There’s a meme going around. People ask you to comment and they promise to say something about you. I can’t see the point of fishing for compliments, nor does gratuitous niceness appeal. I was thinking of doing a gratuitous insult post, or a random promise for off topic comments, but, well, I can’t be arsed. So you’ll have to make do with a “Mat says disdainful things about the most recent meme” post instead. Feel free to comment and tell me I’m wrong though, I even have an icon for the very purpose.
Meh. V for Vendetta is a cool movie. At some point, I really ought to get around to reading the damn comic (it’s not a graphic novel FFS, it’s a trade paperback collection of a previously published comic series, gah!), especially given that I like the writers other stuff, but, well, meh. I suspect the movie is nothing like the comic, but then, if it was written as an allegory for Thatcher’s Britain, you’d have to change it. And a blatent satire on Blair’s britain is much more relevent. I’m trying to make an icon using the V. Have I mentioned I suck at design stuff? I think I have.
Meh, I’m off to bed. What, me going to bed at midnight not 2am? Yup. I’ve got ’s first novel open on the bed, it’s quite good so far, I’m on page 4. But before I log off, I just heard on the radio. Not only is he a hypocritical git who’s broken the recycling laws he’s responsible for enforcing, he’s also minister for chewing gum. And to think I once voted for the smug git…

First, via , Viking Kittens!. It involved Led Zepp as well, which makes it double plus good, right?
Second, I am at my computer despite the fact that I have a new DVD delivered from play.com’s sale to watch. It’s V for Vendetta. If I could get my PC to play DVDs in the DVD rom I’d be happy, but, well, screencaps can wait.
Third, for , Deepest Sender does give a tag list it seems, this is the first time I’ve actually tried to post with it, and it does seem pretty good. Can’t get it to log into wordpress, but I’ll assume that’s my fault and I’m doing something wrong.
Fourth, MS auto update didn’t actually manage to DL IE7 overnight, despite it trying to, so I give up. I’m stuck with Firefox. Right…
OK, DVD to go watch, anyone want a review later? No, thought not, everyone’s seen it already, right?
