Why? What does Matthew Arnold write about?
BBB
oooh, margo lanagan is a whole lotta intense. hoo boy.
the shorts are ... very you.
where'd you get the dog??
matthew arnold is, um, well, really boring. but important. he was a victorian theorist who writes about how we should all get back to the good old days. he instituted the canon, which obviously is a bit ol' deal. it's arnold's fault i have to take the GRE. yah!
he was into sweetness and light, and anti-anarchy.
that was possibly the worst explaination of arnold you can imagine, and i know there is a least one proper victorianist in the audience. . . oh the shame.
tine,
you love the shorts, admit it!
not my dog. my housemate's. or ex-housemate's, cos he's moving off our living room floor today and into his own place (down the road).
i do want a dog.
