Ambition makes you look pretty ugly.

About Me

I'm Si(gh). I'm always bored(erline).
B(rackets) are fun.
I'm an ambidextrous lefty writer.
I'm a rebel without a job.
And I drink like a yob.
The only ones who know me are the strings on my guitar.
I over do it, but face it. How many profiles do you read like mine?
Art (in whatever form) is the reason we're here.
The rain treats me like a friend. I love the city, I eat, sleep, breathe and live for the streets.

A long time ago I wanted to study philosophy, now I want to be a philosopher and you can't do both.

I'm a hopeless romantic. That is to say I love everyone I hate and hate the ones I love.

My blog is here.

It's not pretentious when you don't know any different.

You probably shouldn't add me but if you feel like it then it's worth a shot.

My Interests

.. I like it when the sun peeks through the almost closed binds but I prefer the night.

I dont like the words 'da vinci code'. Anyone else mentions it to me will get a slap in the magdeline.

I'd like to meet:

I want to piss on God.

Music:

Musical quote of the week:

And she turned around and took me by the hand and said,
I've lost control again.
And how I'll never know just why or understand,
She said I've lost control again.
And she screamed out kicking on her side and said,
I've lost control again.
And seized up on the floor, I thought she'd die.
She said I've lost control.

From She's Lost Control by Joy Division

Anything by George Orwell Anything by Kafka

Heroes:

No heroes, merely quotes.
"If I could be a fucking fisherman, I would." - John Lennon, circa '71
"Take away the right to say fuck and you take away the right to say fuck the government."
- Lenny Bruce
"If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear." -George Orwell circa '46
"Surely it's a rum state of affairs when TV actively encourages you to hack yourself apart in the name of self-worth! I mean, hacking up a stranger, that I can understand, but this is just sick!"
Charlie Brooker on makeover TV circa 2006
"I know exactly who reads the papers: The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The Times is read by people who actually do run the country; The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; The Financial Times is read by people who own the country; The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; and The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is. Readers of The Sun don't care who runs the country as long as she's got big tits." - From an episode of Yes Minister.
