top 5 desert island, people i'd wouldnt mind being stuck with

top 5 desert island, people i'd wouldnt mind being stuck with
Number 5

Nick Hornby

despite the obvious character flaws (he's an arsenal fan) this guy is the literary equivalent of richard linklater and ben stiller combined. if he insists on supporting the scum of the earth then he can juz shut up and carve his stories on stones around the island or something but i'll still have him there. i've never enjoyed reading a book as much as i've read high fidelity (12 times and counting) and i've read and think his other books are cool too except for Fever Pitch which i refuse to read due to my principles (it's about Arsenal) although the ending is cool (Arsenal lose the championship with the last kick of the game...its sweeter as a former player scored the goal and IT'S TRUE ahhahaha)

actually the making of this list is homage to the book that keeps me company throughout boring bus rides and waiting for people to finish work before hanging out and when i'm fucking bored and start getting depressed about my lack of a life. rob fleming is the anti-hero you will relate to and learn to love...plus he's got great taste in music. like him i've come to accept that life will be shit but at least shit stinks....and if u think there's a comparison that explains my last statement you're wrong! cos its 233 am and i'm fucking high. on life that is...hahahahaha. so there. if you havent read the book then you're just stupid or you're like jermaine pennant (arsenal player...he's illiterate). now you know why i wouldnt mind being on a desert island with mr. hornby. but he's only number 5. can't decide who else so i will stop here...for now.
