About Me

MyGen Profile GeneratorHello, I am Lydia. I'm quite odd, I'm not acclimatised to the grown up world so I seem confused most of the time. I'm incredibly gullible. I worry constantly about everyone and everything. I bluffed being clever for about twenty years, then I realised that perhaps my huge lack of general knowledge was going to seep out at some point, and now it has. I missed school because I was mostly drunk, and now I wish I'd gone because then I might understand how people get kit kats if they live in iceland and where dubai is and why so many people I find repellant seem to always go to the dominican republic.
I have quirks, I like really odd things and I'm a bit of a contradiction is terms. I once locked myself in a bathroom and cried for ages when Victor from One Foot In The Grave was killed. I believe that Only Fools and Horses is real, even though I know it's not, but I get unsettled when I see Nicholas Lyndhurst being all shit and posh.
I dj. How I came to be doing what I do confuses me. I'm lazy, ridiculously so, I have no ability to put up with people I find morally repulsive, so I shall not get far with music. I'm pretty no frills, I'd rather have a dvd than something sparkly. I'm extremely shy, I love my friends endlessly and my boyfriend is probably the nicest person on earth bar no one. However, I don't appreciate the amount of ladies touching him in clubs. Get off him please, it scares him.

My Interests



My boyfriend draws cartoons. He's also slightly deranged, as is evidenced above.

The Crow Is As Big As The Moon, His Legs Are Long, His Feet Are Belgium(s)

I am very interested in my two substitute children, Poppy and Paddy. They're related to the Glitter band, which is rather special.

What I actually listened to last week, so if I say I spend all my time sitting around listening to Lightning Bolt, you can say 'no lydia, you don't'

I'd like to meet:



I would give literally anything to have the above as my real family.

This young man has the following quality - He is the nicest most wonderful and stunningly beautiful and ego free human on the planet. Also, he gets called 'buff' a lot when we go out, now, I get confused by this modern lingo, what with being all old, but I imagine it's a compliment.

Lawrence Hayward, I'm obsessed with you. I can't stop thinking about you. I think it's becoming unhealthy. However, you sound terrifying, so I'll admire you from a very far way away.

I would become a Jehovahs Witness again if I thought I could have a chance of spending time with Mr Prince. I'd go door knocking with him, we could have cups of tea and talk scriptures, it'd be great!

Movies:

I like lots of films, but the list bores me because I just look like a wanky student. I can't be bothered to write it. I have a friend whos favourite film is Lethal Weapon 3. I like to think I have better taste than her.

Television:

I am obsessed with the strangest things - Only Fools and Horses, One foot in the grave, Vicar of Dibley - I am obsessed with these because they make me feel cosy and happy and warm. They are goodness, and you sneer because you don't understand you pigs!

Less surprising things I'm obsessed by - Arrested Development, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Gavin and Stacey, 15 Stories High,Nighty Night, Flight of the Conchords, Kath and Kim, I'm Alan Partridge, A Bit of Fry and Laurie, House, Curb Yr Enthusiasm, Seinfeld, Larry Sanders, Peep Show, Extras, Mighty Boosh, Green Wing, Nathan Barley, Jam, Brass Eye, Father Ted, Blackpool, Phoenix Nights, Black Books, Big Train, Teachers etc etc blah blah lotsofotherpredictableshit.

Books:

Darren King - Jim Giraffe / Tom Bola, Charles Bukowski - Post Office, Augusten Burroughs - Runnings with Scissors/Dry, Andrey Kurkov - Death and the penguin, Dan Rhodes - Timolean Vieta Come Home / Anthropology, Steve Sherril - The Minotaur Takes a Cigarette Break, Danuta De Rhodes - The Little White Car, Douglas Coupland - Miss Wyoming / Girlfriend in a coma, All families are psychotic (ALL douglas coupland books end awfully, which is annoying), Nick Hornby - Hi fidelity / About a boy, Sylvia Plath - The Bell Jar. .
Dan Rhodes is bringing out a new book next year apparently. I think it'll probably be better than the bible. The actual bible!
I'm halfway through it now. It's called Gold. It's not better than the bible, but it's nice.

Heroes:



THE PLEASE PONY WORKS!

Larry David, Peter Cook, Jeffrey Lewis, Richard Herring and Stewart Lee, Mark E Smith, Kat Bjelland, Lawrence Hayward, Jerry Seinfeld, David Jason, Mitchell and Webb (my man stole their cv's from work to give to me for my last birthday, which was weird), anyone that is hurtling towards thirty at an alarming rate and isn't terrified.

Showing the general public your bum

Last night I went to see the beastie boys. They were of course fantastic, but in a fit of 'oooh I used to do this when I was 14' I decided to stand in the moshpit area so I could be near to the goodne...

Some amusing comments I’ve had whilst dj’ing...

Whilst playing Regina Spektor - "Stop playing Natasha Bedingfield"Thats enough for now. I'll be back with more. There are loads, but I have to go and stare at my hair in a mirror for a bit.

If you hate big brother, look away now, for I my friends, will sicken thee.

Fuck off if you don't like Big Brother. I don't enjoy you. I get sick of miserabalists going on about what rubbish it is. To me it's the bridge between all people, much like football is for men. Somet...
