Peace to my compadres in a cool quiet room with no bastards in it (room). Keep that spirit alive.

If someone were to copy and continue updating my list of smarmy softlocks (at the bottom), they could consider me very pleased.

Anyone who wants a few easy writeups can help themselves to the information in my scratchpad.

Were You 13 in the Summer of '94?

I was... The summer of 1994 is when I first discovered music outside of what my parents listened to. The "alternative" boom that was on at the time tapped right into my adolescent angst and quickly became my addiction. This playlist is an attempt to match the playlist my local radio station (WMMS) had at that time, with the constraint that all songs must have been released between 1993 and 1994. Every song is a memory stored somewhere in my brain -- I'm hoping that if I listen to them all again, I'll be able to retrieve some of those memories before they're lost forever. They're too special to me to be lost forever.

Thanks to tres equis for the Triple J Hottest 100 writeups which helped me remember many of these artists.

18:47 <Inflatable_Monk> I do express my love, but not the kind of love I would give to a girl. I express love to my family and my God. I'm not devoid of love and emotion. To me sex takes the back seat in love.
18:49 <Apatrix> sex takes the back seat only until it jumps into the driver's seat, grabs the wheel and steps on it.

dead rat game (thing)

(thing) by zhaus                     Reputation: 4 C!                  Sat Nov 13 1999 at 14:38 utc

Spinning the rat on the tail needs more and more practice, but can you do it! It is to be done to play the game to fun. Having the rat the First Person spin it over it's tail. Run away he does then so other friends left look at rat spin fun. Then&he make fun of other friends because they're not knowing what fun comes next. He take hose and sprays friends so fun! They get mad but he talk to them, "they were silly fun to watch dead rat." Then all are funny happy.






16:36 <TenMinJoe> I like the way the noded lyrics have "Whoa" in them as if Joey from Blossom was singing it.

HOWL
For Nate Oostendorp

I

I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by lesbian, monkey, and soy nodes,
getting a brain freeze from pipe linking Butterfinger McFlurry too many times,
angelheaded noders burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the e2 servers when the word galaxy comes up,
who bared their brains to the Content Editors and saw their writeups nuked to the furthest reaches of hell,
who passed through Everything University with eyes glazed over hallucinating M-noder status and the all-consuming desire for the respect of one's peers,
who were borged from the chatterbox for stoopid & adding to GTKY nodes that would soon to be destroyed,
who cowered in unshaven rooms in underwear, burning their time in the glow of a CRT and watching their writeups get up- and down-voted like beating of a heart on too much caffeine,

To be continued...?

carrot rope (thing)

(thing) by Ed Aims (print)                                                             Sat Nov 13 1999 at 09:53:30 UTC

It's Stephen Malkmus's penis to most people, and he's in the band called Pavement, also at a concert said to a fellow named bbc, Stephen Malkmus explained that there is no such thing as a carrot rope, but it was meant to be taken as this amazing thing that the character has that no one else has ever seen, and can share it with only a few people. Although everyone still thinks its his penis. But we ALL know one thing for sure at least and that its in his pocket.
