why do I do at bands that I like?
I went to watch Death Cab For Cutie a few years ago in Manchester (just after they released 'Transatlantacisim' pop-facters). Going straight from work I hit the alcoholic beverages quite hard up until the show. During the show the guitarist was trying to get his head around why there is 'Chester' in lots of places in the UK (It was due to the Romans BTW, but I digress), seeing this man explaining his theory on stage and then including Leicester in the 'Chester' list I lost it and shouted "SHUT THE FUCK UP AND PLAY THE GUITAR!!". Now, I dont know if youve ever shouted at a sensitive indie soul, but I imagine the reaction would be quite simalar to his. There was no retort to quell this drunken English monstrosity in the audience, he just looked at his shoes and actually looked like he was GOING TO CRY, and said meekly "Well......I just wanted to know....."

I. Felt. Like. Shit. after that.... probably ruined the gig for a whole lot of people there.

The week after I forgot about all that 'badness'...until I went to one of the many 'indie' clubs in Manchester when I started to chat to a girl I knew
"Oh, you went to the Death Cab gig too?!?" Says I

"Yeah, but did you hear that dickhead that shouted at the guitarist?"

Me "Eeerr...funny story about that"

Length: It wouldnt matter, I didnt get some anyway.

» World's Sickest Joke

Englishman, Scotsman and an Irishman...
have an interview at a brewrey for a job as a bar manager.

The Englishman has his interview first, and for the last question the brewry owner asks "If you could put your pub anywhere in the world, where it be?"
The Englishman responds "Id have a pub next to Buckingham Palace, withall those tourists you'd rake the money in"
The Scotsman comes in after the Englishman and he is also asked the same questions. After thinking what his answer would be for the last question he responds "Id have my pub built into Ibrox, can you imagine how much all those football fans drink?"
Lastly, the Irishman has his interview, the interview goes really well, and the Brewery owner is very impressed by this mans knowedge of Guinness and the like. Finally the Brewery owner asks the final question "If you could put your pub anywhere in the world, where it be?"
The Irishman answers immediatley "Id put mine in Ethiopia"
The Brewery ownwer asks in amazement "Why would you put your pub in Ethiopia?"
The Irishman reponds "Well have you seen the beer bellys on those guys?"

Grids
Walking over pavment grids that are in pairs and avoiding grids that are in 3's like the plague!

Funny so see how 'normal' you can make this bahaviour whilst walking down a busy street.

'Best Of's'
How can 'musicans' like Brandy/Allyah ect have the a 'best of' album after only (or in the case of death, less than) 3 or so albums....full of one single each and junky poopiness that just offends my ears and makes my pet budgie cry?

I may be a bit millitant about my music tastes, but even I can at least begrudge Kylie a Best of.....not some tripe that only got a record deal because of Moeshia...(yes, that goes for you too Usher!).

ALSO.....
