Murder on his Mind

Yesterday, I almost murdered [livejournal.com profile] naturalbornkaos.

I was on my way home, changing tube trains at a particularly infernal Bank station, when I spotted him standing on the platform, reading a horror novel. I approached him quietly. I imagined his body falling on the tracks, the central line train cutting his body, splattering the sweaty commuters and the posters advertising third-world getaways.

Just as my hands grabbed him from behind and pushed, images of life in prison flooded my head; I immediately held on to his body and stopped him from falling on the tracks. You can guess how startled and shocked he was after staring death in the face.

We chatted while tube trains stuffed like sausages came and went. Finally, we decided to be assertive and push into a somewhat empty train. We said our goodbyes at Liverpool station and I made a mental note of stabbing him to death next time I see him (a possible cinema excursion).

I know you are not fond of Tarantino, but how about Grindhouse when it comes to London?

Please try to refrain from murdering him. I quite like him alive. :(

I knew I hired the wrong assassin! ;)

I am quite anxious to see "Grindhouse" actually, although I expect my back will be killing by the end of its two hundred year run time. On the bright side, I've already watched all the 'trailers' in the middle on Youtube, so at least I could nip out to the loo when they're on. ;)

(PS: I wasn't reading a horror novel and we didn't go all the way to Liverpool together - only Liverpool Street - but I guess you've got to dramatise these things for the full effect. ;))

I'm actually curious about Grindhouse after reading a whole article about it and violence against women in movies in G2.

I doubt it's a brilliant film(s) but at least it's got my curiosity piqued.

This is a bit of a change from being peaceful and nice grass. I am going to look very carefully at you if we ever have to take the tube together.

shoving friends in front of oncoming tube trains sounds as much fun as I use to have when young, and I would torture and decapitate small furry animals.
