MAGDALEN!! Alliekat! Lil! Legume! Blackout! That other guy! That
gal! That one dude and that chick!

The agitated guy that could't stop saying "nigger"!

The problem with SubGenii making lists of SubGenii is, no matter what,
spasmodic mutation ever precludes completeness. Spasmodic mutation, and
office politics.

Well, we could bitch and gripe about current events or entertainment
news, but to tell the truth I've been enjoying the hell out of this
Shower of Kooks that has been going for over a month now. Also, when
Magdalen dragged those people from the smoking-quitters' newsgroup over
here, I was thrilled to see that they were even NASTIER than us, YET
UTTERLY BEREFT OF THE YUKS AND GRINS. Jesus, what is the POINT? My
admittedly limited observation of that and other newsgroups, primarily
binaries ones involving huge file transfers of obsessional media and
geekish technical complexities, has made me value alt.slack all the
more.

We get the dual benefits of some of the most hilarious Fragmented Pinks
trying to tell *us (!)* that "Bob" is full of shit (while peddling
their own incomprehensible home-made cult), and some of the most
sadistic, acidic, caustically sarcastic kook-bashers on the whole
Internet.

I'm sure there's more VINDICTIVE and PRACTICAL-MINDED flaming and
trolling on, say, alt.conspiracies, but there's never anything about
COOL shit like, I dunno, prairie squids, Seven-Bladed Windbreakers, and
all like that.

The crossposted shit bothers me only when the crossposted groups
weren't already in my kill filter. As Prostata suggested, if you set
your doohickey to filter out anything with names like "rec.arts" or
"rec.sports" in it, you can eliminate all that nonsense without ever
having to see it.

I guess things have been kind of slow round-abouts, if you're not into
the kind of sociological experimentation that uses the fragile minds of
frustrated unfollowed would-be gurus, ignored usenet poets, and
ineffective clairvoyants as "volleyballs."

I know what you mean about using the ng to avoid work -- I'm doing that
very same thing, and yet my work this week is literally to edit and
webbify alt.slack posts!

Luckily there is also alt.binaries.slack, which is often as much fun as
The Onion. I have been slide-showing through all the a.b.s. artwork
posted since May, to prep it one last time for a monstro SubSITE new
art mine. That sort of thing renews one's faith in SubGenius
creativity. As it happens, a.b.s. has been kind of slow lately,
relative to a month ago. I posted some real nasty David Alan Coe songs
there a couple of days ago along with parts of last week's ESO radio
show. Phineas Narco is always posting his entire bizarro show. If you
have broadband... That audio stuff is not much use to slow-modemites
yet. Or, possibly, to those crippled by "good" taste.

I finally got the Borrowed Digital Video Camera borrowed again, so I'm
planning after SubSITE fix-up to add a shitload of video suitable for
VCD, plus I can finally finish rough-cutting the 5X-Day stuff I shot so
the DV can be fucked-with by you and Sinphaltimus and whoever else has
time to monkey with it. While "at work."

Now it's my turn to tediously replace the PO Box, in a zillion little
title cards, this time on digital video. I already did it to a zillion
SubG CD jewel case labels. God damn, I might as well be stocking
produce at Piggly Wiggly. No wonder I keep coming back to this stupid
newsgroup to antagonize loonies, or to watch my friends antagonize the
ones I'm too grossed-out by to speak to.

Learn to use your message filters? My alt.slack experience is purest
ambrosia, because I put in about a minute a week keeping it that way.

BTW, where IS Chas. "Mark" Bee/Ouroboros Rex/Server Thirteen anyway?
I been using my real name too long? I'd think broadcasting HoS since
'93 would get me SOMETHING. Shuh.

Kids today.

Last time I said anything to you you had a hissyfit. Why don't you
try WORKING at work, or else REPENT, QUIT YOUR JOB AND SLACK OFF like
a SubGenius. Oh you, you're one of those butteye guys aren't you...
"Butteye have to pay my rent... butteye want to buy an x-box...
butteye butteye butteye." You shouldn't be reading this newsgroup at all.

Sorry, but after sparking up VaLIS for a few days prior to 9/11, it's
bound to be downhill for the rest of the year. It *could* have stayed up,
but the presence of predatory forces required me to run interference while
it entered hibernation. Or something like that.

:( Lists are bad.

Alliekatt, you know you're my buttermilk AND bananas.

:) Mmmmm. Buttermilk and bananas.

Ooh baby. Keep your hands on that one, it's probably the only nekkid
picture of myself there will ever be. Black Mamba, however, wins for
the best pet name my johnson has ever been given.

BTW, never thanked you for all those pix from XDV you uploaded. They
were mucho entertaining.

I know. I did a "bad". Flash realization of what it must be like for
winners at award ceremonies.

I thought this would cover me.
*ducks for cover under some whining and begging*

Guess I've been avoiding the 'ol killfile. It's getting necessary.
Also, my office won't get us on newsgroups, so I'm forced to use
Google. *groan* So at work, I can't visit alt.binaries.slack.

Yeah, like how about the obvious Bill Palmer imposter?

I'll have to check it out.

I WISH I could do this video stuff at work. I guess I can, but I'd
have to coordinate the time-consuming rote tasks. Like changing PO
Boxes....
