Was hearing a song by French band Noir Desir, when my teacher hears it, and asks me:

You know that Bertrand Cantat (the leader of the band) killed a very good friend of mine ?

It took me some very long minutes to get my head together, and change the music, while giving him some sympathetic smile.

Holy ****.


It's always awkward when you say "I love you" on the phone to someone who isn't a family member/other person you'd say "I love you" to. Especially because you never realize until you've hung up, and then it's just awkward to call back.

hurr durr, I said that to my science partner and he totally got the wrong message

when you're on the bus/train listening to music through your ear/headphones and someone you may or not know talks to you and you completely don't acknowledge it and try and look in the opposite direction so as not to make eye contact. GO AWAY, I AM LISTENING TO MUSIC AND I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOUR SHIT VOICE.

when someone says something which is just totally wrong and you don't want to correct them in fear of the huge tumbleweed that will inevitably come barging through the room. like the other day this guy i work with saying "i hate queens of the stone age, have just never really liked dave grohl". i was nearly dying in my chair wanting to correct him but people were around and i didn't want to.

when you think out loud and people hear you, or you think of something funny and start laughing when you're on your own. i do this far too often for my own good.

when you're walking along and a bit of the pavement is sticking up out of the ground and you kick it and stumble and people see. i just look to the ground and start laughing or get my phone out and pretend to/actually text someone.

also i can vouch for the peeing in the urinals thing as well. i always go for the cubicles, i can be absolutely busting for a piss but when i get to the urinals it just wont come out AT ALL. when we saw pixies a few months ago i was absolutely dying for a wee, ran to the toilet and it was packed and i was waiting at the cubicle and a guy behind me was like "go on theres a urinal free" and i was a bit drunk and shouted "NO THANKS I'M A NERVOUS PISSER HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" and there was just utter silence. i actually wanted to dive down the toilet and never be seen again.

The third time I have to ask someone to repeat themselves and still do not understand what they said.

I finally resort to smiling and a half laugh until I realize they were asking me a question.

I always correct people, I find their stupidity annoying.
People disliking something out of ignorance like that, I just have to be the smug little know it all and I don't care if it's awkward.
My sister said could of, and I just said "have."
And my mum today, she said they suffered from annorexic
Straight away, "anorexia."
And she was like "yeah, anorexia... anyway...."

I can't help it. You should have started an argument with that utter utter twat.

oh man yeah i hate that. my friend has a really really strong geordie accent and i pretty much just say yes, no and nod my head to everything she says. especially when shes drunk she might as well be speaking a foreign language to me.

i just can't. i dunno why, i think it's because i got my head kicked in when i was in school for pulling someone up on their misspelling of "chicken" haha. so maybe it's put me off correcting people forever.
