I changed my MSN name to one of my favourite quotes:
“If you don’t like your life, you can change it!”
My interpretation (ok it’s not the deepest message to interpret) is that you have the power to do whatever you want to do in your own life. You don’t need to do the same boring-ass job every day just to get paid. You don’t need to live somewhere you hate with people you hate (I swear I’m not talking about you Oytun/Dalan/Jme lub lub). You don’t need to stay with your boyfriend if he’s a dickhead. You don’t need to stay with your girlfriend if she doesn’t give blowjobs understand you.
Sometimes people get trapped in situations they don’t like because they don’t feel enough power (empowerment?) to believe in themselves. Well I’m telling you now - IF YOU DON’T LIKE YOUR LIFE YOU CAN CHANGE IT! Now stop moaning and start doing.
Oh yeah, more importantly it means, if you are showing signs of a receding hairline YOU CAN BUY A WIG!
You hate me coz you ain’t me
The sword is mightier than the wig
Blades (blondes) have more pun (fun). sorry
Gomu gomu gomu NINJA!
Have you ever looked at a graph and been really suprised by what you saw?
When I read the headline ‘Official: Lite is London’s favourite with 1,021,000 readers each day’ I was not suprised, and glancing at the graphs (above) it was obvious…thelondonpaper was getting humped by London Lite. Or was it…?
I don’t generally read the stories in London Lite (the pictures are much more entertaining), but following its constant battle with thelondonpaper has been a guilty pleasure of mine. I decided to have a look at the figures a bit closer, and something didn’t add up. The figures in the graph in the bottom right (15 to 44 year olds) were really close…just 6,000 difference between the two papers (out of 802,000 (0.75%)), yet the graph seemed to suggest something different (it looked like it could be up to a 200,000 difference).
Looking at the the other graphs, it seemed like all of the graphs were wrong. I decided to draw the graphs myself, using their figures, to see how wrong they were. Here’s what the readership figures should look like:
Apologies for the crappy quality!
Quite a difference. So is London Lite deliberately misleading its readers with these graphs? I’m sure they will claim that the images behind the figures are not graphs, but simply there for decoration…but it looks to me like they are misrepresenting what is obviously an extremely close fight for free paper dominance on the streets of London.
My editorial opinion? For once it seems like the blood (ink) is on the London Lite’s hands.
I’ve been trying to think of an epic opening for this
entry but i cant think of one except that tonight was really fucked up.
we went to a party (mariatzel, joss, me zotos, elisa, lots of others)
first which was ok, pretty cool, relaxed, then went to Notre Dame. I
wanted to get a lift home from Nanou (the bar owner) so me and
Mariatzel stayed there after it closed at 2am. We were standing outside
the bar when two cars pulled up outside, the first with 4 guys in it
and the second with 2 girls. It seemed like on of the guys had lost
their phone or some shit because the first two guys in the first car
jumped out, ran off and gave the keys to the the other two. at first i
thought (honestly) that they were being followed by police, that’s why
they ran, but the other two guys seemed relaxed, just got in the front
and seemed like they were going to drive off (coz they were blocking
the road). anyway the new driver guy couldn’t start the car because it
had an immobilizer on it which he couldnt work out, we (who were
standing outside the bar) were even giggling at this…then the first
two guys who originally ran off came back and resumed their positions.
everyhting normal so far. anyway then this one guy says ‘let’s get out
of here, i hate being near these french fucks. fuck france’. Nanou
started giggling at this, so the guy who said it like jumped out of the
car and started slagging him off ‘fuck you, fuck your mother, i’ll
fucking kill you’ etc. Nanou is immediately on the phone to braheim
(his brother who owns the Couche
Tard) and tells him to get the
fuck over here…meanwhile another of the guys gets out of the car and
starts slagging nanou and pat (the guy who works the door at ND) off. A
thirs guy gets out of the car and tries to calm these two down (because
i think he knew nanou or somehting, or at least knew not to fuck with
him) but this first guy (about 6′1″, built, black, black leather jacket
with ‘Redskins’ written across it) pulls out this fucking foot long
metal weapon (later described as a bushido weapon by this french guy
who was there) and starts waving it around. the whole time i’m kind of
in a dream state, as if i’m watching it all on tv. i had my arms around
mariatzel at the time and all i could think was that it was ok because
we were together so nothing was going to happen. eventually the guy
with the stick gets in the car, all the time staring at nanou (who is
getting pissed off because brheim the fucking thai boxing champion
asskicker hasnt turned up yet). so they dirve off, just as braheim
arrives…anyway nanou was so mad, madder than i’ve ever seen him, and
i am just still a bit pickled even though i’m at home (and M is in the
shower). fuck i hate people sometimes. just makes you want to stay at
fucking home all day.
green laguna, ??? ANT 38 - i did get the rest of the licence plate but i forgot it. fuck them.
