Daily affirmations of a word mercenary
Gothpirates
14Jan2003 Filed under: LinkageRants from the mind of a confessed optimist:
Okay, so you know how those poofy shirts are really popular with the Goth crowd? And you know how even though they’re supposed to look all Renaissance-y and sensitive, they usually wind up looking like Pirate costumes? … We were discussing what might happen if all these Goths were suddenly to realize that they look like pirates, and act on this realization:“Arrrrr! Me parrot scratched up me Cure records!”
“Arrrr! The sea is a harsh mistress… She keeps washing off me eyeliner, matey!”
“arrr, this saltwater is ruining me polyester velvet cloak!”
“AHOY! i spot a hot topic boutique on the mainland! turn ‘er around and be ready for boarding, mate!”
I don’t know how I stumbled across Scott’s site, but it’s killing me.

Hey there. I'm Ariel Meadow Stallings, a native Seattleite who's written my way up and down the Left Coast. Electrolicious is where I post daily randomata, but I also write for a living. My first book, Offbeat Bride, was published last year.

Hi Ariel! Thanks so much for the link, and I’m so glad you’re enjoying my journal. Also, there’s no way I’m going to give you the Hell-A speech, because I lived in Venice for a month or two myself, across the street from that ritzy 72 Market Street restaurant. I liked it! Anyway, i just wanted to say hi, and thanks, and I’m enjoying your site, and I think I’d better quit before I say anything really stupid.
