Oh wow. That is more depressing than any Joy Division song.

who puts this type of bollox together

for fuck sake -- true to the real world -- if you are living in the world then you ARE IN THE FUCKING REAL WORLD -What do they think -- that the rest of us are cartoon charaters

Just come out with and say he is not a knob

And who the fuck is MIA
And Karen O is not new or innovative - she is a sham

There is too much reality crap on TV and in the media nowdays - too much focus on being famous ...

I miss the day when being in a band or an actor or a writer had an air of mystique -- nowdays it is all image and a good advert to go with it

BOLLOX

When I was growing up if you wore a pair of converse you where broke and couldn't afford a decent pair of runnuers (sneakers or trainers to the rest of you) -- or if you lie in cork I believe they call them rubber dollies -- or maybe that was something else

RANT OVER

I like M.I.A.

My favorite lyric

I checked that mouth on 'im
fuckin' checked that gas on 'im
I had 'im, cornered 'im
fuckin' shut that gate on 'im

Pro Keds were preferred, but Converse was acceptable. Everything else were "skips."

No, you're right! Rubber dollies was the word. It's not really used anymore, though.
