Man, London in the 1800s was awesome

[TVC15]

I am watching From Hell now.  London seems a lot like the streets of Rome during Caligula's reign, what with all the vulgarity, pissing, vomiting, and fucking going on in the streets.  All that's missing is the dildo street vendor from Caligula.  And nudity.

I could totally imagine you as Sherlock Holmes.  His ego, emotional detachedness, and cold, calculative nature all resemble aspects of your personality.

You forgot Sherlocks coke habit. I'm n/k he had one.

Sherlock Holmes is awesome! The radio plays, the books, The Awakening vid game. 100% imo. Good shit. The tv series "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" was pretty good too.

Actually, if anyone can name some good Sherlock Holmes adaptations, i would be interested.

but the smell, oh the smell

and the hookers in face paint

Christ, PD. I keep thinking that it's Cajole posting.

I really wanted to get into The Awakening. I mean, Holmes, Cthulu, and New Orleans? It's almost too awesome.

Once I get past a certain point in the bottle, I like to imagine life in the old days. Sadly, it always devolves into how much easier it would be to live a life of crime in this distant, simpler time.  :'(

From hell is awesome.  So is cravat wearing England. 

This and Oscar Wilde in one day whiteman, O my

I totally have a hardon for the 19th century.  Whether it's the Dark Romantics, Transcendentalists, Romantics, Symbolists, or Decadents.  The only major 19th century fad I'm not totally pleased with is probably naturalism.

Modern life is rubbish.

If I wasn't such a technophile I'd think it a noble cause to hole up in the hills, disassociating myself from the twenty-first century.

skin disease, rotten teeth, a river of feces trickling down the streets, dying from fevers which could be broken with aspirin...think of all the fun we're missing

You just described Alabama.

In any case, that's a very pessimistic way to look at it.

Who the fuck cares about that?  Laudanum was CHEAPER than getting drunk, zomg.

Living in the future isn't the problem, the problem is we aren't far enough into the future. Fucking scientists need to get off their lazy asses and get to work on the following: VR, sentient AI, and cybernetic enhancements. I want to be a cyber cowboy, hardwired directly into THE NET and roaming the frontier of the Wild Wild Web! And just so everybody's happy, this could cause our society to turn decadent, and we could go back to vomiting and pissing in the streets and such.
