Hey, Farl..

I think he likening you to Adam Sandler.  Which isn't exactly a good thing.

The Pelé film: Escape to Victory.
The greatest escape film ever.  It had Bobby Moore, Michael Caine and Sly Stallone in, too.  An unmatchable combination, even today.

The Club.  Count me in.  As long as it's germ free..  and symmetrical.

Hey

Kinda rollercoaster of emotions..  well, for me anyway.  It had me wishing I was dead, happy that I'm alive, then wishing I was dead, again.

On the whole, tho, it's a depressingly sweet story.  Probably not the descriptive term you were aiming at, but it was.  It made me kinda warm inside, while also making me want to sob like a girl.

I also loved the little fuzzy box of commitment metaphor.  (If it is a metaphor, it's been a while since I studied English).

Hey

First thing's first..

Now, the reason for that elipse? Simple.  Something bad will happen if I didn't post it.  You see, at four am this morning, I woke up to see a man-sized version of n3tgraph's avatar swing open my bedroom door and tell me that I had to do it.  Yea, so it was a dream, a very odd dream, but a dream none-the-less.

However, knowing it was just a dream doesn't help, and I have the gut instinct that I *need* to post that pic.  If I don't, then I've convinced myself either the Mittens flight will crash or my dog will die.  Now it's posted, both disasters have been averted.  There's no way I want to be responsible for offing Britain's finest (and Farl).

The reason I have this "saving the world by stupidly" thing going on, dates back to the fourth of July, 1999.  Me and two friends were in San Fransisco, on holiday.  Jamiraquoi (spelling's probably way off) played a free concert in Union Square.  Me and a friend bought T-shirts to commemorate the occasions.  Now, I have the paranoia that I *have* to wear it on the fourth of July, every year.  In 2001, I forgot.  A plane crashed.  I blame myself.

This got me thinking, tho.  It's not the only paranoia I have.  For instance, if I touch something with my left hand, I'll have to touch it with my right hand.  Often, this ends in a complicated yet, ultimately symmetrical pattern, with me touching the thing the same amount of times with each hand.  This is dumb, I know, but I feel uneasy if I don't do it.  It the same with spinning around, equal spins clockwise and anti-clockwise/counter-clockwise.

Toilet paper.  Another nightmare, this time involving me using exactly the same amount of sheets each time.  If it rips, I have to throw it away and get a new bit.  I don't know why, maybe I'm scared that my ass my fall off..

And sofas.  If I lay on a sofa, my feet have to be towards the left, and my head on the right.  When I tried it the other way round, I felt nauseous and started to freak out.

I have trouble walking nowadays, not from arthritus or anything valid, but because I'm always looking at the floor to see where I put my feet.  I've been known to walk back down a road, purely to step on a certain paving slab that I felt I had missed earlier.  Since I'm usually nocturnal, I end up walking in the actual roads, just because there's less cracks for me to avoid.

I'm sure I have many others, but off the top of my head, I can't think of them.. but, I am worried.  I'm getting worse.  It's not long before I either turn into the poor man's Howard Hughes, living in a hermetically sealed bubble, where everything is symmetrical..  or in a mental hospital, rocking back and forth, crossing and uncrossing my fingers and toes, worrying that the world will fall apart if I don't do it right.

Also, I've found my mother has a paranoia, walking across certain parts of roads, she'll make sure that both feet touch a certain part of it, otherwise she won't feel comfortable.  She always does it, but has only noticed it recently when I was discussing some of my habits.  When I asked her what would happen if didn't do it next time, she didn't know, but got kinda worried about it.

So, I have two questions.  One, what paranoias/Obsessive Compulsive Habits/whatevers do you have?  I'm pretty sure you have at least one, even if you don't realise it at first..  And two, what do I have to do to get rid of these short of a cocktail of psychiatric counselling and prozac?

Your explaination is even more baffling than your reply.

What are the rules to this game, and the point, if either even exist?

Parson's Green, Mortimer's 2nd amendment, Great Western Axis, Seven Sisters?

wtf? is this something that is only played by edinburgh smack addicts? or does the rest of the country join in?

Darth, I got "Eeeew"-ed for liking the Nazis.

OTG, why's that little guy giving me the finger?
#633
Hey

The only prob I can see with uploading pics of nazi's is the slave driving exploitation of the poor bugger who had to shine those guys' boots.

K, here's my two cents..

Politics:
Bill Clinton - he might have screwed up, but he cares.  9/11 he was in New York quick, doing what he could.  Georgie Boy wouldn't have done the same.
Jimmy Carter - he was a peanut farmer.

Music:
The Who - all four, for redefining rock.
Sonic Youth - all four, for redefining it again.
Wes Borland - suffered being in Limp Bizkit, just so he could release his own stuff, like Ginormous Penis Laser.  As far as I know, it flopped.

Films:
Peter Jackson - pre-LOTR, when he had absolutely no budget but managed to make the films look incredible.
David Niven - only worked to pay for his various habits.
Humphrey Bogart - the *original* rat pack.

TV:
Monty Python - redefined comedy.
Adam and Joe/Antoines de Caunes - they don't if anyone watches, as long as they have a good time.
The Kids in the Hall/Sledgehammer/Red Dwarf - couldn't fault them if I tried..  (well, except RD near the end).

Family:
My Grandad - worked when he felt like it, drank all the time, had to put up with my Nan, cope with various illnesses..  but still *always* had a smile on his face.
My mum - the amount of crap she's had to put up with over the last 23 years.

Friends:
Mr. C and Oniichan - made me what I am today.
