About me: Yes, I'm going straight to Hell when I die. No, I don't care. Stop applying to accompany me on the way down, because I've found all the company I need. I'm in the company of heroes and Angels, and there's no way you can beat that.
...she burns, my eyes, she's the one standing by my side....
I'm Rooney. I aspire to make it as a musician, and/or to get myself published! I've been beavering away behind the scenes writing and practicing my craft for years now, and I'm just gathering the pieces together to submit to my chosen publisher (Black Library, if anyone's interested). Should, by some miracle, I get published, I expect everyone to rush out and immediately purchase at least a dozen copies. In the mean time, you can get a taster here: http://thetalkingtomyselfplace.blogspot.com/
I do have one saving grace.... my girlfriend! Not only is she one of the greatest people in the history of mankind, but she also elevates me from being the sort of ---- you people all sneer at and despise. So you can all go to Hell, 'cause she's better than you!
I also like to chat bollocks for ages. And talk rubbish as well, according to Goons Mum, at least.
I like to drink. Alcohol, as well as non-alcoholic beverages. Drugs are a choice, a choice I make every time I take them. I like to drive fast, and play my music loud. I'm not a violent man, unless truly provoked, which doesn't happen too often any more. I'm a bit of a geek, being a HUGE Star Wars fan, deeply into the Lord of the Rings (Peter Jackson tried valiantly, but can anyone really fit the whole saga into three films, without bankrupting themselves?), I'm more than just a li'l obsessive over Firefly and Serenity, and I'm a minor fan of Neon Genesis Evangelion. If you don't know what that is, I ain't going to tell you.
I love buying clothes too. I have a far larger wardrobe of clothing than is healthy for any straight, 26 year old male. I adore vintage clothing, and spend far more money on it than I probably should. In fact, most of my disposable income goes on clothing...
Rooney's not my real name, but so many people know me as Rooney that it may as well be.
...all my best made plans just dismissed out of hand, though you're burning the deck, here I make my last stand...
I read an obscene amount. Mostly novels, but an interesting Treatise or paper is equally as likely to snag my attention.
... they'll chain me to Hell, or poison your soul but it seems to rebel is obscene, just stay home and get lean, live in your mind but don't live out your dreams...
Who I'd like to meet:
Noel Gallagher, Liam Gallagher, Carl Barat, Pete Doherty, Han Solo,
Salma Hayek, Keira Knightley, Jarvis Cocker, Brian Molko, Michael Caine, and Peaches Geldof.
Oh, and Dan Abnett!
Rooney. I realised something today. You're almost basically a calmer version of Christian Bale...only I've never seen you flip out like he did on set, oh and also he doesn't have ubergeeky knowledge of sci fi and such like you do. So maybe this comment is futile. Like life itself. Who knows.
The moral of this tale is I hope you're well and that Aimee is well etc xxx
I DONT SMELL....well maybe a bit but thats not the point all students do!!!! yea do it do it do it...why a bad picture nobody elses are!!!!! even dals is respectable enough lol
Haha... I'm pretty sure Lydon isn't capable of writing in the style of the artists you just named..... But his stuff is much more meaninful to me ! Maybe you need to have another listen ? :P x
hahaha that could be true, but I think we both know you're the one that gets Aimee to wear a fatsuit and a strap on and rape you whilst making butch lesbian grunting sounds and shaking her fake cellulite in your face like Shamu having an epileptic fit at seaworld and then all the kids in the crowd cry and drop their icecreams and the parents complain and get refunds for the Seaworld show and you love every second of it
I went too far. Why do I always go too far. Maybe I should type somethign nice to compensate...erm...Hi? x
What about a snail? Tee hee. Just kidding. Yeah we are actually doing something, i'm excited lol. Burrrrp. I can't find my laptop bag... I found a bag that I can use instead and two stupid rats have eaten through parts of it. Grrrrrr xxx
Wow they are leaving early! I been making a list of where in London I want to go and we can organise tomorow. Ok i'll bring something fancy to wear... I say fancy... lol. Can I bring the guinea pigs with me? I bring them in a handbag?
