black_dyed_gel_product_explains_the_name black-dyed gel product I'm posting this little snippet of information for anyone wondering about how and why I assumed this identity. Also, I felt like posting this because I know full well that none of you give a rat's ass about me. Anyway, I'll address the why first: when I first stumbled upon blather (I don't even remember anymore how I came across it) I saw, as many do, as an interesting way to express my thoughts/words. I also felt/feel that the most intriguing people are drawn to blather, and by that logic I feel that a specific person I know must post here. If you could not figure it out, I am romantically inclined towards this person, which is the reason many people do the things they do. Although I cannot back this up with any evidence, I have a very strong gut feeling that this must be true. When I began to post and had to invent an identity, I knew I must find a name that takes this feeling of mine into account. Now for the how: people generally recognize me by my hair; they stare at it, talk to it, and do other strange things to it. It stand straight up in the air 3 to 4 inches tall. Forcing my hair to defy gravity requires a whole lot of gel and at times toothpaste. It's an odd look, but I'm used to frightening the elderly by this point in my life anyway. At the time when I began posting, I had dyed my hair jet black, largely out of boredom. It, unfortunately, made me look even stranger, and people tried not to make eye contact with me when I past them on the street. When I was thinking about what I should use as a name, I knew that I should use something that could be recognizable to the specific person I mentioned earlier. Knowing that my hair is my most recognizable feature, I decided to include a reference to it in the name. "Black-dyed" was the condition it was in at the time, and the "gel" was what allowed it to attain its height. The "product" I refer to is both the gel and myself, for I am in essence a product of my environment and my roots. I hope that this identity will seem paper-thin to my beloved. In every post I make lies a trace of my personality; by this method I hope to be discovered. This little thrill also adds a little excitement to my life when I post because I know that any point I could be exposed for who I am. This basically answers any unasked questions about the name and, I guess, explains why I post. Too bad no one cares. Anyway, I'd be quite interested to know the story behind some of your names, or maybe even just to know part of your story. I'm sorry if this has just been an annoying rant, but that's why this thing is called blather. 010617 ... florescent light romantic and intriguing 010704 ... florescent light This is the place where I can be the most real, but I must chose a falsity in order to achieve this realness. Hence the florescent light- an artificial version of the real thing. 010705 ...

Photophobe Bursting, A flourescent dawn rolls into the night. Glimmering, the edge of twilight as orange and red signal the morn. She shivers and ignores whats nigh. She tries to; needs to regress into the night. Illuminated, but discoloured eyes reflect the sun. I'm silent, but strangeley morose. Its glorious + spurious that she sickens. But I don't mind such an intimite moment; just me and the universe. Illuminated, but discoloured eyes reject the sun. 010705 ... Photophobe Cause nighttime is so much easier. Nobody expects anythig of you when the sun is down. But somehow sunlight=responsibility. I don't see how this should be true, but in my world it is. So I have an instictive fear of the light. 010705 ... black-dyed gel product I like rice. 010706 ... Dafremen That was an interesting story. I found your motives thoroughly pathetic and your lost puppy dog hope of meeting the object of your affection here entirely too ludicrous not to hork up a chuckle or two as I read it(while stapling my hand repeatedly...which explains the chuckle...the hork was all you though.) All of that aside...yer a f*cking genius man... 010706 ... florescent light I'm seeing a guy with spiked hair- (he says it's 3 inches, but I think it's shorter) I thought possibly you could've been him- So when I saw him last night, I asked 'Does anyone talk to your hair?' He said 'No'. too bad 010707 ... black-dyed gel product I agree, daffy, I am a genius. Sorry florescent light, no one out of the ordinary has talked to me recently so I'm pretty sure you didn't meet me. 010707 ... yummychuckle aw so romantic. *thinks twice about posting something upsetting* ouch my spleen. its broken. damn him.
