Needles, pins and all sharp things...

About Me

-----------------------------------
'There's more to life than books, you know, but not much more'
-----------------------------------
I'm loud, obnoxious and annoying, apparently. This is sadly bravado and not who I truly am. I'm not entirely certain anyone, or myself knows who I 'truly' am.

I'm a satirical cynic. I tend to look on the darker side of life for I feel optimism bites you on the arse. My cynicism is often seen as an unhealthy commodity
I like to believe I'm funnier than I actually am. Woe is me.
I like doing stupid things such as hurdling over hedges, attempting to outdrink squaddies and having 'Fight About It' times.
My biting sense of wit often gets me into trouble.
Many authority figures feel I have 'issues' The truth being; my only issue is authority, thus causing many complications which invariably lead to a perpetual amount of trouble.
I'm not an anarchist who is out to overthrow the system. I do not glue up bank doors and whatnot.
I enjoy confrontation. I'm sorry, I meant 'healthy debate'...
I'm a bit of a geek in many ways; I know lots of pointless Scientific information, I'm a grammar facist and fear that I will never have learned enough.
I do seem to have an amaranthine thirst for knowledge.
There are many things I wish to do with my life. I'm unsure of where to begin. I'm scared of not fulfilling it all before I die.
More than anything I long to remain honest and be happy with myself and another.
I would like the said 'another' to be a certain someone.
I am scared of commitment, emotional dependance, change, rejection and the ideology of love as a whole. I keep people at arms length because of these fears.
I feel this best describes me...
---------------------------------------
'He awoke to find himself trapped in the past'
----------------------------------------
I like to dance. I've been told I'm reasonably good at it.
"You're a proper little mover, aren't you"
I have a thing for accents.
Emotive music is best.
I people watch and come up with scenarios for their life. You may find this weird, but it passes the time.
Sunday afternoons are designed for reading and listening to the radio.
I read an awful lot. I could essentially start my own mobile library.
I write things down in perpetuum; usually thoughts, feelings, philosophies and ideologies. I write a lot of prose, poetry, sketches and plays also.
Vote Green.
Some people may feel the Green Party are a cop-out vote. At least the Manifesto for a Sustainable Society is worthwhile.
I like words. They are my 'thing' apparently.
I believe that words are the most powerful weapon you will ever own. You may have the bravado and sheer beef for fighting, but words cut deeper than fists.
I have a very analytical brain which seems to annoy certain people... I constantly philosophise but I enjoy it.
I enjoy questioning the purpose of my own existance.
Jedis are ace...
I possess "abusive charm" apparently.
I possess 'Savoir faire'
I am a great believer of Karma.
I like sitting in woods, fields, parks, by the sea, just thinking.
I like walking barefoot.
I love Ceilidh and Celtic folk music in general.
It makes me preternaturally happy.
I enjoy boycotting.
I despise the following:
Rasicm
Animal cruelty
Animal testing for cosmetic purposes
Homophobia
Materialism
Vanity
Hypocrisy
Ignorance
Moomins
Harry Hill
Smith's covers
People who fail to see I am most misunderstood and that deep down, I'm a good kid.
I love cellos and violins. Antonio Vivaldi was a genius.
I like watching fires whilst listening to folk music.
I dislike uncouth public affection.
I dislike the general public. Especially those with pushchairs who insist on ramming you in the achilles and then sailing past like nothing happened.
I enjoy a good brew. It has to be Yorkshire tea.
Guinness. It gives you strength.
I love:
Installation Art
Theatre Of The Absurd
Performance Art
Philosophy
Writing; Iambic Pentameter is mint.
Manchester
Reading - And old book shops
Physical Theatre.
Music
I like the crackle of Vinyl.
Moshing is fabulous, even if it does lead to arthritis.
I'm double jointed practically everywhere.
There are many people I miss in this life. I can but hope somehow we will become reaquainted in another
Despite my genuine fervor for beer, I am not an alcoholic.
I like instrumental music.
I love to watch the sea.
I have a habit of quoting situations with song lyrics
:To Daydream Properly Takes Unmeasureable Amounts Of Imaginary Skill:
-----------------------------------------
"Philosophy is the deconstruction of the molecular structure of life"
-----------------------------------------
This is home. Being Welsh is important to me. Shut it.
-----------------------------------------
Your prejudice won't keep you warm tonight

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

John Lennon, and talk about what an awful state the world is in.
I meet Lennon most nights though, since he's my guardian angel and all.
Yeah, me and old John like nothin better than to kick back with a beer and chat about the good ol' days...
sometimes his wings get in the way though, difficult in a small space.

David Lee Roth. I'd ask him how he managed such impressive hitch kicks and box jumps without injury.

Davie Bowie, and ask him how he managed that thing with the crystal balls in Labyrinth, again without injury.

Tracy Emin, as she seems to frequent my dreams a fair bit. I do not know why, so don't ask.

Frankie Howerd, and tell him what a profound effect he had on my life and that I've actually based myself on him.

Morrissey, well let's face it, I do love him a fair bit.

John Bramwell, to me he's better than Shakespeare...

Danny Watts in the next life, because I miss him so much in this one.

Franko B, because the man just fascinates me.

The old tempter...

It's bizarre how you learn to love and grow with people. The situation changes and you're left with this aberrant feeling. You have to learn to grow on your own once more, you're left somehow like an ...

And it hurts with every heartbeat...

Well, life's a bag of wank. Woow. Don't drink a whole bottle of rum to yourself; passing out and then waking up half dressed, sprawled on your bedroom floor with your room trashed and your bed upside...

Right, well. I'm unsure of where to start exactly. I'm listening to The Maerlock, so with a bit of luck I shall be somewhat inspired. 9 million and one things have gone on over the past...

Pointless.
