The birth time topic

I normally wouldn’t care about a locked topic, but I just read that the birth time topic was closed for being too obsessive and I think that’s a bit much...I don’t see how it’s any more obsessive than collectors who need 5 copies of WICF, or the “To everyone who thinks Per = sexy babe” thread or any other topic.
Actually Per and Marie both *voluntarily* gave this information in an online chat some years ago, Per was born at 9:40 and Marie said “3:28am not so long ago...”
I think it’s a bit judgemental to decide that it’s obsessive to ask for that information. If P & M don’t mind giving out that info, why get all funny about it? Fair enough if someone wanted their blood type or satellite photos of their house (which other fans have asked for.) I don’t see the difference between a fan wanting to know their birth times and wanting to know Per’s fave colour, or buying 5 copies of WICF.

I don’t see the difference between a fan wanting a picture of the house where they live taken from 700 km above the ground and someone who takes it actually standing with a camera in front of their houses (I actually think that the second “violates” more their intimacy, since the satellite gives very little resolution -1 metre per pixel is such a big achievement... and u can’t even distinguish people with that- and you never get to see it up there).

Well I agree with you Santi, I don’t think it’s particularly nice to take photos of their houses either. I know people do it, but I don’t think Marie or Per like it.

I hear some people even move to Sweden to be close to them. THAT sounds weird...

I could never be so obsessed... + I’d never leave the house for fear of bumping into Per! lol

Was that supposed to be aimed at me Tev? Because I believe I explained my reasons for going to Sweden somewhere on this forum - I was supposed to go to Malmo but I was offered a job working with a special needs child. Yes they lived in Djursholm but on the other side of town from MF. I was actually offered 2 jobs very close to her home but I turned them down. I saw her 3 times in 9 months and said hello once.
That was a pretty low dig by the way.

I don’t think it was necessarily a dig at you Sparvoga... there are some who’ve done just that (they don’t post here anymore...probably cuz they got tarred and feathered by us).
Personally, I vaguely remember you saying why you were there and that you were headed back home and what not and that the authorities that Vix sicced on you finally caught up to you and she’s now been charged as an accomplice ;o)
And if my spelling’s off... I just woke up from one of the most BIZARRE dreams I’ve ever hand in a while.

One of the off and on dreams I’ve had about my ex and the horse shit of my former job and the music playing on my copmuter was enough of a bizarre soundtrack.

I have over 10 copies of WICF. I am REALLY obsessive :P I didnt know their birth times, couldnt care less if I didnt know, though interesting few seconds of reading nevertheless. I’ll pop a party popper for Per at 9.40am Jan 12 2006 :D
