Hey you guys....you know i can never resist the urge to create a new topic at some stage.

This is for all you who enjoy conversing about insidious rubbish as much as i do.

Feel free to pitch advertising campaigns for things that wouldn't usually sell, talk about your deepest, darkest secrets and the things that make you happy. Or, you could just talk about your day, the people who piss you off and the people you cherish.

Is space big?


It appears that way.

Marie said you're a prostitute.

By R~S~P on Wednesday, January 24, 2001 - 12:06 am:

Space is tiny. It's just a place to be big in. You could get all of space in a shoebox. You'd still just have a shoebox, albeit a very empty one. That's that done, so what's next....?


If God can do anything, can he create a rock so big that he can't lift it?

By Sam on Wednesday, January 24, 2001 - 12:17 am:

I'm not too sure on the whole God buisiness, Chris.....but if he can make men decide to be wife bashing assholes than i'm sure he can do anything...i say make men decide to be because God gave us free will right? and we do what we do coz of that.

otherwise.....you're right about space tho....there is space everywhere...not just out there beyond this fine planet.

no, i am not a prostitute Bree. That unpresidented comment came from someone who doesn't know me....and i don't know her.

By R~S~P on Wednesday, January 24, 2001 - 12:38 am:

You're meant to follow up with another question. I'll do it. Why did the otter cross the road?

By Sam on Saturday, January 27, 2001 - 11:31 am:

what would happen to humanity if ants rulled the earth?

just a thought

By R~S~P on Wednesday, February 7, 2001 - 12:05 pm:

I dunno, they mightmake us spell 'ruled' with a double 'l'...

How's the flu, m'dear?

By Sammie on Thursday, February 8, 2001 - 01:50 pm:

flu is in cjech.......hahahahahahahaha i DO mean check that was a rather bad typo wasn't it?

anyhoo, i think that the ants would make us do weird little things like that: spell ruled *rulled* and the words "extermination", "insect repellent" and "surface sparay" would be confiscated from the language. i think also, we would be made wear silly little antennae on our heads and go hunting for sugar cubes.

and what of carpet mites?
i do wonder about them....what is their home life like?

By someone on Thursday, February 8, 2001 - 06:40 pm:

I've never heard of surface sparay. Or any type of sparay, for that matter.

By ann on Friday, February 9, 2001 - 12:10 am:

carpet mites have it pretty soft under foot, i've heard

By Sammie on Friday, February 9, 2001 - 11:41 am:

if i wanna say sparay, then i will :oP fpvvvvvvrrrrrrrr!!!!

and i agree ann, soft underfoot indeed

By R~S~P on Friday, February 9, 2001 - 04:57 pm:

Take this as being a public apology: Sorry Sammie, I'm shit. At everything. Sorry.

By Sammie on Monday, February 12, 2001 - 12:51 pm:

THIS IS A PUBLIC ACCEPTANCE OF THE APOLOGY ISSUED BY ONE R~S~P TO ONE SAMMIE.

chris...you are not shit. i accept your apology. i don't believe i was ever mad at *you*. i was mad at myself and others...never at you.

By matt on Tuesday, February 13, 2001 - 09:17 am:

By Sammie on Tuesday, February 13, 2001 - 11:28 am:

By matt on Wednesday, February 14, 2001 - 10:51 am:

sam, i love you

By Eddy on Wednesday, February 14, 2001 - 12:23 pm:

For fucks sake Ann, cheer up and stop being so down about yourself, every post you put on here is about how shit you are, coming from your mouth. Say something nice about yourself for once, and stop being so fucking dull.

By Butter~Girl on Thursday, February 15, 2001 - 11:40 am:

I actually have to agree with Eddy there, though I might not have put it in such an Eddy~esqué tone.
The problem with incessently putting yourself down all the time is that after a while it just sounds like you're fishing for compliments and re~assurance in a very vain, self~absorbed way. Worse, if you KEEP talking about it, and nobody actually DOES stop to remind you that the gloating voice in your head repeating, "You are a piece of shit" is just your own delusion, you might come to believe it even more rampantly. Plus, you'll start petulantly saying to your friends, "Oh, so you DO think I'm a piece of shit?" when they don't contradict your own relentlessly self~deprecating strictures & subsequently you'll bore the bollocks out of them. Before long, you're turning to ALL SORTS OF CRAZY VICES ~ and they're the WORST sort! ~ AND LET'S FACE IT, WE CAN'T HAVE THAT, NOW, can we?!

By BakeSale on Thursday, February 15, 2001 - 02:15 pm:

A good point actually. Isn't perpetual self depreciation really just a veiled way of fishing for compliments ?

By indigo on Thursday, February 15, 2001 - 07:14 pm:

arent the most annoying, smash their face in, whiney people the ones that hold up a piece of their work (especially art) and go "oh, its so bad, i dont know how yours turned out so much better than mine, im just incapable of doing anything right" etc etc. until all their dumb friends crowd round and go, oh no, thats wonderful, dont put yourself down etc etc.

well it pisses me off anyway.

By Sammie on Friday, February 16, 2001 - 01:14 pm:

charisma and magnetism huh?
don't know if i've ever met them, tho i hear they're good company. :o)

Matt: thankyou for loving me. tho i don't ever recall meeting you previously. i am flattered none the less.

i intended this topic to be a fun-filled adventure of silliness designed to make people laugh. it has now become depressing. can we please just stop all this self-loathing, and all this advice column stuff and get back to being silly?

i thankyou :o)

By flairwailer on Friday, February 16, 2001 - 01:24 pm:

Get back to being silly?
Oh yes, the ACO was great, especially the part when he is out doing all the menace..
and how do you remember everything so clearly without the book?

By R~S~P on Friday, February 16, 2001 - 08:01 pm:

Matt, I have already laid claim to Sammie and all her antipodean chums. I'll fight you for them.

By nathallie on Friday, February 16, 2001 - 09:20 pm:

ha ha, butter girl, a few years back my friend kept sobbing about how fat and gross and unattractive she was, so one day, when she was doing so with a whole group of our friends (the girls were all trying to console her), i got so sick and said "look, anna, the only reason why you think you're so fat is because martin said so. only reason. so shut up about it and move on". and then she burst into tears and everyone yelled at me. (martin being the guy she was in lust with for a couple of years, but him being an asshole and all and putting her down).
long story shorter...
it was all okay in the end. for a few months after that, 'cos martin would say to me that now she blames her self-esteem issues on him. it was hilarious.

sigh. oh well, have a great day all!
love, nat.

By Sammie on Saturday, February 17, 2001 - 04:18 am:

i'm very glad you enjoyed ACO, rachel....personally, i have no idea how i remembered so much about the book either but it must have had some sort of affect on me.

appy polly loggies to matt (apologies, that is) i cannot return the affection you bestow upon me. R~S~P has outlined as to why. will there be a battle as in days of yore? if there will be, i shall be eager to witness it. :o)but there will only be one winner, and he knows who he is. ;o)

By matt on Saturday, February 17, 2001 - 08:49 am:

erm.. matt is me and a lot of others. i represent the majority and you mr. RSP? Who do you wish to take?

By Sammie on Sunday, February 18, 2001 - 12:10 pm:

who does he wish to take?
what do you mean by that matt?


*puts on a pointed hat with long flowing scarves attached to it* oh, how loverly. fighting for my honour.

By matt on Monday, February 19, 2001 - 09:58 am:

which one of the antipodean chums I meant.
Sorry for not being clearer
Love you Sam

By Sammie on Monday, February 19, 2001 - 12:02 pm:

that's great matt....but you're going to have to stop with the expressions of affection....it's starting to creep me out

By matt on Tuesday, February 20, 2001 - 08:10 am:

sorry darling
