No no, wait a second, this should be a Dark Corner, not a birthday party.

Perhaps there is a secret irony around us. Perhaps it is linked with the fact that I did know about the smiley page and was just to weary to go there, prefering to adress Piercey directly. In order to reach to his soul. It was of course an absurd goal, and therefore the Dragonfly issued a keen-sighted YAY, which might be seen as her prefered word.

Still it was quite a shock for me to get info about the h2G2 smilies. I've been here for long too, you know. Heck! Where is the Past gone???

Have you ever tried listening to "She's so heavy" on Abbey Road for a whole night?
THAT something that might drive in some very dark corners!

I take it you are the worlds most famous anonymous chocoholic, D?

Here, smiley - winkeye, have another smiley - choc! And a chocolate milk to wash it down with. *Humms "Here comes the Sun King"*

And in the end, remember that the smiley - choc you give is equaaaaal to the smiley - choc you take.

I`m Engländer. I am a chocoholic

[Crowd] HALLO, ENGLÄNDER!

Hallo Crowd.

We have a klinik in the town where I live that work on the twelve steps of the AA´s. I was there once to have a look what it is like. They showed a film and afterwards there was a discussion, led after the above scheme. It was quite fascinating to see it work, and I felt a little funny thinking with what problems these people all go to the clinic. Well and when you had finished you said "Thank you!" and the crowd answered:

[Crowd] THANK YOU, ENGLÄNDER!

If you really want to stop, at least temporarily, I advise you an article called "STOP". There's a link to it on my page, just over the "discuss this entry" button. The link's called "Looking for a way to go offline"
smiley - cool

NB: this is not only a stratagem to get you to my page. The link really exist.It's an entry by pilgrim Bill, or Joe.smiley - erm

Well, I think a certained kind of being hooked is held by every person. From Queen Mum down to you and those fury creatures from alpha centaury. It all depends on weather your RL still has a chance of working and if you are able to keep "normal" relationships going.(Whatever "normal" may meen). If we´re you´re substitute for RL, then you sure have a problem.

*E´s alter ego is just into discussing this problem with E.*
