Thank you for the follow and hello! Love Exposure is an interesting choice for a favourite movie. Those were some weird four hours.

Oh btw pike, I think I've been sending emails to an old account of yours that you don't check/have access to any longer? How can I contact

Er, that's weird. I've just tested both e-mail handles (agne@ and pike.malarkey@) and they seem to be working ok. That said, I sent you a story yonks ago but I never received a reply so maybe it's connected? I'll drop you a line on your two e-mails (ratmag and personal), tell me if you get them.

I have just finished the Bomb story and I really enjoyed it. My favourite bits were: 1) descriptions of the pre-Unification museums which made me think of Pamuk's Musem of Innocence in Istanbul; 2) "Telling, sometimes, is to watch someone, and to not pretend you weren’t looking when they notice."

Okay, I have just put 2 and 2 together! But...I was always here. It was you who went missing, Rat mag link went down and everything disappeared. What happened?

Re internet memory #2: interesting that you mention creating lots of accounts. The author of the article you linked to mentions not bothering to feed her Neopets as a kid since they couldn't die. Maybe I'm the sensitive kid here. I could never! The Pound was a constant heartache for me, just its bare existence :)

The pound was so sad!! Sounds contradictory but I didn't care that much for the pet aspect of the game... I liked to explore, play games and attempt to make lots of neopoints. However, I HATED seeing the sad/sick pictures so I kept my current pets fed/healthy, but out of sight, out of mind I guess lol

In Balloon: "You don't lie a life if you never play ball" - I assume that's "live a life"?

Then that is an interesting line. English teachers love lines like that :-)

Hi! :) And yeah, it's a weird and ridiculous film, but I feel that it never reaches a point where it's alienating or lessers the impact of the more emotional scenes. That's really why I love it: there's so much going on, it's all over the place tonally and pacing wise, but somehow, it works. Perfectly. it's monumental. It feels so full of life. idk
Though I haven't watched many movies, so I don't have much of a frame of reference lol.
Oh I wasn't knocking the movie. Whatever its faults, I DID watch the whole thing in one sitting which I can say about no other movie of that length. It's fun and involving, and a true original. I've filed it under 'torture porn' but I'm a bit of a gentle flower that way.
