^5

the 2nd one
i love chimps
i am going to primavera sound 2008
i am a member of the labour party
i have blue eyes
i'm going to say
you're not a member of the labour party...
The blue eyes.
It's still compulsory to be a member of the Labour party in Glasgow, right?!
nah i'm not a member (YET!)
although i wish i had brown eyes.
.
I am currently not lying.
I have only ever watched one episode of Skins
I really could do with Don Cab II on vinyl
I'm buggering off to Cornwall in a few days
OK:
- I believe that chimp-human hybrids are not only possible, but also preferable, as they would increase competition in the bodyguard market (being as chimp-human hybrids would obvs be much more agile and strong)
- I am told I spent the first year and a half of my life in Frimley, but I have no recollection of ever having done this.
- I have an avid interest and burgeoning faith in the beliefs of Pacific Islander cargo cults.
- 'Little League' is my favourite Cap'n Jazz song.
i am so with you on the first one
<3
I know, wouldn't it be wonderful?
Stalin tried it!
http://tinyurl.com/2qyjgv
thats very bulgakov
Do you reckon thats where he got the idea?
If so, how intimately do you reckon he was involved in the ape/man hybridization experiment?
i thinkheart of a dog was written before that
so they maybe stole the idea off his own satire of them haha
oow-ow-ooow-owow! Oh, look at me, I'm dying. There's a snowstorm
moaning a requiem for me in this doorway and I'm howling with it. I'm
finished. Some bastard in a dirty white cap - the cook in the office canteen
at the National Economic Council - spilled some boiling water and scalded my
left side. Filthy swine - and a proletarian, too. Christ, it hurts! That
boiling water scalded me right through to the bone. I can howl and howl, but
what's the use?
well
considering bulgakov's favoured stance under stalin's rule, that he moved to moscow in 1921 with his wife, and that the records of the animal breeding experiments began in the early-to-mid '20s, bulgakov could've mentioned it at a dinner party after a couple of wines and stalin might have latched onto it.
i love making answers from not very much...
it's still very plausable
what one was your lie?
"i drink tea"
when i don't. very cunning...
you don't drink tea?
i'm going to make a cup of tea now.
nope.
i know, i can't be properly indie now. i go to tchai ovna, but don't drink anything. scandalous.
i also go to tchai ovna
if you were cool (like me) you would get "arctic fire" because of what it sounds like.
Lie,
your favourite Cap'n Jazz song was obviously "Sometimes if you stand further away from something, it does not seem as big. Sometimes you can stand so close to something you can not tell what you are looking at."
Actually its 'Planet Shhh'!
SAD
i don't know if we can continue to be friendly if you're going to continue to be so hot on humanzees. sch'massive wrongness. (but wait til you get your mixtape to stop being hot on them.)
...
I write sins not tragedies
I am the resurrection
I shot the sheriff
I believe in symmetry
?
ummm errrrrr
I'm going to have to go with 2, because the second part of #3 is a smile, right?
...
- i've been to five different schools
- my dad was involved in a minor political scandal a couple of years ago
- i was born in ireland and lived there for the first four years of my life
- my youngest sister is autistic
hmm...
is it...2?
wrong!
damn it
but quite intriguing...i shan't pry and instead go for...em...3?
yup!
the political scandal wasn't actually anything hugely exciting... well, it kind of was, but he wasn't really majorly involved. it was to do with the whole tommy sheridan/news of the world court case.
aah, i see...
but, yay! i've guessed three lies, now! guess i'm good at reading people on the internet as well as in real life :)
Here's mine..
I have never watched any of the Bond movies, despite being film obsessed and working in a cinema (which is true).
I give a fiver a month to Dogs Trust.
I just had a burger for breakfast.
I am uninterested in ever learning to drive a car.
my 4
i once took a pee next to guy garvey
i have a semi-ironic "fan club" in tacoma, washington
