H Is For Horrible Task...
Sep. 2nd, 2008 05:47 pmFrom Thelma Viaduct - Comment and I'll give you a letter; then you have to list ten things you LOVE that begin with that letter. Afterward, post this in your journal and give out some letters of your own.
She gave me the letter 'H':
1. Hundred Reasons - A band who really signified breaking off on my own as far as musical tastes are concerned. They're not the heaviest rock band (however they do make a heavy racket!) but they helped me diverge from my pre-Uni friends' sole taste in mostly indie into a wider taste of music towards the punk, metal and rock that I splice with indie, hip hop and dance that I love today.
2. Horror movies - are they us confronting our fear of death, are they a ludicrous look into the occult, bloodthirsty and the terrible or just an excuse for bitter normal people to see often pretty Hollywood folks ripped to bits?! Probably all of the above really!
3. Hounds (impersonation of!) - Pretending to impersonate a dog nipping at Toni's thigh (she is scared of dogs), the pissing about is fun and her ingrained reaction to it is ace!
4. Homoeroticism - Since I'm comfortable with my heterosexuality, why not pretend to be homosexual in photos? It's a giggle for all concerned!
5. Herpes (aka Herbal peas) - In the third year of Uni when we all lived together, Taz started going out with Sonia (Katie's friend.) He pretended it wasn't happening but Katie in a blaze way, found his phone and not only revealed that they were enjoying each other's sexual company but also that he had developed "an itchy sensation,,!"
Given that Taz had bet Katie £1,000 that she DID have an STD over the summer, Katie was joyous at this piece of news and went around telling everyone... Taz heard about this, a cloak of conspiracy fell over the alleged 'STD' and only the involved parties know what the truth is.
To this day, Taz claims he rubbed Dettol on his bollocks as he could go for so long at sex, it caused chafeing!
"Herbal peas" or herpes was used in the game of bollocks style in the following months to wind him up. If you need to know what a game of bollocks is, do ask!
6. Hannah Scorer - The fact she writes the news for parts of Lincolnshire is mildly terrifying when you realise her sense of humour - which is exactly the same as mine, ripping the piss out of everything and everyone. There should be more who think like that! She also got me some Oil of Ulay for my 23rd birthday as "I was getting old and no one would want to shag me otherwise"!
7. Horace - What my Mum called my sister's slightly bizarre 60 oddth birthday present of a toy hedgehog! The fact that my Mum would even consider naming said hedgehog a title as archaic as Horace makes me think back at how long my Mum has been around (since 1943 if you're wondering!) and wonder what the war years were really like.
8. Huddersfield - The birthplace of rugby league in 1895, my life would not be the same without it. My number one sport by a long, long way.
9. Hoodoo - Another fantastic word, something that I can associate back with Swinton and the rugby. Sadly Swinton seem to have a hoodoo of not winning on many grounds (including their own!) at the moment!
10. Hootennanny - Party! A fantastic word and it conjures up the idea of live bands at a party which should happen more often!
Right, the deal is, if you comment, you get the option of me giving you a letter of my choosing and you in turn, make a list of ten things that you love!
