The O.C. jumped the shark and indie kids stole and ate my glow-sticks

I went with some people to see a friend dj at the laundry last night, it was fun.
Mistake one- wore shoes with no grip; cigarette butts and broken glass fused themselves to my soles whilst dancing, making it slippery time.
Mistake two- Took advantage of ten-dollars-for-two jager-bombs; couldn't get to sleep for about six hours after getting home, woke up feeling very frail and shaky.
Mistake three- taped and watched The O.C, big mass of sappy, predictable, ends-tied-up-all-neat, cheese. Complete with flash-backs and flash-forwards- very disappointing.

Indie kids make me smile, it's a scene I wish I had discovered sooner. I'm right into looking as stupid as possible. If I'd discovered at a younger age that there were whole groups of people and clubs that facilitate said activity my life may have turned out differently, as it is I just feel too old and self-conscious to get into it more than occasionally, it's a lot of fun though, and the conversations are easy and entertaining...
A friends of our friend gave us a bunch of glow-sticks and went around to hand them out to people.
An indie boy came up to me...
[Imagine yelling over loud music]

Indie boy:"How's it going?"

Me: "Pretty good"

Indie boy:"What do you think of 'How's it going?' as a start?"

Me:"It's not too bad, as long as you've got a good follow up"

Indie boy:"My follow up was asking what you thought of 'How's it going?'as an opening..."

Me: "I think you need something more relevant..."

Indie boy: "what did you think of the band?"

Me: "That's still pretty vague, you should try to be more specific..."

Indie boy: "I thought the guitarist in the second band was better than the guitarist in the first band, what did you think?"

Me: "I didn't really see the bands, we were around there...(points to secluded section towards the back of the room) we mainly came to see our friend dj..."

Indie boy: "Can you give me some advice?"

Me: "That was pretty good, you should go and ask that girl over there what she thinks..." (indicates girl in black with very short colourful eighties-style ra-ra skirt....)

Indie boy: "Where?"

Me: (indicates again)"That girl, say all that stuff you just said and tell her you like her skirt"

Indie Boy:"That's a bit obvious isn't it, I mean she obviously wants people to notice her skirt..."

Me: "But she'll be pleased that you noticed, that should impress her..."

Indie boy: "But I don't want to impress her... what can I say to impress you?"

(either Indie boy read my mind, or maybe I glanced at my shirt or something as I was thinking about the badge I had made the day before...)

Indie boy: "I like your badge."

Me:" Really? Thanks, I made this, I sell them if you're interested..."

Indie boy: "I just want to impress you, but I think you just tried to sell me something... You're not impressed are you?

Me: (smiles, shakes head) "Sorry"

Indie boy: (sighs theatrically, stalks away)


I gave water to a couple of people who were biting the ends off glow-sticks in order to spray the insides around, one grabbed my arm to dance with me, I gave them some more water, another snatched the last purple glowie-thing from my wrist, I just gave a glass of water to his friend and told him to make sure that he got him to drink it.

I danced my arse off, our friend is djing at the opening of a new club this saturday, should be fun. I'm going to try not to repeat the mistakes I made this time...

Name-e-ology

I have amassed a (albeit small) database of people that I have met, known, or encountered,
I have noticed tendencies pertaining to groups of people with the same name, these are my findings;

{Disclaimer: Apologies to anyone who finds the following offensive, please be consoled by the fact that these are vast generalisations}

Tom:
all the Toms I have met have been desperate to have people think they are cool, and seem to change their opinions depending on who they are talking with.

Josh:
Joshs seem to be very sure of their particular views, also very focused when persuing what they need.

Sarah:
(according to haircolour) Blonde sarahs are incredibly self centred, to the point where they don't perceive anything or anyone beyond themselves as having any importance or value, they tend to take everything personally because they think that everything is about them and think they deserve to have everything.
Dark-haired sarahs are very eager to please the people around them, and tend to agree with people just to make peace.

Alex:
Alexs are elitists, they seek out very specific interests and use these as a social meter.

Elesha:
Elishas are interested in fun, they sometimes don't think very far beyond having a good time. I have only been able to get to know all the Elishas I have known, or know superficially, therefor data may be skewed.

Greg:
All the Gregs I have known have sported large sideburns and been deeply interested in music and not shaving much, they tend to say very clever and/or strange things.

Luke:
Lukes have been incredibly selfish and narrowminded.

Sean:
Seans are immature, can be incredibly nice and/or/thoughtful but have a hard time being grown-ups.

Ann:
Anns are very organised, they work hard, they also play hard.

Jenny:
Jennys tend to be vague.

Dave:
Daves are very affable and socially curious.

Elizabeth:
Elizabeths hoard things and procrastinate.

Kelly and Carly:
(Compressed due to similar findings)
Kellys and Carlys tend to be shallow and fickle, they aren't fussy about how they get what they want, as long as they get what they want.

Mel:
(mainly melanies)
All seem to hate me for no apparent reason, completely unprovoked.

Ben:
Bens are incredibly concerned with leaving an amazing impression on everyone, as a result they are usually annoying.

This is about the extent to which I know multiples of people with the same name.

Also there are probably many online resources for this sort of thing that are written by people who know what they're talking about.

This is Bunny Libre.

He was a formidable opponent and fought very hard...

but I won...
So I unmasked and ate him...

...and his family.

They were delicious.


Why are the supermarkets already prepared for easter?

Artist: James Brown
Song: Hot Pants, pt. 1

(J. Brown, F. Wesley)

One-two One-Two-Three uh!

Hot pants- hey hot pants uh! smokin'
Hot pants- smokin' that-hot pants

That's where it's at a-that's where it's at
Take your fine self home

Thinkin' of loosin that funky feelin' don't uh!
Cause you got to use just what you got
To get just what you want-a
Hey hu!
Hot pants! hey! hot pants smokin'!
Hot pants make ya sure of yourself -good Lord
You walk like you got the only lovin' left hey
So brother- if you're thinkin' of loosin' that feelin'
Then don't- ha
Cause a woman got to use what she got
To get just what she wants hey!
Hey hotpants
A-look a-hot pants won't make ya dance
But as slick as you are-ah! YOU make the pants
Uh! hey brother- do ya like it?
The girl over there with the funky pants on ha!
She can ah! do the chicken all night long
The girl over there with the hot pants on uh!
She can do the Funky Broadway all night long

The girl over there with the hot pants on
Filthy MacNasty all night long
Get down hu! the one over there
With the mini dress ha!
I ain't got time- I still dig that mess
Get down! but I like the hot pants
Hey! I like a hot pants

[Short Instrumental]

Ooooh! Bring it home!
One more! Hit me! Aaay!
Bring it home! Bring it home!
Oh uh! Bring it on home
Bring it on home...

[Another verse on some recordings:]
Bring it on home, Hot Pants, I dig ridin' or walkin'
I be mellow- they give me fever- like any other fella
The Hot Pants I dig ridin' or walkin'
Be mellow they give me the fever like any other fella
My temperature is goin' up- about to give me a fit
The feelin' I'm gettin' just won't quit

Alone again or

I was too tired to take it any more.

I'd like to marry you.

confused?

Shot through the heart and you're to blame; you give love a bad name.

The last temptation of christ

Apparently the devil convinvinced Jesus that god wanted him to impregnate a bunch of women and settle down and get old.
Wow, that's so totally evil.
Willem Dafoe rocks the shit though...
