Anyway, during the chat she brought up the fact that a communion was going on across the road, she said "It's crazy these days, I saw a hummer limo pull up!" I interjected with "Yeah I know...I was happy to get 20 pound when I made mine..." or something like that but she wasn't done, when I stopped talking she finished her sentence with "...and a dark family got out of it!"<br /><br />Completely taken aback I just cut the conversation short, took my kitten and left. It was one of those ridiculously in your face racist comments that leave you lost for words. I just wanted a cat...I hope my cat isn't racist.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy8cI-iEY0SJf4Scd86AzBVTRzqUbBuJJd-Iz-jEccmGH87rXg5PUev52QlJ6VCR3iifd6wODt19B7363oS5PVbYwKqNOH996ajOnsyRfNG5DgQedLONuV1e0OQDCfX3j5g2LD0Jc3-7qC/s1600/Kitten.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy8cI-iEY0SJf4Scd86AzBVTRzqUbBuJJd-Iz-jEccmGH87rXg5PUev52QlJ6VCR3iifd6wODt19B7363oS5PVbYwKqNOH996ajOnsyRfNG5DgQedLONuV1e0OQDCfX3j5g2LD0Jc3-7qC/s320/Kitten.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5469416077342081042" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaPbJdQJ4CaNLxfWz0qQdOLdTSt2B_H8vKedJ-mVES9pDY0Mk6-DqztwtuDZ8GAPeZ6NQnqP3FMJE5BECyYm6OtaucVu1zLiYUaeUYAjopUJzKJiNkbllFItAX4f0jwajdSbavpONq2Ngo/s1600/Kitten.jpg"><br /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Naaaaaaaahhhh.Joebreakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037419895616959357noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5867274884126642075.post-59158381830588724832010-04-25T17:52:00.000-07:002010-04-25T18:07:34.515-07:00SummerhillSo the last blog I wrote was about having fun in Shankill and about kids messing and all that. This one will be kind of a comparative to where I'm living now.<br /><br />The City Centre is class to live in because it easy to get places and I can stroll home from most nights out (no more NiteLink trips) but the negatives outweigh the positives, seriously. Take for example the locals, the last blog was about some kid being a bit cheeky in a cool way, the other day I was walking home and there was this chubby kid and his mate running around like mad cunts. When walking by them I heard "HAHA YOU FAT PRICK!!!" I thought nothing of it and that the skinny kid was slagging his fat mate, nope, they were calling me a fat prick haha. What's more is I was wearing my No Turning Back shirt with "Stronger" written on the back, they ran past me and said "STRONGER!? More like WEAKER YOU FAGGOT" Then chanted "skinny jeans, skinny jeans" then ran off. Maybe they were on to something. I guess it's better than getting rocks thrown at you haha.<br /><br />For ages I couldn't even sleep here because of the sounds of ambulances going by, guess it was a poor choice to live 5 minutes from the Mater Hospital...and when I look out the window I see dudes getting sick and kids hassling Chinese dudes, not to mention the creepy cunts that do be hanging outside Harry's. A step down from the hearing the seaside and seeing Killiney Hill out my window and having fresh air but I think it would take me time to adapt to life without the din of sirens and fireworks.<br /><br />Still though, I'll be fucked if I'm making a 2 hour journey up and back to college, but at least when I had to do that I went in more.Joebreakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037419895616959357noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5867274884126642075.post-73296492891604909492010-04-14T17:26:00.000-07:002010-04-14T17:47:03.435-07:00Shanganagh CliffsToday was me and Sarah's fake 1 year anniversary because Sarah is a creep who remembers the moment we first locked eyes, so like most days we just hung out haha. We went to visit my mam in The Heartland followed by a trip to the cliffs/beach. After living in shite town for 6 months you appreciate how class it is/was living in the suburbs by the sea.<br /><br />I spent most of the time in Shankill on running around like a mad cunt and climbing on the castle walls up in Shanganagh Spliffs ran into a cheeky young lad (not a little dickhead from my road anyway) who told me to watch out for the cliff because it was mad dangerous, I told him I knew all about it! That I used to play up here! He looked at me as if I was 40 haha. When I was walking away he shouted "Is she your girlfriend?" I shouted back "NO!!" then him and his mate shouted "SHE IS!!!!", "NOOOO!!!" "SHE ISS!!!" "Alright you got me lads."<br /><br />When I was walking away he hopped up on the castle walls and waved goodbye, it was weird.<br /><br />When we got to the beach I jumped over the river, climbed under a bridge, threw shite at Sarah, saw a dog with a full doughnut in it's mouth legging it off and I didn't even have to use my AK, today was a good day.Joebreakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037419895616959357noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5867274884126642075.post-43845789890543460322009-03-31T07:15:00.000-07:002009-03-31T07:24:01.257-07:00The General ElectionsDudes are campaigning around my estate.<br />One old lad from Fine Gael, most definitely Christian knocked on my door a few minutes ago, hands me a flyer and starts staring me up and down.<br />Why?<br />Probably because I was wearing my Jerry Falwell Ceremony shirt and the dude who was campaigning looked exactly like him haha.

Really. The people who I've spoken to about it know what's up anyway, so there is no point in writing about it here.<br />All I will say is that for the most part I tried my best the last year and put on some great shows and I'll continue to try and do so, although it will be a lot tougher now to get the bands I want.<br /><br />I've been unwell for a good bit, feeling better then relapsing, today was one of those days.<br />Probably from all the laughs I do be having before I'm fully better.<br /><br />Yeah I've nothing else.<br />Come hang with me tomorrow.Joebreakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037419895616959357noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5867274884126642075.post-88357055471410085002009-02-04T19:39:00.000-08:002009-02-04T19:46:44.134-08:00Get down with the sicknessFuck that.<br />I slept until like 9pm today only waking up to watch the Merseyside Derby.<br />I've got lots of muscle pain, headaches and a cough to boot.<br />It's been a long time since I was sick so I was kinda askin' for it.<br /><br />That's what I get for sitting at the door in the Boom Boom Room wearing wet clothes.<br />brr.<br /><br />So the last few days were pretty good all things aside, got to hang with Jeff from Bomb the Music Industry and he was pretty much the nicest, most enthusiastic guy in the world.<br />Sos really helped out loads as well as the other Chewy fellahs which was real nice of 'em.<br />It's nice to have a break til the end of this month from running shows, no better time to be sick I suppose.<br />:)<br />Some bad shit though, WOUNDS showing exactly what kind of band they are by pulling out of a show we're putting on.

The fact that I'm having difficulty breathing for the last coupe of days is kinda worrying.<br />My health is slowly deteriorating. :(<br />But I got a big slab o' cake off the birthday girl because she's off to work at Vogue!<br />Win/Win aside from not being able to see Becca til February...<br /><br />Anyway reflection time.<br /><br />This year was definitely one of the best ever.<br />There weren't any particular low points at all, aside from certain falling outs...<br />Making loads of new friends.<br />I'd name them all but then I'd be a cool dude, you know who ya're.<br /><br /><br />This year was also the year I started putting on shows with Demented well the year started out with Joebreaker promotions haha.<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"> </span></span></span><br />Needless to say I was still fresh as fuck, still am haha.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b289/Sardonikkus/SYB.jpg?t=1230823573"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 226px; height: 320px;" src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b289/Sardonikkus/SYB.jpg?t=1230823573" alt="" border="0" /></a>This show was incredible but it wasn't without it's hitches.<br />We lost a lot of money because of a fairly ridiculous guarantee and HUGE van and I didn't get my money back til about 5 months after! Still was the best way to start out as it really made up for the losses at other shows attendance was pretty mass at this show.<br />We lost the venue later in the year because of drunken slut kids.<br />After the show Mac asked me to join Demented with him and Sean and sure here I am, originally Mac asked me to join because of my Greystones hook up, so much for that haha.<br />I was involved in putting on shows I never ever thought I'd put on some of which had us shitting ourselves over money and some which we thought were gravy trains but fell on their arses.<br />E.G. Ceremony (Still Awesome)<br />But I think the fact that we finished in positive figures this year shows a lot for all the work we put in, I mean a lot of people don't acknowledge that I'm even in Demented especially touring bands but it's all good because I get the knowing that I put on rad shows that gets all my friends togetha for a gooood time.<br />Have Heart was the best anything ever.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/8/l_5ac323e1d1494b8288d3dae4e8cb47aa.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 426px; height: 266px;" src="http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/8/l_5ac323e1d1494b8288d3dae4e8cb47aa.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Joining Real Talk! happened a bit by mistake as well, Mac posted asking looking for people to join his band I said messing that I HAD a bass and later proved that I couldn't play it haha.<br />And sure I got to play with a group of sound lads, go on a little mini tour of Ireland with No Turning Back and play with some of my favourite bands.

So she's sitting there talking to the big man crying her heart out about her accent displacement syndrome when the 15 year old girl with one arm that got bitten off was all smiles haha.<br /><br />Not that Kate wasn't all smiles :)...until...haha.<br /><br />Stayed in Ciara's with Duncan apparently I kept trying to starfish in my sleep but I don't think so, I have a single bed it wouldn't be one of my habits!<br />Ah well sher.<br />I stayed in all day today, watched football and made a d-lish pasta bake.<br /><br />Can't wait to write a 2008 blog.<br />Prepare for a novel.<br />Sorry this wasn't mega depressing everyoneJoebreakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02037419895616959357noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5867274884126642075.post-68214033687657791702008-12-12T18:40:00.000-08:002008-12-12T19:09:09.205-08:00Scratch...Most people know by now that I'm fucking plagued with hives because my mam changed the detergent we use to wash clothes and shit so my nights are filled with restless scratching.<br />I thought once she changed back everything would be A-Ok.<br />But they're progressively getting worse, as well as being absolutely awful to look at they're soooo itchy. My hips appear to be the worse, although when I scratch my belly it leaves BIG red marks.<br />I guess this is like late chicken pox or some shit for me.<br />Somebody cast Esuna on me, thx.<br /><br />I'm glad we broke even on Verse, it means the tour was a success and it was a fun 3 days.<br />Robb's car was kinda chilly for a bit but he turned the heat on, the man doesn't feel the cold.<br />On the way back from Galway we got pulled over and a cop laughed at me for being unemployed a situation which I hope is remedied on Tuesday...Activision lads.<br />The German dude who was with Verse was a lovely fellah.<br />Verse are great live and FF's new songs are fantastic.<br /><br />German Fellah: "Hey Duncan, why are you over here in Ireland, suckin' some dick?"<br />Best quote.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://a560.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/15/l_8e7a872bbe64717fe74babd965f8b5d7.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 225px; height: 319px;" src="http://a560.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/15/l_8e7a872bbe64717fe74babd965f8b5d7.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>Myself and Mac did a lot of postering for Have Heart yesterday, well two days ago at this stage.<br />While we were sticking a few up in Ruallie Buaille a lad came up to us and asked what kind of music Have Heart was, generally you're reluctant to say Hardcore to people who don't really know what it is but we said Hardcore anyway.<br />Your man replies with...<br />"Hardcore, like trance mixed with bollocks?"<br />Hahaha that was too good.<br /><br />Tonight was The Hive Benifit (how apt), it was also my first time seeing Ellie and Louise in a loooong time.<br />It was nice to chat to them again, they played really well too, I was too busy thinking about a goon in the crowd to enjoy it too much though haha.<br />Hopefully we'll be able to hang out like I said during the week.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://c4.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/14/l_5042afa4256642b393b66fee9d8a51e7.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 143px; height: 221px;" src="http://c4.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/14/l_5042afa4256642b393b66fee9d8a51e7.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>Becca is the business, listens to me moan all the time and puts up with me.<br />Her and Jonathon always let me stay in their house too, it's my home away from home only this one I don't have to pay rent at...maybe I've spoken too soon...<br />I just wish she wouldn't go away so much!

He's some fellah.<br />I'm pretty sure I've never put on a gig with Mac Kell where he hasn't been a fucking moan for the whole thing haha, I guess it's tradition at this stage.<br />I'm surprised we broke even and hey some people even bought Real Talk! stuff...<br /><br />Anyway I was pretty nervous/excited about playing because we hadn't practised much at all...<br />But it was fantastic, I had a great time playing seriously, bummed about going on a break but if it means we can start the band back up in summer time I'm game.<br />I'll just be less busy at Demented shows this way I suppose.<br />RAN are class and Mark is Yum. ;)<br /><br />As everyone knows I was in London over the weekend, it was class. I had a really awesome time.<br />Missing the Anniversary show was shite but still amazing weekend.<br />Camden has the best Thai place, THREE POUND FOR ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFET YES FUCKING PLEASE.<br />Myself and Kate got on great but that's good and bad I suppose...<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://xbox360media.ign.com/xbox360/image/article/808/808448/gears-of-war-20070726041344045.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 258px; height: 161px;" src="http://xbox360media.ign.com/xbox360/image/article/808/808448/gears-of-war-20070726041344045.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>I finished Gears of War 2 there last night I was up pretty late doing it, every second of that game rules. It's so fucking good.<br />It was well worth throwing a tantrum for, anyone who paid for their copy can suck it.<br />It's all about regression baby.<br /><br />I think me and Macker are going to do it on Insane, he should really get someone that's better than Joebreaker though...<br />I still have yet to complete Horde mode but I don't want to do it on pussy Casual or anything like that, someone do it with me on Insane haha.<br />Brumaks fucking rule. Corpsers do not rule. Anyone who hasn't got this game, get it don't be a fucking dope.<br />On another side note, I got the new Xbox Dashboard the other day, it's class. Way better than the old one.

I am TOO good at talking to interviewers.<br />Started at 1pm and finished at 11pm, that's an extra 1.<br />Basically we went on a Sales Run our to Ballycomelately or somewhere, selling Eircom Phonewatch to people.<br />Which is pretty class because I just so happen to HAVE one of those things so I know how it works and how to talk about it.<br />Some of the tactics are pretty underhanded but not necessarily lies, and you really have to be good with conversation so I hope it's something I can work on, it'll be good for my confidence.<br />And with amazing commission at 150 euro a sale.<br />That's a fuckin incentive and a half. So at 2 sales a day + standard pay we're looking at over a grand a week.<br />Thanks very much. See you in casa del JB.<br /><br />Anyway I went to the Toga party after and had a shite or two.<br />Sang songs with the lads, love singing songs.<br />AND THROUGH IT ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL...<br /><a style="left: 0px ! important; top: 15px ! important;" title="Block this object with Adblock Plus" class="abp-objtab-08761915229545045 visible ontop" href="http://www.youtube.com/v/LF8unwxhNho&hl=en&fs=1"></a><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/LF8unwxhNho&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/LF8unwxhNho&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Robbedge was good enough to always have my back and give me a lift to the place.<br />Never got to drink me cans though, thanks Olivia for getting them though :D, the match tomorrow will be tasty.

It was rad.<br /><br />Interviews are a load of fun you just get to talk about how awesome you are for 20 minutes to a complete stranger.<br />I pretty much talked about Demented for the whole thing and both interviewers were completely fascinated, the first guy was all about the money the girl who interviewed me asked loads of questions though.
