30 Day Challenge? I Accept. (Part 1; 1-14)

I saw this posted by Jessica, and decided to jump on the bandwagon.

I can't imagine I'll end up doing it in 30 days to be honest, because some of the subjects aren't really substantial enough to warrant an entire post.

Actually, fuck it. I'll do them now; in this post!

Hopefully this won't be too boring, I'll try to keep it interesting if I remember.

---

1. The person you like and why you like them.

I don't really have much to say on this to be honest. When it comes to a love life; mine is far from existent at the moment, so there isn't really a person I like, as such. This might change sometime soon (I hope), but who knows?

2. A famous person you've been compared to.

I'm awful at thinking back to stuff like this. If you read this and have ever compared me to any celebrities, please don't hesitate to comment. All I can think of is Ricky saying I look like: Kate Nash, Emily from Skins (3 & 4) and basically any other girls with even slightly reddish or brown hair, who I find attractive. Supposedly only fancy girls that look like me?

3. 5 things that irritate you about the opposite sex/same sex.

Opposite sex:
1. When they wear tracksuits. It is really unattractive, no matter who you are. I appreciate that they are comfortable, but they look fucking awful. Crocs are supposed to be comfortable.
2. Screaming. I hate it when girls scream; you seem to get those girls who scream when they're scared, when they're happy, when they're excited. It's shrill and unnecessary and NOBODY likes it.
3. Easily offended. This is a bit of a generalisation, but most girls don't seem to get black humour. Anything even remotely offensive is reacted to in such an over-the-top way.
4. Being idiots. I don't mean 'all girls are idiots'. I'm saying that when girls act stupid, it irritates me. Dippy-ness and naivety (two traits that I unfortunately possess sometimes) are just unbearable.
5. Drunk girls. What?! But you can take advantage of them or something! First of all, what the hell, guys? But yeah, drunk girls are horrible. I can't really complain because I can be a huge pain after a few.

Same sex:
1. Chauvinism. Chauvinistic people are amongst the worst people ever. Acting 'manly' is just really cringe worthy and there is no respect for ANYBODY. You act like that, and you just look like a total fucking tool. "Me man, me strong."
2. Bitchiness. I know bitchiness is something generally attributed to girls, but that is part of the reason it's here. Guys are/can be just as bad if not worse, then have the nerve to complain that girls are bitchy.
3. Fashion. It is so difficult to get decent clothes in the high street shops sometimes. The fashions that come in for guys just look awful. Like those big knitted Christmas jumpers, and when fluorescent was big. Sometimes, I think it would be easier to be a girl or a proper cross dresser.
4. Constant One-Upmanship. It's like every guy has a really bad competitive streak and has something to prove by being better than someone else at something. No one is impressed.
5. Sports. Why is it generally considered to be a manly thing to like sports? Or that you have to like sports to be manly? I'm the manliest of the manly and I hate sports! Grrr! I'm oozing testosterone.

4. The best thing to happen to you this week.

I've actually had a fairly good week. Nothing major has really happened to make it good, but I've enjoyed it. I think the best thing to happen was probably playing Timepiece in Exeter on the weekend with my band, The Quincies. It was pretty busy, and there were people dancing and that. It was cool. Plus I just love being in Exeter; there is actually stuff to do, and it's clean. And a change of scenery is always appreciated.

5. Weird things you do when you're alone.

I don't think I really do all too many weird things when I'm alone. When I need a shave, sometimes I'll just sit around pulling single hairs off my face or neck. It's really satisfying; I'd imagine it feels the same as it would to pluck your eyebrows or something. Sometimes I sit upside down on the sofa or my bed, or my deckchair, or anywhere. I like to stretch loads, even when I don't need to. I don't think I do anything all too weird.

6. How you'd spend £10,000/$10,000.

Where to start?! I'd buy myself an Epiphone Wilshire Reissue and a Thinline Telecaster. I need a new amp. I'd get a car and learn how to drive it; I think I'd get one of those MGs from that cool garage. I'd go major clothes shopping. And then get really wasted. I'm not good with money, if you didn't guess.

7. Things you like/don't like about the way you look.

Like
1. My hair. This is only a 'sometimes' thing. I can occasionally get it looking really how I want it, but other times it just won't cooperate. On the whole, I quite like it though.
2. Hand shapes. It's a weird one, but I like the shape of my hands, they're really slender. I just wish they weren't so scuffed up, and were just generally a little better looked after. Although I haven't bit my nails in years!
3. 'quincie' tattoo. On the ol' chest and that. This is my favourite tattoo just because of what it means to me. Plus, it definitely helps that it looks so fucking cool.
4. Freckles on my thighs. Another weird one, and it's a bit difficult to explain properly, so I'll draw up a little picture. But there is a freckle that I have on both my thighs in exactly the same place, same size and that. I don't know why, but I really like that.

Don't Like

1. Lazy eye. I'm really self conscious about it, like I don't want it going off doing its own thing; I usually notice if it starts, but it's still annoying.

2. Weight. I'm not like really fat or anything, just a little on the unshapely side. I know everyone is a bit conscious of their weight, so I'm no different there. I should probably try doing something to shift it though, so I can't really complain.
3. Body hair. My body hair is so embarrassing. It's not the worst like chest hair I've ever seen, but it's definitely not the best. It just seems to go wherever it feels, and is just really embarrassing. And I don't shave my legs or arms...
4. Scars. My arms and hands are covered, mostly from stupid games at school. Deodorant burns, knuckles, chicken, molten plastic, etc. I don't mind the ones that are just sort of there, blending in, it's the ones that don't heal properly or don't lie flush with the rest of my skin.

8. Your last night out in detail.

I can't remember the last time I had a conventional 'night out'. I've been out and about, just pubs and that, but otherwise, it's kind of hard to think. I suppose the band at Timepiece could count, but I ended up leaving fairly early. I feel like an old man!

9. Something that makes you sad when you think about it.

I don't think I really have any real emotions any more. I don't think of something and then it makes me sad; I'll be sad at the actual thing, then I'll forget about it. Unless it's something in a film, which I obviously feel sad if I watch it again. I think for this, I'll count that bit from Lion King where Mufasa is on that rock and that, and Simba goes up that tree 'cause Scar is a bad man. Then Scar is all like, "Long live the King!" and throws Mufasa into all that trampling. He slinks off and then Simba is all sad because the king lived for about two seconds after being thrown off. Yeah, that gets me every time.

10. One thing you've lied about.

I'm a total Honest John, me. Well that was a lie, but I don't really lie all that much. I'm a good boy.

11. Would you rather be stranded on a desert island with someone you love for 10 years or someone you hate for a month? Keep in mind you gotta survive. Discuss.

Well that's a fairly lengthy question. I think the answer is pretty obvious if you actually spend any time whatsoever thinking about it. Let's get a little bit analytic, yeah? So you're on a desert island with someone you love for 10 years. Bear in mind that 10 years is actually quite a long time. Someone you love, I assume, is referencing either somebody that you are in a relationship with, someone you are related to, or a friend. People fall out with their friends, families and partners all the time; and that's when there's the opportunity to get away from that person. Escapism is the key. If you can't get away from somebody, you will end up hating them; you lose somebody you love and end up spending 9 years and 11 months with somebody you hate, as oppose to 1 month.
Choose the month. And if it really comes to it; you already hate that person, so use it as an excuse to fucking eat them. Survival and all that.

DESSERT Island! Geddit?! Do ya?!

12. Something you're currently worrying about.

Worrying about? Not me, I'm footloose and fancy free.

13. Name one person off Tumblr (blogspot) you'd throw off a cliff, one you'd marry and one you'd shag.

This just sounds like a really aggressive version of Snog, Marry, Avoid. I don't think I have the upper-body strength to throw somebody off a cliff, and even if I did, I don't think I would. I don't think I can really do this one very well on here; mainly because there are only two girls I know on here; Jessica & Karys. You can make the decision for me, if you really must.

14. Something disgusting you do.

I know it's considered to be somewhat of a normality for most people, but I think I'll probably have to say, 'use public toilets'. I hate them. I really fucking hate everything about them. I don't even use them for the ol' #2s, just for peeing. Public toilets really repulse me though, so that'll have to do for you.
