Wind chimes. They're just pieces of metal making a fucking racket as they collide. They're about as peaceful and spiritual as Harvey Price freestyle drumming on some pots and pans.

I was in a queue at the B&M in Norris Green a few months ago and they had them for sale next to the till. Woman in-front went "Oh I'll have them too'. I nearly drowned her in weed killer. 

 

Unless you live on a secluded farm miles away from anyone else then why would you ever have them? I can't sleep at the best of times.

Rock FM. Such a badly named station. I've just ran a nice bath as the Cricket is doing my head in and put the Radio on. Normally I'd have Radio X on but fancied a change as Johnny Vaughan is off. Put Rock FM on expecting at the very least a bit of Europe - Final Countdown. What was playing? Fucking Maroon 5. 

 

Rock FM? Cock FM more like. 

 

On a plus side I'm glad I went back to Radio X as Gordon Smart has got Kelly Jones from the Steeophonics on. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Maroon fucking 5. The American Maximo Park.

These quizzes that are supposed to determine what your favourite film/song/band/food is etc. Or guess you age. Its obvious clickbait but I sometimes fall for them. 

 

Seen an "Are you Oasis or Blur?" I don't know why I even bothered. 

 

Ary from 'The North or 'The South'

 

Do you prefer 'Beer' or 'Gin'

 

Do you 'Live your life in the city' or 'Live in a big house in the country?' 

 

Fuck off.

Which character out of Game of Thrones are you?

 

1. Do you prefer fire or ice?

2. Do you prefer Dogs or Dragons?

3. Was your dad a mad cunt or do you not know the fucker?

4. Was your mam a slag?

5. Would you shag a ginger?

 

Great, based on your answers you are....

I have a friend online with whom I've chatted regularly with for 12 years. There's no 'involvement' just chatting about life and stuff. Anyway, a few days ago, she tells me 'Finally, I'm going to Dublin'. 'Great, I'm looking forward to meeting you after all this time' I said.

 

Then the next thing she said is 'We (her female friend) want to go to some pubs... is there a Wetherspoons? A fucking WHAT? It's her, and her friend's first time in Ireland, and they can't go anywhere without going to an environment they know and feel familiar with, in this case an identikit formula pub owned and run by Mr Fucking Brexit himself. What is it with English people who when they go somewhere different, they still want exactly what they have at home? How about sampling the local culture, some Irish music (not everyone's taste, but still) and see how Irish people run pubs, as opposed to needing home comforts away from home? If they're going to go to a Wetherspoons, they may as well just save the expense of flights and accommodation and sit at home in their local.

 

Rant over.

Its the same when people go on holiday within the UK. A Wetherspoons opened up where i am in Cornwall and within 2 years at least 4 local businesses have gone bust due to not being able to compete.  Thats 4 more empty premises on the high street never to return. Wetherpoons are like a giant spacecraft that lands on a small town and sucks the life out of it. Spend a couple of quid extra and try something that is probably going to be better you fucking zombies

People on facebook going on about plastic.  I get it, we need to use less of the fucking stuff.  

 

I go on there for a bit of light relief but all I find is gobshites going on about plastic and giving sugar to dying wasps.  Fuckin' hippies. 

It's pretty obvious there has been an active attempt to get the public to be concerned about cutting plastic and connect that to climate change, so that less scrutiny is put on emissions.

Agree 100% on Weatherspoons but we have 'Irish' boozers all over the shop in Britain, maybe they just fancy a wee change.

When people go out of their way to ask you about a place they are going on holiday and provide them with loads of ideas of what to do and where to go.

 

Then they come back and tell you they just wandered round like the Stone Roses doing fuck all for the entirety of their holiday. 

Details mate details.

You go round someones house and they offer you a coffee

 

"how do you want your coffee?" - Milk no sugar please

 

Chatter chatter - "do you want milk in this? - Yes milk no sugar please

 

Chatter chatter - "sugar?" - YES FUCKING MILK NO SUGAR AND TURN THE FUCKING KETTLE ON!

Is this about the time I went to Lanzarote to recreate the Fools Gold video?
