ex hibitionist Flag Hastings 28 Jun 24 3.53pm Send a Private Message to ex hibitionist Add ex hibitionist as a friend

the great pp arnold, 78 years young is playing in my local 2nite. paid the £33 for the ticket, had to print the confirmation off but I'vee got an email saying I have to scan the bar code to get to the app cos the ticket only works in the app. WTF! Is a paper receipt not enough or does some intervening IT scheister have to take his cut? You waana buy a pint on hastings pier - you need an app! I ask you, what utter b0ll0x. I refuse to have a smart phone - idiots scrolling while walking into you, kids in a virtual nightmare - all social control. I zombie couch potato on my lap top at home but don't need to do it 24/7. I'm a digital dinosaur and proud - I refuse to become a teletubby shouting again, again as I scroll towards ADHD. If my local does not let me in 2nite with a paper receipt and insists on me producing a non existent smart phone with a needless app, then you will see me on the news tomorrow morning - my dark side will surface. In the meantime here is a link to the incomparable pp arnold so you may appreciate the glory I must surely witness this evening. she may be 78 but I'm sure she's still got the gift.

Are you with me or am I being unreasonable?

It would be quite hypocritical of me to agree. Would it also be ironic? - Avril Lavigne does not help in these instances.

Alanis Morisette is not fit to wipe the ar*e of PP Arnold - a divine force, 78 and belting it out like Noddy Holder. I bought her biography, she signed it, and because I don't have a smart phone I did not insist on a poxy picture and infilcted some some tedious schpiel but merely said 'that was wonderful, thank you so much' and she clasped her hands together and bowed sweetly with the grace of an authentic star. I'm pi**ed and going to bed. Avril Lavigne gets let off due to her rendition of all the small things.

Just like attempts at cashless , our society wishes to humiliate & marginalise those who like doing things the old fashioned way.

It's like a horror story out of the book of Revelations.

Elderlies being rendered almost disabled. Groups of teenagers sitting around a table in a coffee shop....all silently interacting with each other on apps.


Well. I say no. You will never catch me blogging on a bulletin board.

I agree with Ex hib .
The last time this happened to was when I got tickets to see Dead South at the round house .
I phoned up the box office and they told me to get there early and they would print me off a ticket . Which they did .
Great show .
