i watched Paha Maa tonight, which i saw translated as Frozen Land somewhere. but it really means Bad Land. i had trouble with it as it was depressing me so much, i've been oversensitive in a weird way, but i managed to watch it through. and, well, finnish life *shrugs*

a highlight of the day was when a member of Type O Negative expressed me he liked the stuff on my website :D sure enough that got me grinning. i listened ty Type O mainly in the 90's, but i think they affected me quite a lot on some level, and some of the ideas and lyrics gave me a lot to think about, they're into the dark and depressive but with a humorous edge, just like me, so... i just did this
tribute photo to Type O which i guess sparked this response, and so it was even more of an honor. the tribute photo is based on a design of theirs, as linked under the photo. it's not very positive, but i think that it has humor in it at athe same time and also it's just plain showing the finger to those who wouldn't allow something like that to be shown if it was up to them. i think that design is from around the time when the song "Gravitational Constant: G = 6. 67 X 10-8 Cm-3 Gm-1 Sec -2" was released, as it ends with words...well see for yourself. i always liked this song a lot, it's a perfect example to describe the band.

"Well I’ve got no more reason to live
And I’ve got no more love to give
Tonight’s the night
I’ll paint the town red
I’ll put another hole through my head

Unjustifiable existence

Now I feel the weight of a world on my back
I’ve seen the future
The future looks black
It’s what I must do
I have no reservations
Ain’t talk ’bout self preservation

Unjustifiable existence

Gravity crushing me
Gravity crushing me

Yeah I feel something pulling me down
Forcing me between myself and the ground
Of all the nightmares that ever came true
I think that gravity (gravity-gravity) is you

Unjustifiable existence

Gravity crushing me
Gravity crushing me

I’ve got a problem
A problem with hate
I can’t go on dragging this weight
A cold steel hand that won’t let go
Acid-filled thoughts out of control

I built myself a nice little cage
With bars of anger and a lock of rage
I can’t help asking who’s got the key?
When I know damned well it’s me

No I ain’t hinting for sympathy
I’m used to dealing with apathy
The scars on my wrists may seem like a crime
Just wish me better luck next time

So what if I died a thousand deaths
You think I’m insane but I have no regrets
One more time won’t matter no question
Suicide is self expression."


-Type O Negative: Gravitational Constant: G = 6. 67 X 10-8 Cm-3 Gm-1 Sec -2

btw here's Ville Valo singing 'Black #1' (another Type O song)

anyway tomorrow, well in a few hours really ( i should go to sleep...), i'm going to shoot some kitties. i hope they're co-operative.
