there is only one truth

i saw this following quote on a friends wall about i guess 20 odd years ago. it was printed on an old piece of paper as though it had been ripped out of a magazine. i loved it.

first thing i did when i went back to work was to put the phrase in a word document the same size as the one i saw – ie a4 landscape – i printed it and got it framed

for a reason i got reminded of this qoute today so i thought i’d google it as i figured it must have been quoted by someone and that she had liked it and stuck it up on her wall. as it turns out i can find absolutely no reference anywhere of anything even remotely similar –

so here’s the quote:

there is only one truth and that is that life under capitalism is shit and only drugs, loud music & fucking make it bearable:
capitalism_quote

still got the original piece of paper framed

a moan about nme’s new iphone app

ive been moaning to anyone at nme who will listen about them doing an iphone app for about a year

this morning nme announce that their app is now in the app store… but….

you have to pay for it..

if i could make this sentance any bigger i would

EJITS

the response i got back was “by having a charge (even a small one) means we can provide good offers later on – cheap tickets etc that we can’t do if free.”

BUT YOU DONT HAVE ANYTHING TO OFFER & 95% OF YOUR ONLINE AUDIENCE CANT PARTAKE ANYWAY

i’m sure the app is wonderful – now its just made me want to get into nefarious territory and spend tomorrow trying nicking the bloody thing – which can be done

its 2009 not 1989 – wake up you idiots
