“I got 99 problems, and they all bitches” - Kid Cudi with the best opening line of an album ever (the introduction track doesn’t count!).
Autotune the news #8: Definitely the best one yet. http://bit.ly/peSdo
rail replacement service ftw! All the convenience of a smelly bus and only an extra hour added to your journey!
Just past a pub that has rebranded itself as ‘wok n grill’ and claims to be experts in ‘the art of oriental cuisine’. Hmm.
It is highly likely that, 15 minutes into a 40 minute bus journey, one of the (numerous) small children behind me has just soiled themselves
Woah, Woah. You want me to take *all* of my belongings with me?! I was only going to take a couple of them.
“A great poet, a really great poet, is the most unpoetical of all creatures. But...”

Inbox:Zero. Yes!

Being a guy, would it be weird, on the way out, to tell the girl across the restaurant that her shoes are pretty just because they are?
i think kanye is a pretty cool guy. eh ruins speeches and doesn’t afraid of anything.
When people say: “I’m not really ‘annoyed’, but…”, that tends to mean that they’re fairly annoyed but not enough to be impolite about it.
Regarding Muse & Arctic Monkeys’ new albums: I’ll be over in the corner listening to Showbiz and WPSTWIN instead, before the pomp set in.
In Parliament, “the distance between the government and opposition benches is said to be the length of two drawn swords.” http://bit.ly/QNaX
It’s hard to tell whether the Copyright Folks are morons or Internet Gods. Either way, they’ve created a viral monster: http://bit.ly/1bN72
I’ve been reading bygonebureau.com for a little while now and I simply cannot recommend it enough.
a Huge Steak and a bottle of wine makes for a well-balanced evening meal, right?
Teaching myself photoshop. This is bound to end well and certainly not in frustration or anguish.
First-Person AR Shooter: lol @ ‘skittles’ integration. http://bit.ly/h5H0p, via LifeHacker.
Sitting alone in a pitch black room listening to ‘Angel’ by Massive Attack on my cans, probably too loudly. The bass is devastating.
Digitalism - Pogo. This is 21st century dance music at its absolute best. Digitalism are still untouchable. http://bit.ly/hA9on
What the Gallagher brothers are going to do with themselves now? I can’t exactly see them joining the after-dinner speaking circuit…
For examples of this, see: Back to the Future (manure) and Ghostbusters (marshmallow). Oh, Special Agent Peck: What a fool you do look!
Word of the day: Triptych. Nice.
I miss the innocence of 80’s films, where divine justice came in the form of covering the ‘bad guy’ in some kind of goo. That’ll show him!
Come by and see me, I’m a love letter away.

Ah! There’s so much great music out there! Glasvegas: I’m glad I finally caught up to you. The xx: your hype precedes you, but is deserved.
“At Fatburger, you can order a Hypocrite – a veggie burger topped with crispy strips of bacon.” - http://bit.ly/1nHjPO
An advert on spotify just suggested that Ed Byrne is ‘blisteringly funny’. What does that even mean? Will I leave the show covered in welts?
On the new Noah and the Whale: The music flirts with tweeness but isn’t. That it’s about the his split with Laura Marling makes it twee.

launching a 5-way out of a skyvan on the sunset load: loverly.
“Here are the broad strokes of their research:
If the coin is tossed and...”

It sounds like a club you make up when you’re eight think you can ‘play spy’ better than James Bond.
It just occurred to me how ridiculous it is that the chief security force of Earth’s most powerful nation is called the ‘Secret Service’.
“Life is naught but a series of challenges to be overcome.” It feels like today’s challenges were given to me by the Top Gear producers.
Currently listening to ‘The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart’. I can’t believe I put off buying it for so long! It’s amazing!
