Anyone from the UK?

I think it’s fair that to be a snob on anything probably isn’t the most graceful look.

However, if I may, I think we all agree on one thing.

Croques with socks. No. Croques period - also no.

I am definitely a shoe snob. By that I mean boots. Leather, decent heel, zips to the sides.

Do you mean crocs? Hehe

i did wear flip flops when walking down a street once... admittedly, i was in Brasil at the time and we were near a beach.

I prefer walking boots. stompy ones that i will, invariably, wreck in a year or so.

never sandals. ever.

I've got a pair of Caterpillar boots that must be 25 years old now

 

[Wand3rlust]

Oh I used to live in caterpillar boots. And timberlands.

Always buy Animal Fader flip flops myself

Just had a quick scroll through the last couple of pages

Music - if you say you like something just to try and make somebody else like you, then this is the song for you

Books - I like Martina Cole, Jessie Keane and Kimberley Chambers because they call a cunt a cunt.

Somebody bought me the second Richard Osman book for Christmas so I bought the first one as I thought I should read them in order. I haven’t started it yet because I am not sure they are what I will like.

 

[joclfc]

My wife likes Martina Cole and the Richard Osman books,

Maybe I will give it a start this weekend and see how I go

[Polranny]

Just caught up. I was missing in action yesterday. I know sweet fa about music beyond 1980

 

[Polranny]

When i feel low I listen to 'ALICE'S RESTAURANT' ( Arlo Guthrie)

 

[Yesok1]

Do you mean crocs? Hehe

No I'm sure he's a croque monsieur, just cheesier

Good morning. At least its Friday.

A day closer to the end of this mortal roller coaster, we call life.

I saw an article where a scientist claims that we are living in a strategy game. Well if that's true, could the teenager turn it off and go to bed please?

My strategy is open eyes, check pulse and take it from there. Morning all

I love music. I hate music snobs. Those who are in the corner at parties obsessing over who has the obscurest limited edition of a band noone has heard of and for some reason thinks that makes them 'better' than others. Why does it have to be artists noone else has a clue about? Surely a bond can still be forged?

I like what I like and I respect what other people like. No need to make the 'other' reference.

I made a really good friend due to a bananarama gig. I'm so glad neither of us were pretentious enough to diss someone else's loves.

It's like here. Don't yuck my yum. Just cos it's not for you doesn't make it less or more valid.

Love what you love and celebrate it. Bad Manners are only acceptable playing Lip up Fatty.

My reference was more about the sheer joy of finding people who are into the same stuff, it's not really about elitism or exclusion or hipster collector snobbery, although I can see how it may look like that.

FWIW I absolutely love Cruel Summer, and Rasputin, and TiK ToK and Last Friday Night, so I do have some pure pop bones in my body

I have the same split personality with books. While I think Blood Meridian and Gravity's Rainbow are two of the greatest (and most wilfully difficult) books ever written, I'm just as happy knocking off an Andy McNab in an afternoon.

My guilty confession is that I started Ulysses but couldn't be arsed to finish it. Dubliners and Portrait Of The Artist are to my mind Joyce's best and most profound works.

I could never get on with Ulysees or Dubliners.

Cruel Summer - Bananarama
Rasputin - Boney M
TiK ToK - Ke$ha
Last Friday Night - Katy Perry

God I love Dubliners. It's surprisingly readable for Joyce, if a bit bleak.
