Practicing bass. Talking to Ken C. Preparing a screen for screenprinting tomorrow that I can't fuck up. Drinking coffee. Going on three hours sleep. Listening to the Kinks.

worked all day, feet are too sore to go out but I kind of wish I did now. my friends went to an outdoor rave where they had their own rig setup and were playing but I didn't bother. got chinese food and some beers.

― Ronan (Ronan), Saturday, 29 May 2004 22:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Two parties going on tonight that sound fantastic. Sadly, I have a busted ankle and am sitting here looking at OKCupid profiles instead of talking to real actual girls and having fun. Argh!

I'm also failing to make my last beer last as long as I want it to.

I have 2 left, I'd give you one, if I could.

― Ronan (Ronan), Saturday, 29 May 2004 22:50 (twenty-two years ago)

they had their own rig setup

I read that as had their own rjg set up.

I have been watching Big Brother, and the ensuing Friends-a-thon. It was either that or going to the pictures with the mister and his pals to see the Day After Tomorrow. Wine, the random button on ILX and shitty games have helped to pass the evening.

DEAR IAN JOHNSON, GET A RIDE

Checking emails, eating some popcorn, setting up my own rjg, you know, the usual.

tired out from an awesome but exhausting day that included walking along queen st with friends, buying a new bike (!) and seeing a baseball game. due to an overload of work, have decided to forgo the big c0nst@ntines show downtown but have unsurprisingly ended up on ilx instead.

Went to bed at about 8.30 this morning, so the evening kind of crept up on me. Finally ate something other than toast at midnight. Read through the entirety of the two Kompakt threads on ILM. Feel better.

Played a few games of tennis in a nearby park, and am now considering what to eat for dinner.

Listening to my dog snore. No, that's not exactly right. I'm actually listening to the radio and trying to block out the other sound. I don't think this will go down in history as a memorable evening.

Dropped Sarah and her mom off at the el station. Drove to video store. Went to convenience store, bought frozen pizza and beer. Went to another convenience store, bought cat food. Came home. Drank beer, cooked pizza, watched Attack on Precinct 13, ate pizza. Wandered around apartment. Played video games. Watched a little bit of crappy tv. Got online.

quitting chemicals is proving much duller than i expected. i think i might borrow some of the roommate's tequila and watch a bridge too far or something really lame like that.

i would've gone to the cons'tines show (why are we google proofing their name¿) had i been able to talk someone into going avec moi.

Jon made me leave the show before the almighty Vincebus Eruptum played. Bummer.

― Ian Johnson (orion), Sunday, 30 May 2004 04:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Played Halo most of the evening, then went to my rehearsal studio w/girlfriend because she wanted me to take many pictures of her. Saturday night ended up being less boring than I expected, actually.

― Jordan (Jordan), Sunday, 30 May 2004 04:51 (twenty-two years ago)

― Ian Johnson (orion), Sunday, 30 May 2004 04:54 (twenty-two years ago)

All kinds of pictures - sexy, sexxy, AND sexxxy.

all three kinds! hurray!

Watched Courtney Love on Howard Stern Show. Laughed heartily. Wasted tons of time on Smiths vs Beatles thread. Will waste more.

― AaronHz (AaronHz), Sunday, 30 May 2004 05:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Worked on websites. Read interview book with John and Yoko. Ended up seeing "The Day After Tomorrow" with my dad, cos on Monday I'm moving out again and probably won't see him for months.

The movie was alright, really just a big special effects show wrapped in a cliched environmental message. Parts of it were fun tho. Now im smoking cigarettes and listening to T-Rex on vinyl and wondering why no-one has called or emailed me all weekend. I guess now all i have to do is wait to go to work tomorrow.

Oh i wasted a lot of time on Smiths vs. Beatles too (and it definitely felt like a waste even at the time, tho it was fun!!).

I watched Zoolander again, and then the episode of Friends with Brad Pitt came on, after that I went to bed. So, not really a bad Saturday Night, don't get confused I'm no big Brad Pitt fan, that episode is just kinda funny. And Zoolander is one of the best films ever made.

i had lobster and too much sancerre with my parents, then i slipped on 10th street and spilled iced espresso on a chihuahua. i drank sparks on the subway and saw white magic play an excellent show at my friend's loft party. my current favorite glaswegian said he'd have my babies, which is nice though obviously a physical impossibilty. i gave him my other can of sparks in appreciation of the sentiment. after the bands i went see my friend play records at (unbeknownst to me) the reverend horton heat afterparty. !!?!?!. i was made to drink lots of jagermeister, and my friend's girlfriend kept jumping on top of the bar to dance. i didn't join her, although my best friend and i did a beautiful dip-and-twirl routine to "baby, i love you." it was bluish reddish sunny when i left, and the police had just pulled up to raid the bar for being open past five. guess what? i'm still slightly tipsy.

beer, Used Cars, mediocre pop punk band, Tonto's Demise (some mixed drink), good garage band a little too focused on the word "rock," danced with some girls to Billy Idol and Quiet Riot (haha the pre-programmed bar "rock" station was as good if not better than usual hipster DJ who is sometimes me), pizza, ecstatically buying the new SPIN at 3am cuz I just found out the YYYs were on the cover, went home and fell asleep to Fever To Tell

Majorly mondo tired from being at thanksgiving service for my friends' late grandmother all day, went to my dad's to watch satellite TV and continue to die from my flu. Watched The Mummy Returns with my little cousins, went home, took more medication, watched the first Mummy on terrestrial TV (whoa, spookular), watched parts of Night of The Living Dead on a very bad signal, mentally reassessed my summer plans, thought about the interview I have on Tuesday, fell asleep uncomfortably, wishing I could drink (accursed antibiotics).

My mom had knee replacement surgery, so i picked her up from the hospital and brought her home (to her house). I stayed over, and did stare longingly at her bottles of Oxycontin and other good pain killers, but decided that stealing drugs from my mother was pushing it. Drank Nyquil instead. Slept. My mom is doing well...

This will be a very low-key evening thanks to THE HORRIBLE ILLNESS that has sucked away three days of my life so far, bleah.

I delivered pizza for a while. I stopped at the gas station on my way home to my apartment. I got home, washed my hair, and put clothes on to go out. Now I'm websurfing and listening to illegally obtained music. And listening to my idiot neighbor's soundsystem as it periodically inundates my ceiling with the bass range of the soundtrack from whatever movie it is that he's watching. Is it worth my time to go up there and tell him to turn it down? Or should I just go to the bars early instead of waiting for a phonecall from the people I'm going to be meeting there? Decisions, decisions.

And also I'm being totally surprised that I responded to this thread the first time around. Jesus fuck, how long have I been lurking on ILX?

― Chris F. (servoret), Sunday, 14 August 2005 01:38 (twenty years ago)

I peeled and cut up some peaches, sprinkled just a tiny amount of sugar over them to get the juice going, then grated a small knob of ginger into them. Stir, let sit an hour or two, hey presto tasty. Oh yeah, I threw in some blueberries too.

I should throw all of that in the blender with some vodka, now that I think about it.

― Truckdrivin' Buddha (Rock Hardy), Sunday, 14 August 2005 01:41 (twenty years ago)

DUD - going to a small party where almost everyone gets so drunk that they speak a drunk-girl language consisting mostly of "whooooo" and "oooohh" and "ewwwweeeeeee" and stuff like that, and it makes no sense to you and you leave

i went to this awesome house party in South LA and danced til 2:30am! the cops were parked outside with spotlights! a guy dressed as superman started to run around the house with a chainsaw and the cops came in and he threatened them with the chainsaw! they went to arrest him but he said, "see this motherfuckers?? NO CHAIN! can't take me in now!" The cops looked at one another and said, "He's right!" and went back outside. There were 70 yr olds and 10 yr olds at this thing. kick ass. And I'm not even hungover!

i went to tribeca grand but blackstrobe were nowhere to be seen and the downstairs was closed up! i danced for awhile anyway, ended up going to some zillionaire's apartment on 59th street where there were like five people sitting around listening to, i dunno, cafe del mar at very low volume, doing coke and talking about their business. gah what a fucking disappointment. i should have come to your warriors party like i'd planned to all along, phil :(

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Sunday, 30 October 2005 20:19 (twenty years ago)

After yesterday's ZombieWalk, went to halloween party at friend of roommate's house. Two stinky bands played. Talked to plenty of random folks. Didn't exactly get digits, but got an email addr from a tall chick who'd been talking about going to see Dead Moon that night. And all the while, I was covered in blood, too!

Somebody got off their closing shift at Starbucks, and brought plenty of soon-to-be-expired food, so my other roommate & i loaded up as much of it as we could hold at the end of the night. Free lunch!

I had a totally non-boring Saturday night, for once, at a party. It was more a housewarming than a specifically Halloween party, though a couple of people did make the effort. A fun time all around, and great company.

― CharlieNo4 (Charlie), Sunday, 30 October 2005 20:52 (twenty years ago)

Mine wasn't boring, exactly, but it was...odd. Went to a house party with a new girl friend, who I like but don't know well so it's all in that cautious-circling stage, and she and her boyfriend are so quiet and gentle that around them I feel like a big jaded oaf who pulls wings off ladybugs. There were only about 8 people there and they were all BIZARRE, and not even in interesting ways -- all friendly but I'm telling you it was THE high-water mark of social dysfunction and it was SUFFOCATING.

Oy. I tried to behave like a calm, thoughtful person and not cuss too much but overall it was like turning up & finding everyone speaking a language I didn't know, nothing that was said or done seemed to have the import I expected. Next time can we please have less of the saccharine punch, ditto the conversation, and more of the gimlets & chain-smoking & making out?

I failed to go to the biggest firework show in North London which happened 10 minutes walk from my front door. That was kind of by accident though, it ran from 7:30-8:00 and I was thinking of going out about 8 and figured it would be on later. Oh well.

My boring Saturday night has so far been slightly livened up by upstairs neighbours banging on the ceiling for reasons I'm currently unable to discern. I am listening to music, but it's on tinny computer speakers at a barely audible volume even to me and I'm sitting a foot away from them!

You know, I know there were moderately funny bits throughout, but I can't remember them. The show ended a half hour ago!

But after several consecutive awful episodes, just getting back up to mediocrity was impressive enough for me.

I watch SNL like some people follow a sports team - sometimes you have to watch your team have a crappy season. To me, the frustrating thing about SNL in the past two or three years is that the cast is full of pretty good performers - it's the writing that's awful.

I spent two hours of Saturday night sat on a cold platform at the wonderfully named Pokesdown station in Bournemouth, waiting for a train that eventually turned up and dropped me, not at Waterloo, but in the middle of Hampshire due to a broken rail.

Then I waited another two hours for a replacement bus, which took an hour to get me to Southampton, then there was a 30 minute wait for a train back to London, which took 90 minutes. I eventually got home around 10pm, discovered there was no beer in the fridge and that the offie was closed, so I took the dog for a walk, stopped off at a local chavpub for a pint and then went to bed.

It's almost like admitting defeat to admit "This is my life: Saturday night and I am reading Dostoyevsky." Not that being on the computer is any better, or anything. At least I'm not just looking at porn on the Internet or something. Actually, I haven't done that yet. I'm going to go do that now.

I fell in love with Chateau de Campuget, Cuvee Prestige, 2001. So I ordered 6 bottles of it. This is the first one. They say it's supposed to be best in 2012. I can't even imagine it being better. Like chocolate cake, a little at a time. Also I really love raspberry chocolate cake. Anyone got any raspberry chocolate cake? Can you pass it over here? Thanks.

I had a dream about Bryan Ferry last night that totally cracked me up. I think we were on the "Love Boat" or something, you know, that old TV show? I'm actually not much of a Ferry fan, though I do like some Roxy Music a lot.

I watched Jackie Brown and got takeout. Half of my pizza was squashed in transit and bits of salami and capsicum were stuck to the top of the lid. It looked like someone sat on it. When I was cleaning up this morning I thought of Uncle Herb - "discarded pizza boxes are an inexpensive source of cheese."

Went to an instore to see a couple of art/punk bands we know. Good fun, drinking 40s in paper bags. Then caught some whataburgers and met friends at the Carousel Lounge (BYOB dive with bizarre circus theme down the street from us.) Lastly back to ours for some dominoes and satiellite radio.

Jody, you seem to have an odd fetish for photographing your meals.

As for my Saturday night -- had the gf's parents over for dinner in our apartment for the first time. All things considered it went ok -- I thought it was a bad idea to begin with since her dad is a major foodie and a very critical person, but it went ok. I need to drink the other half of the bottle of wine now.

Once, on a visit to North Carolina where the gfs parents live now, while my gf and her mom were shopping, her dad took me into Williams Sonoma and literally took me shelf by shelf, telling me something about everything in the entire store -- (in thick Israeli accent) "This... this... this is the BEST porcelain like you have only in 3-star Michelin restaurant in France... these knifes, they are German knives, HIGHEST quality! But...but the Japanese have killed them now...this is Le Creuset, it is the BEST! It is like a dream to own an entire set of Le Creuset ..."

bottom line: i think cooking and food presentation are interesting. i also think photography is fun, and i want to get better at it, and (amateur) food photography is a relatively easy way to practice, esp. in low-light settings like restaurants.

i'm really honestly surprised that ilx has such deep-seated issues with looking at pictures of food. it says more about you guys than it does about me. sheesh, it's not like i'm not posting images of 13-year-old girls.

My mom sent me a package of Omaha Steaks last week and that was what we made, along with oven-roasted potatoes that came out fantastic. They seem like good steaks, but the whole shipping meat through the mail thing is a little weird (even with dry ice) and a couple of them appeared to be slightly discolored.

We also bought a peach-raspberry pie from the new gourmet store in town which was great but a tad too sweet.

Stephen, this was at Sound On Sound on North Loop. While Waterloo is likely to have a Bob Schneider instore the road bands and punk acts play at Sound on Sound.

JBR, I got tired of looking at pictures period. At least ones where people were in it were interesting but picture after picture of plates of food got really boring really fast. I'm not trying to be rude b/c, truly, switching images off has been one of my best ILX experiences ever. I enjoy this place so much more now that I can pick and choose my images.

After my usual semi-unplanned disco nap, left for the local bars just as the first snow of the winter began falling. At the gaybar, I dared to play the Dinosaur Jr "Just Like Heaven" cover which inspired a complaint to the bartender. (Like, I keep my mouth shut when it's nonstop Aimee Mann.) See, I alienate strangers even without the help of the internets.

Fortunately my Kirsty MacColl selection had an Elektra recording artist bouncing in her seat, so the night ended happily.

if i didn't use it there'd be DARKNESS
I really love what you've done with your hair

No, its jukebox somehow came up empty at 3:15 on Saturday night.

― phil-two (phil-two), Monday, 5 December 2005 22:05 (twenty years ago)

Not in my history. It's fun when the queens aren't bitchin' bout Dinosaur Jr. Thursday nights are pretty good.

Ken, I hope you didn't rent F for Fake from TLA, cuz it's out every time I ask!

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Monday, 5 December 2005 22:09 (twenty years ago)

The gaybar I was at last night was playing a club remix of Eamon's "I Don't Want You Back."

According to this thread, I've only had one boring Saturday night evah! Oh well, make that 2 now. Not much shakin here, though I enjoyed a ride in the car earlier with the tunes blasting. Odd, seems I did that last time around.

― jim wentworth (wench), Sunday, 29 January 2006 05:06 (twenty years ago)

In with the wife, watching Lost off bit torrent, listening to some quality music by the likes of Sham 69, Inspiral Carpets, Sultans Of Ping, Conflict, Ol' Dirty Bastard and perennial favourite Grey Cell Green by Ned's Atomic Dustbin.

I've also taken the opportunity to get stuck into the brandy.

― Colonel Poo (Colonel Poo), Sunday, 29 January 2006 05:07 (twenty years ago)

i've been working, comme toujours. now heading home. for an exciting glass of wine or two. and maybe some (wait for it) cd filing. the cd situation is getting out of hand again.

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Sunday, 29 January 2006 05:09 (twenty years ago)

I, too, experienced the majesty of CD filing this evening. I also discussed the possibility of obtaining further shelving from Argos for this purpose.

― Colonel Poo (Colonel Poo), Sunday, 29 January 2006 05:10 (twenty years ago)

more shelves isn't an option chez nous (je ne sais pas why i'm talking all frenchy tonight), so i'm transferring them from jewel cases into plastic sleeves, magically tripling my storage space.

and making it impossible to ever find anything, of course.

― gypsy mothra (gypsy mothra), Sunday, 29 January 2006 05:16 (twenty years ago)

ooh, plastic sleeves, good luck with that. ;-)

i went to the local symphony's concert entitled, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOZART!" (no comma). my sister plays in it and we got comp tickets. anyway, run of the mill lyric soprano singing mozart arias and making me bitter that she's getting paid to sing and i'm not (even though i'm not a lyric). i spent the evening trying not to strangle offensive southerners who, in addition to clapping between movements and giving a standing ovation at the end of every peice, felt compelled to talk and crinkle candy wrappers through the entire performance.

now i am home, folding my father's laundry and dreading getting up at 6 to drive back to rochester.

ah, BUT i put the cds in there between the booklet and the back cover (which i have to trim wid scixxors to get to fit in the booklet, rendering it completely unresellable, which means i'm stuck with these forever...but in 10 years nobody'll be buying used cds anymore anyway, right?), so that the cds never touch plastic. but whatever. i accumulate these things at a rate such that some attrition would almost be a blessing.

and the wine of the night is a rioja. not bad.

I spent the last night home, it was the first time in ages I haven't gone anywhere on a Saturday night. I didn't feel like I was missing anything because I had a good reason to stay in: I need to finish this book and write and essay on it before next Wednesday. It was kinda cool to wake up as early as 10AM on a Sunday morning, with the sun shining and me not feeling the slightest bit of a hangover.

I can't drink because my mom thinks I'm an alcoholic. Also, a painting fell of the wall onto my head. My mom came into my bedroom (without knocking; I had my headphones on and scared the shit out of me -- thanks for the privacy!) and informed me that it happened to my grandma too and she wasn't planning on moving it to somewhere it won't fall. Thanks a lot.

went with pp and kid to outback to immerse her in the closest thing weve got to australian culture (ha). heard myself pronouncing aussie as "ossie" instead of "ozzie" when ordering the "aussie chips", which were really bad. ordered steak medium and got medium rare which is exactly the outcome i anticipated. came home, put the kid to bed. got the rest of the tags on gta:sa, won 12:1 longshot at offtrack betting on the first try then failed five times at the bmx challenge before giving up. read infantcide thread and considered hipstercide (justifiable on grounds of social retardation obv) and now its 1:31am and pp is about to make cj jump off a really tall los santos skyscraper sans parachute. oh wait, he put the parachute on.

the best things on outback's menu are the burgers

― El Tomboto, Sunday, 23 March 2008 06:46 (eighteen years ago)

i didnt even see the burgers. i asked for the ribeye. i probably wouldnt have if id known the waitress would sit herself down in the booth between beatrice and I to tell me how they have three types of ribeye - ribeye, chargrilled ribeye and the limited edition 20th anniversary 24 hour marinated flame grilled ribeye.

it reminded me of this old man sitting in the booth next to us a few years ago at ihop. he looked 90 something and like the clock was about to run out. he asked for pancakes and the waitress started with the "blueberry? strawberry?" "PANCAKES" "with eggs? bacon? ham?". looking at his wife "I JUST WANT PANCAKES." I think about that guy all the time.

anyway, i really like that weird bread they have at outback. a butter knife wouldnt go astray though.

― sunny successor, Sunday, 23 March 2008 07:02 (eighteen years ago)

here the real question: do the burgers have sliced beets on them?

if by 'beets' you mean 'fingernails' then 'yes'

Don't get paid 'til Monday, mates and gf all out on piss, having some popcorn to cheer me up. Could have borrowed £50, but this will only mean being short again this time next month. Feels weird, cause I always at least go to the local spoonies.

What's your excuse?

― Bodrick III, Sunday, 30 March 2008 00:47 (eighteen years ago)

Yeah I'm having money problems meself. Which isn't actually all that common for me, so it feels strange to suddenly have to skimp on groceries, for one thing. *shrugs* I'll survive, though. Just no more drunken iTunes madness, etc.

I'm drinking cheap beer at home.

― Bimble, Sunday, 30 March 2008 00:53 (eighteen years ago)

No booze for me, I have half a bottle of Smirnoff left but I'm saving it in case my mates fancy a couple when they get back. ITV's Nightwatch Mysteries looks quite good tonight anyway.

Blew a bunch of dough at Amoeba and the CLUI bookstore this afternoon, so I'm in for the night. Current entertainment options:

- 2 x CD of Holly & The Italians demos and unreleased tracks (purchased at Amoeba)
- Last episode of Ashes To Ashes (finished downloading when I was out)
- Grey Gardens and random episodes of Futurama sitting on the Tivo
- Moog Moogerfooger analog delay pedal that I need to get up to speed on

― Elvis Telecom, Sunday, 30 March 2008 02:19 (eighteen years ago)

No way! I've been thinking really heavily about Holly & The Italians lately! I should pull that CD-R out right now, damnit.

Previous options might be preempted because the original Thomas Crown Affair just started on TCM.

ooh is the original good? i have only seen the remake. art theft is so attractive for some reason!

― bell_labs, Sunday, 30 March 2008 03:16 (eighteen years ago)

I like both versions - the original one has tons of abstract style but not the same kind of tension/suspense the remake does.

I am in CT, watching preseason baseball on TV, where I will have to get up and change beds when 15-month-old niece awakens around 5:30.

Of course there is also the technicality was that I wasn't really sure if I was invited, but maybe somebody didn't have my address.

Closing scene: real Peter Fonda and Blythe Danner pass themselves off as the robot versions of themselves - successfully talking their way past the Evil Scientist at the airport terminal. Just as they're about to step onto the shuttle to take them away from the *Worlds, the robot Danner (who we thought was killed earlier) shows up - muttering "they're the real ones!" Alarmed, E.S. looks down the hallway to the gates where the real P.F. is looking back. Fonda then flips off E.S. with the most spirited, widescreen, and intent flipping of the bird before running into the airplane. Disgruntled E.S. can do nothing more than pound his fists on the balcony.

trying to play mario kart against random people in the world when the DVD player spookily turned itself on. they're both on the same scart input so i couldn't see the race. couldn't find tthe DVD remote (who plays DVDs these days anyway) and the player wouldn't turn off on the unit. power and scart connex are behind heavy telly. so sod it. watch PVRd stuff instead (that's on the other scart input)

We moved yesterday and woke up to major drama (huge leak dripping into our flat from the neighbor above who is out of town, bldg mgr out of town, etc etc etc, lock drilled out, problem contained and cleaned up by us, welcome to the building!), so a boring night getting liquored up at home watching dvds would be great. If we could find all the cables and necessary remotes. And, some glasses. But we also are going to the housewarming of friends and will be boring by leaving early.

I saw her here in May but the day before the show she did an ACL taping. My friend had some tickets left on her desk but we had left work early to go to a yarn store! This made me sick. I still got to see her but the ACL studio is tiny. I work right across the alley from it so missing my favorite acts' tapings is just unforgivable.

Does going to a party you were invited to by yourself make you a loser? None of my friends responded to invites, and my friend last night ditched me ... so I've got the whole inside-way-too-much desocialized weirdness going on.

― burt_stanton, Sunday, 8 February 2009 02:11 (seventeen years ago)

Fuck it, I'm not going to a party by myself. In New York the most embarassing feeling in the world is being that one lone guy walking to somewhere to be, and seeing all these throngs of groups of friends having fun on their way to similar events.

aw i don't think so. i think new york is a place where walking to somewhere to be is kind of an activity in itself (+ often better than getting to the somewhere). i know it's a montage of every different kind of goodtimes, but it can be soothing.

i do not mean to cast doubt on the quality of my nachos! but the saturdays of late are turning into mildly dull recovery nights. eg there's nothing inherently wrong with getting a pizza and watching football, but when you've been out till 4 on thursday and friday it does seem a bit lacking in hijinks!

so I left my neighbourhood to go to some party in west london with a girl from where I grew up in Dublin whom I met on the plane home a few weeks ago and assorted people from my small hometown.

WHY THE FUCK DID I THINK THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA?

the club was 10 pounds in, beer was 4 for a bottle, and it was weird and alienating, ultra loutish and really aggressively mainstream with bad music.

then i had to get two night buses home.

what a dumb saturday night. i am stupid.

We are chilling on the couch together because she got halfway on and then looked at me like 'aren't you coming?' so I did. I asked her if she likes being a dog but she didn't have much of an answer. Apparently the theme to doogie howser, md is very soothing to her, though!

How rock'n'roll I am: I was going to see some bands on Saturday night but I was too tired after going to my Nan's 90th birthday lunch...

(Still, I made it out on Friday, which was just as well as I was the only paying attendee for the first two bands of three. LOL at the random passers-by who only turned up for the last guy, however, as he turned out to be on some serious Suicide-ripoff outsider music tip, stopping and starting his minidisc of angry synth backing tracks mid-track to loud clunks over the PA, then intoning the same lyrics about YOU SMELL NICE over the top of each one. I think they stayed for about ten minutes. Hell, in theory I like that kind of thing, and I was wondering if I could take any more)

the cover to this thing says it is "provocative" and has some awful critics blurb saying its some extra debauched version of dangerous liasons. gotta love the marketing for foreign films, because they're not just regular films, they go in the section of the blockbuster labeled "foreign". blah. though i'd only feel weird about renting it in a snobby indie film store, b/c there i'd feel like i'd have to explain that i know stuff about the director & i'm not just looking for some costume drama pretentious thing that is "foreign"

there's a ton of online streaming stuff but it's very random. some big movies. lots of obscure stuff. lots of bad movies.

Starcraft 2 as substitute for meaningful human interaction, yaaay

Thinking about watching a movie or two to try and get rid of the horrible brainstink left by John Boorman's Film Of Exorcist II: The Heretic (as the title sequence would have it). HOW CAN A MOVIE SUCK THIS BADLY? I've known and loved the Morricone soundtrack for ages, and loved or at least liked the other Boorman movies I've seen (Deliverance, Point Blank [one of my alltime favorites] and Zardoz [the kind of hilarious overreaching failure I hoped Exorcist 2 would be]) but this was just absolute dogshit.

this is like the first non-boring saturday in a while for me. all my fun days are weekdays. usually i'm too exhausted from work to be fun but tonight was pretty alright. i was at this art show which was kinda fun but mostly blah, but then i got sauced on cheap pitchers of beer and danced with a drag queen, and all sorts of folks, and ok my girlfriend has to work early and went home, but hell with it i'll sleep the hell in and enjoy the day off.

Wiped way the fuck out on my bike. I was thinking of safety, ironically -- I looked down to turn my front light brighter, and missed a sharp curve. Ended up in the grass with some bruises and a little mild road rash, which was nice, because the object I was most trying to avoid was a concrete pole. That would have been quite nasty. Hooray for tightening up my front brake this morning. I'm so glad this was a boring Saturday night injury instead of an exciting Saturday night trip to the emergency room. The jogger that stopped and asked if I was OK was v nice -- I was just out of it enough to offer him a cigarette. He declined, and decided I was ok at that point. I said thanks to him again as I rode past him a few minutes later.

"you could be 40 in a college town."
Yeah this crossed my mind.

This is the short version of why I do not live in Austin, TX anymore. Look away for a second, and you're 40 years old smoking pot on someone else's back porch, and -- here's the real problem -- that doesn't strike you as odd at all.

― kenan, Sunday, 1 August 2010 06:15 (fifteen years ago)

well, the town where i live has a college ... and a lot of college students (or recent college grads). and i am 40 now. draw whatever conclusions you want.

― The Beatles are not pizza!!! (Eisbaer), Sunday, 1 August 2010 06:18 (fifteen years ago)

If it's not Austin, I can't say anything for sure. I was just in danger of becoming of of those Austin people who went to college there, maybe got a degree and maybe didn't, and just stayed to work on my healthy glowing tan for the rest of my life. I think Austin people know the type.

― kenan, Sunday, 1 August 2010 06:21 (fifteen years ago)

being old and stones in Austin...doesn't sound all that bad tbh. but then again i don't know 'the type'

― proud teabagger from rim country (arby's), Sunday, 1 August 2010 06:24 (fifteen years ago)

It sounds terrible to me! And I guess 'the type' is the type that'll go down with the ship just because they're too stoned to notice it's going down. I know I'm being unfair to Austin as a city, but 'the type' does persist there.

xp Great Scrabble word, too. I'm about halfway through Season 2 at the moment...just wrapped up the obligatory voodoo zombie episode. While I'd seen a few episodes in syndication, as well as the first movie back when it came out, I was under the impression that the show was all sci-fi, all the time, so I was kind of thrown when ghosts and demons and crap started showing up.

Tonight- gym, then back home...going to do one of the following, haven't decided:
1. work my way through the second Sub Rosa Anthology of Noise & Electronic Music
2. watch The Ninth Configuration
3. read...something. haven't thought that far ahead, really

I can tell you what I'm not going to do, though, and that is Final Fantasy XIII. Good god, but that game is dogshit. I got a copy for $20 in a one-day Amazon sale, and as of almost two hours in I have no idea what's going on, the combat is simultaneously oversimplified and full of pointless extra systems (all I've had to do is select "auto battle" and remember to heal my guys every five encounters or so), and the entire game so far seems to be set in an ugly greenish hallway. Okay, so it's a greenish bridge floating over your usual FF-style futuro-magic-techno-city, but it remains, functionally, a hallway. All the characters are vapid, annoying, complete ciphers, freakish anime simulacra of human beings straight from the uncanny valley, or various combinations of the above.

(oh who am i kidding i'm going to finish all fifty hours or whatever of this turd)

Thinking, was Tron some electronic version of "Wizard of Oz" ? I mean the more I think, the more I believe that Flynn was knocked unconscious by the laser and dreamed up the entire shebang of Tron. He used everyone from his life as templates for the hero characters. His ENCOM friends were the good guys with the blue circuits while the ENCOM boss and the new MCP was dreamed as the bad guy. All the vehicles probably came from the stuff he read about in sci-fi and science magazines. The world inside the computer was how he represented the computer systems as seen by someone on the inside.

Sorry to jump in, but in the spirit of the thread title, I am spending this fine Saturday night in with my parents, watching some godawful film. I've had a couple glasses of wine, so I can't drive anywhere, and we live in the middle of bloody nowhere.

Made me think of the Laphroaig entry here: http://www.cracked.com/blog/the-complete-lunatics-guide-to-5-best-sipping-whiskeys/

Hailing from the Scottish island of Islay, Laphroaig had its beginnings in small, illegal stills, like Scottish moonshine, but eventually grew to be a respected and esteemed establishment, like a Scottish Red Lobster.
Nose
A strong smokiness dominates Laphroaig, mercilessly grinding out any other softer, weaker notes.
Palate
Earthy and unpretentious but utterly dominant. Like it knows. Like it knows you've been bad.
The Argument You're Going To Get In
You're not going to get in any arguments, largely because of the ball-gag she put in your mouth about two hours ago. You met her downstairs, in the lobby bar of the Ramada Inn that your shitty office supply company put you up in for this two-day conference. You would've argued against the trip when you were younger, but these days you leap at any chance to get away from your ugly wife and hateful children. You got to talking to some pretty blonde over drinks, where you were utterly charmed by her sultry, forceful ways; she was presumably wooed by how much you know about printers.
Who You'll End Up Fighting
Oh, nobody! Nobody at all. You're handcuffed to this radiator so tight, you can barely move.
You'll just have to do whatever you're told. Whatever anybody tells you to do.
Who You're Going Home With
Shit, you might never go home again if this girl keeps working it like - is she going for your stuff? She is! Oh yeah, the belt. The belt, baby. Or...the wallet? You guess that's uh, that's pretty good too. It's leather, at any rate. If she rears up enough, maybe gets a running start, you could leave a pretty good mark with a wallet.
Finish
A peaty, mellow burn, which will go nicely with the burning shame you'll fell as you give your statement to the police the next morning, naked save for an emergency blanket and the perfectly knotted tie you had her Double Windsor around your junk before she made off with your clothes and petty cash.

Thanks! It was a good day, we had fun. But of course it's easy to make parenting sound sort of herculean. Mostly for me it's a matter of making sure nothing gets broken (bones, windows, promises, etc).

Was chipper and weirdly energetic earlier but now I'm in a bored slump.

Went to work, watched my client mumble to herself for five hours, surfed ILX and FB for an hour or two at the McDonald's near her house, went home, ignored the TV while playing Z+Angband and Ironband and some random casino games, decided I didn't feel like drinking anything, went to bed.

what kinda bluray player did u end up getting, gukbe?

― VegemiteGrrl, Saturday, 9 April 2011 23:46 (fifteen years ago)

bottom-of-the-line Panasonic. I'm not flush with money and I don't have a fancy a/v set-up, so it will be good enough. Now looking at the Complete Deadwood Blu-Ray Set on Amazon. I have a gift card that would knock out half the price. Also I'm going to be out of a job in three weeks and then I'm going on a pricey vacation. And medical bills are turning up. This was probably not a good idea overall.

My list to pick from right now: Aachi & Ssipak (batshit Korean anime), Cocksucker Blues (not sure the file is any good, or that I have the right codecs to watch it, but we'll see), Human Highway, Kaboom, and Tokyo Fist.

did you download them as a series of zip files? if so, you need to unzip them all at once -- they won't open individually.

Had an awesome time watching my neighbors partying too hard.

The scene: Baltimore, frat row, 2 am. I go out onto my second floor verandah to have a smoke. I look down and see one of my neighbors, shirtless and incredibly muscular and quite handsome, passed out next to a keg in his hammock, and the weight of his body slowly twists the hammock until his sleeping form is dumped facedown onto the concrete. Smack. Hard. He is stunned, barely conscious, but staggers to his feet. Tries to open his front door. Bangs on door to get attention. Nobody's home. He smashes the window of his own door, reaches through, and opens his front door. He pads up the stairs and out onto his verandah, which faces mine. I ask "are you okay dude?" and he mutters/mumbles "Ahhhmmm twennnnyone today. Sorry but I gotta puke" and then proceeds to shove his fingers down his throat so that he can vomit off the verandah onto our lawn. I tell him "watch out that you don't fall over that rail, it's pretty low". It really looks like he's going to fall off the building while trying to vomit. His friends arrive, walk out onto the verandah, don't notice me because they're looking at him, unzip and start to piss off the verandah, then see me and zip up and say, "Come on dude, you're going out" and proceed to escort his barely conscious but mobile body out the door and into the night, for more partying.

I love my neighbors!

it's all good to me that our neighbors are obnoxious, loud, destructive etc. because we practice till all hours in our basement

we moved here because we knew it would be so noisy that no one would complain about our band

i'm working tomorrow at 10am so wasn't envisaging anything exciting, but i've ended up sitting round my parents' house with nothing to watch or read, and without any inspiration to go on a little youtube binge or anything, just reading stuff on the internet, which is a way to kill an hour or two, but not a whole night. boring.

Took the kids to the pool today . Beeps wouldn't stop screaming HELP! HELP! before matter-of-factly saying, "I'm going over to the jump board [the diving board], brb. Ran over there to supervise at least, a four-year old girl planning on jumping from four feet in the air while not want to get her hair wet. She backed down and then jumped in from the edge.

Little Man, Henry, well, he just looped his arms through one of Beeps' old Barbie intertubes and floated around. There had to have been six inches on either side of his torso within the doughnut hole, but he just kept his arms looped and actually fell asleep at one point. Most laid back 20 month old I've ever seen in five feet of water.

We got them home, they took naps, and then it was off to a friend's backyard party. Beeps went into another room to watch TV while Henry allowed himself to be picked up by strangers and pushed in a swing.

Now it's nearly 10 pm CDT and they're still up. I'm hoping for a long sleep-in tomorrow morning.

I live way too far out of town for the lack of public transport I'm faced with. Overspent heavily throughout the week cos I was finally this close to a town/civilisation. Been living on a protest camp where I'm not supposed to drink on a Saturday night when other people are.

Silly really, I should have gone out last night. I bet there was something to do. Could have got wrecked, danced for hours. Met somebody interesting and not been stuck with having to get out to the outskirts of town. Instead stayed in had the tv on and can't remember what I watched. Need to go dancing every now & then so should have. Great tension release methinks, maybe tonight though. The Art Festival parade is on and I might just bump into the right person. Ever optimistic me.

Packed all day. Made what might be the single most adult/yuppie furniture purchase of my life today, in which I actually went to a Design Within Reach showroom and paid for four dining chairs. They were on sale $94 each, which is almost higher-end ikea territory, but still by far the most I've paid for chairs in my life. Not to mention just the weird feeling of going to a Design Within Reach showroom and actually making a purchase.

ha, yes. kg and i had the fortune for these to fall in our laps as soon as we identified the need; she was able to score a nice roche bobois sofa in good shape from a generous friend/neighbor, and our table and chairs...well those are just a card table folding chairs her parents wanted to get rid of. this works.

late to the party but my saturday night included going on a bike ride with my dad + bf, watching airplanes take off/land, riding back, going to dinner where i ate delicious wood oven pizza and ordered a beer because it was called "fade to black" and there were 180 beers to choose from. bonus: it was awesome, like drinking manhattan special + alcohol, and the label is sweet:

I live in a quadplex in maryland, and Irene just knocked out our electricial power. It's 4am and my flatmates are all asleep. It's pitch black. I'm bored. I'm lonely.

A really cute girl just moved in upstairs last week. She's really bored & lonely too.

We're both looking for something we can do in complete darkness when nobody else is around. Any ideas?

nah, creativity and imagination were never my strong suits .... especially when I'm tired as 'ell & haven't showered in 2 days 'cause the water's cold and am sweating profusely 'cause no air conditioning or even fans. Just woke up an hour ago, disoriented. Power just restored a few hours ago. Alot of my frozen food didn't survive. Now finishing my laundry which was half-washed when the power went out, which includes all my pillowcases.

― Lee547 (Lee626), Sunday, 28 August 2011 20:36 (fourteen years ago)

right on; glad to see youre safe

were you actually ever in the same room with this cute girl or not?

― FOXBS NEWS (Drugs A. Money), Monday, 29 August 2011 00:49 (fourteen years ago)

yes I was in her room. I get all self-conscious when I know I reek from lack of personal hygiene so we talked a bit, I went downstairs to my place to shower and brush my teeth (by candlelight) and by the time I was clean and dry she was asleep too. Went upstairs again earlier today, still with the power out, she had some girlfriends over, talked some more. My saturday night was more frustrating than boring. Phone and internet service still flaky now even with power restored.

― Lee547 (Lee626), Monday, 29 August 2011 05:49 (fourteen years ago)

Asking myself the same thing. It's disinterest, not shyness. I actually planned a boring alone night to catch up on chores and such. I'm just so depleted from the storms and power outages, replenishing the refrigerated food supply that was lost, and trying to clean up the resulting mess.

A few years ago it would've been me pulling not her.

yeah, I don't get it myself, either.

earlier this summer I was just pining for adventure (I should bump that thread for new last-minute ideas).

now, some combination of ennui, exhaustion, disappointment, and heartbreak has shut down any interest in anything. even, unfathomably, cute girls

i took the bins out, there were a lot of them. on the way back up on the lift this cute eastern european girl i have a crush on was there again. we smiled at each other. i will never plucked up the courage to speak to her, and really i don't know if girls want to be get hit on in the lift of their buildings.

It really was. It's great being able to look back at what I wrote earlier in the day here, having no idea at the time what the night had in store....

Actually wasn't going well at first, couldn't get a conversation rolling for the first 2 hours but then things started to fall into place. Five years ago I would have written this off as a B-minus first date, but I've grown to appreciate the sort of informality she has, the way she didn't care that I
wasn't dressed the part and neither was she, and we had no real plans and just wanted to improvise, but improvise together. It wasn't exciting but was still very pleasant.

When I got home my neighbours & some friends were downing some beers on the front lawn and asked me where I'd been. When I gave them a recap, the girls were like awww about four times in one minute. It was then I realized I actually had a pretty awesome night.

Maybe again next weekend. But I'm so not ready to be half of a couple right now....

Since Thursday night, when I ate dinner and before I went to the ER, I have eaten the following:

Three Popsicles
Two cups of broth
A serving of mashed potatoes
A serving a plain yogurt
Water
Grape juice

That's pretty much all I'm allowed to have, along with other no-fiber, bland foods, until this is under control. From the time I arrived in the ER Thursday night until I went home Friday morning at 5am, they had to dose me with morphine three times.

― """""""""""""stalin""""""""""" (difficult listening hour), Sunday, 14 July 2013 03:25 (twelve years ago)

i like the prisoner of azkaban too. although i disagree with jk rowling's decision to introduce time travel into the harry potter universe because once time travel is introduced it throws everything else into question. why not use that shit all the time? and if it is "too dangerous" to do that, why allow hermione to use it just to take a 5th class?

I love P of Az the movie because Cuaron makes Hogwart's a real place that exists in nature; it's so beautiful and the dementors were so terrible, strikes such a good balance imo

my favorite book is either Azkaban or Order of the Phoenix. I love the Sirius storyline so much.

xxp regarding the guitar palns. yeah. i'm trying to work out a few models of acoustic guitars. i have a 12 fret OM type thing worked out, was working on a 14 fret version of the same, as well as a jumbo model. as of now bracing and neck joint and some other features based on research and designs by an australian luthier/engineer trevor gore. will probably work out some stuff of my own as i absorb more of the science but as of now i plan on experimenting with his and a few other contemporary designs out there.

yeah I was kind of amazed at how much nu-Turtles had changed everything around.

I'm halfway tempted to use this thread to liveblog me falling in love with Jennifer Herrema. Right now, I am checking out her star chart.

― Drugs A. Money, Sunday, 28 July 2013 05:34 (twelve years ago)

In 1997–1998, the Turtles starred in a live-action television series called Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation that directly follows the events of the first three movies. A fifth turtle was introduced, a female named "Venus de Milo" who was skilled in the mystical arts of the shinobi.[13] The series was a loose continuation of the movie franchise, as Shredder had been defeated and the Ninja Turtles encountered new villains. Other connections to the feature films include the fact that Splinter's ear was cut, the Foot Soldiers were humans, and the Turtles lived in the abandoned subway station seen in the second and third movies. The Next Mutation Turtles made a guest appearance on Power Rangers in Space

anyways,

right now: Royal Trux's Sweet Sixteen. Probably about the crack open some early 90s issues of Alpha Flight in .cbr form. Maybe buy a couple books on Barnes and Noble's website.

later: listening to the Clipping album on their bandcamp (ILM thread here: Clipping - Midcity (noise rap)) while working on some novel outlines

even later: just starting Dostoyevsky's The Devils (Magarshack translation), looking forward to digging in deeper to that...

― Drugs A. Money, Sunday, 28 July 2013 06:13 (twelve years ago)

what other dostoevsky have you read?

― fervently nice (Treeship), Sunday, 28 July 2013 06:17 (twelve years ago)

I've read all four big ones (disclosure: I quit on The Idiot about a hundred pages from the end). Before I had read the P/V Demons translation. I opted for Magarshack this time bcz I had read his translation of C+P and basically thought it was the best novel I had ever read, and then read some of the P/V translation and wasn't sure I would've come to the same conclusion had I encountered that one first.

Anyways, I have been planning to re-read it ever since difficult listening hour posted a bunch about it some months ago. I was worried that DM might not do justice to its bonkers humor and jagged intensity but I'm only a few pages in and the disorienting satirical tone is still very bracing...

― Drugs A. Money, Sunday, 28 July 2013 06:28 (twelve years ago)

i've never read magarshack but i'll keep him in mind as a translator to check out. i just finished the donald rayfield translation of gogol's "dead souls" and it was okay... but i think i like pevear and volohonksy's rendering of gogol's "voice" in the short stories. maybe i should just stick with them because many of my all-time favorite reading experiences have been their translations of dostoevsky, chekhov, and gogol. their version of notes from underground is much better than whichever one was included in the norton annotated edition.

― fervently nice (Treeship), Sunday, 28 July 2013 06:41 (twelve years ago)

Didn't P?V re-translate the title for NftU? into something like a Notes from a Dank Cellar or something?

yeah dude I think if P/V are working for you, then keep with them. I had a book of Chekhov's short stories that they translated which were excellent.

― Drugs A. Money, Sunday, 28 July 2013 07:03 (twelve years ago)

it's just called "Notes from Underground" i think, not "the Underground." the chekhov stories they translated are indeed awesome.

― fervently nice (Treeship), Sunday, 28 July 2013 07:09 (twelve years ago)

i tried to order their translation of anna karenina but amazon sent me louise and aylmer maude instead. i think i might try that one.

Went to The Getty Center in Brentwood around 6pm. It was quite nice.

I can't party like I used to. maybe it was cuz I showed up early to help the host get a keg, but like 4 hours in, all the beer/jello shots made me sleepy and they let me 'nap' on one of their guest beds. by 9:30, it was a night. oi. :/

PLUS....now, with my worsening reflux issues, the beer gave me some of the worst heartburn I've had in my life.

Had a fairly eventful Saturday night as far as these things go for me.

Mixed up a so-so Pimm's Cup and then cleaned up my music workstation. Once it was clean, I kicked back and listened to some Spotify and watched some SCGLive.

Next up the whole family listened to some of The Amber Spyglass audiobook and had pre-dinner apps of delice cheese and salami.

For dinner we had amazing rainbow trout in a butter sauce, potatoes, and cherry tomatoes.

Once my son was in bed, we watched Dredd and then episodes of Peep Show on Netflix.

Finally, my wife hunted down some drink recipes that would use up some of our excess bar supplies. I made her an Atlanta Belle and made myself a Dixie (apparently drinks that include bourbon and creme de menthe all have southern names). That quickly led to me plunging into dark unconsciousness.

Went to the Mt Wilson Observatory, saw a few things through the 60" telescope. Saw Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, the entire Sombrero galaxy (M104), a globular cluster (M3), and the Cat's Eye nebula.

Only Saturn seemed like it would turn out on my point-and-shoot, so it's the only one I attempted (held right up to the eyepiece). It looked much more distinct in person, I could see streaks on its surface and a black band separating the sections of the rings. Seeing Sombrero was the most impressive - an entire galaxy in the view of my puny eye.

"am rewatching deadwood s1"

I recently rewatched S3 and enjoyed it a lot more than the first viewing during which I missed the odd ep and was a bit meh. The maverick villain George Hearst character is so despicably brilliant, he runs roughshod over Al + Cy and when he sends his henchman for a fight to the death with Dan in probably the most brutal fight scene ever. Oh and Cox constantly hamming is just beautiful. It is a dreadful business that this got bumped when it was showing no lag and still full of potential.

― xelab, Sunday, 8 June 2014 21:11 (twelve years ago)

Hearst is a fascinating villain to me, so full of contradictions & violence

There's some great (and sometimes tremendous) footage/insights in some of the installments of Mr. Burns' Jazz. But (spoiler alert) significant portions of Episode 10 are revisionist history and/or outright lies.

Have already found some odd moments in KB Jazz, ie minstrelsy was handled v strangely

Marsalis seemed like a weird choice since most of what he says seems to be made up on the fly, like it sounds pretty but huh?

Dont have much on early jazz bios though, so the profiles are kinda interesting to me

Get the feeling this will handle late period jazz in the same pathetic way he handled modern baseball "yadda yadda it's not as pure now anyway APPLE PIE U GUYS"

Ken Burns vs. Wynton Marsalis -- which is the most hated among free jazz/EFI ppl?

Ha, well, Burns basically deferred to Marsalis and Stanley Crouch (who, pre-neo-con, was actually a pretty good drummer in the new music, cf. the Wildflowers series on Casablanca). Crouch has many more insights than Marsalis in the series -- it seems like Wynton is trying/failing to pontificate in a similar manner -- but they were both consultants, and both apparently chose to lionize Dexter Gordon for only finding a following in Europe while simultaneously ridiculing the Art Ensemble Of Chicago for only finding a following in Europe.

Also, according to Wynton, Miles went electric after recording and releasing two albums with electric piano (one of which had electric bass). Now we know.

one year passes...

For the love of god...what does it say about me that I'm spending my Saturday night not only watching old movies in the company of old Capitolfest boys and girls, but logging my reactions for cinephiles who couldn't be there? I desperately need to get laid.
