500 years, and not a minute wiser… That’s my life all right. Did I wise up in any way? In some perhaps… But when I think about it, in all those years, the only thing I’ve truly become “good” at is loss.
Seafood And The Feather Of Sorrow
My name is Oliver Clean. I may have spent 500 years on a lonely island, but for the time being, I am in my kitchen, busy roasting seafood with vegetables. That’s all there is left from my former life. And that’s all I need.
Beyond Saving?
This is The Voice in Oliver’s head, and here is something I want to share - an insight that you couldn’t gain on your own.
Time Smiles
An Invisible Battle
This is not Oliver Clean. Oliver is still denying his destiny, pretending to be cut out for a dull, uncomplicated life. But in the depths of his soul, well hidden and far away from his consciousness, an invisible battle is unfurling, a battle to reclaim the purity of his true identity.
A Grim Christmas Carol
This is not Oliver Clean. This is someone else… Something else. Hard to explain. You’ll know in a minute.
About The Man Who Lost The Rest Of His Life
I feel the need to expand somewhat on my recent tight-lipped closure, find more words for what I feel. Here they come. I hope you can find in them a meaning of own.
When you spend 500 years on an island, you die more than once. So you think you’ve got used to it. You think you’ve got used to attending your own funerals, and listening to jeremiads. But they never fail to surprise you, both the circumstances of your death and the response of the Universe to it…
Grim Closure
The Grim Arrow has closed. Not even 500 years on an island can make a soul bullet-proof. Shit happens. It can’t unhappen.
In search of the Divine, I have found only madness.
Glittering Star DustOr How To Save Your Dragon
My name is Oliver Clean, and for the last 500 years, I’ve been stranded on a lonely island. Have you ever spent 500 years alone? No? Coz’ if you had, you’d appreciate what a divine gift togetherness is. And how fragile…
This is a Grim Arrow Special. I’m publishing it ASAP, outside of my usual slot, in the hope I can help two certain knuckleheads before they entirely blow it…
But wait, let me start at the beginning.
Wanted Super-Power: Undoing Shit
My name is Oliver Clean, and for the last 500 years, I’ve been stranded on an Island. Separate from other human beings, and civilization as a whole, there was little to experience but my own self.
And then I returned.
And shit happened.
Electromagnetic Casting Experience
My name is Oliver Clean, and … you know! 500 years… Lonely island… Wild sex dreams… And now: A Nerdette Casting, and an application that blew my socks away! 🙂
Here it goes:
Beauty And Art Over My Grim Head
Hi Guys! Oliver Clean here. As you know, for the last 500 years I’ve been stranded on an island. And if you now think “He had a lot of time to come up with such a colorful metaphor for a post title”, you are mistaken. It’s not like that.
But watch the video first, it truly is one of beauty and art:
A Not Yet Blonde Nerdette
Hi there! My name is Oliver Clean, and for the last 500 years… Oh, what the fuck! I’ll just cut to the chest!
Remember I’m looking for a cute little blonde nerdette? Sure you remeber! I strategically posted pics of a hot blonde bookworm to make sure you do!
Well, about that… I’ve got an update for you. Yes I do! 😎
Zilch Monday
The Grim Face Of Freedom
Huh? We've Got An Irish President?
Little Blonde Nerdette
I am Oliver Clean, and for the last 500 years, I’ve been stranded on an island, where I had plenty of time to develop all sorts of plans.
Unfortunately, I’ve come to realize that most of those plans require dealing with computers nowadays, and I suck with computers. They are just not my area of competence. My area of competence is to look grim and talk with a creepy voice to people who deserve it. That’s my professional focus. That’s what I’m good at. And that’s how I wanna keep it. I mean, who wants to be a Jack of All Trades, right?
That Morgan Freeman Voice
This post was inspired by a Morgan Freeman appearance on the Late Late Show. Watch video?
My name is Oliver Clean, and for 500 years, I’ve been a fan of Morgan Freeman’s. But on that island, he has also been my guide.
How?
Grim Mom Moment
You remember my perky grim idea I came up with on the Island I’ve been stranded on for 500 years? The one where I’d get back at my mom for my shitty childhood?
Well, I did it! Just the other day!
Perky Grim Idea
My name is Oliver Clean, and for the last 500 years I’ve been stranded on an Island, with only one goal: Get back at my mom for my shitty childhood!
