― temporary enrique (temporary enrique), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 13:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Flashes at you?

― maunders (maunders), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 13:41 (seventeen years ago) link

No, Matt!

(has anyone else noticed, though, that the Guardian seems to run the *same* "working in a restaurant on Feb 14th is horrible" article every year?)

I am taking my beloved to a performance of happy hardcore tunes played on a church organ. I would be doing this even if today was not Valentine's Day, as I am a big bundle o' romantic love all year round.

I don't doubt the all year round bit but an organ recital of happy hardcore? Where?! I can only imagine you screaming "CAN YOU FEEL IT" at the top of your lungs whenever possible!

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 15:16 (seventeen years ago) link

thx!

If you went along, Kev, you would not have to imagine it.

The evening would only be complete if the Vicar was to wear a dress shirt, white tie and tails, but then take his tailcoat off to reveal that he was wearing only the starched front of the dress shirt, and could make big box little box very effectively with his dress gloves.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 15:19 (seventeen years ago) link

BIG BOX LITTLE BOX! Has someone been talking to Aussie David? Or is this a running "happy raver" joke that everyone but the Americans already knows?

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 15:20 (seventeen years ago) link

Not a chance in hell of me going! Have a quiet night in planned.

That get up would seriously bring da voibe! He'd need Rener in the background making 'woo woo' noises and a big neon dummy thing as well. GLOWSTIX ALL ROUND!!!

Laurel, have you ever heard of the "Supermarket shop" dance?

― kv_nol (kv_nol), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 15:21 (seventeen years ago) link

it's on in Christchurch. At 8.00pm. It is free. You do not need a ticket.

This morning I opened the door for a flower delivery for my roommate. The guy delivering them looked kind of excited to be surprising someone, and may have been disappointed that the wrong person answered and the right person had already left for the lab. (They're gorgeous flowers, though, big lilies. Her boyfriend has good taste.)

― Maria e (Maria), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 15:44 (seventeen years ago) link

Supermarket Shop, no. David taught us the following:

1. Big box/little box
2. Catching tiny bubbles
3. Doing the ironing
4. Doing the hoovering
5. Mowing the lawn
6. Eating a banana/eating two bananas

...to be combined at will. Hmm, I forget any others.

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 15:47 (seventeen years ago) link

i got an "i choo-choo-choose you" card!

DV, hem hem, "taking"?

GLOWSTIX ALL ROUND!!!

Ah, thanks for the reminder, kv. Being a bit oldskool, I'm bringing white gloves and Vicks.

As for dances, I'm particularly fond of Flossing Your Nose and Italian Pepper Grinder.

valentine's day takes a 180, from my inbox:

"However, if you decide to come to my show tonight, you can try the delicious pink heart shaped cookies and/or the homemade chocolate cupcakes I made for my fellow improvisers. I will also let you buy me a drink and I will make out with you."

On St. Valentine's Day in 1349, roughly 2,000 Jews were burned to death by Christian mobs in Strausbourg. These mobs, led by nobles who owed large sums to Jewish moneylenders (usury being a sin for Christians), blamed the Jews for poisoning the city's wells and causing the bubonic plague.[9]

VD protests, including burnings, going on in India

Spent Valentine's Day in bed with a cold (hence non-stop posting to ILE), and watched an episode of Gilmore Girls where they had a dog funeral, and an episode of House with tapeworms. Romantic.

― accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:50 (seventeen years ago) link

That tapeworm thing spoiled the end of my dinner.

― Michael White (Miguelito), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 22:54 (seventeen years ago) link

It spoiled the end of our packet of Viscount biscuits as well, let me tell you.

Today started buried in stress and deadlines, and ended with lots of sushi. I'm going to sleep so well tonight.

― The PEW Research Center for Panty-Twisting (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 15 February 2007 02:27 (seventeen years ago) link

shiv sena is so amazingly non-fun (although I sort of felt like burning stuff today too)

Allyzay OTM

― Matt Cibula (Formerly, the Haikunym), Thursday, 15 February 2007 03:39 (seventeen years ago) link

but it was kind of my fault I think, still

― Matt Cibula (Formerly, the Haikunym), Thursday, 15 February 2007 03:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I've been blaming you all day!

― Allyzay heard you got beat up in a club. (Allyzay Eisenschefter), Thursday, 15 February 2007 03:44 (seventeen years ago) link

I got emailed the hilarious/cute Link cartoon from VG Cats (you are the last piece - of heart that is... aww hee). And I made us both dinner, which was fancy steak and veggies.

Then we watched our NewsRadio DVD, and Nick tooled around wiht the photo function in the Wii by writing OMG FAG on pictures of peoples Miis.

We so mature.
