I'm a United Supporter, I just wouldn't say I'm a United Fan at the moment.

I don't like you.

So I recently came to the discovery that I don't like people. Now before I continue writing I just want to say that this isn't in response to any particular event in my life, I've just come to terms with the fact that I don't much like other people. It's a weird thing to admit coming from a DJ I know. Though I really haven't a been a DJ as much as I would have liked recently(aside from the Radio DJ sense), though that's an article for another time. I do like being social and I do like hanging around with people. Don't get me wrong I'm just a normal as you. Most of the time. But an increasing number of times now I find myself wishing that I didn't have to come into contact with people on a regular basis. Now this probably says more about me then it does about the people I meet, but I think I've managed to hit the nail on the head as to why I feel this way and therefore it might be better to say: I like people, I just don't like what they do. That is to say everything that comes with people. I'm not a fan of disappointment and life would have it that people are disappointing. They let you down. Whether it's someone you've just met who you're hoping will be one way and turns out to be another. Or someone you've known for ages who you're hoping won't behave in a certain way. I try to live my life in a certain way, and one of those ways I've been brought up with is to always try your best to see the good in someone; give people the benefit of the doubt. And so I do. But 9 times out of 10 (or so it seems) my original thought is the one that rings true. Leading me feeling disappointed because I made an effort to change a view only to have my hopeful outlook dispelled. Now I won't ever change my approach. There are people out there who deserve the chance to prove themselves. And if you don't leave yourself open to certain things then when they appear you won't be able to see them or appreciate them for what they are. I think I'm somewhere between an introvert and an extrovert. That is to say, I like being around people, but I'm perfectly capable of being on my own.

This was originally designed for World Peace Day. But I kept the name to represent me as I really liked it. A mix of chill trap blending into pure madness it deserves a listen.

Is it personally relevant?

I love gadgets. As far as I'm concerned the more the better. In my ideal situation I can watch TV in my car, listen to the radio on my bike and have my heating controlled by a smart thermostat regardless of where I am. Despite my love of gadgets I don't actually own many cutting edge toys due to the fact that before I make any purchase I ask myself a question. Not 'Do I need it?' although that's always a good place to start, but even simpler 'Is it personally relevant?'. People are always quick to jump to get the latest must have gadget, the queues for the latest iPhone alone prove my point here. If you've got money to burn then by all means buy away, but if you don't have you really sat down and asked yourself if it's personally relevant? And by that I mean relevant to you personally. I'll give you a for instance. I love TV's. Not because I like watching TV but because I just like what they can do, they way they look and how they display content. Now I really want a new TV but despite that I have no TV's in my house. Why you might ask? Because I don't watch TV! I have two monitors which are hooked up to a computer and one to my Xbox360. So whilst I would love to buy a new TV and put it in my house when I tick off the features it could give me there aren't any that, if I'm honest with myself, I really need.

Smart TV - Pretty much all of the apps are available on my Xbox.

3D - Great but I hate 3D and what content do I have to watch?

4K - So much detail! But again no native content.

Full HD - So's the monitor.

4 HDMI ports - I only use one.

The list goes on, and you can pretty much follow that pattern for every gadget that comes out. So you're probably thinking I'm some killjoy right about now but you'd be wrong. There's an upside to no being an early adopter of technology. When all these products first come out they usually cost a massive deal. I mean when 1080p came out you could have bought a car for the same money, the same way with 4K TV's now. The longer you wait, the cheaper and better it gets. A similar specced HDTV to the ones that first came out would cost you around £100. Now I'm not saying you have to wait ten years or so but even now there aren't many TV channels in full HD so unless you watch loads of Blu-rays or play video games a lot (most still aren't in full HD either) then you could still probably do without one. Fact is these company's that sell you the product want you to think it's essential. But chances are it's far from it. Take your time and buy when you're ready and it's relevant to you. After all, it's all well and good buying a phone that you can use as an oyster card. But when you live in Cornwall...

Because I feel like we've gotten to the point where we need signs to inform people otherwise.
