once again, Who Hired Her?

[dotinthesky]

I just came from the secretary's office, where I caught the following exchange:

Secretary: you are sending me doodle!
Lecturer: I'm not sending you anywhere, I think you are already there.
Secretary: do you want a clonk?

"Doodle"? "Clonk"?

Where did they get her from? The Hertfordshire County Rest Home for the Bewildered?

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

more like the Kentish County of the Perpetually Insane

[thessalian.livejournal.com]

Okay; she's from the Perpetually Insane, and she's sending you to the Bewildered. ^_^

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

she's sending me to the Murderous

lol

um yes I don't know what those words mean..but she sounds a bit off...

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

i was also bewildered!

:)

[4q.livejournal.com]

oh and ps...I just realized you have some of my more unusual interests in your interests list...I am impressed! :)

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

haha! i went through your interests and thought to myself... hmm, do I like boys in suits? Yes I do. I love going through my friends interest lists because it sparks in me recognition of what I love. And it's a way aswell of forming a stronger link with the friend. :o)

[4q.livejournal.com]

that's so sweet!!! :)

boys in suits make me drool

especially nice fitting, nice suits!!

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

me too! Specially a stylish suit. Speaking as a boy, it's quite hard to get a suit right - you know, proportions etc. So when I see a boy in a suit that matches him perfectly, I know I'm staring at something perfect.

:o)

I agree, my favorite are sixties type ones with the simple lines, nothing double breasted of fussy...ew...I love the mod style...

(I am really a closet mod..lol)

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

hehe... me too... i think mod boys were the best... it's sad that nobody dresses like that anymore (or almost no boys.) I've had some good nights going out in suits. I think here in London there's a good scene for that.

[4q.livejournal.com]

I know...and people don't wear enough hats...nothing finishes off a suit like a good hat...and I am not talking baseball hats here :P

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

baseball hats should be banned! a good hat for a man is very very very hard to find...

[4q.livejournal.com]

I know..lets resurect bowlers!

a nice flat cap or scally cap always looks handsome....although not with a suit..

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

is there anything like a Mod scene in your city?

[4q.livejournal.com]

bwhahahahahahaha I wish! we used to have like a mod soul night which was really fun but I am not sure they have it anymore, and there certainly weren't any mods in attendance..there was a handful of emo kids that seemed to think they were mod...lol

our city is pretty dead for most scenes unless you are a hardcore kid....(especially a christian hard core kid)

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

that's too bad... maybe it's time you whipped up interest on it again???

[4q.livejournal.com]

that would be great! acutally I saw a poster for this cool mod thing happening, it was like ska versus mod and some out of town bands are playing..but! I have a wedding to go to :( so I can't go! and I am pissed, I have a really cool dress I could wear that would show up all of those silly emo kids!

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

can't you go after the wedding? what's emo?

[4q.livejournal.com]

ha ha..oh dear....well I could maybe go after the wedding, I will just have to see how it all works out..and yeah I don't think you have emo kids there, it's like these skinny kids that wear thrift store t shirts, and dye their hair black, and whine a lot...heh

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

oh, and listen to Travis? I think they were packed up and shipped out of London a while ago... the cool thing about here is that there is no sort of "purity" in terms of style (like Goth, or Skin, or Emo)... people kinda mix and match to fit who they are (i think)...

I don't know where i stand... i think i'm too selfconscious to say I'm this or that... but I definetly would not be caught dead in a thrift store t-shirt (unless it was a very very good one.)

[4q.livejournal.com]

bwhahahah..well at least you got rid of them!

really? I am surprised by that because it seems like there are some people there with some serious sticks up their butt about who should be wearing what, and mod revivalists and etc.

I call myself a skinhead, but I am really more like a skinhead, punk, mod mix...my friend told me the other day I dress like a grown up punk rocker...that made me laugh!! :)

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

well, maybe you are right... there are people in Camden Town (this area of London) who fit the Emo, or Goth or Punk look. But, to me, what counts is if the person really believes in it, if it means more to them than just fitting in with their friends. Maybe when your friend called you a grown up punk, she meant that you are in it because you believe in it as a way of life, because that's who you are, as an adult.
I think that's great...
:]

[4q.livejournal.com]

I think that's right on the mark! I have been listening to punk, and dressing punk or skin (although there have been a few different incarnations of that :P) since I was 13, and I can't really see my style or my sense of myself ever changing, I have toned it down slightly, but it hasnt' affected the way I think or feel about myself or the world.

I think I am going to put you on my list of special people...tell me if you feel uncomfortable with that

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

Thanks! no, i don't mind at all! You are making my birthday special you know?

:o]

[4q.livejournal.com]

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]
