bone to pick

is what i typed into the subject line in order let three thousand know i want to win a copy of super wild horse's album because i love them and i really want it. i was grappling with myself about going to rats to see fearless vampire killers because it has been ages but i hate rats on account of a previous experience which i think i blogged about once, but possibly not. but basically it featured my friend getting mistaken for a trouble maker [he was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time] which resulted in him wrongly being dragged out of a mosh pit by his hair, then picked up in a bear hug and swung away from the crowd, resulting in him need 12 stitches in his head due to it colliding with a wall with brute, bouncer fueled force. and as much as i love fearless vampire killers, i don't think i like them enough to go against my morals and venture out to rats. but i did take that night off work remembering something else was on, and it is, the super wild horses album launch is on, so i will probably go to that.
i have a little song on my mind and if you sing it carly simon style it'll be quite nice to the mind tank.
you're so vain, you probably think this post is about you you're so lame, you probably think this post is about you don't you don't you?
you walk into a party, like you are walking onto a yacht, but i wouldn't really know this cos i wasn't invited to the party. but i heard it from my boy friend, who you don't know at all, but you just think you can txt him, think you can see him but... you're so lame, and he's too smart to even go for it. etc
yes, bragger again. they're moving soon and i think as soon as they're gone i will just delete delete delete so i don't have every little detail of their life popping up every time i log into facebook. i don't see how someone who spends so much time status updating can actually have anything to status update about because they clearly spend all of their time on their computer or phone.
not long now though because i herd they found a place so i won't have to suffer through the odd bump into, and i won't cross paths with said person on account of none of our mutual friends actual liking them either. phew.
i'm just a little sick of us having moved on from high school and still being is high school mode. that was one of the things i was most excited about when i finally graduated, escaping the pettiness. but it's still going on. ridic.
anyway. today i finished my office volunteering position at MIFF. frown. i had such a good two works and when i left every one was shouting out "just let us know when you want a job" and i said "i'd love a job now", so let's see how that goes. working for MIFF would be awesome.
yesterday a camera man came in to film some scenes of L. A. Zombie because it's been banned and obviously copies can't be given out, and he was filming quite a bit, so i watched, and i have to say, edward d. wood would be rolling in his grave over the decision to ban said film. the cult success of films such as wood's Plan 9 From Outer Space and tommy wiseau's The Room, which may not have been purposely terrible but are loved for their shlock value has inspired a whole generation of filmmakers who push the boundaries of taste and quality and make good films we love because of how bad they are. L. A. Zombie is purposely bad, looks incredibly fake and is made for a particular audience. it is an art film, it is not made to be put on at hoyts for a general audience. it is made to be screened at film festival's and enjoyed by crazy people like me. the australian classification board should be banned before they deport marina abramovic for indecent exposure...
anyway. i just saw an ad featuring a weirdly animated image of betty white gyrating awkwardly. i need to go and be sick about the fact that channel nine are allowed to do that.

  1. Kendal, whether or not this about me (call me paranoid, but I have a hunch that it is- I guess I am just vain like Carly said), I just want to point out one thing:

    You say, "i'm just a little sick of us having moved on from high school and still being is high school mode. that was one of the things i was most excited about when i finally graduated, escaping the pettiness. but it's still going on. ridic."
    And yet this post does little else but pettily make jibes at some apparently anonymous person.

    If it is about me, then just delete me from your Facebook now. Nothing is stopping you from doing that. And if it's about someone else, then if they annoy you enough to write this there doesn't seem to be much stopping you from cutting off contact with them either. It would make you a much bigger person to take that route than your current one of putting people down on your blog, but masking their identities with flimsy pseudonyms like "bragger".

    No-one likes to think that people hate them so much they resort to writing things like this, but considering many of the things about "bragger" relate to me so I'm just throwing my hands up and saying, delete me now. I won't text Josh to tell him about the death of a comic book artist we've had conversations about if you interpret that as me trying to become his best friend, or something of that nature.
    That's all I wanted to say- excuse my vanity if this wasn't about me at all, but I'm sure you can forgive me for assuming it was.
