About Me

MyGen Profile Generator About me......??? I am generally quiet, at least around people I don't know, although the majority of the stuff that comes out of my mouth is an attempt to be funny/witty/sarcastic. Judge for yourself whether they are simply attempts.....
I would estimate that around 75% of the things that I say aren't serious....but hopefully entertaining :p Despite this, unlike a lot of people, I am actually capable of saying 'no' if I don't want to do something. Too many people do things to keep the peace or because they don't want to feel left out with their friends. Peer pressure doesn't exist in my world, it's just one of my small stands against the norm and actually it's surprising how many more people then feel comfortable with saying no if someone else does. Which is my point exactly.
Even though I don't look especially strange compared to some, I've heard everything enough times to not care what people think....
This is my revolutionary 'moaning' theory:
1) If you can't do anything about it, shut up moaning
2) If you can do something about it, do something about it and shut up moaning!!
Random facts about me that you always wanted to know (not part of the 75% mentioned above...unfortunately they're all true):
- I am left-handed yet play guitar right-handed
- The first record I bought was 'Walking in the Air' by Aled Jones
- The first album I bought was 'Hunting High and Low' by Aha (unlike a lot of people a first album I wouldn't consider embarrassing)
- I have a maths degree
- No, I don't know my 12684 times table
- I can't drive
- I think that buying pre-packed sandwiches and 'going for a coffee' are two of the worst things anyone can ever do in their life
- My greatest act of rebellion was to eat my own home-made sandwiches in Burger King
- I own 5 electric guitars, 1 acoustic guitar and two basses. No, I don't know either
- I used to be in the Cross Country team at school
- I don't drink or smoke...never have....don't get it really
- My record collection has Emperor sat next to EMF
- Yes, I have my CDs in alphabetical order and no, that isn't weird, you are for not doing it :p
- I would love to submit an entry for the Turner Prize of a picture of me laughing outside a bank. Think about it.....it's ART
- Pasta is not food.....it is used for gluing onto card in nursery with glitter and paint and stuff. You know I'm right.....
- I have had two of my songs played on the radio in France
- I pronounce the film Se7en as 'SeSevenen'
- And the game Driv3r as 'Drivthreer'
- And the shop Everything's a £1 as 'Everything's a One Pound'
- The first song I ever wrote was called 'The Monster' (it was about a monster)
- I'm normally quiet and polite but you wouldn't want to join a band with me....I'd shout at you for not doing what I say (why do you think I play on my own? Cos I do what I say :p)
- I'm sad enough to have a blog of all the gigs I've been to.....and my entire Manics collection. You'll pass? Oh, OK
- I used to play Monopoly with teddy bears when I was little
- I am an idiot
