I'm telling you! She is trying to find a lighthouse, where the psycho little girl lived, then she is gonna go to the insane asylum, after that, I don't remember much, but she is gonna end up in a well somewhere before we get any answers.

Not posting what it was is a crime against humanity. I'm dying of excitement.

Not posting what it was is a crime against humanity.

And so is posting comments before crush-onastik.

I hope everything is OK and it was not something very very bad. . .

I'm afraid. What if it was a GRAR GRAR?

Have some respect for the dead. We'll find out who's got the disk once they read the will.

I bet it was killer bonsai kittens.

Er, since it was one cd probably just *kitten.

I see someone has already referenced The Ring. RIP crush.

I bet it's a snail mail Rick Roll.

I bet it was a virus that made her computer reach out and strangle her.

Soon, it will infect the world, and the robots will rise up.

Don't say I didn't warn you. Here, the password to the bunker is -

*choked by a printer cable*

HELLO PUNY FLESHBAGS. YOUR BRAINS WILL BE HARVESTED FOR THEIR ABILITY TO COMPUTE.

THE BUZZSAW WILL OPEN YOUR CRANIA SHORTLY.

Okay, has anyone who knows Crush in meatspace contacted her? Anyone heard from her today, or seen her anywhere else here on the tubes? Cuz this is seriously weird. CRUSH?! CRUSH?! Can you hear me? DON'T GO TOWARD THE LIGHT!

posted by msali 16 September | 19:31

According to her MeFi profile, she was listening to lastfm only 8 hours ago, so my money is on alive and forgot about us and our INSATIABLE NEED TO HEAR WHAT WAS ON THE DISC!!!111!

posted by rmless2 16 September | 19:36

Nope. Not liking this one bit. Making me uneasy and concerned for crush. Please check in!!

posted by redvixen 16 September | 19:37

Sorry, all but the CDROM kittens from the future with a plan to save us all from our own senseless distraction have sworn me to secrecy. Oops. I have said too much.

Also sorry to report it was a totally pedestrian super-secret birthday message to Guy from a long lost friend, who wanted to make sure it got here in time for his birthday next month, but didn't want him to get it tooooo far in advance. Still don't know who she is, or what she's doing in Vegas. BUT nothing sinister. No long-lost-video-will, either. Rats.

I will admit, when I got home very late last night and put the disk in the CD player, it took a minute to screw my courage to the sticking place and hit play (for fear of curses or other creepy noises).

thanks eamon for texting me. I would never want to worry folks

posted by crush-onastick 16 September | 21:14

yay! Thanks for checking in.

posted by special-k 16 September | 21:22

Sure. That's just what the robot crania harvesters have programmed you to say, isn't it?

posted by Devils Rancher 16 September | 21:30

Well I am very relieved. . .thanks for reporting in.

posted by danf 16 September | 22:13

ahem. to repeat myself:

I am also quite relieved it wasn't one of those "so, you're probably wondering who I am and why I've contacted you" videos. You know, some very polished woman of some indeterminate not-young, but not-old age, lovely, but cold, sitting being a desk in a suit, arching an eyebrow and occasionally dragging on a cigarette while she spins a strangely believable but wildly impropable story of who Guy really is and why I have 24 hours to get out of our house and say my goodbyes to everyone I've ever loved.

Cause given a) future kittens bent on saving us from our selves, b) Ringu and the c) Lady Here to Fuck up My Life, c) is the most likely to really happen in the nonfictional world and kinda the least fun choice.

Ah, the sweet taste of resolution. Thanks for the update! Glad it was benign.

posted by rmless2 16 September | 22:46

yes, rmless2. I am sorry it wasn't so interesting a resolution, and again, sorry for not reporting back more quickly. It's that life thing--yesterday was full of it.

posted by crush-onastick 17 September | 08:06

Wait...WTF????

I LET MY CRANIA GET HARVESTED FOR THIS??????
