LOADED April 2004

Home decoration is, truth be told, a steaming pile of sickly shit. People decorate because they are weak fools: they know kow-tow to pressure. They keep up with the idiot Joneses. They fall for the filthy disease that is ‘home interior’ magazines and DIY telly programmes. In short, they decorate their homes because deep down inside they think someone will think less of them if they don’t. Fuck that shit. Kick back. Leave the walls and woodwork alone. Home decoration should be simple: cover old stuff up with new stuff which requires no effort but satisfies you ever-changing visual cravings. Use books. Use paintings. Above all, use posters. They are cheap to buy, you can hang them in seconds, and you can change them willy nilly with neither a hither or thither. If you are scared of being called a student tosser stick the fucking things in frames. You can keep the frames when you change the posters. Just get on it and stop being a yee. Do the dog, not the donkey. This minute, if you want to be on the ball, use sex posters from the ages. They look smart without trying. And they shit on any paint job or new curtain arrangement.
