Q: Why are 99% of forums lame? 
A: Because the majority of the users are over-zealous and arrogant pricks, forever obsessed with showing off their 'skillz' in the forum topic at hand.

Saw Get Smart with James, today. It was really good! A lot of funny moments. Most of all.. it's just fun to be going out with someone haha.

Yesterday, while in France, Blizzard announced to the world they'll be making a Diablo 3! I'm so excited, because i've been waiting for something new from Diablo for ages. They're making Starcraft II as well! Why do I love Blizzard so much... haha. I seriously have a few games that I have obsessed over for the whole of my life... That being: Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Diablo, Starcraft, Warcraft and any game that is set in the Forgotten Realms. I'm STILL playing Baldur's Gate II and it was made in 2000. Guess that's because my pc is getting a bit long in the tooth... (circa 2004!) Hey, we all have games that we played years ago and return to. BGII is one of those for me. It is amazingly non-linear, and that is one thing I appreciate in a game. The fact that you're actually given a choice. It's not black and white either.. you sometimes have to choose between the lesser of two evils. I admit, I am also a sucker for the spell effects. I'll never tire of interupting a wizard's spell with multiple magic missles.

Wow -- I've begun buying PC magazines, forgotten realms books and reminiscing over old games...

Didn't get in.

This video would have to be the most strangest thing I've seen in a long time... It includes a humorous dancing chicken for the most part, but then a rabbit in a toy truck and also a duck. And if you hadn't guessed the theme, there's also the satisfying thigh-slapping hillbilly music to remind y'all in the deep south now. Woooooo! aah. woo. woo. aaaah!

Fucking love this ad.

I HAVE A QUESTION !  Can I touch your hair...?

So Dad's away in Darwin and we all usually order out when he's away. Just something we've always done... Anyways, we got Dominos this time and I think the delivery guy was gay. Once upon a time I wouldn't have cared... but you get to a point in your life where you feel like you have to take chances. I wouldn't be looking to hook up with guy anytime... but you never know if he could be a cool or what not. For some reason I'm always optomistic about these things even though reality tends to prove that gay guys are rarely interested in being 'just friends'. Anyways we orderered a three pizza special with chicken wings, coke, chicken wings and an extra Hudsons icecream. As I was going through the hallway I was walking funny because I hurt my leg and everyone (including me was laughing). When I opened the door he looked at me in an amusing way and asked if he had done anything wrong. Which I thought at first, was kind of strange... just because you're laughing doesn't mean you're laughing at him. He just seemed really nervous, but not in a rookie 'I don't know what i'm doing' kind of way. I must admit that I can be naive sometimes and signals go over my head...

On the site, they normally tell you to quote the code and that, so I had printed it all out to give to him but he just laughed and said that none of the people even know half the codes. I forgot how much it was and he was (apparently) having trouble reading the docket so he told me to put the icrecream in the freezer as he figured it out. When he did (before I got back to the door) he called it out exitedly. For some reason I thought this was strange as well... most people wait until you're back at the door to say the price. By this time my gaydar was definitely on red alert...  He didn't appear to look like a freak but he was acting quite strange. I know that just because someone is chatty it doesn't mean they are hitting on you, but this just felt different.  When were getting everything in order he dropped the chicken kickers on the porch and sounded devastated and apologetic. So I thought i'd play along and say "Oh don't worry about it, its only chicken" (I thought that would either be funny or make him feel better) but it seemed to suprise him or almost offend him. So he says "What... don't you like them?" to which I sort of made a quarter shrug before he says cheerfully "Mostly about the pizza". 

By this time... I had given him the money and he gave me everything but he started looking around and found the Peugeot and commented on that and how nice the house was. To which my awesome styles replied "Oh... well it's my parents". Then looked up at the ceiling (which is all bowed in and had cracks in it) "bit of a problem there though". "Yeah... it's pretty a pretty old house". Then he asked me "So... what kind of industry would I have to work in to live around the area?" (something like that anyway) I just thought it was an odd question and just said "Oh... well I don't know. There's a couple of places down from here". (I meant the little units 2 doors down). "What? houses?" "No, I mean town houses" (I was kind of trying to tell him that it doesn't really matter what industry you work in, there's places for everyone). "Oh" he says... as he's still backing off and looking around and made a little nod to once again make a gesture to how nice the place was then we said our goodbyes and he left. He just had the gay thing. He didn't look evil disgusting gay though (which is always a plus).

It was kind of amusing and freaky at the same time. I may never know if this guy was just an oddball or was actually chatting me up. It was exciting though... I haven't felt like anyone (worth it) has been interested in me in a long time and even if this guy isn't my type. I have got to admit that feeling like I had just got chatted up wasn't the worst feeling in the world. Maybe i'll be in a pizza mood next Sunday at 7:00 pm  ;)  Not looking for anything... but it would be interesting to see if fate brought us together again and he was still as antsy as he was tonight. Then I would know for sure it wasn't because he was a new driver and just nervous about getting things wrong.

Current Mood: curious

(1:18... The kid starts getting frustrated and she just wants to fly the kite, but the woman is being a controlling bitch) 

 
  
That guy's head and neck freaks me out... And why is he talking about gang bang's ?

They must think all Western music is like this...

He's probably either paying her out solely because he's making her say "bitch", or also because she has a weird acccent... 

(mamma'abbala)

Current Mood: amused

Wow... If you thought Days of our Lives was bad, you've got to watch this! I'm developing a rather disturbing passion for these hags... but I can't help it. They are so awesome in each of their own ways that it must be shown. This woman is reminiscent of Yoda (or perhaps the gurgly throated creature from The Grudge)? "NO. YEW BITCH!"

...and the grandson? He could be the successor of Michael Jackson. He sounds more like MJ than MJ does now. "Thankyew..."?! *last syllable lazily trailing off* Your voice is so high and girly that I will PERSONALLY fly to your country and force you to sign up to Sony BMG, ok?


(Excuse me while I go climb a tree...)

Current Mood: amused

 Who cares she can be 'naughty' in English. This woman's laugh is infectious!

Current Mood: amused

Yes, it may be set-up but does it really matter? I love how the guy just draw on the walls and no one seems to care. Oh and you can't forget "K-Dawg"... Teaching A-Po some swear words immediately puts you into the realms of NIGGA G.  Speaking of - one rather amusing aspect of Chinese is the word 那个 Nei ge "That  / That one". When said quickly  / lazily it turns into "Ni ge" ;-)

It may usually been seen as juvenile,  but I think if this woman can learn the intricacies of the word 'fuck' in English, she's half way to learning it... I probably don't go a day without using it, and since it is seen and heard so much I really don't think it is that big of a deal. Why do people get so offended?

I don't understand why people have problems teaching slang / swear words in different languages. I think they would be helpful.. yes obviously you've got to learn the basics first, but having the ability to verbally defend yourself compared to not being able to is a big thing in my opinion.
 

Tired of being alone!

I thought I would try to update again… (my last attempt failed!)

So…

The last few days have seen me with a nasty cold, which I am over now. There was one night where I didn’t get one ounce of sleep - period. The weeks have actually been exhausting… I still have not ‘felt’ an full week though, because I was off sick for two days. I feel very confused at the moment. I don’t know what this work experience is going to mean to me... What happens when this finishes? Am I going to be offered a job? Should I take it? Or should I just give my thanks and leave?

There are two people giving me differing opinions on this…

My friend tells me that I am quite capable of a data entry or call centre job, and that I CAN get one – I just have to try harder, but my mother tells me that I should be grateful for this work experience and it would be stupid to let it go to waste. 

In then end - It is I that has to make a decision... and that’s what scares me. I want to make the right decision for my future, because it’s getting further and further down the track now… I will be 21 this year and still without meaningful work. I realise that there is one mistake that I continue to make, and that’s not taking risks…

I know that most people never enjoy their first jobs. So I should probably be grateful for this experience. I am just finding it VERY hard to be grateful, when one of the tasks I have been appointed, is scrubbing the last three years of dirt, grime and dead insects off of all the shelves…

I am putting far too much emphasis on the past... As my friend says: “Sometimes you may not be qualified for a job, but your personality and enthusiasm is what will see you through.”  I am going to have to repeat my friend’s words like a mantra for the next few weeks because I don’t want to side with mum… If I side with her, then I would be accepting that I’m not ‘good enough’ for anything else. What if she’s being overly pessimistic?
