This is the last refuge of the twee. Ask about each others' days here. Talk about your socks. Huggle. Claim the twee!

Isn't half of ILX like this anyway?

― Ed (dali), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 05:17 (twenty years ago)

No, it's not, actually.

Oh good. I can talk about my twee kinky perversions here.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 05:44 (twenty years ago)

twee + kinky = twinky?

― 100% WJE (Jody Beth Rosen), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 05:47 (twenty years ago)

It doesn't involve confectionery. Well it might do.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 05:50 (twenty years ago)

twee= emo for intellectuals

when i was in jinghong, china (in rural tropical southern china), i randomly met some british dude in some cafe who paid for his trip to asia by selling his sarah records 1-100 collection in its entirety. i love the sugargliders

― phil-two (phil-two), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 07:46 (twenty years ago)

So what are Sarah Records up to these days?

> i randomly met some british dude in some cafe who paid for his trip to asia by selling his sarah records 1-100 collection in its entirety

looking at the prices yesterday, the bottom would appear to have fallen out of that market. um, maybe not. a lot of it has only one bid for about a fiver, a lot of it doesn't even get that. sarah 2 is going well though (£28 and counting - more than i paid for mine) as is 3/4 (touching £20 with 5 days left).

ha, that's funny. someone is linking to my website...

and it's the yellow / green sleeve i don't have...

― koogs (koogs), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 08:04 (twenty years ago)

hmm this was like 2001. maybe he the sarah records story was a cover for his drug smuggling business

― phil-two (phil-two), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 08:06 (twenty years ago)

(sarah packed it in when they got to 100 a decade ago now. matt went on to do shinkansen but i don't know what's happening there anymore. he now writes / edits The Smoke magazine. clare worked at kpmg last i heard.)

― koogs (koogs), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 08:07 (twenty years ago)

the trembling blue stars just played here in nyc on friday with pas/cal but i forgot to go

― phil-two (phil-two), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 08:10 (twenty years ago)

i wanted to go to that but i couldn't for some reason that i now forget.

― 100% WJE (Jody Beth Rosen), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 08:11 (twenty years ago)

I love you, Phil.
And I was listening to Dressy Bessy yesterday.
And then a few weeks ago, I though, "I can't find my Aislers Set albums; I wonder if Phil has them."

WILLPIE!!! I think I do have one of your Aislers Set albums. and also I have like three copies of apples in stereo - "fun trick noisemaker". one might be yours. also, i have a pair of underwear that dont fit me either, so maybe thats yours too.

― phil-two (phil-two), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 16:56 (twenty years ago)

oh lord my computer randomlly started playing the pooh sticks while i was reading this

― jive session (elwisty), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 17:53 (twenty years ago)

I KNEW IT!
Are those underpants too big? Cuz if they're too small for you, they're not mine. Huge wang and all that, I mean.

I am listening to one of the orchids' reissues here at work. Also, I love cats. I mean, they are so cute it makes me high.

OMG KEN!

― molly d (mollyd), Thursday, 21 September 2006 16:04 (nineteen years ago)

i know! it's been so long. what are you up to these days?

aw *cuddles* (to the spirit of the thread)

― ken c (ken c), Thursday, 21 September 2006 16:25 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, I've brewed some tea. Would anyone like?

(do you guys think that Bodum teapots are twee? I couldn't decide.)

― A-ron Hubbard (Hurting), Thursday, 21 September 2006 16:40 (nineteen years ago)

Far too long! I'm a librarian now, and I live in Nashville (hence the visit/dancing with Tim H). It's great here!

I think librarianship might be a twee profession.

What have you been up to!?

― molly d (mollyd), Thursday, 21 September 2006 19:28 (nineteen years ago)

Your search - tweepot - did not match any documents

― Mädchen (Madchen), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:30 (nineteen years ago)

I have a Bodum tea pot. I also have another tea pot which was given to me by a member of Camera Obscura. Do I win some sort of twee prize?

― ailsa (ailsa), Thursday, 21 September 2006 20:37 (nineteen years ago)

Haha, I have FIVE teapots. Well, my wife has five teapots. The tweest one is probably the little Chinese jade-looking one with matching twee lil' cups.
