i already read some stories on this mb from people who met other afx-fans at work or in the city or something, i always thought; yeah right that'll never happen to me
until a few minutes ago,
i walked into the laboratory here at philips and heard drukqs cd2: ziggomatic!!
i looked and it was just employee from here who had this cd in the computer while he was busy there.
i said: "hey aphex twin!!" "yeah that's right" he said i asked if he had more afx cd's, he told me he had most of it on vinyl
i asked him if he knew autechre, he knew them too and had some of their stuff on vinyl too he said!
haha it was really great, i work here among those boring serious people and suddenly i hear Drukqs!

The AFX symbol is a gay icon in most of the world now. I have saw lots of gays wearing it.

Apparently if you are spotted wearing any form on that symbol, you will be conidered what some people refer to as "a fag".

you are so fucking lucky! It happened to me a few times i THOUGHT i heard the ventolin beep coming out of some lab, when i entered it was gone. A lot of machines appear to make this sound, very frustrating..... Every time i got very excited, "Could this be true, another AFX-freak around here"???
But yeah.... the world is not THAT nice...

i study chemistry, i'm having an internship here at philips for about 7 months or so
i work on 2 projects here, one has to do with 'levelling and drying' properties of all kinds of coatings, the other one consists of doing experiments with very thin (0,05 mm) glass, this because they want to develop flexibel displays (LCD)

Nice :-) Usually in threads like this someone like Bill Hicks comes in to say something like: "who cares? Is your life so dull you have to tell everyone you met someone who likes the same music you like?".
But i understand, it's just a nice feeling :-) It happened to me a couple of times, and i was always very pleasantly surprised. You just don't expect to run into other people "in the real world" who are also into this kind of music. But indeed... you should have asked him if he was on xltronic ;-) Well maybe if he is he'll read this thread.
