TG..." and so I thought, what do ya'll have/wear that makes you feel that

Shorts and boots. My neato hair (clean shaven except for the front bits).
My gun.

Oh wait, I don't have a gun. But when I get one...watch out!

So, Wayne, when do we get to see pix of you in these boots, anyway?

I dunno about clothing, but I feel like tank girl when I take a piss
outdoors. This phenomena usually precludes a hearty night of drinking,
which also makes me feel like tank girl.

Close. About a half squat is best, or else get piss in yer boots. The
most fun is going into SF gay bars and doing one of two things:
1) standing on the toilet seat and "taking aim."
2) leaning over the trough w/ the guys.*

To be perfectly honest I can't remember the last time I was in a bar
that didn't have a trough for guys to pee in. I can remember a
resteraunt that had a bath tub to pee in, and I've heard of one that has
a 'river', but since coming to London I've noticed that all pub toilets
have both a trough on one or more walls and a condom machine.

According to my expert sources, we never had a real name. It was just
"Drunk Girl and Friends" or something equally generic. I guess I should
put something about that on the homepage, huh. Guess no one has any old
posts saved...

The place I went to camp back when I was a wee kitten had a bathtub in the
guys' bathhouse for them to pee in. Most of us girls were WAY jealous.

Wow, it's been ages (well, since Wednesday) since I've been drunk or
otherwise fucked up. The pills I took last night were actually to combat a
killer headache (though the nice floaty feeling that went along with 'em
was nice, too).

Could be. I saw Mars Attacks and then decended on the local goth club
with buckets of friends, in a demi-birthday celebratory thing.

No one I was with would have any of my drink cos they all hated it. I
*love* bloody marys. I'd made up a liter before I got there and drank
just about all of it. I was slightly pissed, but not too much at
all. I just got tired and went home.

I've not been drunk in *hours*. It was my brithday last night, so we
went out to the student union (only about 4 of us were actually
students) and drank. Quite a bit considereing I've not been drinking
much lately. I think I started out with tequila, cos of that old
rhyme[1]. Then I turned to cider. I think I had a cider and black
followed by two snakebites (and black, of course), which were
interrrupted by a bloody mary, which was to be my last drink. Then a
new bloody mary appeared before me and someone told me it was mine. I
love those damned drinks. At this stage I was well toasted, and it was
the perfect time to stop. Especially since the pub had closed.

So we went out to a club in Soho. Early 80's music. I remember none of
it because someone decied to buy me a drink.

That was the straw which broke the camels back. (or the K cider which
made Bob heave up everything and fall asleep in the corner).

The last thing I rememebr was dancing to a eurithmics song (no, not
*that* one, the *good* one). Then I woke up about an hour later and
was sober. Damn this metabolism thing. Where's my PEK?!

By sober, I mean, I remembered everything after that, tho I was still
giggling uncontrolably.

I made it home in one piece and now feel real fragile. but maybe if I
actually ate something that would pass.

Lovely time, tho.

Well, there was Drunk Boy, another name that doesn't exactly break new
ground, originality-wise, but I thought there were a few more heros in
there too. Drunk Boy was really more of a sidekick anyway, I thought.

I had to cut in here.
I got to see Mars Attacks! this weekend. What a fantastic film! Is't it
great to see a movie where alien invaders have a sense of humour?
I just loved the bit with the boy scouts - and don't forget the part where
the martians were about to kill grandma. Heh.

You know, most of the NYC critics just weren't too fond of the film. I
guess they've forgotten how to just cut loose and have fun. I mean,
serious criticism has its place and all, but not for a film whose hero
thinks everyone should live in tepees because it's just better that way.

Coffee tends to either not do me much good (like when I need to be awake
for my 9am class) or to make me really hyperactive and jumpy and twitchy
and impatient (like when I have it for lunch right before the one class I
really like). Sigh. Maybe I should go back to having alcoholic lunches.

I didn't hear what Barry Norman had to say about the movie (did you Bob?),

I have 2 ISPs (3 if you count my office account), but only one has full
news feed. If you can call it that. I'm probably going to change providers
soon because my current one is changing to 0845 numbers which is usually
local call rate. Unfortunately, my phone operator charges more for that
number. Bastards.

Because I don't have the cash right now, pretty much. Also, it's a lot
harder to get away with drinking at lunch when yr at work with yr boss
right there than it is when you have yr own little fiefdom like I did over
break.

He's not so bad. Like siskel or ebert with an education. He has a show
called Film 97 (Last year it was called Film 96). You can tell he
cares about what he doesn, but is opinionated. some of his reviews
boil down to "It was a good movie, but I personally thot it was crap".
I don't remember his opinion of Mars Attacks. I think I missed that
one.

You know, this newsgroup is such a great place. If anyone ever asks me,
"Where's the love, man?"
My reply to them will be,
"It's all on alt.fan.tank-girl and there's plenty to go around!"
After which I will take a huge swig of Drambui and stomp around like

Strange, I never saw this post from Jill. Damn newsreader.
Anyway my friends and I tend to rip on Sparky's for a couple of
reasons. One night my friend Rocky and I ordered a couple of burgers to
be delivered. We dared not to go down there in person because of:
a) our intoxication level and
b) because we hate being near (much less *eating with*) all the hipsters
and beautiful people.
Had we stood in line and had to listen to such pretentious fucks, Rocky
and I would have gotten into a brawl.
Back to the story, so we have the food delivered and not only did they
fuck up the order, but the food looked like shit, the delivery guy
couldn't find us and the food cost WAY too much. (Would you pay $8 for
a shitty burger that looked like it came out of a Krusty Burger drive
thru?)

As a result, Rocky and I have vowed never to eat Sparky's food again.
No matter how hungry we are, no matter how late it is, never.
And I don't mean to rip on Jill about this. It is just obvious that we
had very different experiences. I'm glad someone had good food at that
place.
Plan on me ripping Sparky's a new asshole in my "food after midnight in
SF" review.

Alicia
Who feels that if you have to have food that late at night, go to El
Farlito on Mission Street. A much more interesting and diverse crowd.

I post to alt.gothic.fashion much more often. I have a Netscape
newsreader problem of not being able to subscribe to a.g. I'm on a
couple of email lists (sf-goth, and C3) so that's good enough for me.

Dammit Bob! C3 is the one reason to come here, and you'll be in

I'm one of the uk people who bailed in favour of uk.people.gothic.
It's just like a.g was 3 years ago. I don't get a.g.f here.

Well, if they postpone C3 like I've heard rumours about, I might make
it, but I've not got the spare dosh for a cross country thing. (I must
also stop in DC while I'm there).

Besides, I'd rather go to a net.goth weddding than C3, to be perfectly
honest. The last one was more fun than I've had in *years*.

So they released a 10th-Annversary edition of Highlander, with extra
scenes and director/producer commentary and shit. It was like a laserdisk
on tape, actually. I had forgotten how not-great that movie is! The
commentary on the selected scenes at the end was pretty funny, though,
cause they were just kind of bullshitting around like they were seeing the
movie for the first time in a few years (which they probably were) and
being amused at nipples.

That kind of sucks, but at least you got yr food delivered. Damaged and I
called up Paul's Burgers (home of the best, fattest burgers ever in NYC)
which is literally 3 blocks from our humble abode to get some dinner
delivered the other night, and they told us that they don't go to our
street after dark. I guess no one told them that the bad part of town has
moved a few blocks farther east.

If only! I'm actually planning to flee the country after I graduate (one

be too upset if I accidentally miss my plane home or forget to buy a

if you consider sober to be 0 and drunk to be 1, knurd is -1. what you get
when you drink that really grim turkish coffee out of containers larger

Yeah, as a mostly-full-time cyberneticist we tend to get bothered by

Like in the scifi section of Kim's video, where it seems that half the
movies are cyber-something. Like CyberNinjas, or CyberSluts2000.

Heh. I saw this internal memo from 17magazine (not the smutty one) or
Sassy or something that was all talking about how 'mega' and 'teen' (or
whatever words stopped being hip in 1993) shouldn't be used in the
magazine any more, but that 'cyber' and other stuff should.

Oh, I wish so much I could just hop a plane to Heathrow right now, but

Yeah, but don't tell my parents. It's more of a cashflow problem at the

Castro Valley, California and maybe a little bit of Irvine in the same
state. Doesn't really compare to london, which explains my hesitancy to

Woohoo! I like my coffee strong enough to kick the waitress's ass,

I've seen it in most of the sex shops I've been in (not that I'm confessing to
ever having been in any sex shops, much less so many that I can use phrases
like "most of the ones I've been in." I admit nothing.) Seems to be pretty
common in the States, anyway. I've also seen it in some punk and goth-type
stores.

> Trev.
> - Black latex rules!

Yeah. One time I saw a Web site with a guy with a mohawk nearly covered in
black latex (not that I'm confessing to ever having gone to Web sites that
contain latex pictures.) If I can remeber the URL, I'll post it. Great photo.

Hmm. Tried asking people in #gothik and the best they could come up with
was "try looking in the back of Fangoria" which I guess I'll have to do.

We got ours at a store called the Leatherman in NYC, although they bought
it from some sex toy person in California. I can send you the Cali
address if you'd like to order yr own, or I can pick you up some once I
get money again. I know it comes in black, clear, red, and, I think, some
other colors.

I liked Muncie, Indiana. I met my husband at a Thespian Convention at
Ball State University. It was a cute little college town. Of course give
me a liquor store, a some grass, a stereo and a lawn chair and I'm cool
anywhere. I grew up in Missouri.

Castro Valley isn't all that bad....it's just small and slow...I live
right down the street from CV. What are you going there for? I live in
Hayward.

What's the job market like in London, anyway? As long as there are
computers around my husband can get a job...and as soon as I finally
graduate (in, check this out kids, 3.5 years) I'll be able to work
anywhere ASL is used. Which is America. As far as I know English people
use a different form of sign. Anyway, I'm going to be 28 when I finally
graduate. Jesus strike me down this college thing takes forever when you
switch majors three times and take two years off to put your husband
through school.....
