This is a question Mix Tapes

Everyone'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?

inappropriate mix tape
When I was at school - many moons ago - It was year 11 I think.. if they still call it that? I dunno..

There was a student teacher that I thought was so hot..
She was pretty short, slim, had jet black hair in a bob, huge blue eyes, really sweet thing about her.. everything was great, her whole demeanor.. the lot - she was called Miss Stubbins


All I cared about was music.. The school had a "recording studio" - none of the teachers knew how to use it, but I did.. So i used to record and mix all the time..
Even tho she was an art teacher, she used to come down to the music bit coz she was pally with the head of music.. who I was also pally with..
I'd always make sure I was mixing down something good whenever she was there.. And we'd often get talking a bit about a few bits and bobs in passing.

Anyways.. the teachers knew about my fondness for young Miss Stubbins - and it got to a point where i'd get really embarrassed around her.. But I took the plunge and decided.. What I gotta do.. Is make her a mixtape - sorta break the ice.. So I mention to her I wanna do it, and she should too.. to share some music -
She agreed - joyfest!

So I went home and went through my CD collection (which was massive btw) and decided that I needed to find a good mix of tunes that represent me, and my shit.. that she might also either like.. or relate to.

I don't remember the tracklist, but, I do remember it contained Aphex, Slayer, Radiohead, Deftones, Brian Eno and Prince.

I gave her the tape, complete with a jazzy tracklisting and notes about the tunes etc.. And she promtly handed over the one she'd done for me.. with less effort, but still, a tape.

Anyways.. This is going on a bit.. Basically, the tape was full of fuckin shit tunes.. and started with a tune by "the longpigs" - who are rubbish. It went on to contain tracks by oasis, super furry animals, embrace, manics etc.. Loads of shit that I stood against quite frankly..
I gotta admit, looking back there was some good stuff on there, like The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Wedding Present etc etc.. But the majority of it was pure gash

It proper turned me off.. I just couldn't see her in the same way after that.. The fuckin Longpigs?
She, on the other hand fuckin loved it.. "i've never heard aphex twin before - I really like THEM" - which annoyed me a bit..
Plus she was feelin the Slayer. Good lass

Fuckin Longpigs tho

I've since tried really hard to find her on Facebook or some shit.. But no luck

Probably married some indie tosser.

Length.. sorry etc - shit at telling stories
