2013 is Over. So What?

Everything is supposed to change because the number at the end of the date you don't write in your school book anymore has changed. If you're reading this and do still have a school book that is frequently updated I suggest you look elsewhere.
Of course like everyone else I've had an interesting year (I can't list the best things, if you know you know) but why is it significant that it happened within the months ending with '13.' It's just numbers.

AND LASTLY

Why do people say 'HAPPY NEW YEAR' as soon as the clock strikes midnight, the year has just started who are you to tell me it's happy. My family could all get gunned down by feral Romanian children in the early hours of the morning and that would be a terrible way to start the new year. Don't say stupid things. If anything just say 'New Year' but I understand how the concept of time works so you're just wasting words there. Just be quiet. Imagine that.
Bye.

What If?

Jamie Woon is Burial?

Well it isn't Will Bevan is it. Because www.williambevan.co.uk being a funeral directors is just too much of a ridiculous coincidence. I have no conclusive evidence at all, which is fine. But as I was on the bus earlier this evening listening to Rival Dealer & the windows fogged up (so I was frightfully close to missing my stop and having to walk another 500 yards) I thought what if Jamie Woon is Burial? 
Jamie Woon has been pretty much AWOL since the release of Mirrorwriting in 2011, bar a guest spot on Disclosure's album back in June. In the last couple of years Burial has been busier than ever; Street Halo (2011) Kindred (2012) Truant/ Rough Sleeper (2012) and Rival Dealer just a few days ago. Of course that is the loosest sort of link possible, that's like saying Hugh Grant could be Burial because he hasn't done much lately. But unlike Grant and Burial, Burial and Woon have worked together. In 2006/7 Woon's Wayfaring Stranger was remixed by Burial and he later co-produced Mirrorwriting's lead single Night Air. So the two obviously know each other, unless they are one and the same.
That's all I have. Once (if) I have more to go on I'll add it back here. But probably not.

I can not be an arse hole at times too.

I am sad that Mandela has died. But if you had to Google 'inspirational Mandela quotes' for something to put on your Twitter feed that's almost the same as having to ask another family member for the name of the person's funeral you're attending. As a general observation however, those mourning Mandela's death are much better spellers than those who were sad about Paul Walker's.
Sadly the idiots are still about, Arsenal's Jack Wilshere tweeted this: "RIP Mr Mandela.....your deserve it! Inspired a generation......." which people mis-read as him being glad Mandela was dead.

The man was 95 however, which is a grand age for anyone, and when you look at the life Mandela lead and the things he achieved, it's really not that sad at all. His life was a pretty well documented success story, but sadly we all die.
Although it may have been inevitable once Aaron Ramsey started scoring so many goals.

Danny Murphy Is Making Me Angry

Because

He doesn't think Arsenal are going to win the league. Which is fair enough, I don't think Arsenal are going to win the league (and I'm an Arsenal fan) but can't he just say that. Presumably Danny Murphy isn't very stupid, or even stupid at all, as he has no became a regular pundit for the Beeb. SO why can't he just say 'I don't think Arsenal will win the league because they never do.' ? That would be fair enough. But instead he hides behind the 'oh they haven't won any big games' excuse. Well, we made Spurs look distinctively average when people were saying they've made so many brilliant signings that they are real contenders but because Arsenal beat them it's not a big game. We also beat Liverpool who until earlier were second. We lost to Chelsea, in the least important competition ever. And United beat us 1-0, United, how it looks now aren't even a big team. So Mr Murphy why are you using terrible excuses instead of just saying what you think. Oh we beat Dortmund away too, and Napoli. FYI.

Take a leaf out of Les Ferdinand's book, he made his MOTD debut last night and was much more cohesive than you. Big Les said basically he doesn't know if they can win the league (Fair play, he's an ex-footballer not Mystic Meg) but if they can provide cover for Giroud in January they can be a real threat because if he gets injured then Arsenal are fucked. (Again, fair play.) So Les, you win at MOTD. It annoys me when people who are paid to say intelligent stuff say stupid stuff. It's like being paid to build a house but then knocking down next door's garage instead. Sort of. Not really.

Lastly, today was the first time in a long time where Liverpool have lost to a shit team and I can't say it's because Liverpool are shit. Because they really aren't.

Double lastly, Royal Blood are very good at making music aren't they. Fair play to them for making lous music that isn't just fuzzy shit. Kudos.
