Awesome awesome musical.

Is it weird that I either don't dream or at least never remember my dreams? I know most people seem to remember them and have them frequently.

Ah, right. I knew about most of that apart from the pie part.

Heh, now I'm imagining you as a pie. Tasty pie :P
Very strange mind I have. Yeah, I'm rather weird.

Probably not. What I've noticed is that you see when something's there, but not when it's not. In other words, you notice people talking about their dreams, but you don't notice when people aren't talking about their dreams because they don't remember them. So there's probably a lot of people who don't dream a lot and/or don't remember them, but they're just not vocal of the fact – myself being one of them.

Mm... people pie.
I like people.
I also like pie.
It's fantastic.

...

I've never actually seen Burton's Sweeney Todd, or Nightmare... hell, the only Burton movies I have seen I didn't know he'd done them. I'm just failtastic like that. I think I need to find and watch the above two... The quirky goth thing is great anyway, so... hrm.

When it comes to Tim Burton, I like his films, but I hate that art-school student thing that he attempts to cultivate. Listen, I'm a weird guy, but I don't try to express that by outward appearance and interview mannerisms.

He makes good movies, but he is getting old. The Goth thing tends to die out when you hit your twenties. Its all well and good in high school, I guess, but really, it has to end sometime.

I'm more of a Kevin Smith kinda person, talk about a clash of personality!

Of course I've read Mr. Pratchett's books. I don't think I'd be allowed on the internet otherwise. Hmm, perhaps I'll pick up Gaiman book at work tomorrow. Damn libraries making me get things out.

@Phase. Yes. It is awesome, I love dystopian/post-apocalyptic settings like THIS amazing comic. Which I read in one sitting the night before the dream.

@Zeratul: That one is the only dream I can remember from... the last...forever pretty much.

Gaimans great, as is good Omens. Personally I've only read a few pages of like 1 pratchet book aside from good omens. But Neil Gaiman's awesome. I highly recommend, Neverwhere (my favorite of his), Coroline, the Sandman comics, and Smoke and Mirrors, a book of his short stories.

Oh good lord. I seem to have inadvertently released the pent up Gaiman fanboys/girls in the playground. I heartily apologise.

Released? Pent up? We've always been like this! Just now we're talking about it. It'll pass, as do all topics of conversation.

Hmm. Zeful, for not knowing who Terry Pratchett is, Zeratul, for not having read any of his books other than Good Omens, and Mockingbyrd7 for obvious reasons.
*puts paper away again*

Ahhh, nothing like a round of shooting people in the face. Very cathartic, especially when I finally got that one guy...no ducking behind the wing of the jet for you, Mr. Grey...this bullet's going right through your temple...

...anyway.

I've got American Gods sitting on my shelf, queued up to be read right after I finish Idlewild and Everfree (Nick Sagan-yes, that Sagan, very good stuff).

I knew I was going to like my drama teacher when I show up for our first lesson wearing a shirt with Jack's face plastered on it and she said she loved the movie.
But then she left at Christmas.

American gods, a Raymond E Feist book, magician A exalted rpg novel, damn that ones bad, game designers don’t make for good writers at all. The book of mark of chaos and the old kingdom trilogy re-reading in English.

If banana phone doesn't get it out, read this.

Alternatively, Birdhouse In Your Soul might get it out.
