Mix TapesEveryone's made a mix tape (or CD, USB stick, or whatever kids do these days). Mostly to get in someone else's pants, but we're sure there are other, lesser, reasons too.
So, who did you make it for and why?
And... what was on it?

How to send out the wrong idea...Was working with a girl in a bar a few years ago. Got on well, bit of flirting, the usual. We had different tastes in music - she liked her trancey/dancey stuff (Leftfield, Fluke etc) and I liked industrial metal (NIN, Ministry etc).
As a culural exchange, she did me a mix tape of her music, and I did her one of mine. All went well. Well enough that she wanted to hear more industrial stuff, and asked if I could do her another. To demonstrate the diversity of the genre, I did her a mix tape consisting of all 6 mixes of nine inch nails' "Closer" (including the rather good "Precusor" remix that appears on the opening credits to "Se7en"). I saw this as a snippet of the talents of Trent Reznor. She however focused on one particular part of the song. Namely the chorus.
For those of you unfamiliar with NIN, the chorus to "Closer" runs something like "I want to fuck you like an animal, I want to feel you from the inside, I want to fuck you like an animal, my whole existance is flawed, you bring me closer to god".
Best oversight of my life, we were at it like a kangaroo on a spacehopper for weeks.
