Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Another Freaking Latitude Update

Okay, next time I get permission to archive an eleven part story?

I'm freaking coding as I go.

This is not in any way good fan fiction, but it's so bizarre I had to share it. And yes, all of this guy's stories involve wrapping Roy Orbison in saran wrap.

Roy Orbison walks inside my house and sits down on my couch. We talk urbanely of various issues of the day. Presently I say, 'Perhaps you would like to see my cling-film?'

I'm not even clicking on it. I'm just going to continue my research into Spike's car. Yay, the Internet.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You have to admit, the stories have a certain charm.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Man, that writer makes *me* feel normal. And that ain't easy to do.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I am sooooooo not going there.

Nuh-uh.

Bloody hell, no.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

You know, these are not bad. They are off-kilter in an aggressively surreal way but also rather endearingly matter-of-fact about the whole absurdity. There's a dollop of pathos in there, even.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Um.

I really like them. Not in a sexy way, but in a this is completely and totally off the wall way - and weirdly charming. With Jetta the tortoise. It's like - has anyone seen the Czech film Conspirators of Pleasure by Jan Svankmajer? It's bemusing, and I don't find the the people's obsessions sexy myself, but it's weirdly disarming and almost sweet, in a way. Just so odd, and vulnerable, and off the wall.

(and they aren't porn - don't fear clicking. They're just very odd.)

I don't think they're especially bad -- they're just so weird. Roy Orbison! Cling-film! Turtles! And the writer asks for links to other stories about wrapping pop stars in cling-film! It's like RPF from a planet where Saran Wrap has replaced sex.
