dear young hippie friend
whom I should have made out with
that night in vermont

sorry but my love
for my girlfriend won the day
she is now my wife

yet I think of you
your round eyes and oval face
lips sent right from god

lying there like bugs
mike and robyn all kissing...
staring at the stars...

Dada's first pic just had me freaking out, because two of the people in it look eerily like people I know, neither of whom know each other. OR DO THEY?

I love you too, insufferably hippie-steezed herbal iced tea that miraculously actually seemed to work today and made my afternoon survivable

― Millar (Millar), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 19:23 (twenty-two years ago)

― Chris P (Chris P), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 19:31 (twenty-two years ago)

Am I the only one who mistook the iced tea for whiskey even after seeing "STRESS" written on it in big letters?

Dear hypothetical liquor with "STRESS" written on it in big letters, I love you long time.

― Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 19:31 (twenty-two years ago)

I always write "STRESS RX" on all my booze, it's kind of comforting.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 19:32 (twenty-two years ago)

my ear has be rebuffed.

dear ear, i hate you. now i cut you off. love, vincent van hulkington.

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 19:40 (twenty-two years ago)

I said I wanted your ear! Let's have a party in the barn. Love, Ally XOXO.

― Ally (mlescaut), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 19:48 (twenty-two years ago)

strongo if you had drank the last beer at a party knowing it was warm, with the spirit of narcotics inside your body, if you had seen the "crap burger joint" or walked past the "bus stop" in Dublin in 2003, if you had felt the analog synth like wetness of the rain and the propulsive snare like kick of beered up Irishmen after arguments in the takeaway then you would truly hear the RHYTHMIC INVENTION.

― Ronan Mike Taylor (Ronan), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 20:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Millar,

I like the Energy one, even though it has *ahem* qualities that can be a distraction at times.

I like this thread. In fact, that short vaguely goth young lady with the blue eyes and black hair getting out of your posh sports car in front of the market i bought my AAA batteries at, I've felt like I've loved you for years. Come home.

― gygax! (gygax!), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 20:26 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear leopard-print silk taffeta: I love you, I covet you. But would a coat made of you really work in my wardrobe?

― j.lu (j.lu), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 20:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear spiky haired cute boy with the fantastic smile: I don't love you, but I'd like to love you for an hour or five.

― luna (luna.c), Wednesday, 30 July 2003 21:06 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear indie rock boy: I don't love you any more, but hug me again the way you did Monday night and I just might relapse.

Dear pretty young doctor who's taking care of my Dad: you seem so shy and nice and seemingly way too young to be a doctor, I would like to give you a tonguebath but I'd rather if you kept your mind on fixing my Dad's brane, so maybe in another life.

― Bryan (Bryan), Thursday, 31 July 2003 03:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear lava lamp, I adore you, and have done now for more than 6 months. I thought you were a passing fancy but still yr cheery determined bubbling lifts my spirits. Do you have a girlfriend?

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 31 July 2003 03:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear ILX: I love you. I think I love you way too much, but I still love you.

Dear little bwoy that sleeps in the racecar bed in my house and for whom I make veggie corndogs for at least once a week and who also just happens to be the fruit of mine loins - I love you so much it makes me alive.

Dear patterns of sound created by strings or voices or woodwinds or horns or samples or anything else, arranged in manners as to elicit reactions in listeners, you are why I am, you are my wife/lovah, you crazy music you.

Dear big ass cup of coffee: you are what I live for. Without you, I am nothing. You are similar to a man who will fight for my honor, and also the hero I've been waiting for, but in liquid format. J'adore.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 31 July 2003 12:53 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear Wheat Thins: well, the main place isn't really open yet for a breakfasty thing, so I appreciate you being there, though you are currently almost already devoured.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 31 July 2003 13:03 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear J1mmy's story about being so hungry that he poured milk over a bowl of triscuits and ate it like breakfast cereal, you made me laugh so hard I lost a little s'um from me bladder.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 31 July 2003 13:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear indie girl at the train station this lunchtime, who is probably only 16, and wearing black flares and Art shoes, I love you, but your older, plumper, less attractive sister is probably a seething ball of jealousy at her genetic misfortune compared to you.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Thursday, 31 July 2003 13:14 (twenty-two years ago)

sigh, with so many of my passing fancies, like when i see a girl in a restaurant or a bar, and im absolutely intoxicated with them, theres always a BWCFH (boyfriend with crap facial hair) that comes out of the toilet before i would ever dream of approaching the girl, and then i just have to forget i ever saw them.

i mean, what is it with beautiful women and men with crap attempts at chin fuzz?? who said soulpatches were back in fashion? tony freakin almeida?? (and even he shaved his off for the second series of 24). i want women to come forward an explain this to me!

― Bob Shaw (Bob Shaw), Thursday, 31 July 2003 14:09 (twenty-two years ago)

Attraction to beardos is an atrocity I cannot understand, let alone explain.

Dear liontigre, you are making me fail logic because I am too busy trying to sort out the ramifications of such a scenario to actually put you into predicate logic terminology. Yet somehow I still love you. Kisses liontigre.

― Ally (mlescaut), Thursday, 31 July 2003 14:14 (twenty-two years ago)

Bob, just grow a soul patch, and when the women come running to you, ask them what the fuck they're doing. Then you'll find out!

Dear winter, with your not-nearly-100-degree weather, oh how I miss you and long for you, no matter how much rain you bring.

PS: Except Chris. I love him, almost to distraction. Especially when the light from the monitor hits his face in just that way... he's beautiful. I want to remember him like that always.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 31 July 2003 16:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Dear cute brown-haired girl (Kristin? Kirsten?) who works at Whole Foods, who dresses in an early-nineties style (frayed jeans and a t-shirt over a long-sleeved shirt), and who I've seen at Belle & Sebastian and Sleater-Kinney shows but with a lanky, bearded boyfriend who looks like a fucking rabbinical student, I nevertheless love you.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:15 (twenty-two years ago)

this proves my BWCFH rule. ilx0r ladies who consort with such men should out themselves now!

― Bob Shaw (Bob Shaw), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:19 (twenty-two years ago)

haha this is not a rule. really.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:24 (twenty-two years ago)

it is, its just happened to me one too many times recently, every beautiful lady i see, theres always a hidden boyfriend, bearded, often lanky, waiting to walk out of the toilets or come back from the bar and interrupt me and talk to me about post modern literature and his work as an artist ("yeah im having a few of my newest works displayed soon, im thinking about using a no-wave jazz fusion musical backdrop to compliment them, yadda yadda yadda....") and all i want to do is look at his chicks cleavage, and talk to her some more, and hopefully eventually have sex with her.

not all facial hair is bad though. just lame arty facial hair really.

― Bob Shaw (Bob Shaw), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:32 (twenty-two years ago)

oh that's ok then. there's no way my facial hair is 'arty' (might be lame tho').

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:34 (twenty-two years ago)

oh another fancy:
dear dark haired girl from Three's Company. Is it janet? ive only seen it a few times, but recently i saw a picture of you and thought yeah thats a nice piece of ass. i guess you're probably like 45 now, but still i aint fussy, we could hook up.

― Bob Shaw (Bob Shaw), Thursday, 31 July 2003 20:47 (twenty-two years ago)

dear slightly-curvy-girl with mousey hair i keep seeing at gigs and clubs and record stores, i love you and wish you'd actually look up just ONCE

Dear Ally,

I assure you that the aluminum can of Yoo-hoo loves you right back. As do the glass bottles and the paper gable cartons. For the drink boxes, it's more of a lust thing, but they're willing to keep it chill and be friends.

― Kat from Yoo-hoo, Friday, 1 August 2003 04:12 (twenty-two years ago)

For most of my life I wasn't particularly interested in beards or other facial topiary. But then I fell for the Indie Rock Boy I mention above. And even in this case it wasn't the beard itself, it was "the beard is part of Him, and therefore it is good." But like I said, I'm pretty sure I'm over him.

― j.lu (j.lu), Friday, 1 August 2003 04:23 (twenty-two years ago)

dear madame butterfly girl. you are like a blond, freckless, opera version of tash. you're hot.

dear 8:09am bus girl, you smiled at me in the library today, i love you.

dear rock degree boy, you like ELP and thats really fucking wack, but you are a drummer and you make polyrhythms look easy and thats sex.

dear long dark-haired, olive-skinned girl in the black leather jacket, black knee-length skirt, plaid knee socks and way cool black velcro adidas stan smiths who smiled at me at the bus stop this morning, i love you even more than i did when i smiled at you yesterday - you have great shoes and are almost too cute...

dear girl i met at a friend of a friend's wedding. you're the prettiest girl i've ever seen in real life (as in, not in movies). and then when you started to sing along with the jazz band? oh, i crush on you.

― colette (a2lette), Friday, 1 August 2003 10:59 (twenty-two years ago)

I actually left the house a bit today, I didn't see anyone I'd even want to talk to. Bummer.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Friday, 1 August 2003 11:03 (twenty-two years ago)

On the other hand, John Cale's 'Vintage Violence', how did my 14 yr old self ever dislike you? NOW I am more than open to yr "overblown" arrangements and surfeit of weird cheerful songs. I love you.

― gaz (gaz), Friday, 1 August 2003 13:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I have no idea the title, but I bet a google search on "drunk monkeys" might yield interesting results, albeit maybe not leading you to this particular film.

sigh, we should all just forget about it, all the good ones are indeed gone, gone with their goddamned live-in rabbinical student boyfriends, and we're doomed, its either loneliness or some hateful screeching heffer we can barely stand to look at yet we stick with out of self-hate

God, there is a Chrine-looking girl who ends up on the same tube as me now and then, most of my way home. She is very cute, and always intently reading like Auster or Borges or something. She is also no more than half my age - I guess she's a student at the uni where I work.

Dear amazingly cute boy in my Cal Physics II class a long time ago, I saw you in your red sporty convertible with that girlfriend of yours the other day. I suppose maybe if I'd asked you if you wanted to go to a movie when my heart yearned for you, I'd be the girl with the wind in her hair, but I was too shy and awkward and didn't think you'd like me. I suppose you might have not, but at least I could've tried. Well, I loved you then. Now, I'll have the memories. Thanks.

― mark p (Mark P), Monday, 4 August 2003 07:56 (twenty-two years ago)

the worst kind of cute is when a girl has an ultra nice ass and maybe you can see a little g-string over the top of the jeans, and the jeans keep on slippin down a little so she has to pull them up a little every few seconds. and then you see her face for the first time, and she looks like a bucktooth jimmy saville. i regard this as a form of false advertising

Dear tiny blonde woman with fabulous fashion sense on the Metroliner down to Baltimore, I loved you until you began flirting with the hideous lacrosse-boy-turned-yuppie sitting across from you, and loved you even less when I saw the lacrosse boy who picked you up at Penn Station. However, since you may be turning to lacrosse boys to mask the pain brought on by the deep thoughts of you enormous brain, I shall love again one day.

― Colin Meeder (Mert), Monday, 4 August 2003 14:05 (twenty-two years ago)

No boys play lacrosse, surely? I contend that they are all actually gay and just friends with her, and she will throw herself at you at the next opportunity.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 4 August 2003 14:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Dare I ask what the lacrosse boys did to you when you were younger?

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 4 August 2003 14:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Lacrosse is one of those sports that I believe to be entirely mythical -- people just pretend it exists so they can wear those silly clothes.

― Larcole (Nicole), Monday, 4 August 2003 14:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Do they all have names like Trevor and Whit?

It's funny-I always questioned the sexuality of lacrosse *girls*, especially the ones I knew.

You were right to do it...

― ModJ, Monday, 4 August 2003 14:35 (twenty-two years ago)

The lacrosse boys I've known have been thoroughly hetero--but I've never known any named Trevor or Whit.

― JuliaA (j_bdules), Monday, 4 August 2003 14:39 (twenty-two years ago)

I am of course aware that lacrosse is a proper shit-scary sticks and balls in the air ArdKore smash-yer-face-out-if-you're-not-careful sport which just happens to be played by posh home counties pony-girls.

There are a lot of self-appointed AdBusters out there. I know because my ass is definitely bigger from spending the last 2 weekends in the Midwest and lately I am getting the "wrap-around" checkout, viz., when a guy passes you on the sidewalk and his eyes track uninterrupted from your ass to your face as he walks past you to see if your face is comparable or whatever. WTF? Guys, we SEE this even if we are wearing sunglasses! It's not a one-way mirror!

I'm assuming you're aware of the reverse version as well, which I see like at least once every day?

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Monday, 4 August 2003 21:31 (twenty-two years ago)

You're totally right. Sorry, I think the one gabb describes is the wrap-around checkout "Classic" whereas mine should be the reverse wrap-around, difficulty level 3.1.

Dear Ally,

The Yoo-hoo Chocolate Beverage Corp. is an all-seeing, all-knowing and all-loving maker of chocolicious gloriousness. We are a notion, a zeitgeist, the glimmer in the eye of a friendly poodle, the smile of a child in a muffler-repair commercial, and have long since learned how to transubstantiate and multiply, and can thus exist both in the Carlstadt, NJ beverage-making facility, and on the interweb typing mash notes to fans. We are eternal. We are Yoo-hoo, and we love you, Ally.

Dear young-looking boy-man I spotted in the supermarket last Saturday,

You look like you're maybe about my age or even a couple of years younger. You looked at me and smiled. I smiled back. I couldn't do anything more than that. I wonder why you smiled -- were you just being friendly? I wouldn't mind it at all if you were just being friendly. I desperately need good male friends, because I have far too few of those both online and offline. I highly doubt you were doing more than just being friendly, so I still hold out hope we can run into each other again and we can become friends and hang out and do friend-type things. I don't currently love you, but I am very much hoping to love you in the agape sense.

three weeks pass...

After seeing Kill Bill (which is undoubtedly the best kitsch & ass movie ever - way better than Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls - hell by the end I think it might have transcended K&A a bit) I went walking around Charing & Cross Road and was awestruck by a girl working at the register in this bookstore called Media. I ended up having to run to an ATM (which I was hoping not to do before I leave tomorrow), buying a PAPERBACK of John Huston interviews for the equivalent of 30+ dollars that I probably could find at the Penn State Library so that I could see her face to face. It was worth it, cuz we had a nice chat about how they were out of pennies (my inability to understand her accent helped elongate the conversation). If I was going to be in this town longer than tonight I probably would have asked her out based on her shy beauty alone. But I guess it was nice just knowing I can still be so struck by someone in a brief instant. Sigh...

Dear beautiful Russian girl waitressing in a small Eastern Kentucky mountain town Italian lunch restaurant.

Dear very tiny Chinese girl who coldly humored my attempts to chat you up about the snow but then smiled when I referred to the juvenile asshats in the corner as Beavis and Butthead while I waited for my beef & broccoli, I love you.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Friday, 9 January 2004 17:31 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm not sure why, but I really like this thread.

― NA (Nick A.), Friday, 9 January 2004 22:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Dear waitress at the pub where I just had a meal; I quite wanted to bend you over the leather sofa and fuck you good.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Friday, 9 January 2004 22:43 (twenty-one years ago)

dear boy whose family picture I took while being forced to work for my friend during the busy holiday rush: you're too young for me, but my god, I want to lick you like a lollipop. xx

dear girl who works at the coffeeshop with the ridiculous saucer eyes and 16-year old looking bangs dyed bright pink who is probably actually like 25, you serve me at least three times a week and i sit for like two hours writing there in front of you, but i bet you don't even know i am alive.

― fiddo centington (dubplatestyle), Friday, 9 January 2004 23:14 (twenty-one years ago)

dear christy carlson romano, disney teen star, you look alarmingly like the girl i'm dating who is out of the country at present, and i, uh, like you a lot.

― g--ff (gcannon), Friday, 9 January 2004 23:18 (twenty-one years ago)

Dear video-store girl,

You might infer from the frequency with which I visit your establishment that I do nothing but rent DVDs and drink the occasional Odwalla. In fact, I lead a fulfilling existence that also involves cereal, repertory movie theatres, and the internet.
You may also notice that I am spoken for. Yes - the redhead that keeps renting Billy Madison and Big Daddy, that's my wife. So, I'm not in love with you per se, but I hope you too live a rewarding life. I notice you work nights. I hope your days are filled with the light and happiness enjoyed by only the most deserving of souls. I hope you find a man (or woman) to care for you and equal you in understated wit and quiet beauty.
If only I could know your name, I could browse your selection in the "staff picks" aisle and share in some of the celluloid experiences that so obviously motivated you to dedicate your life to the hawking of magnetic tape and aluminium discs. And Milk Duds.
Don't listen too much to those nerdy punk boys that work with you. Stay free. Don't share their grating and unrelenting ironic love of child stars and 80s metal. Don't sully your soft skin and luminous eyes with their dirty piercings and cheap ink.

I just want you to know, you tore out my heart when you accused me of returning "Irma Vep" late. I dropped it through the slot at 10:58. I'm certain.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Friday, 9 January 2004 23:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes she is. Perhaps one day, I'll introduce you and then maybe I'll get to rent the entirety of Berlin Alexanderplatz FOR FREE.

― @d@ml (nordicskilla), Friday, 9 January 2004 23:59 (twenty-one years ago)

― s1ocki (slutsky), Saturday, 10 January 2004 00:00 (twenty-one years ago)

dear girl in the chemist, I liked your eye shadow. But, unfortunately, I don't quite believe in love at first sight, so I can't end this with I love you.

Dear Pepper, thank you for dragging oops off to be-- kidding.

Seriously, now.

Dear last three people I've IMed with:

You lot were the only three people I've encountered in a 48-hr period who've truly understood me. You make me feel like not quitting, like I should abstain from locking myself up forever from other people, that I should continue to immerse myself in humanity. Here's to you, J, D, and A. (And why can't I find males out there like you guys?)

― Tenacious Dee (Dee the Lurker), Sunday, 11 January 2004 09:09 (twenty-one years ago)

to the soon-to-be-condemned intersection of Troy & Oak Streets in Providence, RI and all who live there:

I love you. I hope you don't all end up homeless. I LOVE YOU. Had some of the best times of my life in those buildings--friends, shows. Utopia. But now it's gone. We should have learned better after the first time.

xoxo & RIP

When I am frazzled and hungover - for example, this morning - I notice that the tube always seems to be full of lithesome visions of pulchritude. I, however, am unshaven, speccy and probably smelling of bouze which ruins it, somehow.

Dear impish, prematurely silver-haired man at the video store, I hardly ever crush on men, but you're so striking in a way that's simultaneously cute and handsome, so I'm gonna say you're just plain hot. Thanks for being nice when I had to return that DVD for skipping (even though I later discovered it was my DVD player's fault).

Dear blonde softball player who interviews players and stuff on Fox's pre-game Saturday show, I always forget your name, it's probably Jenny something, I don't love you but I'd pitch to you.

(We could mix a lot of metaphors here. If I pitch and she's catching, who gets to second base?)

She can get to second base!

Jennie Fitch, that's it. I actually like that she knows baseball, etc., so I probably should've remembered her name for just this occasion.

(She won an ESPN Page 2 "Hot Athlete" poll, I think, was that the picture? Or maybe Anna won and they kind of ignored that and showed Jennie anyway.)

dear girl beside me in line for the pluramon show, you were wearing lime green tights, bright red shoes, a layered yellow skirt, a red and white striped shirt, a very fluffy and daring yellow sparkly scarf, somewhat puffy blonde hair (a good midpoint between purposely puffy and disheveled), and smart red glasses... and pulled it all off without looking like you were trying to attract any attention whatever. also, y ou had the good sense to get out of the concert while pluramon were sucking. i love you.

dear, coffee shop girl whose friend tried to motion you to talk to me, I know you like me and I was vaguely unsettled by your voice being deeper than I thought it would be but I love your pigtails and the way you walk so slow and waver all over the pavement, I might just ask you out.

Dear remarkably nerdy but very cute girl with bright naturally red hair and thick indie-girl classes who works the used bookshop in the gay neighborhood in the city:

What the hell? I went in and selected a book, then saw how cute you were while paying, so I ran to the atm to get more money, came in again, and bought more books. I even asked you a question that I obviously already knew the answer to. I sent signals aplenty.

Why didn't you ask me about my selections, thus leading to conversation, dinner, coffee, and crazy sex (which has been brewing within your repressed librarian-like heart for so long) in your quaint little apartment overlooking T0wer Gr0ve P4rk?

I know you dug me. You were so shy and smiley. But I had nothing to say. There was nothing for me to talk to you about. You had no pins, were reading no books, had no cute little birthmark that was visible, nothing. The burden of conversation was obviously on you.

I love you anyway, and will figure out more books to buy when you're working.

― Nick Lanham (EstrangedNative), Monday, 19 April 2004 08:40 (twenty-one years ago)

dear hippie guy who comes into work like every night to buy milk and bread and stuff. I saw you at the hippie club and even though sometimes you wear that hideous tie-dye jumper and carry a fringed peruvian manbag of some sort, i still love you.

you have curly hair and amazing eyes and you look faintly amused all the time. what is up with that? i know you know i like you cos every time i get to serve you (fnarr) i go bright pink. if you come in tomorrow night give me yr phone number and let me indie you up a bit. it won't hurt, i promise.

dear girl in houston texas t-shirt with glasses & short blonde hair: you were cute. you could have sat down on the bench next to me instead of standing awkwardly reading the bulletin board. that would have been totally awesome.

thank you for holding the elevator door for me. if it weren't for you, i would have to hurl myself over the plexi-glass and to my death.

dear tall boy who i think is my friend but didn't reply to my text message...STOP FLIRTING WITH ME. holding my hand and then getting off with some skanky 19 yr old has BROKEN MY HEART. can you not see she will flirt with anything. also she is stupid. also she is shorter and probably cuter than me.

you have adorably ridiculous hair and an i-pod so i still like you. even though you use it to listen to damien rice and the libertines. (the i-pod not the hair. that would be pretty amazing).

despite the fact you work for a store that has a dodgy rip-off of simpsons brilliance as its name, you make my shopping experiences a thrill. you listen to crap techno and your feigned indifference (which may well be masking actual indifference) and dark brooding looks always brighten my day. when the old dude is there instead of you, i somehow manage to find unessentials i need to buy at your over-inflated prices the next day... just in case...

Dear Northern Irish girl, blonde, about 5'3", chatty, amazing voice, lovely figure, ass just squeezed into jeans, how could I have not seen you for the whole of last term and then suddenly see you three times in one day, and wearing a strappy white vest top which makes your breasts just that little bit more prominant than they have any right to be?! I would love to share beer and chat with you.

Dear photocopying girl, opposite my desk, I love you. She could do all her photocopying in one go, but no she has been going back and forth all afternoon. Thanking you.

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 27 April 2004 14:15 (twenty-one years ago)

I take it she is photocopying her arse?

― N. (nickdastoor), Tuesday, 27 April 2004 14:19 (twenty-one years ago)

no and anyway, her arse is very petite.

Dear tall and absolutely beautiful big-eyed Latino girl in the video shop - I am spending far, far too much money on DVDs at the moment. But you smiled at before I'd even made it to the shop door on Sunday, so I'm sure you know that.

There's too much bared flesh. It's only spring. Man, I LOVE working on campus.

― Sick Nouthall (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 27 April 2004 14:26 (twenty-one years ago)

only a little bare flesh - when she bends over the photocopier. But it'll do for now.

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 27 April 2004 14:31 (twenty-one years ago)

It's a cop-out -- but it's adultery in the heart as well!!

N. is right: MarkH promises a sinister future, above.

Matt DC: possibly I have seen that video chick too? But actually the cutie I saw in that shop (if indeed it's the same one) was no latino but, well, a pasty indie kid as far as I can remember.

There's too much love, but it's all unidirectional?

Dear Boy who resembled a better looking version of Tim Freedman from Aussie band The Whitlams.

You were on the train to Dorking about six weeks ago, you were clearly not English, but you were exceptionally hot with beautiful brown eyes. I toyed with striking up a discussion with you, knowing that you too were Aussie, but I've been in England too long now to break the 'no talking' rule. I was also wearing no make-up that day and felt a bit crap.

I wanted to shag you good right then and there, but instead, I averted my eyes, read the paper and fantasized.

Dear Girl who I see frequently sporting Bikini Kill shirt,

Did you see me smile at you when we nearly collided as I left Lattimore hall? I had planned out what to say next time I saw you but I was totally preoccupied!

I was going to say:

"Hey, weren't you at the lecture about the oil energy crisis" and from there win your heart, soul and mind!

Love,

Dear devastatingly handsome man at the coffee shop/bookstore where I took my lunch break today, you are most certainly an unreal vision and would quite obviously look at me as some hideous creature from a decidedly muddy and murky place, but damn, you are the most handsome person I've seen IRL, and if you gave me a photo of yourself, I could content myself with just gazing at it for several minutes at a time. Please don't take out a restraining order against me or think I feel I have a chance with you, but if I start going to this place more often and see you there again and again, I might gather up enough courage to do what I would adore doing, i.e. attempting to nurture some kind of friendship or acquaintanceship with you.

Today, I'm back to loving you. You were wearing the same cute, rounded toe shoes my girlfriend has, albeit a different color, which was slightly unsettling. Way to light up that Kamel as soon as you stepped off the bus at 8:30 a.m. It was kind of hot. But, are you trying just a little to hard to be cool?

I know a thing that's most uncommon;
Envy, be silent and attend!)
I know a reasonable woman,
Handsome and witty, yet a friend.

Not warp'd by passion, awed by rumour;
Not grave through pride, nor gay through folly;
An equal mixture of good-humour
And sensible soft melancholy.

'Has she no faults then (Envy says), Sir?'
Yes, she has one, I must aver:
When all the world conspires to praise her,
The woman's deaf, and does not hear.

dear fellow employee at the municipal office:

even though i only work there one and a half days a week, i've already come to the conclusion that everyone working there is a soulless corporate drone/career bureaucrat waiting for retirement.

so imagine my surprise when i opened the stairwell door and it slammed into you, who was entering the passcode in. tall, cute, well dressed, we stood grinning at each other for several seconds before i ran away.

why oh why wasn't i wearing my id badge yesterday?

this movie looks too scary for me. i don't love it.

― colette (a2lette), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 13:00 (twenty-one years ago)

(The whole premise of the movie/game is that they're working on this chemical compound that has the unfortunate side-effect of bringing the dead back to life and turning them into brain-munching zombies; a catastrophe in the lab unleashes this compound upon the entire complex, plus their other genetic experiment run amok and the only person who can stop what's going on is an amazingly cute special agent with a shotgun.)

― VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Tuesday, 11 May 2004 13:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Dan OTM. Even without Michelle Rodriguez or Paul Anderson directing, I will continue to antipicate this movie until I actually see it and it breaks my heart.

I've got it so, so bad. Finding it difficult to think about anything else today.

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 08:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Today's the day to ask her out!!

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 09:05 (twenty-one years ago)

I know, I know...just trying to decide whether to just go up to her desk and ask her outright. At least I have spoken to her now which helps. I think it would probably be bad form for my first conversation with her ever to be the one where i asked her out. She's prolly would've thought that a bit weird.

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 09:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Go and get some coffee or something and buy an extra one, then come back past her desk, offer her the spare coffee, have a conversation, then ask her out at the end of it.

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 09:21 (twenty-one years ago)

haha, good idea Archel - in theory. She's on the floor above mine and knows where I sit now (as result of an exchange of emails earlier when I offered her an Estonian chocolate) so it would be like i'd taken a huge detour to the upstairs pantry when I could've gone to the one that's ten feet from my desk!

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 09:26 (twenty-one years ago)

Exactly! She will know it's a ruse but she can still gracefully choose to ignore it if she's not interested (obviously that would not be the desired outcome though.)

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 09:43 (twenty-one years ago)

do you have any co-workers of less than average height that could ask for you?

― koogs (koogs), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 09:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Archie, nooo! I once went and got two drinks because I wanted to use one to help me chat up a girl, and I've seldom crashed and burned like I did then. I looked sleazy and unappealing and justifiably died on my feet.

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 10:02 (twenty-one years ago)

two drinks is different from two coffees, though...i suspect that less people are concerned about the risk of roofies in their java...

― colette (a2lette), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 10:26 (twenty-one years ago)

oh, yeah, that reminds me: dear guy that let me try his 'snakebite' on saturday night. even though you're in a band, i love you.

― colette (a2lette), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 10:28 (twenty-one years ago)

What a timely moment for this thread to be revived. The first random person I posted about on this thread is going to be at the party I'm going to on Saturday night. I haven't seen her at all in the past 12 months, and am feeling a rush of giddy anticipation tempered with mild fear.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 10:39 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh blimey. Good luck MrDC.

― Ricardo (RickyT), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 10:55 (twenty-one years ago)

argh, this isn't going as I anticipated. A guy in IT here said that I should just go for it, the worst that could happen is that she could say no, so I went up to her department with a chocolate and when I got there she was away from her desk. So I thought, I can;t just wait around here for her to come back, that'd be weird, and anyway, what if she was in a meeting that lasted an hour or something? So I left the choc on her desk and asked her colleague at the next desk to say that I'd been there and left a chocolate for her (maybe I should've left a note, I don't know). What if the colleague eats the chocolate herself and keeps stumm about it? Ack!

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:37 (twenty-one years ago)

mark, i think you did ok. it would have been weird to wait, and it's unlikely that he'll eat her candy!

now just hope she comes down to thank you for it!

― colette (a2lette), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, come on, leaving chocolate on her desk is a great move!

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:42 (twenty-one years ago)

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:45 (twenty-one years ago)

Maybe you should have left a note. Though thinking about it, I now have visions of it all going bit Peep Show.

― Ricardo (RickyT), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Eek. Yes. Is this Mark's Stalingrad? (Peep Show out on DVD November btw woo!)

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:48 (twenty-one years ago)

she's just sent me an e-mail which simply said "Thank you. That's really kind".

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Now reply with something romantic in Estonian!

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Mark! Mark! t5ell her you'll buy her a Cornetto if she lets you ***** in her ******* with a ************ **** and a bowl of ******** before *******ing her mother's *******!!!

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:56 (twenty-one years ago)

This is all a bit like that epidsode of Attachments I watched on BBC Prime, but without Mark offering Romola Garai coke in a pub toilet and then getting puked on as he shags her.

― R.I.M.A. (Barima), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Yet!

― Jimmybommy JimmyK'KANG (Nick Southall), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 13:58 (twenty-one years ago)

I asked her whether perhaps she might like to go for a drink after work and she replied that she had other plans and had just split up with someone.

― MarkH (MarkH), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 14:39 (twenty-one years ago)

Still, where there's life there's HOPE.

― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 14:39 (twenty-one years ago)

Aww Mark, that's a shame. Whatever happens, you've earned MASSIVE props by actually being gutsy enough to do this. Most would run a mile.

― Markelby (Mark C), Tuesday, 24 August 2004 15:55 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, good on ya for trying dude! I would've run a mile.

I meant to mention this girl who I saw twice a couple of months ago, she had this faded mickey mouse jacket, it was tatty yet cool, and I wanted to tell her that I thought her jacket was the epitome of cool, but I didn't.

leave it a couple of weeks and ask again or try to forget about her completely? Hmmm. I'm not sure if I could do the latter even if I wanted to.

― MarkH (MarkH), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 08:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't ask again, I don't think. She may change her mind of her own accord and is bound to be more likely to if she doesn't feel under pressure. But continue being nice to her etc, and don't let her forget you exist.

― Archel (Archel), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 09:08 (twenty-one years ago)

*throws spanner*

if she is telling the truth about just breaking up with someone, she may well be more open to saying yes in a couple of months. I know i would be, and also i would be impressed not only by the asker's persistence but also by their willingness to wait for me to feel better etc.

― gem (trisk), Wednesday, 25 August 2004 09:13 (twenty-one years ago)

Ode to the girl on the elliptical machine in front of mine:

You were running, hard, and listening to an ipod the color of lime sherbert. You wore a white sleeveless t-shirt, and the sweatwings on your back were perfectly symmetrical, translucent, and stuck to your skin like a band-aid. A band aid to fix my broken heart. Woe is me, to thee, elliptical-girl. Sigh... You wore maroon running shorts with 'VIRGINIA' across the back. the middle 'I' was wedged in your firm, perfectly longitudinal asscrack, and the other two 'I's were centered, each, over a posh cheek. I imagined talking to you:

Me: [Lookin' at the bouncing boobs] What's swingin
Her: [Lookin' at my schlong] How's it hanging?
Me: You have nice "I"s.
Her: You're brazen.
Me: But I've got a heart of gold... and a few semiprecious jewels hidden somewhere.
Her: I'm always up for a treasure hunt.
Me: I prefer clever cunt but I'll settle for what-have-you.

La rue assourdissante autour de moi hurlait.
Longue, mince, en grand deuil, douleur majestueuse,
Une femme passa, d'une main fastueuse
Soulevant, balançant le feston et l'ourlet ;

Agile et noble, avec sa jambe de statue.
Moi, je buvais, crispé comme un extravagant,
Dans son oeil, ciel livide où germe l'ouragan,
La douceur qui fascine et le plaisir qui tue.

Un éclair... puis la nuit ! - Fugitive beauté
Dont le regard m'a fait soudainement renaître,
Ne te verrai-je plus que dans l'éternité ?

Ailleurs, bien loin d'ici ! trop tard ! jamais peut-être !
Car j'ignore où tu fuis, tu ne sais où je vais,
Ô toi que j'eusse aimée, ô toi qui le savais !

Photocopier Girl was at the Julian Cope gig last night. Well, she might not have been at the gig but she was in the club afterwards. I went up and to her and tried talking but she looked confused like she'd never seen me before and said she couldn't hear me which may have just been a ploy to get me to go away without actually saying so.

dear guy carrying around a mic last night. you were one of the only boys dressed like a normal person at trash, and there was something magical about your white t-shirt and jeans and lovely blue eyes. i'll assume you were carrying a mic to the dj, and it wasn't actually part of your outfit. every time you walked past, it made me swoon. i love you.

but thanks for giving your number to that girl in the ugly off-the-shoulder pink top. bastard. (it doesn't diminish my love, though. i'll assume you were REALLY DRUNK or something)

dear cute indie girl eating ice cream cone,

I met you once. Why you break heart?

dear paul (if that's your name),

it was kind of you to warn people to move their cars. when you spoke, you instantly reminded me of a syntax professor from my undergraduate years. i had to walk outside during the break to resist the urge to speak to you.

Oh and I introduced myself and talked to Oct 5th girl! Her theory is that people aren't allergic to cat dander, but rather to their saliva! It was a sweetly awkward conversation. We were both nervous.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Tuesday, 26 October 2004 06:25 (twenty years ago)

dear blonde girl with rosey cheeks tonite at TOKIO, I love you. You have style for miles. Your dancing, mild foot shuffle but *perfect* shoulder movement, is my favorite.

This is a spot-on description of my best friend Ch4r, apart from the rosy cheeks.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Tuesday, 26 October 2004 12:01 (twenty years ago)

Friend of a friend who I met the other week, you look a bit like Miss Elizabeth off of WWF only with a posh accent. My tongue drools just thinking of you.

― Johnney B (Johnney B), Tuesday, 26 October 2004 12:53 (twenty years ago)

Dear crazy blond pixie of a former flatmate of a good friend, you have been on my mind all month now ever since that night we met, despite my reservations. Your nickname does your first name a true injustice (and I thought that particular nickname went out in the 60s). I'd like to either kiss you or kill you, it's all the smae to me these days.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Tuesday, 26 October 2004 13:06 (twenty years ago)

Dear new girl in the IT department, I am purposely going to do something horrible to my computer just so that you have to come down to my office to fix it. Also, thank you for smiling when you caught me staring at you last Friday.

― J-rock (Julien Sandiford), Wednesday, 27 October 2004 08:16 (twenty years ago)

Dear scruffy-haired blonde cutester on the northern line this morning. I dig your angora cardigan. I admire your heavy pop star eye makeup, at such an early hour on a wednesday, even though you were wearing glasses. And the existence of your perfect lips, coupled with the knowledge that I may never get to kiss them, will haunt me for months.

One question though...the wires of your ipod headphones wound their way down inside your t-shirt. I couldn't figure out where the pod itself was though. It wasn't in the pockets of your jeans. Or in your bag. It stumped me. Can you give me any clues?

Dear boy with shiny shoulder length dark hair and huge dark eyes who was hunched over studying something in the library whilst chewing your pen and wearing a really old "Batman" t-shirt that looked like it was at least 12 years old, I love you. I will rub your shoulders to make you less tense.

Dear girl who smiled sweetly at me as you passed in the street today. Sorry, I was lost in my own troubled thoughts which is why I looked glum. I didn't see you 'till the last second and I didn't have time to respond, but I was smiling after you passed anyway. I half wanted to turn around and ask you to come back to my flat so we could spend the rest of the day in bed, drinkng wine and fucking, but, instead, I just kept on walking. Oh well. Thanks anyway you silvery, smiley, long-striding sylph.

Dear blonde girl who works downstairs in Worcester's Waterstones, I haven't seen you yet but my mate enthused about you after he bought a book from you last week. I'm going to pop down there now to ~~check you out~~ have a browse. Okay, I mean check you out. Please do not dissapoint, I hope to love you.

Dear new pet-shop woman, I already thought you were pretty sexy, with your big black glasses and intelligent smile. But last night, when you showed me that picture of you in the paper as a member of the new roller derby league in town...well, let's just say I'm smitten, kitten.

But only on like a crush level. You're still not as hot as my lovely wife. Still, though: FISHNETS. ROLLER SKATES. Damn.

― The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Tuesday, 1 February 2005 20:39 (twenty years ago)

Dear girl I sort of knew in high school, ran into a few years later only to have you completely not remember me... I saw you today at the deli but was afraid of saying hi because I didn't know what I'd do if you didn't recognize me again. Probably die a little inside. I've always thought you're an amazing person.

I was having a cigarette outside a well-known Fort Greene -- well, bistro is the only word for it -- and a young woman stepped out of a taxicab and walked towards me, towards the door, and just smiled so broadly that I imagined myself to be the random person she had decided to fall in love with at that moment until I realized I knew her.

Ug, so many, ug. Esp. cute girl downstairs who I'm building a database for. I put a button on a form called "Take Me" (as in, to the information you're after) and when she came up and asked "What does Take Me do?" I real life swooned and stuttered like Hugh Grant. Shocking.

― Come Back Johnny B (Johnney B), Thursday, 12 May 2005 06:32 (twenty years ago)

Does thecobrasnake let you find someone, or just find a photo of them? They all look pretty horrible (apart from that girl!)

isnt that that site where someone had a go at everyone on it, and then there were pictures of you and chaki in there somewhere? those parties look way cool

I don't know, probably. Some people hate fun. Chaki's been on it, but the guy studiously avoids me (while freely snapping shots of my dates). I used to think I was too old not hip or something, but now I'm pretty sure the guy is either intimidated by me or thinks that I don't want my picture taken.

Does thecobrasnake let you find someone, or just find a photo of them? They all look pretty horrible (apart from that girl!)

No, you can't really contact anyone through him, but if you've seen him you can at least go to the site and look at pictures of your night out. Actually, if you're on myspace and connected to a few hipsters, then you'll probably find the person by just browsing a bit.

Also, there are lots of pretty girls on his site!

Dear brunette who stood in front of my car this morning, you were wearing an orange vest and a tweedy jacket and black linen trousers and I just wanted to get out of the car and bend you over and take you right there and then, and, in fact, you got in my car and I drove you to work but you wouldn't come to my office for illicit pre-9am sex in my small seminar room (even though I can lock it and it has blinds and no one would be in) because you said it would be embarassing and you were scared of getting caught and we've been together nearly four years and now and we really should fuck more because you are a hot little bitch and I want you.

Dear shy beautiful girl taking photos in the woods with your mum,

Dear beautiful Middle Eastern girl having her portrait taken in Leicester Square last night, I feel like a fool. I couldn't help smiling because you were so gorgeous and sweet and because the lady drawing your picture was so talented and clever and everyone was so into what she was doing. And when you took a moment to talk to me because you felt like sharing the moment, I couldn't quite believe it and I now realise that I should have asked you if your friends wouldn't have minded me keeping you for a second so I could ask you some actual questions. Quite frankly, you were so lovely, I didn't even think you lived in London and now I'll never know because I looked when I should have leaped and after we bid adieu, I walked home looking for a hard surface to bang my head against, suddenly realising that I've probably been chasing the wrong girls (if I ever chase 'em, that is).

Also, big love to the portrait artist, D0na Cr011 and D0n W4rr1ngt0n (Manchild was off the heezy).

― Seuss, Wednesday, 22 June 2005 08:18 (twenty years ago)

Dear strange, plump, not-very-graceful and somehow irresistably cute girl with the painfully sweet voice that I sort of spoke with at school last week: your saying how you loved the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as a little girl fascinated me, moved me, aroused me, especially in my later day- and nightdreaming. The next few days were spent glancing - and you kept glancing back! I'd almost worked myself up to asking you out when I realized I'd overheard you say something that first day to another girl, something about a 'boyfriend'.

This really is my favourite thread I know of, no hyperbole.

Then all of the sudden, at the counter on the left G appeared out of nowhere and grinned and waved at me enthusiastically for me to go over and be served. It was a beautiful moment. I ordered a chicken nugget meal and she asked me what drink and i said coke and she gave me the meal and i said thank you and she said thank you and we smiled.

I was so thrilled at the time I forgot to ask for barbecue sauce but thankfully someone at work has one spare. Not that the food didn't taste extra sweet anyway.

Yo, I ain't seeing you in a minute, but I got something to tell ya, listen.

See the thing about you, that caught my eye,
Is the same thing that makes me change, my mind.
Kinda hard to explain, but girl, I'll try.
You need to sit down, this may take a while.
You see, she sorta looks, just like you.
She even smiles, just the way you do.
So innocent, she seemed, but I was schooled
I'm reminded when I look at you, but,

You remind of a girl, that I once knew.
See her face whenever I, I look at you.
You won't believe all of the things that she put me through.
This is why I just can't get with you.

Thought that she was the one for me,
Til I found out she was on her dream,
Oh, she was sexing everyone, but me.
This is why we could never be.

You remind of a girl, that I once knew.
See her face whenever I, I look at you.
You won't believe all of the things that she put me through.
This is why I just can't get with you.

I know it's so unfair to you,
But I'd be lingering the rest to you,
Wish I knew, wish I knew how to separate the two
You remind me, whoa...

You remind of a girl, that I once knew.
See her face whenever I, I look at you.
You won't believe all of the things that she put me through.
This is why I just can't get with you.

You made all the weird day anger go away. Really, I think we could have something.

Dear boyishly adorable bank clerk in the black suit and red shirt- I was grumpy from a bad morning but your cheerfulness and warmth made me giggly for the rest of the day. I know you probably don't go for my gender but I think I could love you.

Dear girl in asda who was probably dressed very fashionably for all I know, I apologise for thinking "way out of your league" when I saw you eyeing me. I'm sure you're a lovely person.

― p-p-p-p-paternoster, Wednesday, 8 March 2006 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

Dear very petite, very pretty Indonesian-looking woman I saw whilst commuting to work this morning...
The moment I saw you I wanted to pick you up, put you in my pocket and take you home where we would engage in various depraved acts of sexual debauchery. Unfortuanately...
a) I had to get to work
b) My house is a tip

and

c) Your mind was so obviously on other things (ie getting in out of the rain)

Oh well.

And before I forget.

Dear tall, leggy African receptionist girl.
Those legs should be wrapped around me.

on the day i was to stop smoking for good, i found out you were a smoker.

i gave up that plan rather quickly and i am pretty sure that i am smoking more now than i was before because i keep going down to the street in the hope that you'll be taking a break at the same time i am. i think if you start a nice conversation with me it will almost make up for the harm i am doing my lungs. you seem like the kind who would have a lanky hipster boyfriend with angular hair but maybe you and i could just be friends.

You are gorgeous, but you are also married and a father. I don't mind at all the fact that you're shorter than me. Please leap with me into another dimension, where you're not married or a father. Or at least let me stare at your face long enough to make it look ordinary so I can get over this stupid infatuation thing.

― Phoenix Dancing (krushsister), Tuesday, 8 August 2006 01:49 (nineteen years ago)

Dear realtor guy,

Hug me again the way you did late this afternoon and I might land one on you. And the more I stare at your face, the more I can see your beautiful eyes in my dreams. Why the fuck am I a sucker for pretty eyes? Where the hell is that other dimension anyway?

― Phoenix Dancing (krushsister), Thursday, 10 August 2006 04:57 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, dear indie couple that I see all the time on the Thameslink in the morning...

Boy with your sticky uppy hair and your skinny black jeans, girl with your wire-rimmed glasses and your long blonde hair - you're just so bloody cute.

Normally I hate PDAs on the train, it makes me sick. But you two are so sweet, and so clearly utterly in love with each other, that you lift up my heart and give me hope.

I love you both. Never stop looking at each other like that.

What is a PDA?

― the pinefox (the pinefox), Thursday, 10 August 2006 11:30 (nineteen years ago)

Public Display of Affection.

You know, like kissing or holding hands on the train.

Dear first floor of Foyles:

I want to marry you. Or even just live together. Please?

― We Collectively Dream In German (kate), Thursday, 10 August 2006 13:27 (nineteen years ago)

The Soho Foyles? Was in the Pillars Of Hercules right next to it last night.

xxxxpost: it's amazing how so few songs are written from the perspective of the singer about an entirely separate couple who are in love, and the beauty of observing this. I can only think of Joe Jackson's 'Geraldine And John' and SFA's 'Hermann Luvs Pauline'. You two songs, I love you both.

Dear missing Curtis brother on the train home the other night. You kept looking at me askance over the top of your book. Were you trying to figure out what I was reading, or did you notice me staring at your pointed nose? You got off at my station, and then disappeared. Please come back. I want to put my fingers in your hair.

Dear hipper-than-me redhead with the gold-rimmed aviators and the Parliament dangling between your lips that rose from its limp position when you grinned coyly at me from the bus stop, don't you see that our jeans are both mustard-colored? Don't you see that it means we're meant for each other? I wish I could have frozen that half-smile in a picture so that I could blow it up on my wall and tell Lenny Bruce and Dizzy Gillespie and Bob Dylan and all the other hipster archetypes to fuck off because YOU are the fucking coolest and I love you.

Dear blue haired gothy girl,

Christ. This is definitely a bad idea. If you had asked me a week ago if I was ever going to see you again I would have said "I doubt it." And yet here you are, arms wrapped around me, breathing softly onto my neck. Hours of sighs and lips and skin. I shouldn't feel this way about you. This was supposed to be cynical and physical and just detatched enough, because that's how you and I live. You and I, we get it. Emotions are for chumps.

And yet here you are, warm body and gorgeous eyes and constant complaints that I shouldn't be so beautiful. Neither should you.

This is definitely a bad idea.

Dear Stephen Malkmus,

I haven't been able to stop listening to "We Dance" since I first heard it a year ago. Every time I hear the "But I won't be there to leave you / Ahh-ah-ah", I close my eyes and everything bad melts away into something so indescribably beautiful. It has somehow managed to top the "Pull out the[ir] plugs, and snort up the[ir] drugs" finale from "Fillmore Jive", which is a fantastic feat.
Mr. Malkmus, I love you

Dear random visiting cousin of my drunken ex-suitemate, I love you (and probably would have followed you guys to the bar had I not been actually hosting the party).

Dear random activist boys I meet sometimes, I love you inside and out!

― emsk, Monday, 5 March 2007 11:33 (eighteen years ago)

i was the one looking nervous, then worried, then confused. (details deleted). dark blue jumper, bright blue t-shirt, black jacket, camouflage record bag. i nearly said hello but my confidence levels were pretty low most of the night... was sixth form discos all over again.

― koogs, Monday, 5 March 2007 12:07 (eighteen years ago)

hey I haven't seen you in the morning for awhile ms. impeccably dressed dark-eyed beauty. did you move? get a new job? how's it going anyway? regards, the guy with the grocery bags

― m coleman, Monday, 5 March 2007 12:12 (eighteen years ago)

did you put yr stuff in the cupboard? i had a rubbish start to the evening too but then it got better. the guy from the zebras selling his merch in the cupboard was friendly and funny and thought dalston was "like some kind of third world country"...

― emsk, Monday, 5 March 2007 12:43 (eighteen years ago)

i kept my stuff with me for a quick getaway. enjoyed the zebras, probably more than the orchids tbh, simple songs played well and lashings of tambourine.

Dear new temp in my office with the black hair and sexy eyes and knee-weakening smile, I can't not look at you, and it's most distracting. Please either declare your undying love to me or stop being so unbearably hott.

Dear student, just in case you think I fancy you, I don't, but thank you for being gracious and not looking too surprised when I mistook you for my colleague and told you your haircut was lovely. For the record, it is.

Dear College Presidential Candidate #3,

I love you. Please, please, please save this school. After interviewing you yesterday, I was all glow-y and smiley. It was like I had just been on a really awesome date.

I choose you, Candidate #3. I'll remain faithful and true. I'll build you the greatest popular music/academic library you have ever seen. That is, of course, if you can leave your memories of B3rkl33 on the east coast.

Dear friend of my sister's who lives here but I don't ever see until my sister comes to town,

dear girl from the bus,

you are v. cute. that one time our bus broke down and all 50 of us were stranded by the highway sucked, but it did give me the opportunity to comment on our situation. it was an innocent comment about the bus thing that (i'm suddenly worried) might sound like a pickup attempt! it was not. not that, if i was single, i wouldn't try to pick you up! but it was innocent.

Dear pretty girl who presumably works at the building about 400 metres from my building who I shared a very wonderful smile with,

I'm starting to feel like a real loser because I keep walking to the second-closest bus stop from my work on the off-chance that you'll be waiting there again so I can smile at you again and not have the courage to even take my headphones out, let alone talk to you. At least the weather's nice so the walk's mostly worth it, and getting on at that bus stop means I am like 20% more likely to get a seat on what may be the bumpiest ride on the planet. But I digress. Whats up?

dear girl in wife beater and levis walking north on milwaukee yesterday afternoon,

wow, you are something.

Dear redhead hairstylist,

I'll be damned if there wasn't a chemical reaction in the room when we met and I realized your fingers would be running through my hair. Sorry for hiding my wedding ring under the smock - I was only indulging my fantasy life. Thanks for tugging the smock away slightly and then saying "so what does your wife do?" Anyway, you were sweet and fun to talk to, even though you're probably the kind of girl I'd eventually think I didn't have much in common with. And thanks for the way you touched my temples. And good luck with the acting, and the singing!

― Hurting 2, Wednesday, 9 May 2007 03:33 (eighteen years ago)

dear subway crush,

why do i feel so crepey for thinking you are teh cuet?! i'm sorry, i try not to look at you too much and scare you, but it's not my fault we ride the same trains and work in the same building! also, can you stop being married?

this is more crush of shame than "i love you" perhaps...

-t

― tehresa, Wednesday, 9 May 2007 04:05 (eighteen years ago)

My hairstylist is DEFINITELY crush of shame.

Now I may wind up getting my next haircut sooner than I normally would. I guess that's a bad idea, but fuck.

Dear cute boy in Starbucks,

You have the amazing, almost triangular cheekbones and your French accent is tres cute and enchanting and the fox-like red-brown hair colour is something I never thought I'd find attractive, but on you it works.

BUT I always seem to develop mini-crushes on men who give me caffine, so I don't love you, but I'd much rather you serve me than the surly girl who always gets the order wrong.

Hope this is not damning you with faint praise,

A.

-- chicago kevin, Friday, April 20, 2007 9:51 AM (2 weeks ago)

i saw her again this morning! she had to do another trackstand at the light at western and jackson and since i was sitting in the first forward facing seat i had a perfect view of her ass through the windshield. then i thought "don't stare at her ass dude, that's rude." but then i also thought "it's fucking 7 in the morning and this is the best thing that's gonna happen to you all day so sieze the fucking moment pal." and went right back to staring.

also, she rides much faster than our bus does.

― chicago kevin, Wednesday, 9 May 2007 13:29 (eighteen years ago)

and what i noticed today since she wasn't wearing a hat is that she's a redhead which made me fall in love completely and forever.

each time? how long is that train ride?

― tehresa, Wednesday, 9 May 2007 22:56 (eighteen years ago)

oh man I seriously cannot get over how cute that girl I saw in the hospital cafeteria was. I think I had a dream about her a couple nights ago. I hope she wasn't a patient with some sort of terminal illness, or I'm gonna be really bummed! (not that I'd ever know... although I'd like to think that our brief eye contact at the cash register forged enough of a bond that I would at least sense some kind of disturbance in the force)

― bernard snowy, Wednesday, 9 May 2007 23:06 (eighteen years ago)

Man, this is the worst crush of shame I've had since the newspaper reporter a year or two ago. I wish I had a perfect photographic memory so I could at least have good fantasies about her and then get over it. Instead I'm a little too eagerly awaiting my next haircut.

― Hurting 2, Thursday, 10 May 2007 01:43 (eighteen years ago)

haha yeah that's the worst. that awkward period where you've seen someone and you remember that they were totally hot, but you can't remember what they actually look like so you're like "okay sure brain, I'll take your word for it"

― bernard snowy, Thursday, 10 May 2007 01:53 (eighteen years ago)

Oh! I can do that! (Well, I could when I last had a bike um er in first year of high school). I do have strong calves though!

Anyway,

dear people on my train,

I love none of you, you all take up too much space and stop jogging my elbow when I'm about to get a perfect combo on o!t!o! you bastards.

there was a really hot woman on the bus today. i've seen her before and she didn't look as good as she has in the past but damn, she's a knockout. i was (am) too hungover to talk to her however.

― chicago kevin, Friday, 11 May 2007 13:29 (eighteen years ago)

Chicago Kevin definitely needs to start a "I saw this hot woman on the bus today" blog.

― Pleasant Plains, Friday, 11 May 2007 17:51 (eighteen years ago)

IT ~~NEVER~~ RARELY EVERY HAPPENS ON THE WESTERN AVE BUS!

i have to be at work much earlier than the hot women because i only see them when i'm running late.

rarely every? ok, go with it.

― chicago kevin, Friday, 11 May 2007 18:14 (eighteen years ago)

dear local rock'n'roll boy,

i haven't seen you around in ages, but it's nice to see that the slight slope in your shoulder from playing guitar that i committed to memory oh-so-long ago is still there.

sorry if i weirded you out by following you down the street this morning, but you were going the same way and your excellent shoulder to hip ratio and fitted black hoodie made my walk to work less of a death march.

in lust we trust,

Dear person I said next to on the bus yesterday for five hours+:

You were an excellent travel-mate, thank you for not being the college girl up front who didn't shut her fucking mouth for five hours+ except for like two trips to the bathroom, because if you were her you'd be dead now and I'd be in the papers for all the wrong reasons. Also that clean white Tshirt thing is totally working. Sorry I hurried off at the end but I was brain-dead, hungover, and slightly freaked out by the strength of my impulse to curl up on your chest.

Best of luck with that beer shower,

Even if you can't play softball for shit.

Although for my birthday she did give me a picture of me and her together. Once upon a time i would have thought that meant tshe loves me back but these days..... fucked if i know.

― Uptoeleven, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 17:34 (eighteen years ago)

Well I tried to befriend mine and nothin'.

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 17:36 (eighteen years ago)

xpost dude, i'm feeling your pain. it was all hot and heavy, and i was planning a trip to the other side of the world to see him - until weasley ex weasled her way back in. now he's 'confused'. we're still best friends and that will never change, but as for anything more... i'm losing hope :(

― Rubyredd, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 17:38 (eighteen years ago)

my last.fm buddy lives in nz and sent me a message the day i signed up. we have been having very good, very interesting talks. and he likes the pumpkins!

but guy i am in love with can actually PLAY pumpkins songs (he taught himself just for me).

― Rubyredd, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 17:41 (eighteen years ago)

WOW. : )

My guy just has a hot moustache thing and doesn't know I exist. Hence random person. Unfortunately, I just did some stalking, and he is an ILXOR and therefore could be reading this. Probably not though, I hope.

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 17:45 (eighteen years ago)

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 17:51 (eighteen years ago)

yeah, do it anyway! nothing to lose - it's the interwebs!

i haven't completely given up hope on man-of-my-dreams-who-is-perfect-for-me. the thing is, i love him so much as a friend first and foremost that if getting back with his ex makes him happy, then i'll be happy for him. it will just take awhile for the pain of having my heart ripped out of my chest, and shoved down my throat, to subside.

but last.fm guy is very cool.

― Rubyredd, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 17:53 (eighteen years ago)

how do you know he's an ilxor?

He's in this

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 17:58 (eighteen years ago)

ohhhhh... when did he sign up to last.fm? maybe he doesn't hang out here anymore.

― Rubyredd, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 18:01 (eighteen years ago)

Well he hasn't actually been on last fm since april and I don't recognise the name, but I'm not such a regular here either.

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 18:01 (eighteen years ago)

SEND HIM A FRIEND REQUEST. NOW.

― Rubyredd, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 18:06 (eighteen years ago)

I have, he has not responded. Maybe I should send him a "OMG, I love Arthur Russell too!" message(?)

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 18:08 (eighteen years ago)

You share a few artists in common, including Yo La Tengo, PJ Harvey, and The Breeders.

― Rubyredd, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 18:20 (eighteen years ago)

I can't actually remember the last time I listened to PJ Harvey! Oh well, the internet: bringing people together!

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 18:23 (eighteen years ago)

indeed! i was just about to join ilxor group but then realised minor-crush-guy might click on it and find me here, talking about him. oh, teh shame!

how do you pronounce your name? (i mean your real name)

― Rubyredd, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 18:27 (eighteen years ago)

Aha, I know you, 'lejospopo'! You joined the board at virtually the same time as I did, although you've somehow managed to keep a lower profile than me during our time here.

Hey rubyredd, I thought I'd added you, but then I wasn't in your friend list and I was all: "Hey! How come?" And then I realised that I hadn't fully confirmed and now we are friends!

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 19:02 (eighteen years ago)

Not. Even. I think maybe he's abandoned his page anyway.

― I know, right?, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 19:35 (eighteen years ago)

i do that kinda thing. it's a whole "I love this and I love her and thus I want her to love this too" kinda thing. i also get drunk at a barbecue in my house, invite all the girls i have at one time or another had a dalliance with, then slur "I love you and even though I've slept with them and they might sleep with me again, I'd rather not sleep with anyone than sleep with anyone except you". real casanova me.

actually, when I think about it i've only every made mix cds for girls that I have been in love with. or thought I was. totalling four, therefore.

― Uptoeleven, Tuesday, 17 July 2007 20:04 (eighteen years ago)

xpost
the thing is, i really really love it when people go to the trouble to make mix cds or burn albums that they think i'd like. but also, i really love it when they get it RIGHT. me and guy hadn't even known each other all that long when he sent it to me, and i totally fell in love with it right away.

uptoeleven, never have all your girls in one place at one time whilst drunk. it can only ever lead to disaster. and you didn't answer my question: did you send me a myspace friend req?

― Rubyredd, Wednesday, 18 July 2007 00:27 (eighteen years ago)

see that's another reason why I make mix cds. i hope that if she loves the songs, and the way they're put together, then she'll love me more. i think i was at least partly successful with the most recent one.

sorry, didn't see that message of yours up yonder above. i don't have myspace so it cannae have been me. and hell yeah we took over.

― Uptoeleven, Wednesday, 18 July 2007 01:10 (eighteen years ago)

and the shins are featured fairly heavily in the garden state. natalie portman's character raves about them, and they do much of the soundtrack as well.

uptoeleven: mix cds are hot, even if you don't end up totally loving the music. my guy also sent me some books (with sappy inscriptions) that i also loved. some english guy sent me a myspaz friend req while we were on here earlier so i wondered if it was you.

― Rubyredd, Wednesday, 18 July 2007 01:23 (eighteen years ago)

fraid not. much as mr mookieproof doesn't have a point, I choose to see one and it's duly noted. sometimes you get caught up in talking to one or two people and forgets that the populace of the interweb can see it and pass derision upon one's words. but naff off anyway.

Not only does your red hair fill me with longing, but your astonishingly cute accent actually makes me want to cuddle you. And the small, skinny and pretty thing that you've got going on, along with the wicked sense of humour, works pretty well for me too.

I had the "Recommend me some Stoner Metal" thread open in tab when you had to borrow my screen to print a boarding pass. I didn't notice that I'd left the tab open until we were already well into the boarding pass printing Process, and I immediately got a little uncomfortable.

O noes I prob shouldn't be makin my stonerism apparent to a customer, I am in my uniform and all

But instead of glaring at me like some old lady or straightedge might, you grinnned knowingly! Awesome. And then you asked me if I liked Electric Wizard!! Marry me.

Dear cigarettes, it's been fun but I think the codependency of our relationship is detrimental. I love you, but I don't think it's working out.

Dear will to live, I know that romantic disappointment and self-loathing has driven you away, but I miss you and want you to come back.

Dear possibly underage vision of loveliness working the register at my local Pakistani joint, I have a seaside hotel room booked for us in my head for two weeks. Once my legal department clears you I'd like you to meet me out back so we can blow this pop stand. I love you.

Dear sullen yet gorgeous creatures on the morning bus, I mean you no harm. Appreciating you from afar is all I ask, that and maybe a glance now and then. I love you lots.

Dear stunning girlfriends of impossibly tall guys who all look like Andre Agassi for some reason, I know your ovaries are screaming to assimilate what he's got in his DNA. But I could show you a good time nonetheless.

Dear cafe girl who looked at me like I was covered in slime, I'm willing to overlook that because your ass in motion is absolutely mesmerizing.

Rather than simply bury my head into the ridiculously dense maths tome I was reading in an effort not to gaze at you in helpless adoration,
I should have asked you to join me in a visit to the theatre to see Henry V at the beginning of next month.
Sorry about that. It was rude of me.
Not that I suppose you'd care.

Dear everyone who rides my bus,
You make me uncomfortable by asking if I want to get off at your stop or go on a date altho you are twice my age. Um, but, uh...city of Las Cruces, I love your affordable and efficient public transportation.

Dear Brakhage,
Jesus Christ I can fucking relate. To the first two anyway.

Dear little girl who was giving a "seat" to each of her stuffed animals in the waiting room,
You are awesome.

dear EK lookalike in front of City Hall on my way from buying bread at the City Seed Farmer's Market at about 1, if you weren't supposed to be in Cincinnati today, I would have sworn it was you and could understand that you ran your hand through your hair because you knew you were recognized - O Fame! - but otherwise maybe my notion of beauty is quite conventional and you are recognized every day for what you are

Dear cute girl sitting across from me in the library,

I like your glasses, your smile, your dark blonde hair, and your blue shirt/pink sweater combination. It makes studying much more bearable. You also don't seem to mind that I've been glancing at you occasionally, which is good.

Let's go have some diet Snapple (since that's what you seem to like) and talk about literature. Also, do you want to see The Third Man with me this weekend? I bet you'd be up for that.

lol gf even reads this thread sometimes for fun

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 14 January 2008 18:38 (seventeen years ago)

Sorry, Hoos, but I freq wonder the same thing about peeps posting here: when I'm dating someone and I'm happy, other people don't even look attractive to me, or they do only if/because they remind me of the loved one (not to say, The Loved One). Maybe my brain is just inherently loyal/self-convincing...?

― Laurel, Monday, 14 January 2008 18:40 (seventeen years ago)

That's cool and I do envy you a bit, but that's not necessarily true in the case of gf & myself. We regularly discuss our passing fancies (her: "Really cute Colombian guy on the bus today. We talked about Cervantes." me: "Was he nerd-cute or mysterious-cute?" etc), and she has this thread bookmarked precisely so she can keep up with mine.

Having the freedom to talk about it keeps us honest and as a side-effect helps us trust each other more. We're very happy together, and have been for four years now.

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:13 (seventeen years ago)

Nice save, man.

― Bill Magill, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:15 (seventeen years ago)

Well, I've never been with anyone for four years so maybe it's something that develops.

― Laurel, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:18 (seventeen years ago)

I can say that my ex-gf went from "wow why is a girl this hot dating me" to "why did i find her attractive?" after we broke up, so I have seen this effect you're talking about to some degree.

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:20 (seventeen years ago)

id say its healthy/normal to find other people attractive even when yr crazy in love!

― 69, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:22 (seventeen years ago)

finding attractive: fine
fancying them: ehhhhh

― tehresa, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:25 (seventeen years ago)

British probably use "fancy" differently than I'm intending it? I just mean it as "attractive," but was using "fancy" to keep in with Jess's OG post at the top.

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:28 (seventeen years ago)

Eh, depending on the length of the relationship, I think even crushes on people who aren't your primary are perfectly normal and healthy. I'd be more concerned if someone who was in a long term relationship told me they'd never been attracted to or had a sm. crush on someone other than their partner. We're human, it happens etc.

― ENBB, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:34 (seventeen years ago)

^^^ yeah yeah agreed!

― 69, Monday, 14 January 2008 19:37 (seventeen years ago)

ok, i guess, like laurel, i have never had the right relationship in which this would not be a problem. it makes sense, obv it's natural to find someone attractive, but the flirting with them has always pushed my buttons.

You may or may not be be pleased to know that my friends that had met you a few years ago were very much in agreement that the rest of your face had now caught up with your nose, leaving you quite quite beautiful.

Dear girl behind the counter in the bakery in Crouch End, I love you.

You had me from the moment I overheard you explaining '8-bit' as a genre to the guy in his forties hitting on you, who had just enquired as to your music tastes. The extent to which you humoured him when he offered to bring you his collection of unwanted 80's 7" singles was completely endearing.

The ham & watercress roll was delicious too.

You were all such fun to hang out with last weekend, thanks for giving me tips on getting sailing jobs and forgetting the words to Irish drinking songs to keep the neighbors awake with me. What do you say we sail to the Arctic and found a new colony together, just like old times? I would certainly bear several of your children with pleasure.

Oh no, they were practicing safety drills on small boats, not the ship itself...I'm not sure when the ship gets moved from Collins Barracks to the docks, but they're doing some maintenance on it starting this week, so I think it's still there. (Also, if you go this or next week and it's there, you will get to talk to the people doing the maintenance, and they are awesome.)

Dear very slow old man with a crutch for whom I held open a door,

You cracked me up when you said, "I've never had a pretty tatooed lady open a door for me before!" with a big smile on your face. It was endearing and hilarious. You really made my day.

Yours,

Abbott

― Abbott, Friday, 15 August 2008 21:21 (seventeen years ago)

Speaking as one who has had pretty tattooed ladies open doors for me before, I can assure you that the day-making was almost certainly mutual.

All the pretty receptionists in the hundred or so companies I have interviewed with in the past few weeks (esp. the one on Wednesday who bore an uncanny resemblance to Rhianna) you almost make unemployment worth it. Shame it has to end.

― Upt0eleven, Friday, 15 August 2008 21:27 (seventeen years ago)

I told him, "Happy August 15th, sir!" In reply.

Dear redhead in the "Cheers Dublin!" shirt,

My ex girlfriend used to wear that shirt, and consequently I kinda hate it, but I'm willing to look past it cause you are ridiculously cute and your Buddha tattoo is crazy awesome.

Your beautiful porcelain skin with the dusting of lovely freckles across the bridge of your nose and that extraordinary mane of waist length auburn hair made me feel all funny inside.

Dear pixie looking girl with the elfin hair cut that's as white as snow, both you and your dress sense would be better suited to a sixties French film.
I'm quite fond of you.

the other day I told a random girl on the internet that I loved her. I found her blog and she was so chill and so pretty and then halfway thru I realized she was also 17, so I made some self-conscious jokes about being a pedo, and she laffed. we're perfect for each other :)

dear beautiful big-eyed redhead girl at party last night wearing what appeared to be an oversized tshirt that had been cut up into a loose-fitting midriff-exposing tunic: you look like an elf. an elf I want to fuck.

dear shapely librarian: you are not actually a stranger — we've made small talk a few times, and you might even know my name by now from having run my card so often — I guess what I'm saying is, now that you've seen me at my worst (racking up unconscionable late fees; checking out de sade), if you still wanna give this thing a try, I think we can make it work.

dear hijab-wearing french-canadian teacher of a summer class I'm taking on music and warfare in the middle ages: it has been one day, and I am pretty sure our whole class is in love with you. I hope that your husband will not object to the historically-accurate chansons I am now composing in praise of your beauty.

― bernard snowy, Thursday, 16 June 2011 22:39 (fourteen years ago)

I haven't seen you since last week, but I am still crushing on you majorly, cute girl I first saw at the coffee shop. I know who you are, and we might even have some shared friends, but I don't think I've ever said more than three words to you. Your beauty is beyond words and that explains why I have none when I am around.

I shall write this in the form of a poem:

I fell in love with the girl at the convenience store
Decided I didn't love her any more
And then decided to reverse that decision

To protect the guilty I'll call her "Nancy"
She was short-changing me when she took my fancy
By malice or misprision

I of course complained vociferously
And she gave me a look which seemed to say
"I'll fix it, but add some free derision!"

As she gave me the coins she touched my hand
And I fell in love, please understand
With a shockingly powerful physical passion

She became my girlfriend, stole my stuff
I kicked her out (that bit was tough)
Then I fell into a deep depression

I was wrong about being wrong about you
My delusions were shattered then embraced anew
My mistakes were mistakes, please hear my confession

I've fallen out of love with falling out with you
Doing the right thing was the wrong thing to do
I've decided to reverse my decision

But, wait, I'm back in love with falling out with you
Doing the wrong thing was the wrong thing to do
I've decided to revise the revision of my decision

Come back to me, I'll make it worth your while
I'll let you keep the change you stole
And compound interest in addition

In reality our whole "relationship" took place during the 24 seconds it took her to give me the wrong change, register my complaint, gracelessly acknowledge her error, and hand me the correct amount with a grunt. But what a grunt!

― Grampsy, Saturday, 18 August 2012 06:05 (thirteen years ago)

a woman with a wee baby in a sling got on my subway train home tonight. there was something about her where she seemed like the nicest person ever -- the ppl who had seats all jumped up at the same time to offer her a spot, and when she sat down seriously everyone in our portion of the car was looking at her and the baby and smiling. one bluff dude took off his headphones to ask if the baby was a girl or boy.

they got off after two stops, which was too bad, but i still love them

I was at Costco tonight, and they had these surprisingly nice jackets on sale for only $30, so I tried one on, and there was this thin, somewhat pretty although plainly dressed woman with a hijab, maybe in her mid 30s there with a daughter who looked maybe 12 or so. Anyway I was trying on the jacket and the woman asked me what size it was (I figured for her husband or something) and I told her it was a medium, and then because the only mirror was partially blocked and I couldn't see the bottom of the jacket, I sheepishly asked her if the length seemed good, and she said, "Yes, it looks very good. Very handsome" and smiled at me in a slightly flirtacious way. And I actually blushed a little and said thanks, and then a few seconds later I walked away. Something about the whole thing was more exciting than it probably should be, maybe just because of all the cultural weight that gets put on the hijab, giving the ridiculous idea that a woman wearing one would never flirt or would be offended by flirting.

Dear redhead hairstylist,

I'll be damned if there wasn't a chemical reaction in the room when we met and I realized your fingers would be running through my hair. Sorry for hiding my wedding ring under the smock - I was only indulging my fantasy life. Thanks for tugging the smock away slightly and then saying "so what does your wife do?" Anyway, you were sweet and fun to talk to, even though you're probably the kind of girl I'd eventually think I didn't have much in common with. And thanks for the way you touched my temples. And good luck with the acting, and the singing!

years ago i saw a face that i still think about from time to time. she had the most extraordinary deep eyes, which this bit in the sexual codes of the europeans reminds me of.

A boy who went to Dijon would write about it on his blog or to his friends: that he saw a girl in a café with a bowl of whipped chestnut cream and a bowl of blackcurrants and a cup of espresso, and because his skin was the color of whipped chestnut cream and his eyes the color of blackcurrants and his hair the color of espresso
