One of the studies used both the rape and fire extinguisher scene from the Irreversible movie (although I've had no idea until now what movie they were from). Both of them from start to finish.<br /><br />You're right; I knew IMMEDIATELY what film you were referring to the moment you said "fire extinguisher". <br /><br />Those two scenes scarred me for life. LIFE. <br /><br />There's also a film I watched when I was little; it was a foreign film, but I vividly remember this woman being gang raped. It was brutal and very, very detailed. I remember nothing else of the film, but I had nightmares for many nights afterwards. *shudder* Over 10 years later and I still remember it as though it was yesterday...<br /><br />Point: you're probably stuck with it forever D:_illuminatednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6200047450050972994.post-90196596795883316942009-11-18T12:30:03.217-05:002009-11-18T12:30:03.217-05:00Hey Girl.

In case you haven't noticed I have an odd sense of humour myself. I mean how many blogs out there can claim they've compared a Kevin Spacey film to a sanitary napkin? I guess what I'm trying to say is, keep the dry wit coming - I'll assign it the appropriate tone.<br /><br />I know what you mean when you say that some of your blogs could be considered dull. I have one of those myself, and y'know what...it IS dull! Even for me, and it's my life! <br /><br />"Blogstalker"...I like it.

We're good to go.<br /><br />You weren't entirely clear about the context in which your mother used that particular phrase; was she directing it at your <i>blog</i>? Because, really, it's better than the alternative. (Is now a good time to mention that I have a deranged sense of humour that doesn't always translate well onto a computer screen, but that I'm often unwilling to give in and emoticon the hell out of a comment or a post...? I'm not to be taken seriously, under any circumstances. Ask Mr. Joel Crary. He's known me for years.)<br /><br />There's actually an entry, somewhere in here, about the Levels Of Blogdom in my universe (very much like the Biosafety Levels at the CDC, really). I'd been getting a few miffed emails from people asking why they weren't "allowed" to know where my ultra-private blog is located, so I had to explain myself publicly. When people realized that it's private because it's full of details that would be dull as dishwater to anyone who doesn't need to know about my day-to-day life, they stopped asking. So while that's the one I update several times a week, it's not exactly what I'd call a compelling read for most!<br /><br />Back to <i>your</i> blog: You'll probably find comments popping up from me here or there in response to old entries now, because once I find something entertaining to read, I rather like to give it a proper wade-through. Figured I should say as much, lest the word "BLOGSTALKER!" flash across your mind. (I somehow doubt it would, as I don't think it's an actual word. Well, IT IS NOW.) Besides, you have a readership of at <i>least</i> five, if you count yourself, and two of us have no reason to suck up to you, so you can rest assured that, when I say my dime's worth of ginger ale was well spent, I actually mean it. I also have friends whose fiancé(e)s <i>don't</i> read their blogs, so another silver lining? We can <i>already</i> accurately predict your marriage will be far more successful than theirs.<br /><br />I now demand that you direct me to the entry which somehow sent that demented Hobbit-loving Googler your way.~E~https://www.blogger.com/profile/04489311991025150656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6200047450050972994.post-3688955614186509812009-09-24T19:33:22.112-04:002009-09-24T19:33:22.112-04:00Heh...sorry if the disciples of decency came knock...Heh...sorry if the disciples of decency came knocking on your blog door on my accord.

There are a lot of days that I swear the only people reading what I write are me, my fiancee, and my mom...then again, last time I saw my mom, she used the term "too clever by half" far too often for my liking.<br /><br />Do I owe you a dime for the amount of beverage I cost you?<br /><br />Anyway, thanks for the add to your blogroll - I do hope you keep reading - and sorry to hear you lost your mojo.

When the first entry I see makes me spit out my drink, that's a gold star on the Ehch Test. And then, of course, you added that you <i>like my style</i>, so I'm now your biggest fan. (I think we're switching roles here...)<br /><br />And you've miscounted, I see. I have <i>eighteen</i> zillion blogs. (In truth, it's because I don't like the idea of another PrettyH out there. It's an only child thing.) This one's been a bit on the quiet side lately, since the passing of a friend and the need to address it so publicly, but generally, if I'm about to be suddenly interesting, this is where I'd do it. You'd be amazed at how many hits a DAY I get from people searching for random factoids on German lesbians, Purity Balls, and serial killers; apparently I <i>am</i> interesting, to some readers. Not sure I'd want to meet them in a dark alley, but...okay! [ http://prettyh.blogspot.com/2008/12/freaky-friday-serial-killers-galore.html = yikes ]<br /><br />Anyway. I'm adding you to my blogroll. You're a Chucky P fan who knows his stuff, movie-wise, and keeps a gold-starred blog. I'm sold.~E~https://www.blogger.com/profile/04489311991025150656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6200047450050972994.post-60293448867036749782009-09-24T17:19:40.970-04:002009-09-24T17:19:40.970-04:00So there's me, a slut for comments, noticing t...So there's me, a slut for comments, noticing that Joel's FIGHT CLUB conversation just scored me another quickie.<br /><br />So yeah, sexual metaphors aside - thanks for reading my space/leaving me a comment.<br /><br />I like your style and would quite like to keep up with your stuff...but can't seem to decide which of your seventeen zillion blogs I should add to my reader.<br /><br />Care to suggest one?

I met Martin via the Roadshow when I was 17 and lately we had marveled at how that connection had carried us over 20 years. I also keep thinking I will wake up one day and he will be here. I can't quite comprehend that there will never be another conversation in the dj booth, another hug goodbye as I head back down to the big, bad USA, another string of emails. I cry still at the oddest moments for him and for the loss of what could have been a great new chapter in his life. <br /><br />I wish you all the best on the book. I will be in line for a copy when you are done. <br /><br />I also have my creative juices flowing again: I have been working on a cabaret of some of the great alternative music from the 80's that we all love, as well as one of Canadian music that most down here have never heard. It has been on the back burner for a while now but after Martin's death I pulled out all the material. It seems like a fitting way to honour a man I adored and who taught me so much. I will miss him forever. <br /><br />Thank you for your words. I look forward to the book.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01499460701864836921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6200047450050972994.post-31211368036351324732009-07-24T06:56:51.662-04:002009-07-24T06:56:51.662-04:00My Heatho:

The kindest, most caring person I will ever know.<br /><br />Knowing how you felt and still feel about Martin I can say that your words about him and your friendship with him are absolutely heartwrenching. You manage to capture the essence of your relationship with him. A<br />friendship I had hoped would continue for many more years.<br /><br />I did, indeed have a soft spot in my heart for Martin. He was a sweet man.<br /><br />I hope you share your thoughts and your words about Martin with some<br />other people who loved him. Everyone had a different relationship with him. That was one of Martin's many gifts. He was true to so many. Your eloquence and your tenderness would be appreciated by those who<br />truly knew him. Share your thoughts and grieve together.<br />The grieving process is a long and lonely one. Share his memories, his love, his laugh, his music and his warmth. <br /><br />I miss him too.<br /><br />Thank you for writing your beautiful words.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462779828237098322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6200047450050972994.post-37864009305446086562009-07-23T19:09:42.157-04:002009-07-23T19:09:42.157-04:00Whatever I can do to help you finish your novel I ...Whatever I can do to help you finish your novel I will do *hugs*Rachelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6200047450050972994.post-41999343964762599862009-07-23T18:18:49.146-04:002009-07-23T18:18:49.146-04:00I'm sitting here in tears.
