Hang around, you'll soon pick up what goes on here. And feel free to join in the discussion.
You might find it useful to have a look at URL: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/welcome/part1/
BTW, (that means "by the way") where was the link?
Martin.
you're doing fine, just, like, read messages and reply and stuff. :-)

Oooh. I like that.

Don't feel bad about it. I'm relatively new here and these kind folks have already kinda accepted me, er, I think. I don't feel as welcomed in other Daria-related forums as much as this one for some reason. Maybe I'm just more comfortable with youse guys. :)
And thanks a bunch to those who offered kind words (and scary stories) about my dental complications. :)

*L* Hey, thanx guys. OKay, so, one Daria related thing I've been curious about: is it true that Tom is gonna be around in the new season and that Daria & Jane are gonna fight more?
*g* At least you dont have to listen to horror stories involving chiropractors (or the docs who deal with the spinalcord whatever they're called). I have to see one on Wed and everyone keeps telling me: "Watch out, you won't come out of there with out pain."

Jane said:
Do you read Anne Rice? Have you read Queen of the Damned?
cheryl, Goddess of Gods (grrrrrr...)
Yup on both accounts. I have the box set of the Vampire Chronicles and am working of getting the New Vampire Series.
~Jane, Queen of the Damned, or maybe she's just damned. $E

Cool. I'm working on Memnoch the Devil right now. I took a vampiric break to do the witch books she's written.

The Witching Hour is a good one.
If your interested in more dark New Orleans inspired prose check out Poppy Z Brite's stuff: Drawing Blood, His Mouth Will Taste of Wormwood, Exquisite Corpse, Love In Vein etc..
Ive never touched any of her witch books. are they as good as her vampire books?

yup. They kinda go from witches to a whole other thing though. Read the little trio of the Witches. Lotsa incest!
LOL! That's cute.

They're very good too ... I don't know how the comparison would go. The original one is like this multi-generational supernatural epic; *Lasher* is more like normal horror.

Memnoch was okay. In comparison to "Tale of the Body Thief," though, it was a bloody classic.
yeah, but you'll get to know everyone soon. everyone was new here once. :-)
Jane said:
Yes. And until the new Daria eps come out we tend to just be social.
We're willing to know *you* too though :)

Yeah, but don't fret, we don't give a damn (for a flaky bandit! -- LOL) if you're new here, just as long as you continue on with the groove thang here.
You're not *the* Lizard Queen, right? I mean, you mean "Jane" and you think "Jane Lane", not "Jane Wiedlin", and you're not from Anaheim, CA, right? And you don't have a Portuguese-Canadian boyfriend in Toronto either, right? (LOL...bet you didn't know there was a person out there who actually was known as the Lizard Queen, huh?)
LI, welcoming ya in
*L* To my friends, I am the only Lizard Queen they know. I got stuck with the nickname after two of my guy friends saw me crowd surfing at a Korn concert yelling out at the top of my lungs: "I am the Lizard Queen and you shall all mosh before me!!!" Needless to say, the name stuck.
I am from Southern Cali but not Anaheim.
*L* I don't even HAVE a boyfriend!
Actually now that I think about it, no I didn't. I don't know why i was screaming that name out while crowd surfing.
~Jane, Queen of the Damned, well maybe she's just damned. $E
Jane wrote:
Oh coolness. Still, that Korn mention convinced me you're not the Lizard Queen I've been aware of and knowledgable of since 1997. *whew* I thought she'd have at least mentioned a deep appreciation of "Daria" on the board we post together at.
(p.s.: her website's at http://members.aol.com/Duranimal4/ just in case you wanna go see who she is)
Whoa. Two Lizard Queens from SoCal. Cool. :)
:) 'Tis okay. Your Lizard King is out there, and if you don't want him, well that's okay too.
LOL...maybe you were thinking of the famous Doors quotation (by Jim Morrison): "I am the Lizard King, I can do anything", and thought, "hmmm, I can do anything too, but I'm female...ah-ha, Lizard Queen!!" A call to your own feelings of invincibility at the time, perhaps...?
LI
Nope not me. I was never on-line in '97. Didnt own a computer then. *g*
Ill check it out.
We rule. $D
If he's cute...I'll take him!
Yeah, pr'bly. of course, any sense of invisibility i had during the mosh dissappeared when I got hit in the head by a flying elbow.

And then of course there is the Simpsons scene (which is prob'ly a ref to that quote) where Lisa, whacked out on drinking some water from the (I think) Tunnel of Love ride in the amusement park they're at, shouts "I AM the LIZARD QUEEN!" while being dragged out of a fountain. I may have some of the details wrong, it's been a good year or two since I've seen that ep., but in any case it's a damn funny line.

And just for Diane... hehe
Can you belive that I've only watched pr'bly 5 or 6 episodes of that series? Unfotunantly, I dont remember that one. Damn me!

Ah, don't worry. You're fine here. Personally, I really liked Affinity's approach of "Hi I'm lewd and come on strong. If you don't like it you can go to hell." works well in shock value and amusement.

She probably clicked on a "news:alt.tv.daria" link on a website and discovered the existence of newsgroups for the first time. I have such a link on my Daria page.
(For those who haven't clicked on a "news:" URL, it causes your browser to load it's newsgroup reading software and fetch the newsgroup in question. A lot of web surfers never use Usenet so they may have no idea what it's all about.)
