[The Sad Punk]

I'm not too bad, just deciding what I'm going to have for tea. Who knows, I might even have a beer tonight, because I just saw a Today Tonight thing that basically just seemed to be one big Pure Blonde ad, then retracted that and stated that it has only 40 calories fewer than the average beer, which is pretty piss poor. But my throat isn't hurting so much right now, so a beer might just be in mind. Not a Pure Blonde, though. Haha, that shit is a joke.

What sort of pizza you got, Ax? A large moon?

 

[mysterious_jen]

I am immediately skeptical of anything called Pure Blonde. Is it the beer of pornstars or something?

I wish! Just grabbed a meatlovers from the supermarket, since the pizza place looked really busy and I didn't feel like sitting around for half an hour waiting for them to make me something. Also, worked out cheaper this way, so I grabbed myself some chocolate too.

Um yeah, it kind of is. Nah, it's an Australian low-carb lager. That's low-carb, not low-alcohol. It's 4.6%, I think. It's what a lot of blokes drink nowadays to get rid of their guts, even though it doesn't work. But yeah, it's kind of a girly beer too. I think it's rubbish, though.

Fair enough. I think my favourite pizza joint closed down. I'm not sure, I haven't seen it open since there was an armed hold-up there. It's a shame.

Mm, I think I'll go grab some spaghetti right now and make a hot sauce.

Ahh, right. God, now I just have these images in my mind of some pot-bellied bogan making awful, awful "pure blonde" double entendres.

Sounds like a good dinner.

I've started on the wine. I had a glass left of a different cabernet sauvignon, so I've decided to start with that. Not sure if I'll then move onto the cab sav I bought today or the pinot noir ...

 

[liamcool]

Sup?

 

[Axver]

Hey Liam. I was listening to The Cure's Untitled on the tram this afternoon. Hadn't played it in ages, since I associate it with when my Grandpa died. But it reminded me why I love the song so much. Just looking up tabs now ... sounds fairly simple to play, though I've found a few tabs and they quite starkly disagree.

 

[coolian2]

The beer talk made me duck downstairs for a Sassy Red.

 

[liamcool]

It's a six string bass song. Aside from that, really simple, yeah.

 

[coolian2]

Ax, what's my country in Nationstates 2 called? I need to log in.

 

[Axver]

Sassy Red sounds better than a Pure Blonde.

It's a six string bass song. Aside from that, really simple, yeah.

These are the guitar tabs I was looking at:
Untitled Tab by Cure @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
Untitled Tab (ver 2) by Cure @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
Untitled Tab (ver 3) by Cure @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com

Which do you reckon is closest? Or can I find better elsewhere?

 

[coolian2]

Wait, never mind.

 

[Axver]

Ax, what's my country in Nationstates 2 called? I need to log in.

Your country's fucked if you can't remember it.

It's Ianistan.

National Happenings

22 hours ago Axver is renowned both for its free speech rights and for its vitriolic hatred of foreigners and each other. Coincidence?

 

[coolian2]

Sassy Red sounds better than a Pure Blonde.

It's not a stunning name, especially when it's mentioned about the same time as Pure Blonde.

It's a nice beer, though.

And who wouldn't prefer a sassy red over a pure blonde?

 

[liamcool]

Last one, Ax.

REDHEADS.

Sassy Red at least doesn't sound like a vapid beer for porn stars.

Can't say I've tried it, though.

Or tried a sassy red.

Last one, Ax.

REDHEADS.

Cheers.

Knew you'd respond that way.

 

[liamcool]

 

[Axver]

Speaking of reds, just poured myself another glass of cabernet sauvignon. The one I bought today. Perhaps lacking in the depth and dryness of the one I just finished, but quite rich in flavour.

It is a good evening.

 

[Axver]

I enjoyed this, especially the Palin quote at the end: Obama’s Use of Complete Sentences Stirs Controversy - Borowitz Report

 

[coolian2]

So now that I have a computer with iTunes that doesn't make me want to kill myself I've started listening to more music.

I listened to an Anika Moa album last night, I caught some of The Corr's In Blue - I think that's the title - before my sister closed her iTunes earlier and I'm FINALLY listening to Stupid Dream.

YouTube - R.E.M. Harborcoat (07/10/85 Alabmahalle)

Fucking intense performance.

 

[liamcool]

Goddamnit, just got capped.

Awesome. Hope you enjoy Stupid Dream. I'll have to get my hands on an Anika Moa album or two so that I'm familiar with her work before I see her open for the Crowdies.

At the moment, I'm downloading a spreadsheet programme so that I can begin work updating the Superthread stats spreadsheet.

Michael Stipe is a strange, strange man.

I'm reaching the end of Don't Hate Me. I like it thus far. There's something strangely familiar about it - not U2 familiar, but it's taking me back to my friends etc from the late 90s. Weird.

University is over and you are living a badass life

 

[Axver]

Amazing performance though.

Yeah, pretty good.

You downloaded Life's Rich Pageant yet? Fall On Me, Cuyahoga, and The Flowers Of Guatemala are awesome songs.

Heh. The one PT album that really makes me think of other stuff is The Sky Moves Sideways, because it's just so obviously influenced by Pink Floyd. Glad you're enjoying it. Don't Hate Me is my least favourite song and I usually skip it, but I seem to be a minority in that opinion.

Oh yeah, I'm living it up alright! Actually, I'm nearly finished my third glass of cab sav, so maybe I shouldn't do spreadsheeting tonight ...
