I had forgotten this:

"The literary woman, unsatisfied, agitated, desolate in heart and entrails, listening every minute with painful curiosity to the imperative which whispers from the depths of her organism "aut liberi aut libri [either children or books]."
?Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols

Ten years ago I would have turned the page with a sigh and a sneer.

Today...?

Threadworm - LOL

?It is the most sensual men who need to flee women and torment their bodies.? Err, yeah Fred, if you say so

Threadworm · 11/01/2008 20:18

Would that be Sigmund Fred?

onebatmother · 11/01/2008 20:19

torment their bodies is a ref to the men's own bodies I think MT?
may be wrong but think it is about self-mastery/

Threadworm · 11/01/2008 20:21

Yes. I think he would say, the greater the deisre, the greater the repression. Hence sensualists would go in for more self-torment.

Freud's moustache is quite dapper. I think I will ask Frau Koch for a 'Freud'.

Swedes · 11/01/2008 20:23

I think he was highly likely a homosexual.

Threadworm · 11/01/2008 20:26

Based on the moustache? Or the psychological theory?

Swedes · 11/01/2008 20:28

Threadworm - Best be specific and ask for a Sigmund lest you end up with a Clement, with eye droop thrown in free? Perhaps.

Nietzsche went to Sicily a LOT, which was, I believe, the equivalent of going to Sydney during Mardi Gras.
But, sadly, it's all hearsay.

Monkeytrousers · 11/01/2008 20:30

I know that OBM. Honestly!

Still works. Read it again!

(like his own sefl mastery for fighting off women...in his dreams! A very handy excuse for only getting it off prozzers )

Swedes · 11/01/2008 20:30

Yes, going to Sicily is not as conclusive as owning a flat in Brighton.

onebatmother · 11/01/2008 20:31

eurgh Swedes and Liver Lips too! Mr Threadworm would be very disappointed I believe.

Swedes · 11/01/2008 20:32

Oh OBM - the liver lips are the model's own. I don't believe they do trout pout at the Spa Angst.

It's the old immortality thing again, isn't it? Men write to achieve their immortality, as they can't have children (in the birth sense). I write, but my passion and drive has waned since I've produced my ultimate creation: my child.

onebatmother · 11/01/2008 20:34

Oh I see Monkey.

Was trying to be casually and discreetly enlightening.. how annoying of me.

onebatmother · 11/01/2008 20:38

Swedes, I believe that Frau Koch's depilation technique is quite.. firm, and some inflammation is inevitable. Threadworm, don't get any kind of Freud! You could end up with permanent trout pout.. down there. It doesn't bear thinking about.

Monkeytrousers · 11/01/2008 20:41

lets not go there. nice thready

onebatmother · 11/01/2008 20:41

Now The Marx on the other hand, offers an opportunity to delight Mr Threadworm with a subtle two-tone effect, whilst retaining the fuller 'do of which he is so fond.

Monkeytrousers · 11/01/2008 20:43

Speaking of jewish fellas, does anyone else fancy that geeky looking doc for ER?

onebatmother · 11/01/2008 20:45

aah Hobnob 'kinell I'd forgotten that whole approach. It is male writers who are anxious, empty, lacking!

Do you know, I suddenly feel MUCH better!

Monkeytrousers · 11/01/2008 20:45

And do you think the israeli boycott on some campuses extended to refusing the advances of such nicve jewish boys? (wondering aloud - just ignore me)

onebatmother · 11/01/2008 20:46

lol jewish fellas.
link MT?

Monkeytrousers · 11/01/2008 21:28

okay you asked for it.

geek city

I do like Luca, but this guy floats my boat too. Like the curly haired look! But not Bruno from Fame though!!

Dr Lucien

But really he is a poor mans
Mathieu Kassovitz He's the one on the left, the cute one

onebatmother · 11/01/2008 21:56

Can kind of see Dr Lucien.. but would far prefer Vincent Cassel in La Haine to Kassovitz, I think.
