It’s been 16 days since my last post, here’s what’s been playing around in my head. 16 to be precise. What a coincidence:
1. number9dream is one of the best books i’ve ever read. David Mitchell takes the whole “stream of conscience” routine and turns it around on its head. Sorry Hemingway, you’ve been bested.
2. Preppy kids donning t-shirts in support of the city post-26/11 protesting because they think it’s the “kewl” thing to do. Oh well, at least someone’s going to get laid. Or get some phone numbers.
3. Prince of Persia is awesome. Some of the most inspired and well thought out design and art-style i’ve seen since, well, the Shadow of the Colossus. Definitely one of the better games of this generation. Kudos to you, Ubisoft Montreal.
4. For a 10 year old album, Foo Fighter’s The Color and The Shape still sounds extremely good. Maybe it’s something about that era, that’s so timeless. Like bad haircuts perhaps?
5. Speaking of haircuts, i finally got one. Damn stylist left it uneven on the sides, makes a good case for me saying i cut it myself. Yes i am self-obsessed.
6. Work is great. The people are swell. But if some random dude is going to ask a status update on tasks that he’s gone out of his way to cockblock, well, fuck off.
7. The Dark Knight Blu Ray is godlike. i think i’ll finally start thinking about building up a decent movie collection if this is the quality i’m paying for. So so worth it.
8. An0 is back in town. For all the bitchery, fights, mudslinging, lowballing and rubbish we’ve heaped on each other, i miss the gal and glad she’s back (no sarcasm on this one, pinkie and PS3 swear).
9. Exes are hell. Especially when they text you at god forsaken hours of the night expecting you to be the bloody bedrock of their existence all while they bitchslap you into oblivion.
10. For all his presidential antics, Bush ducks shoes like Neo on caffienne. Gotta hand it to him even if he did have it coming.
11. The flash game on the aforementioned antic is pretty sweet.
12. To all my friends: no i am not seeing anyone, so just drop it please? When and if that happens, rest assured you shall all know.
13. Ice cold Redbull is the breakfast of champions. Believe.
14. Subjecting a friend to the harassment of having his mug shot photoshopped by a cabal of talented, like-minded souls leads to epic results like this:
15. Lemon Vodka and Seven Up doesn’t get you drunk. Unless the cup you’re having it in is large enough to give a full-sized adult elephant an inferiority complex.
16. There is no 16.
