Just looked through my mobile and there were of loads of names/numbers in my contacts that I havent got the foggiest idea as to who the hell they are. Dawn? Who the fuck is Dawn? Vicky? Huh? Emma Brown? Oh hang on, eww, I wish I could have forgotten about her.
SG is kind of the same for me. Apart from a core set of people Im sure a lot of people have drifted through my friends list and Im sure I exist on a lot of people's friend's list and they think "who is bateman?".
My mum lambasts me sometimes saying how stubborn I am and she goes "dammit, you're as stubborn as me!" and I've always been like that from an early age. One of my nicknames is Terr (short for terror) as whilst I was a mostly placid, sensitive kid I would cause hell if you tried to make me do something I didnt want to do. I dont find being in groups comforting and I feel like people willingly surrender their identities to be 'accepted', to be a team player. But where's the comfort in being part of a team if you cant be yourself? I see this a lot on SG and it saddens me as I think SG at its best is a joyous celebration of personality.
Jesus, bit deep today arent I? You know what, in about 6 hours time I will be in Islington (still gutted for Arsenal btw, couldnt concentrate on the Yeah Yeah Yeahs gig as I was checking the latest score on my phone) and be really pissed and really stupid.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
