Hi there, Fern! I'm sure I've seen your pixels around here before!
Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

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

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Hi Fern!
Yay, lurkers posting!

Hi Fern!I haven't seen Local Hero, but I like all the other movies you listed a lot, so I'll have to check it out.

Hi, Fern!

At last to guess, instead of always knowing.
Hello, fellow-lurker Fern! The Name of the Rose was one of the twenty books I carried around the world with me, and Nick Cave is probably my favourite artist. Mostly I read science fiction though, and in my case Nick Cave is surrounded by, like, Depeche Mode and Blondie and The Smiths (shut up, I will be sixteen forever), but nice intersection anyway!
Thank you for the warm welcomes way back when, everyone. In particular: thanks Ouise, and you should totally let me know when you're next in Montréal; I'll definitely try to muster up the courage for a coffee or glass of wine. And sooper seekrit message for megan walker: Montréal would be a great city for an F2F. Maybe by the next time it rolls around to the East Coast I'll be properly decloaked and can pimp it for real.
- patiently waiting for new delurkers to declare their love for, say, The Sisters of Mercy and Gene Wolfe, so I can pipe up again*

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Welcome, Fern! You remind me, I have Casablanca and Maltese Falcon patiently waiting on the shelf for me to watch them again.
Shambles, I like Sisters of Mercy... (note gratuitous use of ellipsis)

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Good morning Fern, Shambles, and all you other lurkers and non-lurkers. I can't wait to see who else reveal themselves today.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Welcome, Fern! Your town sounds fascinating (in my mind, I picture the sex shop and the gun store on either side of the amusement park museum). I've said this like 23 times already, but I seriously LOVE this thread. Yay lurkers!
Kate! You moved to Nashville! That is crazy because next time I have to go home I'M GOING TO SEE YOU.
Dude! Any idea when you'll be down this way again? Around the holidays, maybe? WE SHALL MAKE PLANS.
