever indebted to you for teaching me the correct pronunciation of Hoegaarden! Although I don't like beer, myself, it's always good to know.

Young, c'mon, it was only 3 years ago, I was already 20 xD

I don't like all beers, but Hoegaarden has a fruity taste, I love it!

I enjoyed your posting retrospective, but if you're having a tough week/month/year/lifetime and need some affirmation or re-affirmation - you just need to ask:

Look, you're creative and witty and fun and you like H. R. Giger and Gary Numan and all sorts of cool things. If you lived somewhere nearby, I'd be all like "we have got to hang out" and then I'd take you to Thursday night 80's night and point out how every 80s night in NYC always plays "Come On Eileen" by Dexy's Midnight Runners. I'd then ask you what you think of The Fixx and whether you've listened to anything by Orchestral Maneuvers In The Dark (or OMD) who were big in the 80s but unknown now. Then you could teach me how to pronounce nouns that have umlauts over them and what nagellackborttagningsmedel means since I don't speak Swedish.

Hopefully my silliness has cheered you up some and made you smile. For what it's worth, you're pretty cool. You care and you feel things deeply. That's rare these days. Don't let life get you down.

Haha, awesome, thanks :D yes, OMD is pure bliss in a tube for me, The Fixx I'm not all that familiar with. My current musical obsessions are It Bites' Calling out the Heroes, Lola Rennt soundtrack, John Carpenter and the Splash bands "Das Philadelphia Expeeriment" and Placebo's "See you at the Bitter End".

Nagellacksborttagningsmedel means nail polish remover!

Oh My God - someone covered John Carpenter!? I have most of his original soundtracks. I'll have to look into this.

Placebo totally rocks.

Have you listened to any of Vangelis' stuff? His soundtracks (like Blade Runner or The Bounty kick ass).

My head has trouble getting around making words that are more than twenty characters long. (;

Also, I clicked on the link to your website and it tells me it's not there.

Oh no, no cover. It's just presented as "The Splash Band" on the vinyl single's label.

VANGELIS ZOMG ORGASM-MUSIC. Blade Runner is my all time fave movie and that music just doubles the awesomeness...Gary Numan's "Love Needs No Disguise" opens in a very Blade Runnerish style.

Heh, me again I'm just a verbal acrobat, we have a monster-word in Finnish too: epäjärjestelmällistyttämättömyydelläänsäkääköhän. It looks like a cat walked all over the keyboard right? xD

...and, what link?
