Wonder how closely it would intersect with a "getting gothic" mix: I'm fascinated by the cross-overs between these two clusters of ideas and associations. But I am reconciled, in advance, to not recognising much of the music...This old world is a new worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11567163294720510335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21165575.post-1154282434995978312006-07-30T14:00:00.000-04:002006-07-30T14:00:00.000-04:00I know I have better things to do with my time, bu...I know I have better things to do with my time, but I had a rush of inspiration just now.

Give me a mixtape to convince little old ladies to buy my shit!"<BR/><BR/>"...the soundtrack to me having my ass kicked by a robot who gets more girls than me."<BR/><BR/>"Songs to help me feel righteous when I'm eating eggs for the 13th straight day but at least I didn't take that PR job with ClearChannel"<BR/><BR/>And this pathological beautiful request:<BR/><BR/>"I'm really creepy. I spend hours and hours inventing aliases on LiveJournal and other sites, creating fake conversations among my aliases. Time has no meaning for me, so everyone I've ever come into contact with is still being written about. Including dead people. I'm an old hippie with surprisingly hip taste. And I'm always on the internet. Always. I'd be great if I wasn't such a weirdo. Don't give me your real name or I'll never leave you alone."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
