Is it just me, or is the whole "first post" phenomenon...

...a tell-tale sign that Lit is becoming completely post-modern and self-referential?

If you had to summarize what Lit is about, wouldn't you say "Lit is about Lit"?

Nothing here should be construed as a complaint, just an observation.

People are funny aren't they?

I don't get the whole first post thing. But they are all having soo much fun doing it. So I say, let the kids have their fun.

 

[tortoise]

I totally understand that. Games rock, and it's fun to make up new ones, and the sillier the better.

It seriously wasn't a complaint. I have absolutely no problem with the first post game. Just was pondering out loud.

FIRST POST!!!

I thought lit was about porn?

Never mind me, I'm just chasing Siren around

It gives my life meaning to get first post.

But to complain about it is just plain crumpy and shows ya to be a party pooper.

( not referring to you tortoise shell)

I don't think any one's really complaining.....just noticing, and commenting. Go have your fun! I'm enjoying watching.

Silly post-modern games rock. I had a blast with Mischka's Googlewhacking game. I still find myself playing it from time to time. Coming up with a winning combo was fun, but to me the true hilarity was the combos that DIDN'T win, when you'd find 15,000 pages containing burlap fellatio or the like.

 

[Lancecastor]

Me too.

I'm enjoying watching.

Moon

Me too. I like to watch.

First post is neither Literary, nor Erotic.

But it is apparently closely aligned with the Spinaroonie.

And you know that can't be bad.

You can spin my roon away.

First Post is the Spinaroonie.


SD 412 my first post hero.

Sorry, but I just heard that Iglesiass fellow in my head whilst reading your swoon to SD 412.

Returning you now to "post modern self referential cinema", here on CBS, already in progress.

Spank you;

Another silly game I play is my "Imaginary Band Name" thing. I see them everywhere.

For instance, the instant I typed burlap fellatio above, it immediately screamed "band name!" to my warped brain.

I'm sick, I tell ya.

I'll complain if you'd like?

Ah - what the hell, I'm on vacation tomorrow - I'll cut them some slack - just the kids having some fun, you know?

As long as they don't fall in with that fundamentalist crowd, I'm cool.

 

[patient1]

Siren is probably right again.

First post just didn't seem silly to me anymore, it became borring.

I should just ignore it & let you folks have fun.

Carry on.

 

[modest mouse]

post-modern?
self-referential?

I tagged it as insular when I was just a Lit youngster and it still seems fitting, myself included in whatever shambles I've become embroiled in. The key is to throw in as many 'fuck its' as humanly possible(and channel some insecy DNA, they got fuck it down to a science, despite the fact that ants dominate the world's bio-mass).

The fact that I neglected to read any post other than the first one in this thread probably lends some kind of sick creedence to this first post bullshit. Kids at the playschool I drive by once per week and look for 'yummie mummies' have more to do than the first post gang(sd412 excluded, the dude is just crazy, like truly so, no act, no reperrrrcussions(sic), just stone crazy... but he has more going on than most so he gets props and yofurt at the mall from me(obscure reference)).

Blare the Hayden covers and toss in toxicity for a feeling that utterly lacks timelessness but still gets da tone thumping. Gouge away, with marijuana or not(none for me, thanks).

Has anyone seen Unfaithful with Diane Lane? is she as hot as I suspect or annoying as in the first half hhour of Perfect Storm? This mouse has had the hots for her since he was but a boy of 12 so I need to get my older women fix as well as my Lane satiation in one shot, despiote Richard Gere and some plot. I want boobies and some nice ass shots, prefereably sweat covered. Moans too.

To whom it may concern regarding the last two weeks worth of Email, I'll get to you. pipe the hell down and pull your undergarments from your arsehole. Nothing is so important that you impede a bodily function.

Give my skizzy to the bizzy,

mouse

Song etc

Lancie..........what is your av pic about?

And what Enrique song did ya hear>?

When I read that SD 412 was your hero, that damned "You can take my breath away" (Hero?) slipped into my wee pea brain.

Wierd.

AV....was a beach I like, then my chest (as an hommage to the catbrat bootay thread), now an actual avatar.

but when people start to have too much fun........
others start complaining.........

why?

Could it be cuz they feel left out of the party?
perhaps.

I say join in the fun, it is open to all.......

but to complain about it is just plain crumpy and shows ya to be a party pooper.
