Biffy Clyro — The Captain (via biffyclyro)

The opening track from one of my favourite albums of the year.

I spent quite a bit of today driving on relatively quiet roads and listened to this album as loud as I could while I was doing it. It was brilliant.

I can still remember how emotional I felt when I saw them play at a festival 18 months ago.

I love Biffy Clyro.

How come vehicles in movies can always go a little bit faster?

Well alright then.

Technology has its benefits.

Heard during the voiceover of the sports roundup on BBC News.

No shit.

The small amount of booze I can see at the bottom of the bottle does not correspond with the amount I can see going into the glass.

“Twenty-Ten” or “Two Thousand (and) Ten”?

I’m really going to have to commit to one soon. I kind of freeze and think about it every time I have to say it.

I’m hedging towards “Twenty-Ten”.

What else should I be?

Hi

If you got a dodgy-looking email about an online electronics store from me earlier today, it was spam.

No idea how or why it happened, but it was dodgy.

I’ve changed my password, so it shouldn’t happen again.

On the bright side, if you did get it, at least you know you’re in my contacts list. If you didn’t get it, at least you know your spam-filter is working.

Sorry

Mark

Hack The Planet!

Re: to tell you
Happy holidays! if you need any electronic products, where Rightwholesele.com.
Their price is cheap, delivery is also very fast, I have
worked with them, it is really good, go and let’s see it.
Greetings

That’s the text from an email that was sent from my Gmail account to my entire Contacts list at 4.50 p.m. today. I also received it at my work email, while I was sitting at my desk, which kind of freaked me out for a second.

Anyway, my password has been changed, and an apology email sent, just to clog up people’s inboxes even more. But at least the last one was sent on purpose.
