I got two modest mouse cds today. I like their words, and I like Wolf Parade’s words too (because they’re similar) even when they don’t mean anything they mean something.
It’s strange when I’m in my room, I can’t hear anything outside it because the fan is on 3 (it’s hot) and I’m watching a DVD or listening to music, and then hours later I open the door and the living room is full of people. I just find it strange that I was existing in this coccoon of alone-ness, and find there are people conversing and watching TV (always sitting around the TV). But this is why I don’t go out into the living room, because they are sitting around the TV. It’s so boring, most of the shows they have on are crap. Like the OC, what a load of crap! And Desperate Housewives! And Survivor! And all these shows people get excited about! Its all just boring unintelligent drivel. It’s like junk food for brains. The shows are getting worse by the year, because now we are in the golden age where no new concepts exist, and verything is just a regurgitated conglomerate of whatever the person who created it had seen in their lifetime (I had my own argument to counter this argument, but never mind because it’s too late and I’m tired.)
I’m going to work late again tomorrow. I can’t believe how hot it is! I can’t believe I keep undermining my own efforts at repaying my debts by buying shallow spend-happy consumer goods. Actually I can believe it. I have no concept of delayed gratification, as soon as I want something I buy it, just because I can. What a world we live in, eh? And with the new industrial reforms, well I suppose this is a terrible thing to get used to for when the time of the renewal of the Certified Agreement comes around! Hopefully I won’t be here then, I’ll be somewhere else entirely (meaning, not in Australia… The Lucky Country! “Luck will be temporarily unavailable for the next five to seven years. John Howard thanks you for voting Liberal!” YOU IDIOTS!) NO ONE will own up to voting for him, and yet he keeps getting voted in! Everyone says, “well, don’t look at me, I didn’t vote for him!” But that can’t be true because they won the election. Someone’s lyyyyyying because they’re ashaaaamed of the way the country is being run and all the problems that are caused when the leader has forgotten or never knew what it was like in the first place to be a blue-collar worker (just a hint: blue collar workers are the backbone of the economy which is what you’re so obsessed with you IDIOT) and therefore makes all his decisions based on what will be best for the economy when if he took a step further back in the food chain he’d see that what supports the economy is PEOPLE!
GOSH!
Anyway. I’m not a politician. I obviously can’t have an opinion on something I understand so little of. Except to say, I hope labour wins the next elections, even if they are leaderless and disorganised.
