    I am full of First World Whinges!

    We've decided it's Christmas, and one of my flatmates is playing Christmas music. No complaints there. But my flatmate's choice of music is beyond awful. So much new stuff - Justin fucking Bieber for a start! - and she's skipped Fairytale of New York and the original Band Aid! At home, we've had the same album since 2003 and it's so much fun digging it out again. If a song isn't on that album - and there are three discs - it is Not Acceptable.

    Michael Buble can fuck off.

    Yeah I have to agree with you there!! That sounds terrible, defos not acceptable to be playing Justin Beiber or Michael Buble at Christmas time... Never gonna happen in my house!

    I love Fairytale of New York and the original Band Aid's Do They Know It's Christmas. Last Christmas by Wham and When A Child Is Born by Johnny Mathis are two of my faves...! All feel good Christmas songs.

    I hope your flatmate will play some better music for you soon.

    Couldn't get the yoghurt I wanted at the local shop, and it appears that I purchased a box of massacred Fruit Jellies. *sigh*

    I'm slightly offended at your anti-Canadian agenda.

    Never!

    Also I will never feel bad for being anti-Bieber.

    Just watched a youtube video that initially looked pretty interesting, topic was How to Make a Ring Out of a Coin.

    Turns out that step one was to own several thousand dollars worth machinery and tools designed to make rings out of coins...

    Now why didn't I think of that?

    If that's his one redeeming feature, it's too bad for him that it doesn't work on the radio.

    His other physical features aren't too bad either. And his singing is fine except for the dumb pop lyrics. Too many wasted potentials in pop music singing dumb unoriginal songs. Taylor Swift has proven that with how good she can be when her songs are actually creative and not annoying.

    That's of course what everyone in Middle-earth said when Sauron showed off his latest bit of bling.

    The youtube "Related videos" algorithm is broken. Not that it's not returning music I like, but I fail to see how Puttin' out the Fire with Gasoline by David Bowie is the first "related" song to Chris Isaak, Pink Floyd, Sophie B. Hawkins, Edie Brickell, and Mini-Moni... no matter what "mix" I select it defaults back to Bowie, Queen, and Floyd. All fine musicians, all in my favorites, but sometimes I just want to listen to something with a different vibe.

    Just google "justin bieber nude." Turn on safe search/incognito/VPN or whatever you need to when you look for young men nude, it's there.

    Or did you mean a picture of my androphile friend holding their phone out to me and giggling? Sorry, forgot to memorialize that moment.

    The Loathesome Furniture Store delivered my king-size Bed today, but they made a Mistake. This Mistake was that the side rails don't support the mattress high enough, which means the drawers under the Bed don't fit. They shipped the wrong side rails. This is a horrible Mistake and they were unable to complete the assembly of my Bed. So now the headboard is leaning against the wall, the footboard is hiding amongst empty boxes along another wall, and the mattress and foundation are on the floor, waiting to be slept on if only they were elevated to the proper Altitude.

    There appears to be no way to ascertain the delivery date of the correct side rails. Urgh. My frustrate! I outrage!
