I am here for Friends

About Me


I'm a grumpy old woman at the age of 20. I'm also slightly ashamed to be a human being. For so many reasons. I make a point of being nice to almost everyone though. Unless you're a cock, or I just don't like you in which case I make no pretences of friendship. I don't see why I should spend time with people I don't like. I don't have much patience when it comes to attention seekers, whiney people and just generally fucking annoying people. There's not much I like to be honest. I like smoking weed more than I like getting drunk though. I think a lot more than the average 20 year old girl, I think. But then again that's not particularly difficult. I like to think I'm quite intelligent, if not in a school sort of way. I also like to think I'm individual enough to say what I think and not change my views and opinions for the sake of fitting in.
I like cats. I had the most perfect cat in the world, but little Loa's still practising.
Call me heartless if you will, but I don't care about fucking bird flu. I don't particularly care about bombings of any sort in Iraq. I'm fed up with news programmes talking about all this stuff and saying things like "The entire nation was shocked by the July bombings" or "On behalf of the entire nation, I'd like to say that our prayers are with you". No they're not! I don't give a fuck if there's a flood in some remote area of some stupid country. Apparently we're all supposed to cry because a bunch of people we were never going to meet are dead, when the planet's over populated anyway?
I've got to stop or I'll start ranting.
I read a lot. I enjoy reading, I think reading's much more entertaining than watching television. I also believe that reading helps people to form their own opinions, and more people should read. Especially "kids today". And maybe there'd be less assholes in the world today if people had learned to think for themselves, rather than worrying about whether they sound cool infront of other people. I'll read pretty much anything.
I can't think of anymore right now, I'm sure I'll add some more complaining soon.
Oh, and I fucking hate when girls talk in baby talk. It doesn't make you sound cute. It makes you sound retarded. Grammar is "hawt". And so is spelling. So stop talking like dicks.
Feel free to add me to MSN if you want but if I don't like you you'll get deleted again sharpish; [email protected]
You're more punk, hardcore, mod, straightedge, emo, indie than me. Your hair is cooler, your pants are tighter, you have more tattoos. You have cooler pins on your messenger bag and your favourite band is more obscure than mine. Your shoes are more vintage and so is your t-shirt. You own more black clothes than me. Your glasses are thicker and blacker than mine, the plugs in your ears are bigger. You know more people in bands and your girl jeans are the envy of scenesters everywhere. Your pictures are blacker and whiter, and your myspace is better than mine. Your scene points are double, maybe even triple, mine. Because as we all know, that's what really matters. In a scene where the music has taken a backseat to the haircuts, you win and I lose.
