May be second best but life is never fair.

because you're all just gasping to know.. i went and got the tree, and some lights, i didn't even mention it to my little brother who lives in my flat rent free, never mind re-launching the debate... that's just the kind of guy i am, impulsive, commanding, a veritable golden god! send me to iraq, i'll have everyone christmas tree'd up within a week, whether they like it or not, and they will be happy.. truly happy

the micro-world in which i inhabit is a tense one at present, the bigger picture is probably also tense, it usually is, but newspapers angry up the blood aand the news on tv clashes with simpsons, so it's a distinct possibility that everything outside my line of vision was reduced to nuclear oblivion months ago.. the only evidence i have to the contrary is the people around the world that still seem to inhabit cyberspace, though having said that, they seem to be largely candias, and, let's face it, when the world does finally take it's rightful place as atomic dust, the only way that anyones gonna blast canada is if they were aiming for the US and missed... or more likely, that the US were aiming for pretty much anywhere but in their sweaty palmed eagerness to push the button forgot to re-target the missiles from that time they were having that drunking joke at the office party

but erm.. yeah, everyone seems kind of tense around here, distracted tense, obviously the impending days of good will to all and of course, seeing your relatives, is enough to give the best of us the mental equivalent of piles, but it seems a little worse right now.. i guess the idea that if you don't find the perfect present for your current regular naked chum will look at you like you are hitlers ugly sibling and run off with that funny looking kid who sweats a lot, causes a little brain badding, but i it would be really nice to walk into a room, which contains other people, just once this week and not get the overwhelming urge that most of them are just looking for an excuse to smack you in the nadgers simply to release some of the feelings inside them they don't understand... it's like the whole world is going through pubert again

single people seem to be the worst, of course, single people are always the worst, because they are not complete and balanced like what couples are, couples who exude nothing but warmth and happiness and make everyone around them feel like bunny rabbits are dancing in their heart, let's take aa moment to think about how wonderful couples are

...

but yeah, single people, it's like the 24th december holds up the great big red shining deadline that says.. if you are still single by this day.. you have failed this year and will have to repeat it, and of course all year you'll feel like a fool because everyone else in the year is younger than you, and when they look at you the respect:pity balance will be tipping into the less ego boosting zone, so of course all the single people go out every single night in the hope that the vodka soaked rooms they've inhabited all year have presently become vending machines of mr/miss rights where they will meet the the yin to their yang and spend the rest of days curled up in front of fires on deep rugs feeding each other cherries and talking about how they will soon open up a sweetshop in a little village just outside smiletown and sell candy hearts to the other couples who live close by causeing the sky above their houses to constantly light up with a pastel shaded rainbow

of course all that is really acheived is that these places are filled with dark airs of desperation and fear... and of course their natural partners paranoia, insecurity and distrust.. all of which make for fun fun and a bit more fun

FUCKING BLOC PARTY! if i ever meet them i'm gonna smack them in both ears with a fucking cuckoo and ask them how they like having their ear drum assaulted without warning. recording your album at a higher volume that everyone else.. kids today have no respect.
