Did Anyone See Kanye West On South Park?

When Kanye West first came out I was biiig fan. His stuff was amazing, he was a wee bit boastful but that’s rap! Before the release of Kanyes second (actual) album I thought he was a complete twat. I couldn’t identify with him at all his boastful BS had leaked out into his daily behaviour!

In saying that I might have change my opinon on Mr West. The episode of South Park that he was featured in painted him as the twat that he was, pretty acurrate I thought! But after the episode this blog posted appeared on his blog:

“SOUTH PARK MURDERED ME LAST NIGHT AND IT’S PRETTY FUNNY. IT HURTS MY FEELINGS BUT WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM SOUTH PARK! I ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON MY EGO THOUGH. HAVING THE CRAZY EGO IS PLAYED OUT AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE AND CAREER. I USE TO USE IT TO BUILD UP MY ESTEEM WHEN NOBODY BELIEVED IN ME. NOW THAT PEOPLE DO BELIEVE AND SUPPORT MY MUSIC AND PRODUCTS THE BEST RESPONSE IS THANK YOU INSTEAD OF “I TOLD YOU SO!!!” IT’S COOL TO TALK SHIT WHEN YOU’RE RAPPING BUT NOT IN REAL LIFE. WHEN YOU MEET LITTLE WAYNE IN PERSON HE’S THE NICEST GUY FOR EXAMPLE. I JUST WANNA BE A DOPER PERSON WHICH STARTS WITH ME NOT ALWAYS TELLING PEOPLE HOW DOPE I THINK I AM. I NEED TO JUST GET PAST MYSELF. DROP THE BRAVADO AND JUST MAKE DOPE PRODUCT. EVERYTHING IS NOT THAT SERIOUS. AS LONG AS PEOPLE THINK I ACT LIKE A BITCH THIS TYPE OF SHIT WILL HAPPEN TO ME. I GOT A LONG ROAD AHEAD OF ME TO MAKE PEOPLE BELIEVE I’M NOT ACTUALLY A HUGE DOUCHE BUT I’M UP FOR THE CHALLENGE. I’M SURE THE WRITERS AT SOUTH PARK ARE REALLY NICE PEOPLE IN REAL LIFE. THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO DRAW MY CREW. THAT WAS PRETTY FUNNY ALSO!! I’M SURE THERE’S GRAMMATICAL ERRORS IN THIS… THAT’S HOW YOU KNOW IT’S ME!”

I believe that it was him that wrote this and that be is actually wanting to change. So I’ve decided to give him another chance, start buying his music and even listen to college drop out again! AMAZING ALBUM!

You should actually check out his blog, it’s got some pretty cool stuff on it.

Nick Joins Greens Gym In Glasgow

Well being the fitness freak that I am I joined a new health club in Glasgow. Specifically Greens In Glasgow, the Finneston one.

The company that ran my old gym in City Park decided to do a runner and not tell anyone, leaving me holding my D&%^ wondering what one of the many gyms in Glasgow will I join. Most of the health clubs in Glasgow are a bit ‘I’m a super clean fitness freak’ my old gym wasn’t like that, possibly because it had no members hence it’s demise.

Anyway when I was researching gyms in glasgow I came across LA Fitness, Venice, Virgin Active and Greens. Virgin Active was waaaay to expensive, LA Fitness wasn’t in the right location, Venice a little bit hardcore for Nicks skinny ass and finally Greens. I chose Greens because the staff seemed pretty nice and the equipment was what I was looking for.

Another interesting point when I was searching for Greens gym I came across these:

Guy looking for Gay friendly gym buddie

Girl looking for gym buddie

I had no idea people posted these sorts of ads.

It was Hue and Cry

I noticed that someone came to my site with this search query “al green”"glasgow”"october”"support”. Clearly looking for the Al Green support band so this is for you or anyone else that ends up on my site looking for it.

It’s was the hugely bad Hue & Cry, don’t care to know much about them but I think they were famous once and are from Glasgow.

Hope I helped!

How Computer Game Skill Help In the Real World

Yesterday while driving to work I suddenly realised how the skills I learned while playing Mario Kart on the N64 as a young boy helps me survive the daily commute.

The skills of dodging and banana or a green shell have kept me safe when being almost plowed into some dumb ass that doesn’t check their blind spot or does look at all on the Kingston Bridge…it makes me wish I had some red shells (code for gun).

I’ve decided to go back into training now that I have purchased my big ass TV and have reclaimed the Wii from my brother.

MARIO KART WE SALUTE YOU!

The AA have really nice people

So, I got a new job! Whoohoo! It’s miles away though oot in the countryside! So I need to drive 45minutes to get there.
I finished work today and went to get into my car, looking forward to the sunny drive home and Nick (at times known as the dick, just for this reason…and others) left his lights on all day which meant the battery was flat.

So after a few push the car and try get it to start efforts, which was actually quite funny and a good wee team building exercise, I had to call The AA.

I waited an hour for this guy to get to me, luckily I was studying documents on the maths behind Google PageRank so it went quickly. The guy go there jumped my car in 5 minutes and it was all good. The guy was really friendly and helpful, he even tried to fix a part of my engine that was making a nose.

So I conclude with. The AA emergency dudes are really nice people that make having a problem with your car not so bad!
