»SML: »CL8:- To be taken with a pinch of salt -
by Alive/Digital
»CL0:Well dear sceners, there's an old and well known saying here in the UK: »CL1:"Your
past will meet you around the corner"». And it would appear from an article
in issue 30 of »CL1:EuroChart» entitled »CL1:"A(nother) Reply to Shade"» that my distant
dark deeds have well and truly caught up with me. It's a cross all us
scene-celebrities have to bare I guess. Nothing we do goes unnoticed. »CL1:(I hope
you're all taking that salt now)»
Just like Bill Clinton - I've been caught with my pants down readers.
Someone's seen me with my thumb in the pie and poking the neighbour's wife
as they say. (metaphorically, of course) Yep, I'm afraid there's no escaping
it, I have to confess: »CLA:I'M A GFX RIPPER!!! Alive IS A GFX RIPPER!»
»CL8: WEIGHT OF THE WORLD
»There, what a relief! Sinister secrets like that aren't good for the soul you
know. I've managed to keep it a secret for this long, but I'm sad to say that
my dastardly deeds have been exposed by that notorious liar (sorry I forget
his name) from that mediocre group called Anathema. What can I say. I'm so
ashamed.
I just hope the »CL1:Gfx-Twins/Scoopex (now known as Gfx-Twin)» can find enough
compassion in their hearts to forgive me. I know it was a disgusting thing
to do. To abuse their trust. I mean, how could I do it. All those long
"friendship" letters, and what for? Just so I could get my filthy hands on
their work and rip it, that's what for! »CL9:Haaaaahahahaaa!» »CL1:(oops)»
»CL8: AN IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBILITY?»
Ahem, errm. Yeah. Well it wasn't an easy task I can tell you. It was pretty
damn difficult in fact. Well you see, the problem I had with ripping the
»CL1:Gfx-Twins'» work was that they never seemed to send me any unreleased
pictures.
I continually asked for »CL1:UNRELEASED» work, but they weren't having any of it.
They'd just say things like: »CL1:"Watch-out for the next Scoopex intro m8!"»
or »CL1:"wait for our slide"». Yep, that's right, these guys were only sending me
gfx already seen by the entire scene! Essence logos, ROM, SeenPoint and
None Sense title pictures. Well you can just imagine the problems this kind
of attitude caused me. I mean, how on earth could they expect me to rip this
stuff and get away with it. What a dilemma.
»CL8: SHADE TAGS OTHER'S GFX!!»
Indeed, it took many hours of exhausting thought on my behalf. But just like
the two rippers »CL1:RWO» and »CL1:Louie» - both recently exposed by another notorious
liar: »CL1:Pha/Agony» - I managed to come up with a perfect solution. All I had to
do was replace the »CL1:Gfx-Twins'» handle with my own, simple! No one would ever
suspect. Just look how convincing it looked when I ripped a picture they
done for C-Lous' None Sense mag:
»PIC:ShadeRip»
See, the perfect crime. And if it wasn't for that interfering old goat
from Anathema I would have gotten away with it too - »CL9:DAMN HIM!»
»CL1:(Anyone remember ScoobyDoo? "SCRAPPY!" :)»
»CL4:This article is dedicated to: »CL5:CurtCool», »CL5:Mop» and »CL5:Hollywood» for their wise
anti-war words to me. I promise, these are my final words on the matter! :)
»CL1:PS: Notice this art is in EC's dedicated flippancy section. If anyone out
there has taken this article literally; contact me, I know the number of a
good doctor.
