Any board members have a confession to make?

Really, in all seriousness, I have no idea how to even go about replying to this.

So, I won't.

It could be westernquinoxrocks... he's gone missing for a while and probably has a speed addiction to fund, considering the amount of posts he had per hour.

Hahahaha.

Actually I'm not ruling out anyone from here, except for Moshe maybe... he's an honest man.

Moshe may be honest.. but he is a bit mysterious...

yeah, come to think of it.... it would be the perfect cover for him, wouldn't it?

thats right. I always thought that to myself while typing "thank you" replying to any posts by him.

It could even be sonicl, who knows?

It can't be a real SY fan, you'd have a hard time finding anyone who'd even heard of them in Essex, let alone buy a t-shirt.

Unless they got it from Top Man, of course.





EDIT - Oh, it's Epping in Australia, not Epping Forest in Essex. I never imagined there would be more than one place called Epping. Never mind, I stand by my little joke about getting the t-shirt in Top Man.

ha ha ha thats fuckin funny.. a sonic youth fan with a goatee... ha ha ha!!!

time for crime ha

Indeed... still nobody willing to confess, eh?

Naturally, It's in Australia... [insert your favourite joke about convicts and penal colonies here]

To be honest I wasn't even aware that there also is an Epping in the UK. But then, I guess it would've been almost inevitable that there was one considering the British origins of many geographical names there... Oddly enough I was familliar with this Melbourne suburb that goes by the same name. Not that I've actually ever been there, but I did have to travel the Epping railway line to Thomastown for a shitty backpacker job* I had there once long ago.



*In the unlikely event that anyone over at Thomastown firewood supply happens to be lurking at this board, this one's for you. :fuckyou:

me? i'm not mysterious. i'm just... nevermind. ;)

I have to confess : it was me

...even if I shaved myself since that day :p

I think there are Sonic Youth fans who don't frequent the board.

But then, the culprit would say that...

He would say that, too...Reverse psychology sarcasm...

And that...

Oh fuck, I think I did it. I don't even remember doing it!

I am Spartacus.

Shades of the Beatles/Helter Skelter/Manson murders! :)
