    Once upon a time I lived in a share house with a New Order fan.

    Don't you dare pity me.

    Anyway, this muffin collected live tapes of New Order. Every time he got one, he'd play it. Loud.

    Like I said, don't pity me. I can do that for myself.

    Ever notice how our first impressions are the strongest? That whatever we encounter first, stays with us, often for decades, and often despite intellectually knowing that that first impression is in fact wrong?

    Like lasagne sticking to a carpet (don't try this at home) or a losing soul clings to pride, with both pasta sauce and draining soul not having a clue about what they're sticking to, or why, or even that they are sticking to anything.

    Similarly, what we discover when we're young often stays with us no matter how wrong we might be.
