So I’m informed that on leap day (which I swear has never been a thing before this year but that is what the internet has christened this weird little extra day we have) women are “allowed” to propose to men or some other vaguely sexist shit so, y’know, bitches line-up cuz I ain’t getting any younger/more desirable.

"[XXL's] selection is as diverse as its ever been... →
I don’t really give a shit about XXL’s Freshman cover but this take is pretty funny/accurate. The list is as mixed and just plain weird as you’d expect; like Yay! for Danny Brown and Don Trip (although freshmen?) but, er Machine Gun Kelly? Have people really already given up on the real Yelawolf so we need the 2.0? OK, whatever. (Actually, all the “Past Year’s...

TUMBLR JUST CHANGED SLIGHTLY
My crappy headphones are on the way out so I’m sitting here trying not to move my head too much because if I do one or both channels cut out momentarily; hopefully they make it through to the end of hot buttered soul or I’ll go to sleep annoyed rather than soothed by Isaac Hayes’ immortal tone. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll get a new pair, although I probably won’t even...

I wanted to make a post about how I think I’ll never do anything with my life and how I end everyday feeling live I’ve wasted it, but I also wanted to make a post about the serious Oreo craving I’ve got right now so this is both

I would rather watch a snuff film than The Artist
Can’t believe I was so down on new girl when it started; this episode has zooey deschanel in a bra and a subplot involving hair cut anxiety - what more do I want?
going to watch like five episodes of new girl because all paths inevitably lead to zooey deschanel

This evening I’m going to go make some pancakes and then get really angry at the Brit Awards for not awarding artists/musicians who align to my very specific tastes.
Blur playing the closing ceremony gig typifies what is wrong with our approach...
– Blur, The Olympics & The Never-ending 1990s Hangover - The Quietus
I am so not looking forward to the Olympics this summer - does anyone in a different time zone want to adopt me for a few weeks? - and this article articulates how its presentation is leaving a bad taste in my mouth, as well as...
Jay-Z & Kanye West playing Manchester on my birthday :D
Tickets are £62 :(
(Related: One of my all time gig “moments” came a few years ago when I saw Kanye West on the Graduation tour and he brought Jay-Z out and the entire arena went mental. This guy in front of me literally fainted - and that was only over them doing, like, three songs together. I assume a whole joint set would...

THIS WEEK IN TIPSY MATTHEW REVIEWS STUFF....
I watched Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy again this evening. It probably did not go up in my estimations but I think it held up on second viewing and is still one of my favourites from last year (although I see far too many decent films to make any type of list). I think it was a real shame that is lost out on so many awards at the BAFTAs though; it feels way too British to be successful at the Oscars...

– Under the “Hobbies, Interests and Additional Info” part of my CV. I hate having to try to pretend to be interesting and active when applying for a job. I’d be much more comfortable saying I spend most of my spare time posting shit online for strangers to ignore, but that’ll...
the world would be better if we lived in some sort of dystopian setting where you are assigned a job by machines and if you don’t want to do the job then you get vaporised
