THE REBEL

Tattoos. Piercings. Dressed in black. Playing Xbox. The counter-cultural rebel. Hates 'skangers'. Collects Marvel comics. Almost voted once but didn't bother. 

Not out of principle, it was just raining. 

Has a thing for things with skulls on them. Smokes from this fucking huge bong. 

Calls people 'douches' but mainly online. The movie Fight Club changed his life. 

Read most of The God Delusion, well some of most of it. Has the gist of it. 

Mentions it on the LiveLeak comments where he has a Family Guy avatar and likes to wage the occasional flame war. 

Used to play bass in a band called Sinister Decay. Never heard of Jean-Claude Trichet. 

Does IT for the IDA. Can name every hold in MMA. Hasn't been tested but reckons his IQ must be high. Has a Guy Fawkes mask but doesn't know why.

SUNDAY ADVENTURE

I'll never forget our Sunday adventure. Gazing at each another over macchiatos. Froth on your nose. 'Hey, let's do something.' Gliding through a lens flared afternoon on our fixies. Bon Iver on the soundtrack. 'Yeah, I feel that exact same way too.' The incline of your flannel hat. #CuteOverbite. Meeting Gustav and Francesca at the organic food market. He's getting back into puppeteering and she found this awesome Il Duce tee. We compare apps. We get toffee apples. You tell me about when you lived in Budapest and I tell you about my year in Brooklyn. 'I've been thinking about reading about physics.' We grab a taco and go see the new Spike Jonze. An Instagram sunset. A bench on the bank of the canal.

'I'm not sure I'm looking for something serious right now.'

'Me too, I'm like kind of like really busy and stuff.'

So it's an unremarkable goodbye that I'll write a remarkable song about and I'll perform it at Kabbáge and you say that you'll be there but I know that you won't and neither will I but I'll think about today all day tomorrow while I'm processing gypsies at the death camp.
