At least I made a cheese reference. Which is not easy when you’re dealing with the subject of your future incarnation.
You're back! Missed your humourIt’s a Feta Compli
Thank you. I thought I’d manifest just long enough to congratulate those of you who‘ve kept the whole Fortean interest thing going as long as it has. Ever since I picked up the first issue in Mugwump in Durham, it’s been a big part of my life.You're back! Missed your humour
We're watching an Alfred Hitchcock dramatisation of the story set in the American Civil War.This concept has been explored in literature and drama beginning in 1890 with Ambrose Bierce's astounding 1890 story 'An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge', which continues to influence artists.
Quoting myself'ere again -
I won't describe it because it's such a great read. If you haven't read it give it a go, and then think of all the times you've come across the same central conceit without knowing it. Terry Gilliam's Brazil? TV's Life On Mars and, yes, Holby City? Mind-blowing. All the previously-mentioned yarns derive from it.
I think it's the idea of loss of self in the consumption that is objectionable for the poster.The idea of being consumed by love for eternity is also undesirable
What a strange, unhappy opinion. What could possibly be better?
