I’ve seen the gifs / pictures with Dylan during the RNN interviews in 98, but is there like, an actual video? I’m having no luck finding such…

Unfortunately, there is no full video of his RNN interview nor is there any sound to go along with the clip. It’s curious why media released it without sound but not too surprising that it may have been censored so that we don’t find Dylan articulate, intelligent and seemingly normal. Easier to just broadcast the Hitmen for Hire rants where they seem like nothing but raving, angry lunatics for the public eye.

When Dylan wrote ““zombies will never cause us pain anymore, the humanity was a test. I love you, love. Time to die, time to be free, time to love “ what did he mean?

Zombies are the people of the world who have fallen in line with the framework of society. In other words, the non-thinking sheeple who are accepted amongst themselves because they follow what is expected of them but also unaccepting of others, the outcasts, those that think outside the box (himself) and do not fall in line as a non-thinking zombie person. They, the Zombies, will no longer cause himself (and his true love) pain and suffering anymore. Living in this facade of a world on the earth, as part of ‘humanity’, was merely just ‘a test’ (this is a test..this is only a test..) of living in a fake world that has no meaning or real, intrinsic value to what is the genuine (but simple) truths of The Universe. All that matters in the universe is that he loves her, His love of and for her. It’s a simple as that. Nothing else matters, none of the earthly mundane minutia has an ounce of meaning compared to purity of his love for her. To have the reward of that love means that the test is over, it’s now time die, to be free of the earthly bondage, and to at long last be in a state of love and bliss. Time to begin his new transcended existence on the other side where it is a time to do nothing but love.. No more pain, no more struggle, no more being hurt or hurting others, but being free and in a state of love.

Truly a hippy at heart. ☺️ Originally, his core was a lover not a fighter but it’s that he became at war with this world, and himself within it, out of a sense of deep hurt, rejection and disastisfaction so that that the only way to be at peace and in a state of love and bliss was to battle through/beyond It.

What do you think would’ve happened if Dylan had not committed suicide? If he had gone to jail, do you think if he received letters he would have responded to them?

Yes, of course Dylan would’ve ended up in prison and without a doubt he would’ve had many women writing him and he probably would’ve written back out of loneliness and going out of his mind with el thoughtzos 24/7. Ultimately though, I think Dylan would’ve been extremely desponded in prison with letters coming in or not. Endless years of prison life amongst hardened criminal inmates would’ve been extremely hard on him and suicidal thoughts would’ve overwhelmed him. (and he thought the bullying was bad at Columbine? pssht..) Dylan would’ve been looking for a way out of this world even more so than he’d ever contemplated ever before. Of course, he might’ve survived but, Idk, sadly, I think his life goals in prison would’ve been in finding that moment to quietly hang himself when no one was looking.

Concerning the ask you answered about how Dylan felt to hear Eric kill himself; I thought they counted together? Like Patti said they heard “One! Two! Three!” And then the gunshots. Where does the idea come from that Eric did it first and Dylan heard it tf

Patti Nielson was quoted in an article in the August 22, 1999 publication of Rocky Mountain News as saying she heard “voices in unison count ‘One! Two! Three!’, then she heard a loud boom”.

When questioned about this, she denied ever being interviewed or speaking to the two reporters credited for the article, and when asked if the account in the article was accurate, Neilson responded “in the negative”. Neilson couldn’t even recall giving interviews to any Rocky Mountain News reporter.

Neilson did explain that after the tragedy, she and others speculated together about how Eric and Dylan may have died together, and she thought it was possible she may have “envisioned” such a scenario while talking with others. Neilson did advise that approx. 30 to 45 minutes before she was evacuated by SWAT, she did hear a “boom” noise which she believed came from the SW corner of the Library.

Dylan landed face first on top of Eric’s knee based on the heavy amount of brain matter on Eric’s pant leg. This would have been the initial fall position. In the photos, Dylan is found face up with blood seeping in a downward direction on his face and his hair is all matted with blood. One of two things happened so that Dylan would be in this position: he was still alive but unconscious for a few seconds as his body began to aspirate blood so it’s possible he convulsed, coughing and sputtering off Eric’s knee to his final resting position of laying face up – or – when the SWAT team came to search their bodies for hidden bombs and incendiaries, that they moved Dylan’s torso off of Eric’s knee so that he was laying face up. One could argue that both committed suicide together, mere seconds apart, and that Dylan just landed on top of Eric that way. However, from specific details from the crime scene investigation as mentioned in this post, it seems to further confirm that Eric committed suicide first based on the fact the some of Eric’s brain tissue was found on the top of table 15.”That is the same table the molotov cocktail was lit on.

Eric’s brain tissue was on the table after the cocktail was lit and burst. They know this because there was no oily fluid under the pieces of brain tissue. If the cocktail had been lit BEFORE Eric killed himself, then there would have been oily fluid underneath the tissue and there wasn’t. Underneath the brain tissue was dry. It wasn’t a tiny piece either, where they could have been mistaken. It was approximately a 2inch by 2 inch piece.”

Devon Adams on Dylan and Eric:

thedogdaysuniverse:

“’Dylan was a shy and sympathetic person. He was so sweet and kind and loving,’ his friend Devon says all these seven years later.
‘He was also disillusioned and hurt and angry at the world,’ Devon continues. ‘He had no outlet to vent his emotions; he bottled them up.’
Dylan’s disastrous depression, which was propped up by his journal entries, was talked about a lot in the papers. But in contrast to Eric, Dylan didn’t take medicine for his depression. He kept the knowledge of the depression to himself.
Devon admits that in retrospect there was something weird in Dylan’s behavior from time to time.
‘One theory is that he had Disassociate Identity Disorder, which means that one has multiple personalities, because he literally changed from one person to another around different people or circumstances,’ Devon ponders.
Dylan was a really talented person, an extremely promising and skilful poet. Devon agrees with this and also finds many other skills which he had. ‘Dylan was incredibly talented at sound design, at computer work, and at baseball,’ she says.
According to Devon, Dylan’s talent didn’t get the value it deserved, which depressed him. ‘He didn’t make the Columbine baseball team because he didn’t have a ‘name’ for himself, so he just gave up. He became apathetic, which is so dangerous,’ she says.
In this busy Western world, where creativity and being an individual isn’t valued enough, Dylan didn’t have a place to be happy. He didn’t have the ability to handle the world around him. It makes me think of the amount of humanity and potential which was lost that day. It was too much. It should never have been allowed to happen.
Forlorn Devon remembers her last genuine encounter with Dylan. It is something, which she is never going to forget. It happened in Columbine High School senior prom.
‘At prom, just three days before the shootings, Dylan and I danced to Take my Breath Away,’ Devon remembers. ‘I meant to tell him what a good friend he was and how much I cared for him, but I chickened out,’ she regrets.
‘He asked if I wanted to see The Matrix movie on that Wednesday, April 21. I said yes. He had never broken his plans with me before. That’s why I believe that a deeper mental issue came into play,’ Devon says. ‘People who want to die do not make plans. And when they entered that building they knew they were going to die.’
Talking about Eric, Devon can’t be so insightful since she wasn’t so close to him as she was to Dylan. Nonetheless, she knew Eric and was his friend, through Dylan mainly. In the media Dylan was portrayed as a follower who in a way copied Eric. Devon, however, saw it differently.
‘Oddly, it was Eric who would copy everything Dylan did, which made Dylan so angry,’ she says. ‘But it was Eric’s stronger, more violent personality that won out over Dylan.’
Otherwise the picture of Eric made by the media and experts matches the picture of him drawn by Devon. Eric was an angry and menacing teenager.
‘Eric loved to intimidate and frighten people. He would walk through the halls wearing camouflage or black, just scowling,’ Devon describes. ‘He was bitter and angry and threatening. He hated everyone and everything.’”

“Dylan was a really talented person, an extremely promising and skilful poet. ”

Thought as much.. The Poetry on pieces of paper hidden in his room and on his (wiped) computer.. ☺️

Tried to get this book but it’s out-of-print.

So was Dylan’s hair curly when it was wet, and wavyish when it was dry? In the hitman for hire when he wears a hat his hair does not look as curly as the image shows us. it looks more wavy

Yes, when Dyl showered in the morning and drove to school with wet hair, his natural texture was shrunken up curls.  As his hair dried throughout the day, he’d run his hands through it and the natural oils on his the palms of his hands helped smooth it out until his hair dried wavy instead of curly.  If he didn’t wash his hair for a couple of days (which he did sometimes),  his hair would be straightened by the time he got around to showering again.  The longer his hair grew out, the more the curls were weighted down by the longer length of his hair so with the constant hand smoothing, his hair was long and nearly straight by lunchtime at school. 

In Hitmen for Hire, Dyl’s hair looks super curly in one scene because he’s filming it in the morning at school when his hair is still wet. 

Later on his hair is smoother and waver. His ball cap helped to smooth and straighten the hair on the top of his head too. 😉  

That Morning Ritual of driving to school after a quickie shower, thrown on clothes, the trench and a freshly washed head of naturally Dyl curly cues. 🙂
(would’ve been chilly in the wintertime as this was filmed during, BRRRrrrrr.. Hope the beamer had decent heat. :))

 Radioactive Clothing which was filmed in March ‘99 only one month before the massacre.  Dylan’s hair had grown out quite a bit so the hand smoothing trick (and probably a bit of an overdue need for a shower ;)) gave him virtually straight hair which I think he ultimately much preferred to the curls and frizz.)

How can I write to the Klebolds? I feel so desperately sorry for them and would love to send them a letter, I do not condone, but I can feel their loss and hurt, I know they moved from their original home. X

I believe a while ago but I posted the address but I don’t feel comfortable continually posting every time someone feels compelled to write the Klebolds. So, if you’re truly motivated to write them, you can check the archive of E-C. The Klebold’s still live in their original home in Littleton so there’s a little hint if you should decide to google search around for their address. 😉 

I thought maybe Robyn was worried or told it would be open casket and couldn’t deal with it. One of my friends had an open casket this past summer. It was upsetting- and we hadn’t even talked for three years. Robyn LOVED Dyl and had just been to Prom

Seeing Dylan in an open casket was the least of Robyn’s worries since she was in the most precarious position of possibly being implicated as an accomplice to murder for having bought the guns so showing up at a murderer’s funeral would greatly complicate things for her. Also, Robyn loved Dylan as a friend not as anything more than that if that’s what you mean by LOVED.  She was also stunned and betrayed by the heinous act he committed so having unconditional love for a former good friend wasn’t especially the case at that point.
