Oh Saddiction. I wish I was as talented as you when it comes to being aesthetically creative. That's pretty cool you landed a gig as an extra in a movie.

The best I ever get is becoming the subject of photographers at The Exile.

God I wish I knew how to get into gothic modeling or something.

You'd prolly make a good model actually

I've never modelled or anything before, short from having photos taken by friends. I think I lack self confidence. Besides, the modeling/fasion industry is vicious when it comes to the right body types. You just have to be so damn perfect :/ *sigh*

OK. I admit it, I’m jealous.

Oh, how I’d love to go into Ipso Facto now and buy some boots <sighs>. Speaking of which the ones you picked look excellent on you.

One of these days we’ll have to meet up at ipso-facto and have some shabu shabu afterwards down the street.

Here is a picture of the outside of Ipso Facto that I took about a year ago.

This I know. Especially for gothic models, they have to pretty much be rail thin. I've got way too much muscle to be rail thin.

Mother Mary and Joseph! THOSE are kick ass boots! OK, I am now caught in the
viscious cycle of conspicuous consumption of boots. We'll put our boots on and have a dance competition to VNV Nation!

Sounds great man, except that you usually go there on weekday mornings right? I can only get away on weekends. But if you can ever meet there on a weekend, just let me know and we'll do lunch, my treat! There is an El Torito, a pizza place, an Italian restaurant that is inside a reconverted theatre, all kinds of cool places for us to chat.

I'd probably have to lose 40-50lbs to even be considered.

That's a weird question. o.O

But to answer that question, I am 5'6 weighing in at 110.

And you Bloopie - you asked but provided no info. Pay up.

And what do you mean with the comment about winning? What does 'winning' have to do with anything?

Right you are, old boy. Genetics. I used to lift weights in an attempt to bulk up, and it helped, to a point, but I tired of it after a few years. I just take solace in the fact that, chances are, I won't get fat in my autumn years.

Thank you for the compliment about my shirt.
But the hat isn't that nice close up, as it is one of those ones that have the white lines going down.
Which every poseur/ wannabe rocker/ emo / indie seems to have!
Also I warned you about looking into my dark circles, lots of people say it makes me look really scary and most of the time I have my eyes wide open adding to the eerie factor.

I don't bodybuild in the strict sense that site is dedicated to promoting - it's more of a stress relief / anger management thing for me. I hit the gym at least 3 days a week and as far as poundages go, it depends on the exercise, of course.

As heavy as I can. That's pretty much the best answer.

Hey, it works for me. Being heavily built was a high school pipe dream; Lifting weights was a lot of work, and I'd rather read. Some pushups in the morning is fine, as far as I'm concerned. Huzzah for an SR-71 metabolism.

Tell me about it, Saddiction.

I don't know what is with people and the idea of emaciated bodies.

Oh, and bloopie. NICE upper abs.

Actully... I wonder if it is a genetics thing. My mother had a WHOLE LOT of Native American genes and she's always ripped. She never works out.

I know what you mean. It's amusing to do things like pull myself up a rope using only my hands. It looks impressive to the observer, but, in reality, isn't terribly difficult, not because I'm so terribly strong, but because I'm rather light.

Haha! No worries, though. You meaty fellows are good for moving rocks and throwing cars and such. Those strong man competitions make great barroom television. Call me if you need to get something out of a confined area; that's where the skinny folk come in handy.
