Too many fresh graves, pushed up daisies, and tired beat up conversations. Distracted by the past? I thought you were beyond that…move on already. I appreciate that some of you are refraining from that condemning tone…I find your restraint to be revolutionary. Let’s attend to more important details...now, where am I again?

It's me again,
I've been pulling an all nighter, and since you mentioned "Stay" in your blog's namesake, I wanted you to see the lyrics of one of my favorite U2 song, Zoo Station (Loved the Zooropa and Popmart tour. The album closest to my heart is Achtung Baby)
Yet this was the time he wanted to smash the "saint Bono" image, was drinking and close to infidelity in his marriage.
Zoo Station
Im ready
Ready for the laughing gas
Im ready
Ready for whats next
Ready to duck
Ready to dive
Ready to say
Im glad to be alive
Im ready
Im ready for the push
In the cool of the night
The wartmth of the breeze
Ill be crawling around
On my hands and knees
Shes just down the line ... zoo station
Got to make it on time ... zoo station
Im ready
Im ready for the gridlock
Im ready
To take it to the street
Ready for the shuffle
Ready for the deal
Ready to let go
Of the steering wheel
Im ready
Ready for the crush
Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
Its alright...its alright...its alright...its alright
Hey baby...hey baby...hey baby...hey baby
Its alright
Its alright
Time is a train
Makes the future the past
Leaves you standing in the station
Your face pressed up against the glass
Im just down the line from your love...zoo station
Under the sign of your love...zoo station
Im gonna be there...zoo station
Tracing the line...zoo station
Im gonna make it on time...make it on time...zoo station
Just two stops down the line...zoo station
Just a stops down the line...zoo station
I also want to give you a direct quote from Bono (Please do not take this as lecturing)
" You don't become a rock star unless you've got something missing somewhere, that is obvious to me. If you were of sound mind or a more complete person, you could feel normal without 70,000 people a night screaming their love for you."
and this when they started the Zooropa tour
" I think a lot of people has been afraid that U2 had lost in conscience, because it was dressed up to be flippant and Kitsch with all this rock star flamboyance. People thought we had abandoned the past. Really, we had abandoned our own insecurities." Larry
I recall during this period two of Bono's alter ego characters also appeared : Mr Macphisto, and the Fly.
He came out of this period, older, wiser, saner.
So will YOU.
Thank for reading this.
Kari,
Excellent post.
Mayo, Listen to us. Please. We care about you so much.
I'm still spreading the love this morning...my day is bound to go downhill from here. Oh evil sdock10, stop trying to put me in a bad mood. See Mayo...I know all about mood swings. I probably go through 129 1/2 different moods and that's all before noon. Should make a mental note to get that checked out. Really, I should.
Love to all!
Why thank you sdock
*BIG hug to you*
We are passengers together on the roller coaster, Mayo.
We get off slightly dizzy, but fully alive!
god i've now just had chance to read through the huge amount of fun you had last night with SS's puzzle! wow you did so good guys. i wish i could've been there with you but i wasn't. it was really exciting just reading it though so you guys must've had a blast.
so do we really think SS is frank?? i'd like to. so if SS is frank then mayo must be Gerard cos otherwise frank wouldn't have ever bothered to be SS?? as lovely a bloke he is i don't see him bothering to be SS if Gerard isn't mayo?? i don't wanna sound like a child who still believes in santa but fuck it might really be them!!
anyway just wanted to say to kari that i was a big U2 fan (still am) and achtung baby was my fav album also. great point bout zoo station. and great points bout bono and his alter egos.
i'm still freaking out a bit that my name is in the title!! its the closest to being remotely important that i've ever been!! haha!
wow! Busy bees! Bonjour Mayo et tous mes ami(e)s. I hope that everyone is in good spirits, and no awful purple unicorns are bothering people.
Man oh man.
Far, they would never admit that they think Mayo is Gerard because then they would appear insane.
However, if it comes out that Mayo is Gerard, they'll be the first to say "I told you so".
farawaysoclose said...
anyway nothing to do with me at all but i got my name from the U2 song far away so close. good research toujours i think it was you.
yep, that was me! :)
i was still very much in "puzzle mode" last night, and i was ready to google everything that moved! lol
when i read the title, your name was the first that came to mind, farawaysoclose, so i hope you'll forgive me for casting any suspicions on your good character?
i managed to come out of "puzzle mode" eventually, but that was better than a double-shot of
espresso! lol
good morning all -- and hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to work i go!
(damn. exclamation mark much?)
:)
Just checkin' in to tell everyone to have a wonderful day!
Mayo, you do the same.
Be Back Later.
Thanks farawaysoclose,
U2 and I go back a long way! And I remember being right in front of the giant lemon at the Popmart show.
Ah those were the days. A real visual feast!. Also got me involved with trance/house music, hence my love of the other chemicals, The Chemical Bros.
I'm sort of eclectic in musical taste, love hardcore/punk/rock/trance.
Mayo,
I feel close to you today for some strange reason. I've mentioned to you before how funny it is that are lives seem to parallel but they never touch. I might be wrong but I really think you are listening to some of us or maybe just reading what we have to say. I hope that we can at least put a smile on your face or make you think or make you question or make you cry. I certainly won't pretend that I have all the answers or lie and tell you everything is okay. I do promise to try and always be honest with you and tell you exactly what I am feeling....and maybe somewhere in all my babbling and incoherent thoughts you will be able to find something useful.
p.s. out of my head and inside my heart
This message is for Shitsubou Shita. I should have said this last night but I was too brain-fried for coherency. Regardless of who you are, that story / riddle was really clever, and I want to thank you for taking the time to think it up. I'm bummed I was at work and missed all the fun; I really should have gotten "The Color Fred" the second I glanced at it, but I see things through skepticism colored glasses a lot of the time. ^_^
Either way, I TIP MY HAT TO YOU, GOOD SIR (or Madame, whoever you are--I'll keep that skepticism actually. ^_^ )
I also tip my hat to those of you who figured it out. Nice work there! When I say "there's always someone cleverer than yourself," I'm mostly saying it to me. ^_^
Pretty Purple Unicorn said...
What's that? You said you wanted a big ole punch right in the vagina? Hang on. *winds up a vunch* Ready?
no worries toujours, after your marathon puzzle solving i can totally understand you wanting to check me out!! haha!
oh and Kari i've seen U2 four times, three times at wembley stadium, absolutely brilliant!
Hey guys! Just catching up; enjoyed the chat about relationships last night.
I am in my thirties and single.
Some time without all that “love stuff” can make you see things more clearly. There are not many relationships around me that I truly believe are based on real love, although they may believe so and I’m sure have genuine affection for each other, but increasingly I suspect they have just found someone suitable. That fear of being alone and a need to find happiness is strong, I know!
Another friend is now going down this road, constantly telling me how amazing he is and how happy she is (should she need to reinforce it so much?). I want to scream “No” but instead I smile and say “that’s great” ‘cos she wouldn’t listen anyway and perversely I’m happy that she is happy/ thinks she is happy.
Yeah, sometimes the loneliness is palpable. But I still believe in and want real love and hope to remain true to that.
There is great strength to be gained from knowing that you can be alone and that you are basically ok with it.
“I am not afraid to keep on living, I am not afraid to walk this world alone!”
It saddens me that the person who wrote these words may not truly understand them.
hi everyone! what is happening in blog land? (or should that be blog town?)
I know I missed a whole huge something. Where the hell is "Too hot to handle 6:18"?
-VM
And the sap comes out:
I commend you dei gratia. You have such a good outlook on things. I'm in my twenties and have never even been on a date. Sometimes I'm okay with that, other times it sucks hard. I've not yet reached the point where I'm able to say "I am not afraid to keep on living, I am not afraid to walk this world alone..." I aspire to be able to say that one day, but I'm okay right now being scared to death. I know that there's something better out there for me and I just have to be patient. I'm beginning to understand who I really am now. I never took the time during my formative years to turn myself inside out and look in the mirror. I've only done that in the last couple of years. I'm a late bloomer, I know. But, even though I don't always like what I see staring back at me, I know that who I am is who I am and I can't change that. And I won't change that for anyone else.
See Mayo? You're not the only one. It's okay.
hi vm, that was from last night. We solved the mystery of the fox and the zombie!
VM:
Mayo's previous blog. We were trying to guess what the inside story was on Leonard and Fred the Fox. SS was giving us clues as to how hot or cold we were.
It's really funny. You should go look at what went on last night.
MIB, we all think you are awesome! Have you recovered from our detective work last night? It was the most fun I have had in a very long time!
anonymeese,
Can you offer up a condensed version?
-VM
Oh yeah vm, it was in the previous blog entry not this one.
Meese:
Thank you. I've not really recovered. I still want to google everything I see to find some hidden meaning. Maybe SS will offer up another one of his stories and let us go at it again.
ok vm, give me 2 minutes
MIB I have never googled so hard or so quickly in all my life. I was like a crazy woman possessed!
Just trying to put together all the important bits for vm in a condensed version. Where to start? At the beginning I guess....

I hope you guys have as much fun with this as I had writing it!
This is a story like a scar. Like flesh knitting together to close and heal the wound.
Once upon a time there was a zombie called Leonard. If you ignored the stench of his rotting gangrenous flesh and the fact that one side of his face was falling off, you would soon realize that Leonard was a really great guy. He was 74 years old, he was smart, kind and funny and he had the same appreciation and lust for life that he had when he was 20.
One sunny October morning, Leonard was taking a walk, contemplating whether or not to grab a coffee from Starbucks on the way home. Coffee was Leonard's only vice and he wondered if he had already had too much caffeine that morning. 'How much is too much?' he pondered as he thoughtfully stroked his chin and ignored the small chunk of green flesh that came off in his hand. He was walking past an old abandoned factory when something caught his attention. Up ahead he saw a large house with an overgrown garden. There was something moving in the long grass. He cautiously approached and saw a fox in the garden. The fox sensed his presence and looked up at him. The fox made eye contact with Leonard for a few moments before tilting his head to one side and saying 'Hey dude! 'Sup?'
Leonard gasped as his jaw dropped in disbelief. 'My name is Fred' said the fox nonchalantly. 'What's your name, dude?' Leonard hesistated for a moment before responding. 'Leonard....my name is Leonard.' The fox moved closer. 'Pleased to meet you, Leonard' he beamed, exposing a toothy grin. 'Do you live here?' Leonard asked the fox. 'No, I live at the cemetary with my wife and cubs. Our homes are graves.' Leonard could not believe what was happening. 'Aren't you afraid of me?' he asked in surprise. 'Why would I be afraid of you, dude? And please, call me Fred - my name is Fred!' the fox replied. 'But...' he stuttered 'but...look at me...I'm a zombie...I'm grotesque....just look at my skin....' Leonard trailed off, his voice filled with despair.
Fred gave him a quizzical look. 'Whats wrong with your skin?' he asked, genuinely unable to see why Leonard was so distressed. 'What's wrong with it?' he exclaimed in dismay. 'It's falling off everywhere, that's what's wrong with it!!! It's rotten.... and it smells......and the color, Fred, look at the color - who has green skin?' Leonard slumped to the grass and held his head in his hands as he started to sob. 'Hey, I know a lot of frogs that would kill to have skin the same shade as yours.' quipped Fred. Leonard looked up at him and choking back his tears he said 'I wish I wasnt a zombie Fred, I get so lonely.' Fred rested his head on Leonards lap and looked up at him with big brown eyes. 'Leonard, you are unique. So you're a zombie, so what? Stay what you are. This is a giant floating world and every person is put on this Earth for a reason. So, whaddya say? No more sad face?' 'No more sad face.' replied Leonard, a smile breaking out across his tear stained face. With that, Fred jumped up, gave him a wink and before Leonard had time to thank the fox or even say goodbye he had disappeared through a hole in the fence. As Leonard walked home, he replayed the mornings events over and over again in his mind and made a mental note to switch to decaff.
We all thought it was a cute story that some random weirdo had posted and didn't pay too much attention. Then yesterday we got this anonymous post
Anonymous said...
The mood here has shifted. It feels darker and more morose. I understand why some of you have become weary, frustrated, confused and disillusioned but I would urge each of you to cling to every last piece of faith you have in this band and never let it go. This is not the end. Remember, it's always darkest before the dawn.
Mistakes have been made, lessons have been learned, hope has been restored. Each victory is worth celebrating, no matter how small.
I remain, as ever, in awe of the generosity of spirit, compassion, loyalty and support for MCR that is expressed within these blogs. I hope that never changes.
I'm sure we have all walked away from difficult or impossible situations at some point in our lives, but there are some things you just know in your heart you should never walk away from.
'Be there for your friends when they least deserve it - because that is when they need you the most.' The wisest man I know told me this when I was a teenager and I still live by those words.
Hello? I'm back! Anybody home?
I'm gonna pick a new name for myself - Can I be AnonMIA, instead of Anon51?
I've tried my best to catch up on the last 2 days worth of stuff... and I'm exhausted!
Cool little puzzle game SS came up with for you guys! I would've never gotten it!
My car is still in the shop from my Bambi killing incident and I'm in a rental car that I swear is powered by Barney and Fred!
I will repeat what I've said before: I do believe that Mayo and SS are exactly who we think they are - just what I feel.
I don't really have anything interesting or important to say (as usual). I just wanted everybody to know I am sometimes here, sometimes there, and sometimes no where at all...
I hear a sour cream and chive baked potato from Wendy's calling my name, so I'm gonna go on my lunch break now.
A few minutes later there was another anon post which said
Anonymous said...
Did you guys enjoy my literary effort yesterday?
Oh, well... blogger lowercases everything. Almost looks like Ammonia
Some of us are 51!
How's it going?
Hello, mustard! You're Anon2007, right?
I don't the looks of that anonmia... Can I just be MIA?
anonymeese, thank you so much. So interesting. I am going to have to go back and read through it!
-VM
don't *like* the look of
oh man and I misses eerything again.. so what´s up? :)
We said we liked it and then anonymous asked if we had just taken it atface value. We thought he was asking us if we had got the moral of the story. Dei Gratia then asked if both anons that had just posted (the one who said about the dark before the dawn and the anon who wrote the story) were the same people or 2 different anons.
This is what they said
Anonymous said...
Dei Gratia, I am one and the same person.
Sometimes its easy to get hung up on semantics.
Sometimes clues are hidden in plain view.
Sometimes words within stories tell their own story.
Sometimes you just need to look a little closer to make the connection and solve the puzzle.
Sometimes it is important to remember that not all hidden messages are apocalyptic - sometimes they are just for fun!
The hidden message in the story is literal, any metaphorical message was purely coincidental! I hope you have as much fun solving the mystery as I had putting it together for you.
P.S. I know you will all be with me in spirit
Someone then asked if anon's reference to it always being darkest before the dawn meant that he finally saw light on the horizon. He didn't reply but a few minutes later we noticed SS had changed his Latin message to say
'However long the night, dawn will break. Remember you are loved.'
So the the anon posts were both made by SS. ;)
Yeah MIA [(formerly anon 51 ;)], I was anon2007. I decided to get an account so we could decipher the anons.
So I will refer to you as Mia from now on. That okay?
Hurray...I love this place!
-VM
Yep, Mia it is.
You said, "Some of us are 51!"
Were you talking age?
Meese:
Don't forget to add that SS is officially the coolest, smartest, most genuine person on the planet, for doing what he did ;)
No Mia, but it did kinda look like that!;)
You asked is anyone here. And I replyed with "Some of us are." I should have put a comma before the 51. I suck at correct comma placement.
Well, that's OK - because I am 51 and damn proud of it. I just wondered if you had picked up on that.
Well, look at you! 51 and an MCR fan. I totally wish my parents were that cool! I just thought you had pulled a random number out of the sky. I had no idea!
so guys what did I miss? :)
phew this is hard work flitting from blog to blog!
Basically that was when the penny dropped that the story had been written for us by SS and rather than having a moral (although I think it DOES still have a moral) he said it contained a mystery for us to solve. He said it was just for fun and I have to say it totally made my day! *coughmademylifecough*
Then we were really struggling where to begin and looking back it was really funny because we must have seemed so incredibly dense, I bet he was face palming so hard at us! lol But he was very sweet and told us through his location if we were warm, cold or hot a few times then he seemed to disappear. I don't think he stayed long enough to see us solve it completely (I hope he did) but his location is still set at the clue we found where he said we were 'too hot to handle' I think that was when we made the Leathermouth connection. I feel sorry for anyone who missed it, it was a rush and I won't ever forget it. Maybe you had to be there caught up in the moment to understand what I mean, but I cried a little bit when we finally solved it.
Anyway vm that is about 5 hours of excitement and detective work packed into a few posts. Hope that helped! :D
Not much lonely one. Anonymeese is just recapping some stuff from yesterday's mystery hunt. If you don't know what's going on with that, pay attention to Meese's posts here. Other than that, we're just kinda chattin'. It's not very busy right now.
Hey, if 30 is the new 20 - then 50 is the new 40, right? I actually look like I'm about 40 though.
nah, I left yesterday, while we were trying to get on the ground of that story....so I missed the best part again and why? damn timezones arggg... :(
but thanks for enlighten me :)
OK, I'm off to Wendy's for the baked potato in the Flintstone's car. I'll pop back in later!
Well, if Gerard is correct with his hypothesis, then yes. You're only 41. It's nice to age well, is it not?
SS saying "be there for your friends when they least deserve it - because that is when they need you the most."
what a fantastic bit of advice. i think SS whomever he/she is is a wonderful person. i wasn't around for all the fun last night but it sounded brilliant! i'm jealous i wasn't there! damn!

TOTALLY MIB! And when we went back and looked at his posts we noticed he had said when he had been talking about the story
'I hope you have as much fun solving the mystery as I had putting it together for you.'
and that made me (and toujours and ergoproxy and a few other people squeeee like teenies. True story, someone even went 'weebly' if I remember correctly haha, just teasing!)

You all may think I'm a complete loon, but I'm printing this out and saving it. There's so much truth within that post, and everytime I read it, a sense of peace washes over me. SS's words here are amazing.
that´s true mustard :)
MIB, have I missed anything? Phew!
farawaysoclose, I don't want to rub salt in the wound but IT WAS EFFIN AMAZING! I truly feel upset for the people that missed it. It brought us together and if you notice at the start of the first anon comment he says that the mood has shifted and gotten darker and more morose.
To think that he noticed that and then felt moved enough to put together a puzzle for us to crack and took the time to weave it into a story (which does have a moral SS) just to lift our spirits shows how much he totally effin wins at life! I know I'm gushing like a fangirl but purlease, could he be any more cool? I think not. Srsly.
'Be there for your friends when they least deserve it - because that is when they need you the most.' The wisest man I know told me this when I was a teenager and I still live by those words.
If we believe SS is who we think and Mayo is who we think, I whole-heartedly believe SS is trying with all of his might to help straighten Mayo out. Mayo may not deserve SS's help, but judging the character of SS, he's not going to let Mayo fall alone. Mayo needs his help right now, and I have faith that SS will aid in helping him find what he needs. I know he will do it, not just for the sake of their friendship, but for all of us.
anjd I misses half of it ^^ I was stkll there when someone came up with the idea of a code inside the story and the fibonaccisequence etc... it was already 1.30am when I left... oh I hate timezones.... *hmpf*
MIB, I think I know who the wisest man he knows is, don't you? ;)
that sounds convincing, but I´m still suspicious... I don´t know, can´t help it... I´m a suspicious person...
anonymeese i am so jealous but i had a fab 2nd hand experience, your comments were coming in like 4 a minute it was amazing!!!
i am in love with SS!! even if it isn't frank! silly i know!
and MIB i'm gonna do the same!
If I had my guesses Meese, yes.
anontmeese who do you reckon is the wisest man he knows??
sorry fucked up on your name there apologies!
Far:
His grandfather.

^
MIB I hadn't noticed that about those words of wisdom. I just took it as 'be there for your friends' It is actually saying that maybe Mayo doesn't deserve to have a friend like SS and maybe he has not treated him as well as he should have, but SS will be there regardless because he see's he is only acting like a jerk because he is in trouble and needs the help and support of his friends and loved ones. I see now, thank you MIB. You are very wise. *bows down*
yes MIB that sounds very possible.
and anonymeese the bit about Mayo not deserving his friendship but SS will always be his friend and be there for him is so heartfelt.
Farawaysoclose, you should have seen us all last night, I swear smoke was coming off my keyboard at one point! Once we figured out the message was made up of the different words within the story (yeah I know he told us that up front but we didn't get it! Also it would have helped if I knew what semantics meant, I looked it up today and now that makes much more sense as well!) I was just googling everything, it was so funny! And everyone's spelling and grammar turned to shit cos we got all hyper and were typing so fast as soon as we found something!
But Far:
The whole grandfather thing doesn't mean it's right. If SS is Frank, I think the person that Frank looks up to the most and gains the most inspiration from is his grandfather.
But still, SS could be ANYONE, a VERY GOOD PRETENDER. But, I'm leaning more to one side of the fence now.
i hope he does another one and i'm around for it!! not that i'm very good at things like that but just being in on the fun would be great!!
Best bit for me, oh hell who am I kidding, every bit was awesome! But when I found 'the color fred' in the text I screamed out loud and frightened my cat!
yes MIB who knows for sure if SS is who we want him to be but either way he's a top guy (or may be girl) and loves MCR so its all good!
Gotta go bath my kids now will look in later!
its 18.44 in the UK i don't bath my kids at strange times in the day incase you wondered!!
Wow! I missed out on all the fun last night. I enjoyed reading the detective work. Still a little lost, but then again, I am so far behind on these comments. I just can't keep up.
and anonymeese i read the bit about your cat and cracked up!!
30:
Go back up and read anonymeese's recap about what happened with the story. She did a great job with it.
Other than that, you've not missed much. We had some appearences by the Pretty Purple Unicorn and the Fake Shitsubou Shita. Not much else has gone on.
-anon2007
I agree MIB. SS could literally be anyone. This is the internet after all.
It doesn't stop the feeling in my gut that tells me he is the real deal though, but I guess that's my problem if he is just some big faker. I have to say though, it's his sincerity that touches me the most. I was doubtful at first but there are so many little things that make me believe it's really him. I can't explain why. At first I was like, oh yeah, like he would bother to write a story with a hidden message etc etc but the more I think about it, the more I think yeah, this is totally something I can imagine him doing!
mh I don´t know, but that´s me, I´m always suspicious and it´s not easy to convince me... but there´s always the chance to surprise me... you know, Im more like: oh I only believe what I see with my own eyes...
sometimes it´s good to be asuspiciousperson, but a lot of times it´s a bad habit... ^^
Hi Anon2007, I didn't realize you had a new name! I like it.
The recap is awesome. And fake SS is really annoying. PPU, well, I just like typing P P U . :)
I really hope SS is who we think it is. I wish he would give us a sign.
Crap, now I need to run out. Just when I get back in. I'll be back :)
Time for food, I will be back once I have stuffed my face!

What's that? You said you wanted a big ole punch right in the vagina? Hang on. *winds up a vunch* Ready?
You know, I read your blog and concert review long before I encountered you on this blog. I thought you were outstanding. Now, I'm not so sure.
Do you not have anything else better to do PPU?
That was me who deleted that last comment. It's not even worth my time.
Hi, everybody (Hi, Dr. Nick).
I'm up to speed now. So how is everyone?
hi bc *hugs*
hi mj :)
Hi everyone! Well, I wonder what fun we are in for tonight. I'm exausted after last nights puzzle. I hope we get another one soon.
Hi Lonely one! How's the flu today?
Hey MissT!
Hey Martha!
How are the two of you?
Hi Mustard, martha, BC, everyone. I'm fine thanks for asking. How are you this fine evening?
Hi everybody! :)
Pretty quiet here today, all our UK friends must be sleeping. ^_~
Mayo asked for 'more important details', so here's one that should please him: Can anybody recommend a good conditioner for really long hair? (I'm almost out, and I'm in the mood to try something different.)
Mustard: Your post at 11:46 was very heartfelt. You called it 'sap', but it was really sweet.
I see PPU is back. Honestly, if he/she thinks we're so insane, why the hell does he/she keep coming back here?
@ PPU: You've been asked at least twice to play nicely or shut the fuck up. Are you so stupid that I have to tell you again?
hi miss t :) *hugs*
so you´re fine? that´s great to hear :)
yeah it´s getting better, I´m on medication at the moment, was at the pharmacy on my way home...
I'm fine like red wine. Just finished emailing Bh13
MissT:
I'm pretty good. Glad to hear you're doing well.
SisterM:
Conditioner,eh? I know Treseme (French,so it has that little ' thing.) is pretty good. You should try a deep conditioner. Normally just regular conditioner isn't enough for long hair. Deep condition is good for a once a week thing (leave in for 30 minutes) or you can use a little every time you wash your hair.
And thanks for what you said.
PPU:
SisterMidnite said what I was going to say best. Either have something constructive to say and add to the conversation, or don't say anything. We don't pass judgement here, and you won't either. We're all in the same boat.
That's good to hear lonely one.
I agree, that was a lovely post Mustard. There's nothing wrong with being a late bloomer.
And I'm one of the singletons on this page.
It does make me laugh when you lot talk about your husbands putting up with your MCR obsessions. They seem like a good bunch, you are lucky.
I think tonight I'm gonna share a story with you and I don't care if you think I'm bonkers.
When I was 20 my gran died. My mum was crying in the kitchen, she was talking to my gran. She said "wherever you are, if you can hear me send me a sign". "If I have ever done anything to upset you in life, I am truely sorry, show me you forgive and everything will be OK with a sign".
Ladybirds have never featured stongly in our lives but for some reason, my mum asked for that sign to come in the form of a ladybird. At that exact moment, a ladybird flew in through the kitchen door.
Since then, whenever we are at a point in our lives where we need reassurance that things will be OK, we always seem to see a ladybird, as though it is Grandma telling us she is watching.
I told you all on Monday that my mum's mamogram result came back fine. The results came in the post on Monday. Sunday and Moanday we have had a ladybird sitting on the windowsill of our bathroom, It has vanished now but the message was the same as usual, everything is fine.
Make of that what you will.
Excuse the spelling mistakes, but my hands were shaking as I was writing that.
aww miss t, wow.. now I have goose bumps :)
yeah lonely one, cue spooky music.
It is nice though when we get these signs, especially when we are worrying about something.
We always get these signs exactly when they are needed. too many times to be coincidence.
Miss T, that was amazing.
Ladybirds are definitely a positive force in your life!
wow that´s really great :)
I never had those signs I think. but I really believe that I have a lot of guardian angels... that´s what i experienced :)
Wow MissT. That's beautiful. It's so strange the way this world works. I must have not been around when you told everyone about your mother's results. I'm glad to hear there isn't anything wrong. That's wonderful news.
Hi everybody! (Sorry I cannot resist saying that)
Miss t I don't know what to say about that. Its sad but in an uplifting way. If that makes any sense
Thanks, I wonder if any of you out there have something which is really signifcant to you?
Miss t that is an amazing thing that happened. Gave me goosebumps.
I don't really get any "signs," but on several occasions, I've had this "feeling." I don't really know what it is, but I'll be questioning something that's currently happening in my life, and all of a sudden that "feeling" will wash over me, and then in my head, everything will be all right. I don't know if it's a relative who's passed on, or if it's something else. It's just strange.
hi bc :)
and like I said miss t, the only thing i "experienced" are guardian angels... :)
Hey BC! Come to share your story?
Miss T, that is a truly incredible story you just shared. Stories like that convinces me to believe that although there are many terrible things occuring in the world, something positive always comes out of it. That is why I truly believe that there is good in the world. Your story is one of them :) Thank you for sharing that with us.
Hello lonely one :)
thanks people. You all like to share your inner thoughts and I didn't feel like I had contributed enough. My hands were shaking though. As you can imagine, it is our little family thing and we don't go telling people. But I thought I'd share with you lovely people.
Hello mustard. Sadly I have no stories to share :(
Hey mustard, go with the feelings. Sometimes these signs are really discreet.
Wow lonely one "Guardian angels".
It's okay BC. Sometimes I have wierd, unexplainable stuff happen to me and it's not always comforting to have that. It kinda creeps me out, so in a way, you're kinda lucky you don't have a story like that ;)
Miss T, I loved your story. Thank you for sharing.
I have received signs throughout my life, but nothing as consistant as yours. It is truly beautiful.
thanks for sharing miss t *hugs*
yeah you know, things that happened, at least it happened twice in my life, where I really thought "if there weren´t guardian angels, I would be dead..." but so nothing, no injuries...
or it´s destiny? and in those accidents it wasn´t my destiny to die or get hurt? I don´t know...
or did one of you ever experienced spooky stuff?
Yes, but still, your story is a bit inspirational Miss T :)
A couple of times before, I had dreams where they literally came true.
Maybe Mayo would like to comment on his Paramour experience ;)
I saw a dead person walking my street. No joke, it's a long story, but basically I saw a guy walking in my neighborhood. I explained the odd nature of this person to my friend and down-the-street neighbor. Her face turned white and she told me that the person I saw had passed 2 years prior (I had just moved in, so I did not know this). I haven't seen him since.
Spooky huh?
OK, now I'm in a sharing mood. I feel my guardian angel was in the form of a little black cat.
My neighbours had a black cat that adopted me. She would never leave my side and sit at the end of the path waiting for me to come home.
When my dad died, I went to pieces. I couldn't sleep for days and the doctor gave me some sleeping tablets. These were so strong I was only allowed one every two days. But these also didn't work so desperate for sleep, I took a handful. Probably not enough to kill me, I didn't set out to kill myself but i was in the state of mind that if that happened anyway, well, I didn't care.
I took the pills and lay down on my bedroom floor on my side. Instantly smokey knew something was wrong. She got down on the floor nose to nose with me and looked me in the eyes. Everytime i closed my eyes she lifted her paw and slapped me in the face. She wouldn't let me slip away.
So there you have it, a little black cat saved my life. She wouldn't leave my side for days after that, always with that look of concen in her eyes. I never did get to sleep that night though ha!
I don't suppose this counts but it is kind of similar. Last week I was debating coincidences with a friend, you know, is there such a thing, do things happen for a reason etc (v. deep and meaningful convo).
Anyway last week I experienced more 'coincidences' than I have ever known.
I saw 2 of my previous cars driving around.
I had just been talking about the film Labyrinth and then while flicking channels Labyrinth started.
I was watching Miami Ink and this girl called Samantha cam ein for a tattoo. She already had a tattoo of her daughter's name Tabitha on her arm and you know the bit where they kind of flip to interview mode? Well, it showed pictures of Samantha with her daughter at that giant shiny ball modern art thing in Chicago. I immediately recognised the photo's, she was someone I used to casually chat to on the internet, but I never knew her real name, just her user name and I had seen those same photo's in her journal. I was like, woah, it's *insertusernamehere*
Then, I had the song wuthering heights in my head (I haven't listened to Kate Bush in years) and it came on the radio while I was driving!
This all happened in one day. The universe was speaking to me. I still can't decide whether it was saying coincidences do happen or if they don't.
isn't it strange that certain thing might mean nothing, but when you put it altogether it becomes really significant.
Miss T, I'm sorry about your sad story, but I love the part about the cat slapping your face. It made me smile. Animals are amazing. I'm glad smokey was there for you.
Thanks, Mustard!
It' not always easy to not be afraid,that fear is still there!
But you have to believe that you are worthy and that it will happen when it's right. I try to.
Of course, you don't have to live like a nun in the meantime,lol.
In the words of SS "Pactum Serva".
P.S spending ridiculous amounts on fabulous heels works, too. Walk alone but walk sexy!
miss t now I have goose bumps again..
but yeah I was aupair and the house of my guestfamily was a really old wooden house and it was so spooky... my guestmom told me she saw 2 ghosts in her earlier bedroom, which was my room that time and that sometimes she hears music at night, but there´s no radio on...
I fraked out and was too scared to sleep good the first nights after her story and I swear I also heard music some nights...
and one night, I was sleeping, my guestmom was in the tvroom which was next to my room and she said a loud noise was in my room and the dog freaked out and wanted into my room, but she wouldn´t let the dog inside. so she had to but the pillow in front of my room and the dog slept the whole night there... I woke up in the night and went out of my room and tried to get the dog back to her place in the kitchen but she stayed where she was in front of my room....
sounds crazy, but when I was alone in that house... ^^
isn't it strange that certain thing might mean nothing, but when you put it altogether it becomes really significant.
Um...yes...kinda like SS's story? Freaky!
Thank you for your words dei gratia. I appreciate it.
Thanks anon, yeah smokey was amazing. She totally slapped my face, like a person.
One day she was sitting on my knee as I stroked her and I said to her "smokey, I swear you understand everything I say." "I'm so sad I need a hug".
She stood up, turned around and looked me in the eyes. I thought she would snuggle up to me, instead, she walked towards me and threw her front legs around my neck and hugged me like a person. She was one amazing cat, my guardian angel.
try to not recognize all the mistakes I made in my comments ^^
I have returned again for reasons I cannot explain. (I could but why bother?)
Kari... if you need a different view of something, let me know. I tend to stay disconnected from most things and that provides fresh ideas. I'm available for the silly and serious alike.
I had a, thought, if you will...
Mayonnaise VS MAYONAISE-
Have you ever noticed that the sandwich variety tends to turn to a sticky, oily, clear blob when left ignored on a knife or counter?
It hit me... maybe the author variety simply needs time to "clear." I'll point out that I'm omitting the "sticky, oily" part, as it's an awful thing to call someone.
So, "whoever you are" as I like to call you- sit on the blade as long as you'd like and I'll wait...privately enjoying the idiotic connections I create to amuse myself.
Sheesh, I say so little with so many words...
yeah lonely one, animals really sense things don't they.
hello everyone. hows it going? kids bathed and asleep...hurray! large glass of wine in hand...bigger hurray!
i had tears in my eyes re your ladybird and cat experiences miss T. i am an emotional person though (i cry at x factor) but it always make me feel better when i hear things like that.
this is gonna sound pathetic but i read a bit of a mcr fan fic the other day and it was about gerard and frank and they had these guardian angels protecting them god knows where i found it but it was a nice idea i thought!!
"yeah lonely one, animals really sense things don't they."
yeah definetely :)
Aww you are lucky to have a cat like smokey Miss T ^_^ She truly sounds like a angel.
How ironic that Halloween is upon us and we are discussing spooky stories huh? It is much interesting that you guys are sharing your stories with us.
Welcome back Far! We're having a very good conversation if you'd like to join in. :)
It is getting closer to Hallows Eve. You know what that means, don't you?
Far away,Thanks, I laughed so hard at that, "I cry at x factor". Me too but that's cos it's so bad.
My mum and sister love that show but I find it painful to watch.
I feel as though I'm the one up there, especially when they're crap, and i get all red and uncomfortable. I just can't watch it.

What's that? You said you wanted a big ole punch right in the vagina? Hang on. *winds up a vunch* Ready?
You know, I read your blog and concert review long before I encountered you on this blog. I thought you were outstanding. Now, I'm not so sure.
Oh yeah? Why's that, 'cause I don't like trolls? That's cool.
Hello faraway and interested party. How are you? ^_^
Or isn't it also funny how something can happen to you and at that moment you think it's the worst thing ever....just terrible. Something that makes you question everything and you're mad and pissed and hurt and you throw a fit........then and it might be one day later or 1 year later you look back on that event...the event you thought was so catastrophic and you realize exactly why things had to happen the way they did...and you feel so silly for thinking that one event was the end of the world....and everything for one small second makes complete and total sense....almost like there is some greater plan for all of us..........oooooooooh I'm babbling and happy and philosohical....watch out Mayo. I might come up with my best comment yet....hmmm.
Sdock, bravo with that. I've experienced the same thing.
Welcome back Kapunua. You're favorite person paid you a visit, you see?
miss t, that is amazing with your cat. I've always thought that pets are guardian angels in disguise. My dog Ares has saved my life a few times. Once literally. It was the day my mom had died and I was sitting on the floor in the bathroom with a razor blade, I wanted to end it, I really did and I was slowly working myself up to cutting the veins when my dog came in (he's a huge shepard lab mix) and he bumped my arm that was holding the blade so hard that I dropped it. Then he kissed me. Looking into his big brown eyes I realized that I shouldn't go out like that. Somehow he gave me the strength to get up off that floor and wait for my friend that was at work, he wouldn't leave my side the whole time. Another time I came home late from a friend's house. It was around 3am and just as I had turned off my car another car pulled into the driveway next door. I was gathering my things together when this guy knocked on my window. It was dark so at first I thought it was my next door neighbor, but when I opened my door and the light hit him I saw that it wasn't. He only spoke spanish so I didn't understand to much of what of he was saying, but he did ask about my neighbor and I tried to explain that I hadn't seen him. Then he grabbed my arm, I pulled away and started for my front door and he followed me. He tried to force his way in with me when Ares jumped up and almost bit him. He drove away a few minutes later. That was scary. I thank God everyday for my dog, my protector. He's been protective since the day we adopted him. My mom's old boyfriend that had moved in with us was really weird and he liked to wake me up by laying on the bed with me, after we got Ares, Ares made sure that there was no room for him to that anymore. I have more stories, but I think I rambled enough. I even have some ghost stories since I live with 3 ghosts. Sorry I wrote a novel this time. But that's me, sometimes I don't talk enough and other times you can't shut me up =]
Yeah, Halloween. I love spooky stuff. here's something,
Smokey was an all black cat, beautiful. Witches are supposed to have black cats.
I have been in the London dungeon tourist attraction three times. There is a part where you are ushered into a fake courtroom and a few people are singled out and accused. everytime I have been accused of being a witch and flying my broomstick round London.
I'm not a witch.........
Or am I? Cue evil laughter HA HA HA HA!
Hi everyone!
MissT, amazing stories, thanks!
I had a strange experience once but everyone thinks i'm crazy and laughed when i told them. I'm convinced it was real though and i guess that's all that matters.
How is everyone?
Wow anonymouse. That's amazing, with your dog and whatnot. Sometimes I think these animals we have deserve a Superman (or Superwoman) cape. They're amazing little creatures.
Doing well DG, doing well. How are you doing?
hi everyone!
sdock i've had the same experience. i totally believe in fate and destiny.
Anonymouse, I love your story. I just feel that animals know what they are doing when they intervene.
I'm glad you didn't go through with the razor. I've felt that way myself and I've had multiple friends and family try to talk me out of it but in the end looking into your pets eyes is sometimes all it takes to come to your senses.
I'm sure all you out there with kids are thinking. Hm, the love of animals, but they are our kids.
I'm quite well, for the moment, BC. Thank you for asking. *tips the hat*
I'd be better if I weren't teary-eyed. So, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to continue to ignore the emotional comments here. Some make it impossible to remain composed. Next thing you know, I'll want to hug something. *cringe*
(You and you know who you are- just hit me in a place usually well armored. I admire your strength.)
Hi there DG. How are you?
Can you guys tell that I am feeling a bit chipper today? ^_^
You are very welcome interested party ^_^
I also believe that our pets are a big part of the family. I do not see mines as pets at all, but simply, a part of my family.
not at all miss T.before i had kids i had a cat called eric (eric cattona to be precise - yes man utd fan here, obviously not from manchester!! sorry!!) i know you are a spurs fan, and by the way england result tonight....shit!!!
anyway i loved my cat like my child. he died when i was pregnant with no 2 sprog god i cried for days. i still miss him, he was beautiful and always wore perfect eyeliner! not literally of course but it looked like it!
Yes, all of these stories are amazing in their own way. Thank you all for sharing. It's so funny how some things in life have no answers, like Sdock said, but later on, you find out why. You all are amazing, amazing individuals. I'm glad to know each and every one of you.
BC:
It's better to be chipper than not, right? Glad you're having a good day.
This is so cool how we are all in spooky mode.
I have a presence in my house, but it doesn't bother me at all, I refuse to let it scare me. The only time I get a little bit scared is when my cats freak out, otherwise I'm fine. I can't blame them though because 'it' once shut one of my cats in the top drawer of my dresser. I never leave my drawers half open so she didn't get in there herself and it was the top drawer which is about 4ft high.
And 'it' did slam the kitchen door and lock me in my kitchen once and my kitchen door doesn't even have a lock 0_o I had to call my dad who had to take the door off it's hinges.
Oh and when I was decorating the spare room I had painted test patches of pink, lavander and baby blue on the walls. The next day I found the lavander and blue had been crossed out with a chalk cross. I don't even have chalk in my house, so I did actually opt for the pink, anything for an easy life!
I agree miss t, it may sound nutty but in those moments that I was looking into his eyes it was like he was begging me not to leave and every time since that I have had a thought of doing away with myself I remember that day and try to hold on for him if nothing else. And you are right, he is my kid =]
At University, in the halls of residence, my room would never warm up. the rest on our corridor was scorching but not mine, I can't count the times the engineer had to come out, he was baffled.
One night, I felt someone get into bed with me. I don't mind saying I almost shit myself. I jumped out of bed and ran to the door. The door was still locked from the inside and no-one was there. i didn't dream it cos I was awake and you know how it feels when you are in bed and someone sits on it and the bed goes down. you can't mistake that.
After the initial shock, I realised it was a ghost and thought, well what are you gonna do about it. I went back to bed but didn't sleep much. during my year there, this happened multiple times and whenever it did I just said hiya to my uninvited guest. After the initial freaking out, what can you do? Accept it is all.
Guys, that is some harrowing stuff you've all had happen to you. I'm really sorry to be hearing all of that harsh stuff.
It's true though; animals are better than people a lot of the time. ^_^ I know mine are.
Don't make me break out the animal stories, god! I'll be here all day. ^_^
Not too bad, thanks!
Still got a cold/flu thing (who hasn't!) but hanging in there.
BC, you do sound chirpy, good to hear!
Anything exciting going on with anyone? (that includes you,Mayo)
Oh and by the way anon/Mayo: No I did not see anything. Wrong time zone, love, and trust me I do need my beauty sleep!
Mayo,
Sure wish you would give us a sign that you're here, but if not oh well. I will say this though...if you can't get something from this group of people that you have right here then Buddy you aren't trying very hard. We're all opening up to you, laying it all out there, old scars, open wounds, broken hearts, new loves, sickness, death, religion, faith....it's all here. We're a pretty special bunch.
And as long as we're talking about fate and destiny...I have a feeling that's what has brought us all here. Through all this craziness, we have found each other and it's pretty damn amazing.
Hi faraway! man u, I won't hold against you. Go spurs. Yeah, shit result tonight, damn those artificial pitches.
Sorry to hear about your cat, I still miss smokey every day.
Anonymouse, I'm glad that memory keeps you holding on, it's the little things that do.
hahaha guys it´s evening where I live and when I read more spooky stories, i won´t sleep that much...
why the hell did I asked, if anyone has a spooky story to tell??? argggg *laugh* :)
REDRUM
Anyone else on the MCR LJ comm read about that porno where they were interviewing the boys? I haven't seen it but apparently it's right in the middle of a porno when up pops an interview with MCR and Gerard waxing all feminist and talking about Motley Crue. There's a link to it but I'm kinda too squicked by porn to click on it. Anyway, I'm curious as to what he has to say. You know, so I could throw it back in his face re: taking MSI on tour.
Ha lonely one! Be careful what you wish for. it is the time of year for spookiness though.
REDRUM
SSAYM.
Sorry. Couldn't resist. ^_^
yeah miss t that´s right *laugh* and the weather fits pretty good... ^^
The Shining
sdock10, that was beautifully put.
This place is a refuge and safe haven for US, while we know for a fact there are others than are unable to stay here more than a few minutes. I know what I'm trying to say I just can't find the words. It's like this place (not us) rejects, chews up and spits out people that are not 'right' for this place. I don't think I have explained well, I am not being elitest I just mean even though we are all so different we are a certain 'type' of people here. I'm going to shut up now but I know what I mean.
Beautifully said sdock10.
So are you going to join us Mayo?
We're all hear to listen!
ssaym
^ Kapunua, I had to read that 3 times until I got it! ROFL
They're here.
Something spooky. That little girl from poltergeist. She was the spitting image of me whan I was little.
Now I look like a big version. I still have the long blond hair, I'm just a bit taller.
Maybe that's why spookiness is drwan to me.
Drawn obviously.
crap spelling, soz.
I "secretly" posted "REDRUM." I wanted to see the reaction. I lose at trying make you guys all freak out and whatnot.
Thanks ASS. Made me giggle.
DG, you still have the flu? Many others seem to be suffering from it from what they told me. Get well and a speedy recovery ^_^
Some days I feel chipper and I guess today is one of them. Heh.
wise and amazing words sdock :)
Candyman
Nope not gonna say it 3 times.
Oh funny story! I was watching The Ring when my tv froze and I couldn't switch it off at the remote control, I had to switch it off at the mains and as I did I was praying that it would switch off cos I was thinking 'wtf am I going to do if I unplug the tv and it doesn't switch off?'
Sdock:
You're the Queen of Words for the day. We are a special bunch. Thanks you guys for sharing this experience with me.
I absolutely agree Sdock10.
Anonymeese, you would just crap yourself. I'll bet after you wre so relieved.
How about saying Bloody Mary five times Sdock10? ;)
I feel the same way you guys....I feel so lucky to have found this place. It gives me a voice that I never knew...no, wait...a voice that I was always scared to let out. Scared of what people would think, scared they would laugh, scared they would judge...and now I feel like I have been freed from myself. I always felt locked up in my own thoughts, with no outlet...no way of letting it all go. And now, I'm not scared to do that.
So I thank all of you for allowing me this opportunity to share...it truly is a gift.
And that includes you Mayo...You make me look at myself and question myself and I thank you for that as well.
BC,
bloody mary 5 times? Have you lost your mind? NO FUCKING WAY...nuh uh.
Come on Mayo...tell us a good ghost story for your next blog....pretty please. That would be super excellent!
Ooooh, are we talking about best scary movies?
Night of the Living Dead for sure. That movie scared the christ out of me.
Poltergeist - I grew up with that movie. I can probably still recite most of it. Everything about it scared me, I mean so badly that I became neurotic over it and refused to sleep in my bedroom for the better part of a year. (And to be honest, weird things were going on there. Uhh, not that kind of weird; I was twelve!)
The Shining, absolutely. I watched that one on my 9th birthday. THe whole thing scared me, but the worst part for me was the guy in the bear suit. You know, the one that 30STM "re-did" with Tomo in their video for "The Kill?" (Hilarious. Love them for that.) To this day people in furry suits with big plastic heads make me want to scream and run away.
The original Halloween. The part where he has the sheet over his head and is just standing there staring.
Mausoleum (although some of you may know it as "One Dark Night.") The one with Meg Tilly where she has to sleep in the mausoleum to join a sorority, only the dead psychic guy brings all the zombies to life? Holy crap. I saw that one in the movie theater when I was about ten. (This was back when kids were allowed to see anything. Good times.) I ended the night hiding under the chair, but still watching, with my Hershey bar melting in my hand. I didn't sleep for weeks. It's one of my favorite movie experiences ever.
The original Dracula. It wasn't really scary, but I still think it's one of the best movies ever made. Bela Lugosi was so perfect for it, and Dwight Frye, well, he pretty much owned in everything he ever did, you know? He was so disturbing.
You know, I have to say it: They don't make scary movies anymore.*
My parents didn't censor anything from me and we never heard of things like "PG13" or "NC17" back then. Kids of any age could walk into a movie theater and watch what they wanted; it was up to your parents to decide if you had the right perspective to accept and understand that it was fiction and that it wouldn't mess you up for life or scar you emotionally. That's how I was raised, and you see that I turned out fine.**
*Except for 28 Days Later and The Ring. Those scared me.
**twitch... twitch...
Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice
...nevermind.
(someone had to)
You are welcome Sdock10 and remember that no one here will judge you with what you have to say. Most of us are very supportive and caring :)
As for the Bloody Mary thing, I hope you know I was joking ;D
Oh funny story! I was watching The Ring when my tv froze and I couldn't switch it off at the remote control, I had to switch it off at the mains and as I did I was praying that it would switch off cos I was thinking 'wtf am I going to do if I unplug the tv and it doesn't switch off?'
Mine did that, too. >_> I bet they did that on purpose.
OHMIGOD, BLOODY MARY. It works...if you have a super crazy imagination. Let's just say I never--never go into any room with a mirror that isn't fully lighted.
And, Light As A Feather, anyone?
A member of my family who is no longer with us owned an apartment building. The person who owned was very old and so were the people who lived in the apartments.
I awoke one night crying, pleading for my family member not to die. I did this for a good two minutes than fell right back to sleep. Two days later I found out that one of the ladies living in the apartment building had died.
I agree. This blog is only 10% about Mayo, SS, kyeotr etc and the rest is about us and I think that is amazing. Nothing beats this place. OK so we have to tolerate PPU's and the occassional anon with 'hai, zomg yr such losers and r only jelus of geralds wife!11!!' but I always enjoy talking to you all, and I always learn something. The convo's here really make me think about things I would not usually think about. I am grateful to have found this place. Thank you Mayo and thanks to everyone else.
The original Halloween is by far my favorite scary movie and horror series ever. It never gets old. I'm planning to watch it on Christmas.
I have to say that I have been coming here since the beginning and even though I don't post very much I enjoy observing the fun conversations. This place has brought together a really cool group of people.
Have you noticed that when you were young all zombies were slow and bumbling. These days they are really speedy brain munchers.
Light as a feather...stiff as a board.....
Totally agree about The Ring..that shit creeps me out terribly. And The Grudge....it's a stupid movie.....but CREEPY!!
As we are discussing scary movies, I started watching them when I was about eight and let me tell you, that was not such a great idea back then. I had surreal nightmares on end where I could not sleep, especially Freddy Krueger themed nightmares. I used to have nightmares about Chuckie too.
Continue with the "Getting Ready for Halloween" scary talk. I'll join back in later. Off to class.
:)
there´s nothing much I could say... I feel the same like you guys... the place we created here is just awesome and it´s really much fun to come here every evening, also I´m sometimes not able to catch up etc... :)
so thanks everybody (you also mayo) for tolerating my horrible english ;)
My favourite thing from any horror movie is from American werewolf in London.
The guy that gets killed keeps coming back to the wolf guy and every time he is a little bit more green and mongy.
On his neck is a little flap of skin ripped so that it wobbles when he talks.
it is one of those things that once you have noticed it, you'll look for it every time. When he's onscreen I can't take my eyes off it, it's mesmerising.
Amityville horror, the exorcist and ringu are the only movie that have scared me.
lonely one, your english is great.
I also love coming here to talk freely to all you lovely people.
