I'm guessing they rented the appartment together. Nothing there suggests someone actually lives there (think away the christmas decorations and it's a totally anonymous room with a sad garden table and some nondescript default art that came with the frame).

StanM, you say ten, but there is clearly a full front-on reflection in the window, making eleven. xposts

melton mowbray (adr), Monday, 6 February 2006 17:55 (eighteen years ago) link

Do you mean blue (veined) thing?

yes, but I am not confusing it with a penis.

See the kitchen pics: that's totally a rented kitchen in a holiday apartment. Not someone's actual daily kitchen.

Melton: ok, no elevensome will be happening then. :-)

StanM (StanM), Monday, 6 February 2006 17:57 (eighteen years ago) link

Actually, that reflection could be the disembodied hand's owner, could it not?

xpost!

I thought it was her aura manifesting itself.

they're work collegues, for sure. how often do you gather your friends so you can stand in a circle and do, well, whatever the fuck it is they're doing?

What's the Croatian for Ouija Board and is it always shaped like a blue veined pinata?

StanM (StanM), Monday, 6 February 2006 17:59 (eighteen years ago) link

the shiny thing in the background is our ENTIRE COSMOS held in a festive stasis field which will later in an ironic twist o'poetic justice become a game of marbles played by even bigger aliens haha

best movie ever!!

geoff (gcannon), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:01 (eighteen years ago) link

I've decided i'm not interested by these people.
maybe someone could photoshop wayne into the party ?

AleXTC (AleXTC), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:04 (eighteen years ago) link

OK, so someone does live there? (books in the new pic)

Have they just played charades? (note on table says: "Rudolph the deer")

StanM (StanM), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:07 (eighteen years ago) link

i feel bad for plaid guy in that pic

So, does anyone know where we can find a list of SRETOOH restaurants in Switzerland?

melton mowbray (adr), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Thanx Melton, now the party rocks !

AleXTC (AleXTC), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:16 (eighteen years ago) link

and apparently, Wayne has given up on gales...

AleXTC (AleXTC), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:17 (eighteen years ago) link

where do you get a cool backwards king of prussia hooters tee like that, wayne?

ath (ath), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:17 (eighteen years ago) link

are those ferrero-rocher or copper-coated garlic cloves? and is that a frosted mickey mouse cup?

ath (ath), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:19 (eighteen years ago) link

Whether or not she's the hostess, I'd say the lady in the pink dress is kinda hot, no? All in all these people seem a bit too cool to be natural scientists, I bet they're from the faculty of social science or the humanities. What do you think?

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:20 (eighteen years ago) link

The problem with that top pic is that the people can easily be paired off with extra ladies to spare, its so gonna happen.

Zwan (miccio), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:20 (eighteen years ago) link

"pink shirt"

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:20 (eighteen years ago) link

Hell, they were probably paired off before they got there. Wtf, roxy, wtf?

Zwan (miccio), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:20 (eighteen years ago) link

These threads have already jumped the shark.

Zwan (miccio), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:21 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh come on, Roxy just used the old thread title to make this one more recognizable.

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:22 (eighteen years ago) link

These threads have already jumped the shark.

they did a long time ago... still, i won't complain. it's good to fill a boring day at the office !

AleXTC (AleXTC), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:24 (eighteen years ago) link

That piece of paper on the table says "RUDOLPH THE DEER" on it.

Sure, we know it's a Christmas party, and they're probably playing a game. But why are they writing in English?

melton mowbray (adr), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:26 (eighteen years ago) link

CDs in the apartment:

Leonard Cohen, Dear Heather
The Temptations, For Lovers Only

something by John Coltrane
something by Take That
something called Blueberry Hill (Fats Domino?)
something by a band called "L'Aventura" ??

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:41 (eighteen years ago) link

Actually, I take back the Coltrane one: it's really blurry, but for a second it looked like it said John Coltrane on the spine.

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 6 February 2006 18:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I agree that these threads jumped the shark the moment we found diehl in iraq's site and the "other photos". Still, I have a public to please. The title is 100% an homage to the orig. thread, and has nothing to do with today's photo.

RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:08 (eighteen years ago) link

I don't agree with that, necessarily. I wrote here about the first "so not gonna happen."

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:10 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm sure that one of those CDs says Popol Vuh. Really it does.

emil.y (emil.y), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:12 (eighteen years ago) link

Sorry, Roxy, but that's an "A" after the supposed "V".

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:15 (eighteen years ago) link

i feel famous jaymc!

RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:15 (eighteen years ago) link

(xxp) I know the one you're talking about. I spent far too long trying to figure that out.

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:16 (eighteen years ago) link

Roxy, no one reads my blog. ;)

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:16 (eighteen years ago) link

haw

RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:18 (eighteen years ago) link

On the first pic in the gallery there are some photos on the frigde door, depicting a dog and a woman (girl?), which would suggest this is indeed someone's flat. The photos seem to be taken somewhere else though.

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:19 (eighteen years ago) link

Also, there's a postcard on the kitchen cupboard door which seems to say "The Phantom of the Opera", or am I seeing it wrong?

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:20 (eighteen years ago) link

And below the pics on fridge door there's a piece of paper that says "Croatia", which is perhaps somewhat weird if this pic takes place in Zürich. Are they partying at some Croatian expat's flat?

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:22 (eighteen years ago) link

yeah, i think we've pretty much established that it's a flat

RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:24 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah, but who owns it?

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:24 (eighteen years ago) link

There are also some Disney toys on the radiator, which would suggest there are kids living in the flat as well.

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:26 (eighteen years ago) link

we dont know!!!

RoxyMuzak© (roxymuzak), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:26 (eighteen years ago) link

It's nice to know that Croatians in Switzerland eat guacamole.

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:27 (eighteen years ago) link

One of the books on the dresser is a Spanish dictionary.

Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:28 (eighteen years ago) link

Dude, you just scooped me on that: I was about to say the exact same thing.

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:30 (eighteen years ago) link

Perhaps this explains their love for guacamole!

melton mowbray (adr), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Ohhhh...interesting.

I just did a rough translation of the caption of the photo, based on that Croatian-English dictionary site I linked to earlier.

KOJA JE OVA RIBA U PRUGASTIM PANTALONAMA? = Who Is This Fish in the Striped Trousers?

jaymc (jaymc), Monday, 6 February 2006 19:37 (eighteen years ago) link

Hmm, is there any way Fish could possibly be confused with "two beer queer"?
