......Egomaniac dislikes Abrahamic religions
......Egomaniac is Fountainhead
......Egomaniac is Man (or woman I don't mean it that way); Humanity as a species above all. As a wonderful bubble destined to burst for no reason as it was for no reason that it came about.
......Egomaniac is capitalism (or what was capitalism).
.......Egomaniac is the law of the survival of the fittest.
.......Egomaniac never wants to die. But he will. Probably from a self inflicted vice, or an angry Alabaman mob.
........Egomaniac is against the domestications of animals of no use.
........Egomaniac dislikes unconditional love.
........Egomaniac is happier when dogs are not around.
........Egomaniac doesn’t like camping, and generally finds the rural aesthetic dull.
........Egomaniac is better for many reasons and no reason at all.
........Egomaniac could do whatever anybody else can do, if he chose to.
........Egomaniac doesn’t want to be happy. He wants to be rich. Not to be happy, not buy the things he wants, but to be part of interesting processes where he perseveres through conflicts (inner and outer).
........Egomaniac thinks it is fucking great to be alive today rather than any other time in the past.
.........Egomaniac is not really an egomaniac, but only quite so.
..
..........Egomaniac is tired. Mediocrities like Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse, are admired as geniuses, just because their drug taking idiotic and spoiled behaviour brings reminiscence of the past rock 'n roll sub-products of 'antisocial' behaviour devoid of meaning and intellect, in a time where people dress as stupidly as Russell Brand, and the blood thirsty audiences crave for pathetic figurines of shadows of people with a life more ordinary than their own on reality shows, in a world of antismoking campaigns, vegetarian christian-morality propaganda on why it is sad for animals to die, anachronistic peace-loving naïve whining bout the good ol'days and natural living, in the age where the sapiens is at its least self aware, and at its most self-satisfied, with the vain perception that it is the most important species on the universe and should live forever, I am not even sure what point I am trying to make. Egomaniac is all about the confusion, and the lack of arguments that an angry man expresses when he knows he is right but his case does not hold water, and he is too angry to articulate an argument. He's on a rant. It's all about his Frustration Wrath Fury Anger Explosion Under Disproportionate Laughter Response (FWFAEUDLR). He is a self conscious bad guy with an old-man-syndrome, just because being good is so boring and cliche, and can't stand people singing about holding their girlfriend's hand rather than expressing their real desires. He likes to impose, impress, be the centre of attention, be admired, be loved, be hated, be worshiped, subvert, be desired. He is an asshole. He is an artist. He is a post-modern superhero without any superpowers. He has no power beyond his ego and his ambition to impose it upon you. He is the 21st century man. He is you. He is me. Furthermore, he disagrees with himself on everything he says.
................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Egomaniac is Dead. There is an urban legend that he committed suicide cause all the rock bands were now younger than him. Not true. As long as bands over 40 like U2 or the Stones or even the likes of Marilyn Manson are playing he would have considered himself the next big thing. He actually died in a tragic existential genetics experiment. (got shot in the head by a blind dyslexic tortoise with a predisposition to cake).
Didn't have that much more to say really (hence became a guinea pig). It was good while it lasted. I think it sounded good. Hopefully you will too. I used to think he had a lot to say. Now I think it is not that important. I like it. Bear with it.
It's much better that most.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4
Good to have you as a friend! So great to see the internet in action this way, shortening distances between people.
