you know what the best way to get over writers block is? write silly stories about the strokes. no, i'm not actually kidding. churn. just write utter crap, just to amuse yourself, it doesn't matter if it's good or not, just write. sometimes writing is like a well that needs to be primed.
and julian's ass is NOT rubbish. his band is rubbish, and he's rubbish, and sex with him is rubbish, but his ass... MAN that is some fine spanish bootie. MMMMMMMMM.
what do you call a pirate's treasure? that would be BOOTIE.

No, I have decided that it is the rest of the worldthat is wrong and ass-challenged, and WE that arenormal. There is nothing wrong with obsessing aboutJulian's butt. I mean, it's a magnificent butt. Faceit.
Obsessing about female celebrity's butts is consideredperfectly normal (Hello J-Lo, Kylie, etc.) so it'ssexist for The Man to put us down for the same thing.
You know what I'd like to see? Celebrity Ass-Match,that's what I'd like to see, yeah.
In the red corner, it's Jennifer "J-Lo" Lopez,weighing in a featherweight 7 Stone.
And in the blue corner, it's Julian "Ju-Lo"Casablancas, weighing in at... sorry, ladies andgentlemen, the judges are having to weigh eachass-check separately.
Ju-Lo comes out wrapped in a silk dressing gown,raising his fists in the air and making the "we'renunber one!" sign as his theme song plays "Don't befooled cause my ass is so wide, I'm still Julie fromthe Upper East Side..."
the front row - comprised of the other Strokes -cheers loudly and whoops. (What the fuck are theirnames? I don't know, aren't they all called Nick orsomething? Nick Farfisa, Nick Moog, Nick Theremin,Nick Hammond Jr and Nick Rhodes, who is not actually aStroke but their stylist and "suit consultant." Yeah,that's it.)
Julian slips the silk robe from his shoulders,revealing the marvel that is his BUTT, strainingagains the shorts that barely contain it. Severalgirls in the audience actually faint from the wonderof it all.
"Prepare to die, Assablancas" screeches J-Lo, andlaunches herself at him.
Julian does not even bat an eyelid, merely turnsaround, and J-Lo slams straight up against the butt,and BOUNCES, flying out of the ring, out of the arena,and lands in the carpark, on her head, which splitsslightly and causes little rhythmic arcs of red topulsate gently in the morning sun.
"I am the ass-champion, I am the ass-champion!" shoutsJulian in triumph, shaking his mighty ass-cheeks.Several more girls faint and have to be carried out."It's my Spanish heritage," he explains to waitingreporters as he is taken away to be crowned.
OK, my fantasies are weird, but they're ALL MINE...

So, it's the day after the bit Celebrity Ass-Match andall of New York is celebrating Jules' vanquishing ofthe evil J-Lo.
To celebrate, Mayor Juliani will be giving Jules theKey To The City.
"Scweet!" exclaims Jules. "The Key To The City? Doesthis mean that I can sneak into all the bagel-shops onSaturday when they're closed and get MORE BAGELS?!?!?Rock AND roll!"
The ceremony is, of course, at Rockefeller Centre,which has been renamed Rock Centre especially for theoccasion. "Yay!" cry Nick Moog, Nick Theremin, NickHammond Jr in unison. "We can go ICE SKATING on therink."
"I don't skate," sniffs Nick Rhodes (not actually aStroke, but their personal stylist and suitconsultant.) "I don't DO ice, unless I'm sitting bythe side of it sipping champagne cocktails."
"What about you, Nick Farfisa?" the others ask.
Nick Farfisa is shivering by the side of the ice rink."I'm too COLD to skate since I shaved my head."
"Oh come on, Farf, you're not still smarting aboutthat Onion article," sighs Nick Hammond Jr.
"Guy from Strokes accused of trying to look like theGuy From The Strokes?" whines Farf.
"But you CUT YOUR HAIR" howls Nick Moog. "But nowPavement will write songs MAKING FUN OF US and thenGuided By Voices won't want to be our videos and giveus cred any more. Getting made fun of by Pavement isWAY WORSE than getting made fun of by The Onion!"
"I'm HUNGRY" complains Julian. "All this skating hascertainly given me an appetite. Dude, let's go get hotdogs."
"There are no hot dog vendors in Rock Centre any moresince Mayor Juliani banned street vendors," Nick Moogsighs.
"DUDE!!!" yells Jules. "That is so wrong. I'mHUNGRY!!! MY ASS NEEDS FOOD!!"
"Oh no..." quake the other Strokes. "We all know whathappens when Jules gets hungry... Come on, Jules,let's go to the Fashion Cafe or something."
"NO! NO NO NO!!!" whimpers Jules. "No models! I'mscared of models."
The other Strokes give Julian strange looks. "Youdon't understand, when I was a kid and I had to go toDads Take Your Kids To Work Day, all the models usedto point and laugh and call me Fatty-Fatty-Fat-Fat. Ifucking HATE models! I'm not going in the FashionCafe. And I'm HUNGRY!!! I want a HOT DOG!!!"
"What's that ghastly rumbling?" wonders Nick Rhodes,looking up from his champagne cocktail. "Is that the Ftrain?"
"No, that's Julian's stomach."
Unfortunately, just at the moment, Mayor Juliani'slimousine pulls up, and the Mayoral Party gets out.Julian rushes at them screaming "You bastard! Youbanned hot dog vendors from Rock Centre and I'MHUNGRY!!! KISS MY SPANISH ASS, MOTHERFUCKER!!!"
There is a brief scuffle during which Jules actuallymanages to EAT Mayor Juliani.
"Dude! I'm the Mayor now!" howls Julian. "Bring thehot dogs back to Rock Centre! Hand out free bagles onthe subway! Change the New York State Song to WhiteLight/White Heat! Redesign the new World Trade Centreso that the Twin Towers are in the shape of MYBUTTCHEEKS!!!"
"Julian! Dude, you killed the Mayor!"
"I'm the Mayor now, and that's Mayor Julian to you! InLord Mayor Julian to you! I'm the King Of New York!Fetch me my guilded carriage! We're gonna do thisproperly like those Limeys do in England!"
Who will stop Lord Mayor Julian before his ego goesout of control? Someone call the Powerpuff Girls...
"Awwww," sighs Lord Mayor Julian. "I heart Bubbles..."
Don't even try to guess what happens next... it's too horrible to contemplate. Stay tuned for the next episode of Jules My Butt Cookie...

ugh, i'm so annoyed about my former fucking landlady. the fucker kept me waiting for TWO HOURS to get my deposit back - she was late getting back, and then insisted on WATCHING FUCKING STAR TREK FIRST. and THEN she fucking nickle and dimed me, charging me rent for today, even though i'm not fucking sleeping there tonight. FUCKING CUNT!!!! argh, i was literally shaking when i came out of there, i was so angry. suzy had to get between us to stop us from coming to blows.
but my housemate has a cunning plan... will wait until implementation until i tell you all what it is... oh, but it's utterly devilish and beautiful.
