I missed my train this morning because of Q magazine. I'm placid, peaceful and docile for the most part, but when some person, event or situation twists my ire knob I take severe umbrage with said person, event or situation.
Locus - WH Smith, Central Station, Glasgow, Scotland Situation - Casually flicking through magazines while waiting on train to Kilmarnock Sheriff Court where I am reporting on a case for a Scottish newspaper. Umbrage - Q's 1000 Best Songs Ever special edition magazine. Okay people, strap yourselves in and drop a few Valium. Not only is Prince not in the top 100, but D'Angelo gets in before him with Brown Sugar at 110 or roundabouts. I stood stock-still, my body trembled as my fists clenched ever-tighter on the magazine, draining themselves of blood. I was fit to 'cause a scene' as they say. Fellow commuters were staring at me - they knew I had issues with said magazine. Too hot. Sweaty sticky. Butterflies. Dizzy...then everything went black. The police still won't tell me what happened after that but I managed to sneak onto their computer to post this thread. Gotta go now. I can hear them coming to take me back to my cell.

I missed my train once because of Q magazine too - in Oxford station. Back in 1998 or so, I was reading that The Prodigy were planning on releasing a series of EPs instead of a new album, and said 12 tracks or so were ready - when I looked up and noticed I was late, and the train had left 10 minutes ago.
Never heard anything more about those EPs either. | |
