Fourteenth Post - Favourites

18/11/2013

So, it's the confession post. Favourite things I will never admit to in person, and which if you ask me, having read this blog, what my favourites are, you will get a completely different, much better, cooler answer. But a lie. A damn lie. Because I am a two faced liar.

You know, as an aside, according to the 'stats' part of this blog, 160 people read this drivel last month. Really? I struggle to believe. Why don't you - the multitudinous hordes - leave a comment, start a revolution. Do it. And this is the post to start - do you know why? It's because you will agree with me and will want to endorse my opinions.

No lists here people - this is 'favourite only'. Bang. No second chances or split decisions.

Film, song and band are easy, so lets get them out of the way first:

The Last Boy Scout, Back Streets Back, Pet Shop Boys.

Holy crap that's a good evenings entertainment right there. Just add Pringles bitch.

Flavours - Pringles, Pot Noodle, Monster Munch, Greggs Pasty:

Original, Chicken and Mushroom, Pickled Onion, Steak Bake.

Boom. That's the sound of my heart exploding in my chest.

I am not into football, cricket or anything involving boats. I avoid rap music. I never eat food that contains okra and I never see films that have a colon in the title. I am not a fan of biographical films that make the subject more sympathetic than they actually were. I have an extreme allergy to cats and thus wish ill on every single one. I do not discuss Game of Thrones unless the person I am talking to has read the books first. I am continually surprised that some people really don’t like Leonard Cohen. I dislike The Bullingdon Club and The Sun newspaper. I am suspicious of young people. I hate it when TV journalists report on location hours after the event has finished, and the continual misuse of the word ‘pandemic’. People who stop at the top of busy escalators to extend a luggage handle need education, not punishment. I have a recurring nightmare where I am sharing a stage with Cheryl Cole and I am the only one singing live.

I do not like lottery-based ticket allocation systems and golden circle areas at festivals. The standard Nokia text message alert used to annoy me, but now I miss it a little bit.
