Retro D


Great goagly moagly (score one geek point if you know where that comes from) I've never seen this page look so bare!

Not like in the old days way back in the Nineties for instance when Acerbia was a hotbed of information and witty commentary on daily events... why I remember it as if it was only yesterday...

March 10th 1993

Well it would seem that the terrorist cell who bombed the World Trade Center last week weren't the brightest of sparkplugs in the engine-block. One of them went to get a refund on the rental van they used to set the bomb. You can just see the rental guy asking for the van back.

"What? You blew it up? You realise you're not getting your deposit back."

Jesus, what a shower of stupid bastards. Car rental people that is. Terrorists don't rate much higher though.

April 20th 1993

Some weird religious cult went and burned themselves to the ground in Waco. I wonder if that's pronounced Wake-o or Whacko... I think the former is probably more apt. Sheesh this nut-job religious cults freak me out. Some sort of standoff between these cultists who declared their property an independant state or something. I think it would be safe to assume that the FBI had them surrounded... with like... the rest of the United States.

April 9th 1994

Kurt Cobain blew his head open with a shotgun sometime yesterday. I've already managed to find a picture on Justmeat.com but my suspicions are all pointing at his skanky ho bitch wife. I think she just didn't like being called Coco anymore (Courtney Cobain... get it?) and left a few loaded shotguns around after he'd been drinking. Maybe ensuring that the trigger guards were big-toe sized.

June 17th 1994

O.J. Simpson? Does he have orange skin and four fingers?

I think I remember seeing him in a Naked Gun movie. Wasn't much of a getaway chase if you ask me, he kept driving in a straight line. Didn't he realise he was on every single channel and radio station while he was being pursued?

November 5th 1995

Holy shit, Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin has been gunned down and killed after delivering a speech at a peace rally in Tel Aviv. A peace rally! The guy was up there asking for peace and he got blown away! Thats sick.

February 7th 1996

(Acerbia was entirely black today in protest against President Clinton signing the CDA: Communications Decency Act. Yes I realise what the purpose of the act is but I don't think it can be enforced properly this way. Kiddy porn is kiddy porn, we shouldn't be making sure that the wrong people don't see it, we should be making sure that nobody sees it. Burn the hard-drives, smash the movie making equipment, shred the photos; keep the kids safe)

March 13th 1996

I just heard about Dunblane. I know kids who go to that school. I spend my New year's eves less than ten miles from there at Nu's house. I need to make some phonecalls...

March 23rd 1996

Atlantis is scheduled to dock with Mir tonight, you can just imagine what the conversation is going to be like:

"Please, tovarisch! Take us home! We must return to the Rodina! This station is falling apart around us, we are global joke. Not like your Hubble telescope, it is magnificent... last we heard..."

April 23rd 1997

They managed to rescue 71 of the 72 hostages that were taken during the Japanese ambassador's party back in mid-December of last year. "Why Ambassador, with these highly armed and dangerous Militia terrorists you're really spoiling us" The started off with several hundred and have been releasing them in exchange for... I don't know, the latest episodes of Star Trek or something, I only care about this because I'm interested in Vero in my art class and she's from Peru... sheesh, how shallow is that?

Wow, it seems like longer ago than I thought, especially since this was before Pix when I had that Compuserve account and all my friends were Star Wars geeks... that was just brief snippets of some of the more eventful moments of those years blogging... course back then we called it frequently-updated cerebral kineticism, or fucking for short... ah yes... those were the days.
