no, I don't.

Well, if you're talking about those times I called you from the Waffle House fearing death from the patrons and waitresses, I HAD to drop my voice.

Imago said:

omg, your waffle hosue calls are frickin hiLARious.

You DO drop your volume a bit, but then you make a joke. You can't stay serious for long. I think it has something to do with thinking you're all complex.

Imago said:

It does a bit. Not super high, but higher than normal. Plus you get a little ghetto when you get fierce. All sassy and shit.

CarrieMpls said:

Oh my God, I just remembered that time I went to the Vegan Restaurant in Tampa. I did so a week after the secret Minneapolis invasion that you didn't invite pardonme4livin to and stuff.

I thought, "Well, if those kids up north can do it, I can at least try it".

Only to spend like 2 hours talking to Scientologists and hippies and wondering what my life had amounted to

I remember the minute I got in my car and left the restaurant I had two thoughts on my mind #1) Get to a Burger King and eat meat to redeem myself and #2) Call Carrie and let her know some of the pain I was going through !!!!

Ghetto


Dude, I'm street



You have a lovely falsetto by the way

Imago said:

Are you teaching me street lingo? Dude, you've seen my cartoon.

And thank you. I'm not sure I can sing any other way but falsetto. I do an awesome 'Under The Boardwalk' and a very passable 'More Than Words'. I hope one day to drag your ass to karaoke and hear you sing something.

Ah okay, then of course delightful fun even though I mostly don't get it. But I know what ota means at least .

Serious said:

It's OK. I think only we understand each other and maybe fauxie sometimes

Alej said:

I used to crack the fuck up when you would join a serious thread.

It didn't matter if it was you, protoge, or Mylie who posted first, the rest of you were sure to follow, and then the thread would get ass-raped hard.

I mean, the thread could have been about religious pottery or some shit, and you'd totally destroy it


It was a nice refreshing vibe brought during a period of time there was alot of drama, some of it of my own doing I admit.

Imago said:

lawd. Those days were amessing. That was the must fun I ever had on the org

it's a shame the moderators (-s) didn't appreciate our humour <3

Alej said:

Is about right. I don't understand all of the vocab but I share the witches spirit for absurdity and fail. I possess a similar malformed brain and desire to disrupt.

Imago said:

1. Have you ever gotten into a heated debate/argument over a musician or musical group IN REAL LIFE? Do tell ?

Certain peeps are incapable of understanding that I appreciate and have a love of all music, especially metal and they give me shit because of it. I make sure they know how disrespectful and ignorant they're being towards me especially considering they have never listened to anything but R & B.

2. How much time in a day or week do you spend listening to music? How much of it is new and how much of it is stuff you've owned a while ?

Music is life so there is always some going on, new and old.

3. Do you like to share your love a band or do you prefer to be unique in your group of friends? ?

Unique.

4. Which orger(s) (if you know) would you say have similar musical tastes to yours ?

Natisse.

Depends on the subject matter.

Too many to mention.

7. (POPULARITY QUESTION): Which orgers say things which you tend to find very insightful ?

There's a handful of them, they know who they are.

8. Are there any objects in your house that remind you of bad times ?

Nope I left the past behind and had a huge bonfire.

9. What songs remind you of really good times ?

Too many to mention but I can say maybe 1 or 2 are from Prince.

10. Which orgers that you've met surprised you the most? If you haven't met any, which ones surprised you on threads/in chat/other communications ?

No one really but if the question reflected the ignorance and bullying, I could supply an entire list. Some peeps just don't get it!

11. When you don't post, do you generally lurk or just have other things to do besides orging ?

I don't lurk I'm busy living my life.

12. Where/what were you doing the day MJ died ?

I was having an all nighter writing up business proposals when the breaking news started to air.

13. Has it ever snowed in April where you live ?

Hell no this is Oz.

14. Other than the city in which you live, what is your favorite city and why ?

New York is fun (once u get past the smell), London is cool, Sydney is amazing, Bridgetown is home, Athens is fabulous!

15. The Witches of ORGwick - Scurge of the org or delightful fun or what the hell are you talking about, Dan ?

Salem? Burn baby burn?

16. What is the hardest that you've laughed recently? ?

My boo has me bursting into laughter constantly. He's amazing.

17. What is the most thoughtful gift someone has given you recently ?

Love and laughter (and free tickets to see Dr.Phil live on stage at the arena)

18. How did you arrive at your religious beliefs (whether you're a believer or not) ?

Life happens and the truth shines on through.

fucktard

endymion said:

Hey, your last picture is really cute!

We should have some beers at the triangle sometime.

Imago said:

That is sooo weird that you know places in Bournemouth

Next time you come to dear old England beers/flasetto prince karaoke/various dubious behaviour is a must

endymion said:

God, why does everybody like Karaoke?

Oh and Bournemouth is lovely.
I've been trying to get a job at one of the companies there for over a year. It's very tough to immigrate to the UK if you're over 30.

I've had some great times in Bournemouth too
...and I went there last year to see the Wiggles

Imago said:

I think there is a direct relationship between beer intake and karaoke

lets just stick to dubious behaviour, I would invite mdiver along but when he becomes a dad chances are he wont be allowed out anymore

florescent said:

There is a strip club in Bournemouth called Wiggles, having just googled 'The Wiggles' I can see you meant something different

So where are you in England Flo

endymion said:

Oh My gah
He told me you Englishmen just bring the babies to the pub with you.

Yes, mdiver and I have already tried working the post-fatherdom logistics of having beers with mates.

Imago said:

I can confirm that it is possible

In fact if you don't make it a semi regular thing insanity is a possibility (sorry mrsdiver)

endymion said:

I was talking about the strip club...
Not really.

I'm in Ipswich. Not quite as sunny or sea-sidey as Bournemouth.... it's nice enough though.

Fauxie said:

you're amessing.

Imago said:

Or if you're young with a degree in a field that isn't hiring and have no other skills.

this month's questionnaire is once again lacking questions about icelandic boys

1. Have you ever gotten into a heated debate/argument over a musician or musical group IN REAL LIFE? Do tell ? I once earned a detention in high school English class for quipping that MJ "sucks," has only a sliver of the talent that Prince has and does nothing in his videos but "grab his (female genitalia)."

2. How much time in a day or week do you spend listening to music? How much of it is new and how much of it is stuff you've owned a while ? Maybe 4-5 hours/week. About 95% of it is stuff I've owned for more than a year

3. Do you like to share your love a band or do you prefer to be unique in your group of friends? ? I'd be happy to share, but my friends would have zero interest in about 80% of what I listen to.


7. (POPULARITY QUESTION): Which orgers say things which you tend to find very insightful ? Too many to list.

8. Are there any objects in your house that remind you of bad times ? I tend to get rid of stuff like that. But there are a few pieces of furniture my wife likes that remind me of difficult times.

9. What songs remind you of really good times ? Wow... Just about any Top 40 song released from '90-'92. Many of them sucked, but the times were good.

10. Which orgers that you've met surprised you the most? If you haven't met any, which ones surprised you on threads/in chat/other communications ? I've only met Ariel. He's quite the sweetheart when for some reason I thought he'd be some biker badass.

11. When you don't post, do you generally lurk or just have other things to do besides orging ? I usually post when I'm here, so if I'm not posting, I'm almost certainly not on the org.

12. Where/what were you doing the day MJ died ? My family and I were browsing through an electronics store in Midtown Toronto when a breaking report of ambulances being called to MJ's house -- and early rumors of his death -- came on the radio. We thought, "wow," but we really started to worry when we were strolling home and radio stations in every passing car were bumping MJ tunes. It started to rain heavily, so we stood under a tree. While there, a friend called my wife's cell phone to confirm news reports that he had, indeed, died. It was surreal.


13. Has it ever snowed in April where you live ? Big time.

14. Other than the city in which you live, what is your favorite city and why ? Paris. Culture, history, beauty, proximity to so many other incredible places, a national healthcare system. I wish there were greater successes around battling xenophobia right now, but it's otherwise a place where I feel inspired and could see myself settling in for a time.

15. The Witches of ORGwick - Scurge of the org or delightful fun…or what the hell are you talking about, Dan ?

16. What is the hardest that you've laughed recently? ? Today. I had a random idea for a movie treatment. I won't get into it, but it would be bad... like Joe Esterhaus bad.

17. What is the most thoughtful gift someone has given you recently ? Grace on long overdue work... but I'm afraid Im blowing it.

18. How did you arrive at your religious beliefs (whether you're a believer or not) ? The foundation came from being born and raised in the Church. The personal nuances of my faith are shaped with ongoing study, prayer and experience.

1. Have you ever gotten into a heated debate/argument over a musician or musical group IN REAL LIFE? Do tell ?
Hahahaha, got into an argument with some drunken people at a concert, crazy girl peed on us.Never again will I talk to people around that listen in on our conversation.

2. How much time in a day or week do you spend listening to music? How much of it is new and how much of it is stuff you've owned a while ? 5 or 6 hours a day. Most is new (very new), but thre's always old favorites too.

3. Do you like to share your love a band or do you prefer to be unique in your group of friends? ? I love to share, but my friends usually are the ones to have the new things first.
4. Which orger(s) (if you know) would you say have similar musical tastes to yours ?
Well, Emile for one
5. Which orger's threads do you tend to migrate to, by choice or despite your best intentions? ?

What? Who?
16. What is the hardest that you've laughed recently? ?
Someone gave me a huge present that turned out to be a lot of stinky socks Such a romantic guy
17. What is the most thoughtful gift someone has given you recently ?
My brother gave me my Mom's watch at her funeral a couple weeks ago.
Oh and this wasn't for me but I was just overwhelmed when another dear friend had prayers said in Rome for my Mom. His love and concern really left me speechless.
18. How did you arrive at your religious beliefs (whether you're a believer or not) ?
It has been a wonderful, long journey and I am happy to be where I am now on the path.
