How much influence do you really have?

By posting on a message board like this, anyone (theoretically even important people or celebrities - ie. Erik Torkells) could be following our daily lives, thoughts, opinions, fantasies, sorrows and joys etc.

So, I've been going on and on about my marriage and how I'm 5th on my husband's list of priorities and how I love robots, how do I know this song wasn't actually written about me. I mean those Norwegian guys could have been reading my threads right? hmmm

I personally like to imagine this song IS about ME razz sigh

The Girl And The Robot lyrics

I go mental every time you leave for work
You never seem to know when to stop
I never know when you'll return
I'm in love with a robot

In the night, call you up and
Wanna know when you're coming home
Don't deny me, call me back
I'm so alone

In the night, wait up for you
Even though you don't want me to
Go to bed, leave the lights on
What's the use

So you want to understand me
You just see what you want to see
There's no way I can help you out
You don't know what it's all about

Fell asleep again in front of MTV
God, I'm down at the bottom
No one's singing songs for me
I can't wait for tomorrow

When you're gone and rain starts falling
I just sit here by the phone
Don't deny me, call me back
I'm so alone

Oh, when you gonna come home?
Oooooh I just gotta know
When you gonna come home?
Oh

Baby I can't stand it when you go to work
You never seem to know when to stop
I never know when you'll return
I'm in love with a robot

In the night, call you up and
Wanna know when you're coming home
Don't deny me, call me back
I'm so alone

Oddly enough I had a dream somewhat like this a few weeks ago. There's this movie coming out that kind of reminds me of this old website I did, and in the dream that was actually the case and I was really pissed off that I wasn't getting any of that money.

Also, hi Charlotte!

I don't know that anything I have ever said or done is songworthy. I have 0 influence.

I guess I've been posting in the Prince sections a bit. I mean, someone has to.

And yeah, I guess I'm like, over halfway to 30 now? Crazy. I remember I was 19 when I first signed up for this site, and it still seems kind of new to me. Time just goes faster and faster.

I like Robyn's Fembot too:

I've got some news for you
Fembots (fembots) have feelings too
You split my heart in two
Now what you gonna do

(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)
(I'm hi-tech baby)

Fresh out the box the latest model
Generator running on full throttle
can I get a fuel up? hit the bottle
(reboot)
I got a lotta automatic booty applications
Got a C.P.U maxed out sensation
Looking for a joy to man my station
(reboot)
r-r-rock the nation
(rock it, baby)

I've got some news for you
Fembot have feelings too
You split my heart in two
Now what ya gonna do
(and scan me)

My system's in mint condition
The power's up on my transistors
Working fine, no glitches
Plug me in and flip some switches
Pull up in docking position
Pop the hatch and hit ignition
B-b-burn out, baby
Ready for demolition


My superbrains are binary
Circuitry and mainframe tens-filled here
I'm sipping propane topped with a cherry
(reboot)
In fact i'm a very scientifically advanced hot mama
Artificially discreet no drama
Digitally chic titanium mama
(reboot)
Ring the alarm-a

I've got some news for you (uh uh)
Fembots have feelings too (you know)
you split my heart in two
Now what you gonna do
(here we go)

My system's in mint condition
The power's up on my transistors
Working fine, no glitches
Plug me in and flip some switches
Pull up in docking position
Pop the hatch and hit ignition
b-b-burn out, baby
Ready for demolition

(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)
(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)
(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)
(Once you gone tech you ain't never goin back)

Once you gone tech you never ever goin back
You gotta enter access code upon the back of ma neck
Initiating slut mode of space cadets and dexters
A calculator in my pocket, got you all in check

My system's in mint condition
The power's up on my transistors
Working fine, no glitches
Plug me in and flip some switches
Pull up in docking position
Pop the hatch and hit ignition
b-b-burn out, baby
Ready for demolition

My system's in mint condition
The power's up on my transistors

(I sing DROID in this part hmmm )

I do have a camera or two at my disposal, yes. Nothing of, you know, good quality like yours but they do what they need to.

Do you still do photography, on a similar subject?

My attempts at photoshop have been pitiful to say the least.

But I thought this was about influencing someone so much that they create something in your honour.

oh, i've got imagination. anybody who's married has imagination. smile

in this case i think unimpressive means 'not hot', which is of course all that matters.

exactly, pickles is trying to influence us all

so, isn't there a song or a movie or book that when you hear/see/read it you go "oh my god!!!!" because of how uncannily like your own life it is?
