Martin’s A-Z Of Hate Volume 2 – Part 1
Yeah, so I’m suffering from a creative block at the moment. So what better way to get yourself out of a rut than to lazily revisit an idea you already did!
A – ASDA FM
I work the night shift at Asda. It is generally a half decent place to work, but the store’s own radio station makes me want to rip my ears off. I’m sure during the day it’s tolerable, but at night all the DJs go home so it’s like “right, let’s just stick this thing on a loop” and off they pop. Every single night they play the same songs, in a very slightly different order to give off the illusion of it being different. There are a few good songs in there as well but after hearing them every night for three months you begin to get slightly tired of them. The only song I’ve found to be the exception is “A Little Less Conversation” by Elvis vs Junkie XL, which is just an awesome song.
B – Barrowman, John
Seriously, just get off the telly already. This guy will appear on anything and everything. And what’s the deal with the accent? Isn’t he from Glasgow or some such? What a knob.
C – Compare, Go
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
D – Dylan, Bob
Boring. And the harmonica is for girls.
E – Election, General
It’s that time again, soon we will all be in the polling stations deciding which group of middle class, London-centric tossers we want in charge for the next four years. It’s an exciting time in many ways, particularly as it looks like actually being close this time. But in other ways it is crap. Firstly, if I vote I’ll run the risk of being called up for jury duty in the future. I do not want this. What if I get a case involving gangsters and they know I voted guilty and come and fuck me up? I think I’ll just declare myself prejudiced against all races and sexualities so they don’t choose me. Secondly, a lot of people say “blah blah you must vote, it’s your duty yadda yadda”, whereas I take the opposite view. I think the majority of people SHOULDN’T vote. I don’t consider myself an expert on politics by any means but I feel I know enough to get by. The average chav in the high street, what the frig do they know? People who are thick or misinformed should not be allowed to potentially hold this country’s short term future in their hands. In the polling stations they should have a general knowledge politics quiz that you have to pass before being allowed to vote.
F – Foo Fighters
They used to be my second favourite band in about 2004 but then ‘In Your Honor’ came out and it sucked and since then I’ve gone off them more and more. I don’t know if it’s just that my tastes have changed or what but now I find them to be one of the more bland rock outfits around, and that’s saying something because modern rock music is generally pish.
