The small questions thread

In Peter Langmans book he called them WADS (like from Doom) but Dylan doesn't.

I do shit to supposedly 'cleanse' myself in a spiritual, moral sort of way (deleting the 'limits' on my comp, not getting drunk for periods of time, trying not to ridicule/make fun of people

I think Dylan did call them wads (written in lowercase letters) but his handwriting is not very clear.

I wonder why he thought that was a way to cleanse himself too. It's a good question.

I think either he didn’t want anything human to get in the way of his halcyon dream. Some people think when he apologizes for the porn and his fetishes he’s apologizing to his halcyon girl . Like he wants to remain pure because his body is only for her. Even though after he died his body won’t be here it would just be his soul.

He either felt shame over normal things or his desires were quite dark. I would love to know examples of the jokes he made to Devon.

I always wanted examples of the joke that he used to make the ones that Devon mentioned.

As far as their "movies" both of them were sucky actors. Laughable even

But if you mean acting in real life I def think Dylan was the better actor.

Absolutely. Dylan is an Oscar winner when it comes to acting in real life.

Unpopular opinion, I don’t think Eric was too bad in Radioactive Clothing

I think he was trying really really hard to make a sci fi action movie. I think the idea (minus the clothing itself) was an ok idea. The concept of clothing coming to life is hilarious. If he meant it to be a sort of comedy he won there, but I think it was more meant to be a sci fi type movie.

I think the editing, other acting, and bloopers left in brought it down but it was way better than the Car Wax commercial or hit men for hire

The seriousness of comedy always makes it funnier to me

Did E&D write the actual scripts?

AFAIK Eric wrote them

Did we ever get a statement from Dylan's boss at Computer Renaissance? I always wondered what he was like when he worked there without Eric and also probably in a much more professional environment than Blackjack?

Do we know the exact date the class photos were taken and were they released before or after 20th April?

Could the quote on Eric’s cross saying you died a year ago and no one noticed been written By Kristi?

It's possible. Although it really could have been written by anyone who knew Eric.

BUT I would truly LOVE to know who did write it, and what the meaning behind it was.

Was the laundry detergent that Eric used for his Napalm found in the school?

I'm interested in knowing wether they used it in the molotovs or in the bombs because I believe it is more believable that they stored the napalm at someone elses house if they weren't going to use it for the bombs in the cafeteria.

Who besides Eric is in Highway Patrol? Also was it made for a video production class?

It was made for the video production class Eric was in, and he was in a group with Veik, Mike V, and Chris Walker (the guy Eric in german class asked to buy him a shotgun once he turned 18 which was pretty soon)

I have a question about Eric applying for the Marines.

In AMR Sue talks about Eric and Dylan getting released from diversion early, so February 1999 and Kathy telling her that Eric would be working and going to community college. No talk of him wanting to join the Marines.

I guess I always assumed it was something Eric wanted to do for a long time. So I wonder why Kathy wouldn't mention that? When did he start mentioning that he wanted to join?

Eric spoke to the recruiter in April of 1999. So perhaps even if he did want to join earlier he never mentioned it to his family seriously

Where in the 11k does a witness state that Dylan called in a bomb threat?

Or was that another random rumor?

Haven't been around in a while so forgive if been covered recently, would be interested to know if Randy Brown still believes Eric shot Dylan, anybody know?

To my knowledge I don't think he still believes that. It's hard to when the evidence indicates that Eric killed himself first followed shortly thereafter by Dylan.

Thanks for the reply, yes I agree, I will try to find out if and why he still believes it

I’ve read in many places that Lisa K was the last injured survivor to leave the library.

Wouldn’t it have been Lisa and Val? I think Val was injured pretty badly as well. I’m not sure how she could have ran out?

Val was able to leave. The last 2 living in the library were Lisa and Patrick. When the police went in Patrick had escaped so Lisa was the only living person in there

I want to hear more from her than anyone else but she will never talk about it

I read somewhere that E and D got up early at the beginning of senior year to get the best parking spots, so they showed up at like 5 am. Has anyone heard of this at all?

Yes. Eric and Dylan as well as Zach got up extra early to get the best spots. They wanted to be right outside the doors

What's the green thing laying between Erics head and his left arm in the suicide picture?

Possibly one of the ammo pouches?

Just noticed this line from Eric

even had the 2 clips in my pocket while talking to vodkas dad about senior ditch day.

Was ditch day the 20th or was that prank day?

well it's not a part of his belt with ammopouches if that is what you are referring to. It seems to be detached from his body

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]    He did have something attached to his suspenders. Watch the cafeteria footage. Right around the time he is going to the table to pick up the drink you can clearly see something in that general area of Eric's chest.

Sounds like prank day to me.

Did Dylan ever get with any of the girls he had a crush on?

No. As there is no evidence to prove otherwise. He likely died a virgin.

Me too but I think he at least had his first kiss but that’s an unpopular opinion.

He did go back to Robyn’s that night to get his tux... so who knows

Did E and D talk about the van arrest in the Basement Tapes? Didn't they say "we got caught because we didn't plan?"


Also, why exactly was Chris Morris arrested that day?

Don't know about the plan thing, but they did allegedly say "Fuck you Walsh"

From what I've gathered Chris was arrested because he went to the school to try talk some sense into Dylan and Eric, and when he couldn't get inside because of all the police he tried talking them, and probably said some stuff that made then suspicious of him (telling them about how they had gotten guns, bomb making in blackjack, Erics anger issues, maybe he even told them they had shared some sort of plan) so they arrested him and brought him in for questioning.

Edit: "They talk about when breaking into a van to steal electrical equipment

Eric asks dylan “why it didn’t go as planned”

Dylan responds“We didn’t fucking plan it, that’s why.”"

Thank you!!!

Are their class schedules available for their junior year? I can only find Eric’s 9th, 10th and 12th grade schedule. As for Dylan, I can only find his 12th grade one. Thanks so much!

When will the depositions be released?

I’ve heard Conflicting reports however I think the earliest will be 2023

It will be the first time we ever hear more from Tom and also from Eric’s parents! I’m so excited

Also was it just lawyers asking questions or were the victims familes allowed to ask questions?

2023-2027.

CVA pinpointed it as 2023. Others say it will be later. I have no idea, I just HOPE it will be in 2023. The sooner the better

That really sucks, don't why i thought they'd be released 2020. Maybe we'll get some extra info on the 20th anniversary. Thank you!

Pretty sure Sue in her book mentions that the victims families asked questions too

Does anyone remember No Easy Answers and A Mothers Reckoning well? Did Brooks tell a story about Dylan falling in the water and yelling "stop laughing at me!" and if so was that the same story Sue told in AMR???
