ADAM AND JOE’S LIST OF VERY BAD THINGS
1. The little bits of white shit that sink to the bottom of the glass when home-made ice cubes melt.
2. The moment when a label you are cleanly peeling begins to tear. This often happens with record covers which is bad, and not so much on CD’s which is good.
3. Making toast or tea in the ad break only to find, as the show starts again, you hadn’t plugged in the toaster/kettle.
4. Fiddling with a stapler while talking on the phone and accidentally stapling your thumb.
5. Getting things repaired
6. Ordering a mini cab at a party.
7. Finding out you set your video wrong and it taped the other channel which was showing Gardener’s World.
8. Cheap drawing pins that, if pressed sufficiently hard (which, lets face it, is likely to happen with drawing pins) allow the pin to come through the metal disc and embed itself in your thumb.
9. Taking ages to peel an orange only for it to turn out to be revolting.
10. Buying a really obscure record and finding out it’s just been chosen for some miserable new culty ad campaign.

"The answer to how to live is to stop thinking about it. And just to live. But you're doing that anyway. However you intellectualise it, you still just live."
