Yes, it's morning again which means it's time for yet more procrastination instead of doing work/research/other. Which Revenge of the Sith Character are you? I'm equal parts Darth and Padme. It's a fine line between good and evil.

...Happily I get to find a new religion every day with the portable and cheerful Plug-Pray! So blasphemous that 9/10 Christian fundamentalists would burn down your house if you bought one.
The problem with being enthusiastic and desperate on the weekends means that when you actually come into college, there's no damn paper. I found one scrap of it lurking in the depths of the printer with a link to something called prismcomics.org on it.

"Comics eh?" sez I, still revelling in the fact that a recently purchased back issue of Essential X-Men had a letter of mine in it, "That sounds significantly better than whatever it was I was doing." So I read several witty, informative and screwy pieces on Supergirl, whether the Human Torch is actually as gay as he's presented, the utterly terrifying "Family Values" Coalitions in the States and their battles against gay comic characters and about a two-part issue of the Green Lantern focusing on gay hate crimes.

Prism is a site focusing on LGBT representation and undertones in comics with as much adoration for the format as any fanboy worth their salt. It's not geeky, nor pedantic, it is however bloody addictive. I'm clearly not going to get any work done today...

What's the deal with the 350 german spam messages I got today? Is someone on some kind of crusade to bring German magazines to public consciousness? It's bloody anooying is what it is. Oh well, at least the new Coral song is ace. Good for that.

The boring revision frenzy of yesterday has dwindled into the frenzied playing of the truly awesome Spongebob Collapse. 1,518,980 to beat. Game on suckas...

What was number 1 when you were born? Yes we care. I care. I got Culture Club and the theme from that Debra Winger navy flick. Rock!

Oh god my head hurts. People should not be allowed to use computers when they're drunk.
Trumpeting removed for being stupidly arrogant. More so even than usual.
[[[WARNING WARNING]]]]

I'm going to have a trumpet blowing session in a minute. Possibly with a brass section. So if you don't like it, go away. I'm 22 and have the shame of a lemon. And the ego of a 22 year old. Just so you're warned sufficiently - this is nice things about ME! Me! Me! Oh yes, me as well.

This is so incredibly wrong i think it's going through my head and out the other side, but hey, otters are best, and clearly the person who wrote sex tips for otters thought so too.
Do you love horses? Do you want to get some, but you just don't love your hors that much? There's a solution! Why not date tens of thousands of single horse lovers? It's actually rather sweet...
Green eh? Would have been nice to get someone who actually stood a chance of getting elected ;) Oh well, guess this means I'm going to have to rely on actual knowledge on Thursday.

Who Should You Vote For?

Who should I vote for? v2

Your expected outcome:

Liberal Democrat


Your actual outcome:



Labour 9
Conservative 8
Liberal Democrat 47
UKIP 10
Green 55


You should vote: Green

The Green Party, which is of course strong on environmental issues, takes a strong position on welfare issues, but was firmly against the war in Iraq. Other key concerns are cannabis, where the party takes a liberal line, and foxhunting, which unsurprisingly the Greens are firmly against. The Greens are also anti-Europe.

Something I never knew: Doctors is a training academy for new writers! I thought it was getting better... Even more lovely, Wednesday's episode is written by a tv critic from the Guardian! Read about it here because it's rather fab.
