I'm pretty cynical and bitter before my time I think, and I need a place to vent my petty frustrations...

One thing that reoccurred today for the nth time was an asterisk in a piece of text* which had no counterpart anywhere to be seen. I spent a good few minutes hunting for it. Either someone likes playing jokes or I'm just terrible at "Where's Wally?"

Oh yes, and having just restarted college and needing to take a bus there, I've rediscovered hatred for loud chart topping (god only knows why) music. What ever happened to indie/alt or just plain rock music getting it's say in the charts?

Also colds.

I agree with the asterisk thing. It doesn't make me rage, but it's often a head-scratcher.

The charts have always been mainly pop, because that's what pop means.
I'm told what subgenre it is goes in 13 year cycles. We recently had rock followed by indie. Now it's sort of urban hiphop, I think. I don't know.

I've noticed that since the early 90s retro has been catching up. Back then the 60s were fashionable. It's been slowly creeping up, but faster than real time, so now the mid 90s stuff is fashionable. I wonder what will happen when last year's music becomes retro. Or new music.

I treat unreferenced asterisks as ! symbols, or logical NOTs.

Thus "100 free* stuffs" becomes "100 !free stuffs", or:

100 free* stuffs

*not free

It's like "terms and conditions apply" written really small in an asterisk shape.

In other news, I saw an advert for a College on a bus the other day, which amused a bit, it said: "Great terms and conditions. Apply."

Oh yes, i agree with this many times over. I used to set my alarm clock to radio 1 in the mornings and, honestly, the only reason i got out of bed to turn it off was so i didn't have to listen to the inane drivel from Chris-fucking-Moyles and the cookie-cutter shite that passed for music.

I did like how Sandi Toksvig described Fern Cotton's radio show on the recent News Quiz "It's like listening to somebody who has never seen cutlery and showing them a spoon."

Protip: 6music. What a godsend.

I wake up to the not so dulcet tones of moyles. I think my ears have developed a protective film to it all as I rarely hear any actual words and just interpret it as mumbling, possibly it actually sounds like that.

Has to be Radio 2 for me... maybe it's my age...

Charts need to be a little more specific. I throw up a little every time I see some faaabulous retard like guetta topping THE CHART.

There should be a top chart like now, but also a real variety such as metal, rock, alternative, real pop, hip-hop, gangsta rap (although we really don't need charts for these, they're all very bad, I mean the best rap I've heard in years was on fucking Whose Line), techno, disco, and so on.

Except Ginger Twat has made that equally obnoxious repetetive shite now as well. I've resolved myself to listening to Radio 4 all the way to work and back nowadays. I can quote the news, it's scary.

What's real pop?

Although no one is perfect, in how people are not perfect good. But if we do avoid weaknesses,FFXIV powerleveling so that their landscaping themselves. Do our best. Then it can be the perfect personal.
"People have sorrow, month also wanes." People in this life there are always undesirable. Is not always perfect. We can only do our best. A lot of things we are striving for perfection, and the result is often just fine. Person's life, the hardest thing is just right! Going one step further, what happens next step? No one will know, in short, that is just right! Put the "just right" as the pursuit of a goal in life now! As long as you can do everything "just right" then you have to do a self-perfection.
Mao old once said: "modest progress." Lot of things is not our birthright. A lot of things go through our own to learn, to fight for. Humility to learn, ask. Give yourself something more; that life is not poor; make their own efforts to become a "renaissance man." Yourself to do better. Perfect self. To take other people's strengths complement your weaknesses.
As a contemporary high school students, we are just learning it. We also do self-perfection. To school to learn not only knowledge from. We have also come to learn how to behave, learn morality from. In school, FFXIV powerleveling we can also learn the strengths of the students to make their own shortcomings. Not only learn to do good, but also moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, everything good workers to improve themselves. Pursuit of perfection, no one would like, but the mind must be set correctly. To from an early age, hope to be healthy growth.
Let us work together, with the pursuit of perfection. Be a perfect self and perfect self-it!
