Notes about Nothing - 26/08/2008

[harithekid]

Yeah, I decided to take a page out of the livejournal owned by purely_narcotic and let my meandering thoughts be compressed such that different ones could fit into the same post. The only difference is that, my posts, pretty much like all episodes in all seasons of Seinfeld are about nothing.

When the f*** did I give you any such birthday present?
Is that the story you are now claiming to hide up all the damning evidence Kodhi found in your house (and from what I've heard, that rough guide to Chick Flicks, and the several chick flick DVDs including 'How to lose a guy in 10 days' was just the tip of the iceberg)

[harithekid]

yes. for sure. What about your signature and the 'belated birthday wishes' text in YOUR OWN HANDWRITING on the front of the book?

[thedilettante]

And what is wrong with The Rough Guide to Chick Flicks?

[harithekid]

oh, when friends like Kodhi and Monkee don't need 'Rough Guide to Chick Flicks' to call me woooman (something Kodhi calls Monkee as well), the fact that I have that book adds further fuel to the fire. Kodhi's countenance (and his comments thereafter) at having seen that book on my shelf the day he came home said it all.

The book in itself is quite fun to read on a sporadic basis, I must admit.

[thedilettante]

I get called woomaan all the time. It doesn't bother me.

Also, I would have expected Kodhi to want to borrow the book. It sounds like his sort of thing.

[harithekid]

um, because you ARE a woooman??

And total and absolute agreement on the Kodhi liking that book. I just put fundaes to Madman about a surprise for Kodhi, that he might give you more gyaan about.

could think just one more video of theirs that came to mind that everyone has seen and heard of.
...and they don't even get the royalty for the song, do they?
(Where's the triva, oh! Trivia Buff?)

[purely_narcotic]

Is it called royalty or 'financial rewards' in the music world?

[harithekid]

oh yes, you're referring to 'The Last Time', I somehow didn't mention it cause it slipped my mind. Also, to be perfectly honest, I am not sure which of the two are used, because I think I've heard people use both interchangably.

Just noticed on the wiki page that Richard Ashcroft said "This was the best song Jagger and Richards had written in twenty years." Tongue-in-cheek are there.

[purely_narcotic]

Yeah which made its way into Bittersweet Symphony. Apparently Ashcroft also dedicated the song to Mick Jagger and Keith Richards at a gig at the Sage Gateshead in Gateshead. After an audience member booed, Ashcroft exclaimed, "Don't boo, man. As long as I can play this song I'm happy to pay a few of those guys' bills."

What do they say about the British sense of humour? :D
