GLITTER JUNKIE Can't find my book — very nice book of all the things I've lost. I miss my mind the most. Indeed.
STERLING ROSE Have you ever posted a letter, and the second you hear the letter hit the bottom of the box, you regretted even writing it? Oh yes!
THE SNORKMISTRESS Anyone remember when Chris Evans was on a programme called Breakfast Cereals with a talking tomato? Or is it just a distorted flashback? Distorted flashback.
IF 'ZINERS WERE LIGHTBULBS:
| WLW: | 100 watt, perfectly bright and strong bulb. |
| Davord: | Strong and overpowering, hurts when you look at it. |
| Possum: | Black bulb, depresses everyone 'cos, even with the lights on, you can't see anything. |
| Norbex: | Energy saver, weak and dim. |
| Me: | The really long one you find in kitchens that's ugly and only attracts flies. |
Twisted Trolley
What about one that flashes?
ACTUALLY, LET'S NOT GO THERE
AFTERGLOW
Yes, I checked my dictionary, and the colour orange is so-called because it is the colour of oranges.
The first literary reference to oranges came in the 1300s, and the first to the colour orange is from the 1600s. There you have it.
By the way, wouldn't it be cool if pilchards had a colour named after them?
The Psychedelic Gloom
You are a fountain of useless facts —
SO, NO GIRLFRIEND RIGHT NOW?
SHAME ON YOU!
Sacrilege! Listen to this, fellow 'Ziners... on July 5, I was flicking through B*ckch*t (I only watch it to see how stupid Trendies are), and whose name should come up but WLW! Asking about hiccups!
You better have a good explanation for doing this. I thought you didn't like B*ckch*t, hmmmmm?
Kayser Soje
In the words of the stunningly dull
SHAGGY — IT WASN'T ME, K?
MORE NOSTALGIA
C'mon now, own up! Who remembers the Sinclair ZX Spectrum? I have one, along with a Commodore 64 and a BBC-Micro!
Am I the only person on earth who still cherishes these wonderful machines?
Also, does anyone remember Horace? I think I must be the only person in the world with original copies of all three games — Hungry Horace, Horace Goes Skiing and Horace And The Spiders!
Lifson Kofie (Jedi In Training)
I, for one, have no idea at all —
ANYONE ELSE? ANYONE?
HEY 'ZINERS,
'That Dude's GCSE story got me thinking back to my exams.
I remember going in to my French oral and, in a moment of confusion, telling the examiner that I enjoyed going home and eating my dogs.
Needless to say, I got an E.
Son Of Stench
And, perhaps, not surprisingly — so,
NOT AN INTERPRETER NOW THEN?
QUESTION:
I've been pondering this for rather a long time.
Anyway, if life really is like a box of chocolates as they say, then what happens if you leave them in the sun? Does life become one big gloopy mess?
I don't want to try it, just in case!
Redsun Rising
Best not to — life is pretty close to a
BIG GLOOPY MESS AS IT IS!
