I went to the doctor today and it turns out I have the leading cause of death in the nation and it's highly contagious. Influenza. Ugh.

It appears we are on different sides of this issue. My side has cake though.

You could always move to the UK with your dad. But we'd miss you here.

I wish I could find the quote, or knew off the top of my head, but Bruce Willis said something to the effect of, "Why should we trust an actor's viewpoint on anything just because they're on TV?" Doesn't make them any smarter than anyone, but often dumber. Canadian radio is decent and you can get an English translation of Der Spiegel on the internet that has some good reporting.

The first time we did this scene at The I-Rock, we used milk chocolate Hershey Kisses. But for last night's show and tomorrow's show we're using dark chocolate 'cuz it's more goth. lol

There's only one man strong enough who can hold all this together ... MAGNUS!!!

My buddy Smooth is friends with him. They had a few gigs together back when Smooth was living in San Diego. They kept trying to bring me out for a show but it just never worked with scheduling. Yeah, Haydn is pretty cool.

I started a fight last night at Circus Obscene ... it was great. And I'll be starting the exact same fight this Saturday at The Works for Sinister Circus Dementale. My scene kicks ass! Literally. PS - Actually, Mantindome started the fight. I just finished it.

I like my goth better than your goth, which is one of the many reasons I'm probably never going to Deadline.

So if I am right, then who is left?

Yeah, come one Kirk. You can't join then not post. You're making me look bad. Now stop being a douche. lol

Yes! Wait, I mean no.

I guess I'm on the wrong forums then. It appears I'm not welcome anywhere.

IMO, it's just not Steampunk without a little bit of sepia somewhere. A brass accessory should fix that though.

Earth tones.

Well, here is the rant that I promised. And the fact that this topic is in the music forum adds to what I'm saying. In another topic, there was a bit of heated discussion on how one club is better than another because the former is all about the music and the latter just has silly little fetish shows. So does that mean the only thing goth is music? I thought it also included fashion, art, literature, film ... a whole culture and mind set. A while ago, JynxxxedAngel found a site that has a whole bunch of goth stereotypes including Corp Goth, Victorian Goth, Medieval Goth, Steampunk Goth, etc. Well, one I scored highly as was the Fetish Goth. That is what brought me to City Club and DGN. Not the music, but hot chicks in vinyl, floggers, bondage, etc. Yes, I do enjoy music but my tastes aren't even goth though they're related. I like Industrial, EBM, Darkwave, Synthpop ... but honestly, if a club plays nothing but NIN, Ministry, and Ramstein all night I could care less as long as my fetish element is there. I'm a kinky person that enjoys exploring multiple aspects of BDSM in the bedroom. I have multiple paraphilias (though more as an interest and not so much a psychological condition). One thing I love about DGN is we're an open community and I can discuss my kinks and not have to feel ashamed about them and hide in the closet. But honestly I was very offended by the music snobs who were putting down my culture because it's not as goth as their music. Fuck, I'd rather watch a flogging scene set to Katy Perry than a bunch of people dancing to Bauhaus. Does that mean I'm not goth? Does that mean I'm not as good as the music snobs? Recently, in another thread, a DJ stated that DJing is so easy pretty much anybody could do it and he'd be willing to teach anyone who asked. Well, as a fetish performer I would like to say that what I do is incredibly difficult and not everyone can do it even with years of training and practice. And hell, I won't even do a flesh pull or suspension because I can't even take the piercing. But does that mean I'm better than the music snobs? No. We're all just as goth or ungoth as the next. We're just one of the many dozens of sub-genres that exist within the gothic community and I think we need to start showing each other a bit more respect. We are more alike than we are different.

I just noticed a familiar name down at the bottom of DGN for Newest Member: Mantindome. This is my and Maria's (Ivy Cat) friend Kirk. He'll be doing scenes with Oblivion on March 5th and 7th. So, say hi, make him feel welcome, and I'm sure somebody will post the obligatory thingamajigger surveyish questionnaire dealie.

I almost ranted in another thread earlier but decided not to. Now that this topic is here, I may go ahead and add my rant tomorrow when I have time to type it all out.

Well I don't see any horns.

But only two things come from Texas: steers and queers.

Hey, look who I found and dragged back onto DGN.

He didn't pull a pair of fingernail clippers out of his pocket to snip a hangnail, did he?

I like my women like I like my Scotch ... aged 16-18 years.
