I'm off out tonight to run wild (or something) at The Point.  It's a great music venue, caters well to more alternative tastes than trashy pop/club venues full of cloned boyz n girlz in the town centre.

Looks like a great place.  It reminds me of a bar we used to go to in Notts City Centre that was in an old church.  Always had acoustic bands that played stuff I grew up with.  I really loved it.

I wasn't aware that the Welsh had legalized human cloning.  Why wasn't this covered on ET?!

Censorship.  It was covered, but Gonzales couldn't have we Yanks getting any ideas.

Which Gonzales? The old one or the new one?

Well I made it up. If I repeat it enough it becomes real though, right?  

I'm referring to all those girls/girlz (see, it makes it look trendier...) who I can't tell apart because their clothes are the same, the hair is the same colour and style, and they all wear so much make up that no original features are left.  They are the ones usually falling about in the middle of the street with hardly anything on at 2am in the freezing cold with drunk leery lads lurching at them.  It's grim.  Perhaps this is for one of DoDo's diaries.

Ah, I understand, and I know exactly the kind of girl you're on about. I mistook your reference for something else though, my fault.

I always wonder how they manage to wear so much makeup without:

a) wanting to scrape it all off after about five minutes,
b) getting some kind of poisoning as it leaches into their skin, and
c) realising how scary they look.

This place is a hippie magnet, isn't it?

I'm going back over to the Meta thread to complain about the rampant anti-fabulousness bias at ET.  ...Right after I touch up my lipstick.

Urh, you gender reactionary you! Your lipstick is the colour of blood, women's blood, from thousands of years of misogynistic oppression!

Actually, I just don't much like makeup. I would probably wear it more if I thought I needed it though...but I don't, so there. I like clothes more, but even then I somehow manage to get by without owning a single dress.

I guess I'm not very good at this whole girl thing. Sorry.

No need to apologize.  Or to be judgemental.

Looking like that has become the norm for that group though but still, they do look scary and false and I don't see how they think they look fab. What a terrible waste of time and effort...

Turns out I only needed them to roll me home after eating too much at the Wagamama that opened the other week. Mmm yum. One of my friends was ill and bailed out so I went out to eat with another friend.  Then I was too full and too tired to go jumping about to indie rock and went home in torrential rain, thunder and lightning. It was great.

Still a nice evening out even if not quite to plan.
