A Tribute to F.U.C.K.
---------------------
I know when I started up this 'zine/textline/whatever, i neglected to
mention my main influence. F.U.C.K. I had called up Narkotik Illusions
and had heard much about FUCK, but i had only read two issues, and I
only read those because I likes the topics. They were Acronyms and
Sacnning Phun. I loved them. I know I may have said they were too serious,
but Scanning Phun was my kind of shit. And I wanted to write, too. But
what I DIDN'T want was to be rejected. And I didn't want to have to call
LD anymore for the latest updates. So to be on the safe side, I created
TYME with Sakima and S0l0mn. It's been through a lot of changes, like
it was originally only supposed to allow certain people to write, but now
I gladly accept contributions. And all this because of FUCK. Disorder
is a great guy, I enjoy speaking with him on Wulf's Den, and Jericho is
cool also. (They also appear to use the same account??) They both 'work'
for FUCK, and they do a damned good job at it, too. I commend them on
a job well done. And congrats to you guys for making it to #100. Keep
'em rollin out.
Before starting up with Sakima and the others, I had read every FUCK
file produced. And at that time, the most recent was #88 - The Man. And
about 4 or five I skipped, because some of it just wasn't appealing. But
overall, the group is great, and I encourage everyone to read it.
When I got into that little flame war, i didn't stop to think how much
F.U.C.K. HAD done for me. They had shaped my whole idea for TYME, and they
helped me get started, and they provided ideas. But i will hereby state
that i have NEVER copied a FUCK file and released it as my own. I may
write about the same subject, but the writing is entirely my own and in
no way copied from FUCK. I respect them too much to sink that low.
When I say they helped me get started, i don't mean direct contact with
one of the guys there, but they helped by inspiring me and pushing me in
the direction i wanted to head towards the whole time.
The headers and footers may appear to look like FUCK's, but they're not
intended to look like them at ALL. FUCK has a repeating -=-=-= pattern,
whereas we are only =====. We have the 'drab' style. =] Disorder accused
me of many of the thing i am writing about here,and most of this text is
to clear up any confusion between the two.
And so I finish. I apologize for making this so short, but it IS Thanks-
giving, and i am ravenous. Later all.
Greets and Thanks : All the usuals in 7o7, plus Blade this time, and thanks
to Disorder for convincing me to pay my respects to FUCK.
