WHERE ARE THESE STRANGE VOICES COMING FROM? January 24, 2010

This time it’s not just me.

This time I’m SURE it’s not just me.

Good people, I turn to you trying to prove my sanity. It may be an almost impossible task, (believe me, I’ve tried many a time. I eventually gave up. My argument was ruined when I claimed they were in league with the Raccoons.) I need you good people to confirm something for me.

Is it just me, or when you open many tabs at once, there are voices, OR MUSIC, that you have to search through the many tabs to find. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME FAR TOO MANY  TIMES! The worst thing is when you search through all the tabs, and there is no mini window or ad that you can close, and no player that you can pause. Basically, the voice/noise, has now become a ninja. Undetectable. This is the worst when the room is deadly quiet. This just happened to me, in a completely SILENT room. After frantically searching for the source of the noise, but not finding it, I began to get more and more frantic. So I started closing tabs. Now, this is risky for several reasons; you might close a highly important tab, or one you can’t remember how you got to, and so you desperately start yelling at the screen, something along the lines of; “GIVE ME BACK MY TAB YOU STUPID INTERWEB CREATURE! AND WHERE THE HELL IS THAT STUPID NOISE COMING FROM?” Then you eventually turn into a sobbing mess pleading with your computer to stop being so mean. Or, the worst thing is when you are left with just the noisy tab, and in panic close the window, unable just open a new tab and see all the tabs you closed, thanks to Windows 7.

All in all, not a fun experience for anyone.

I’m tired after all that ranting.

New years resolution… or lack there of. December 30, 2009

Hey,

Every year, this special time comes around where the last of the Christmas spirit is dying, and the pressure of the new year begins. It occurs on the eve of new years eve (the 30th of December) and this special day is called ‘panic day.’

This day, like many ‘eves’ is a time for panicking and doing last minute things to ready ourselves for the much partying that is more than likely to spontaneously burst out. Yet at the same time, everybody is in a stressed mood as they get rid of the Christmas tree and clean the house. Both these things seem to collide with such force, it feels like a riot is breaking out in the house; There’s yelling and screaming and people running everywhere, some armed with weapons such as dust busters and mops, others desperately trying to cling on to there treasured wrapping paper as the authorities try to destroy it. In the end, no one wins, and there is a silence as all the armys retreet to their respective bedrooms.

On top of all this cleaning, arguing, panic and confusion lies the most irritating question; what is my new years resolution going to be? In past, I never had one. Mainly because I had no idea what it was. But then everyone else was doing it, so in my easily peer pressured ways (I joke…) I decided to have one. But every year I have no idea what I want to change. It’s an evil thing that should be destroyed! I could simply not do it, but I only realize how hard it is at 11:58pm December 31st. Then its a matter of rushing around screaming at people “WHAT ARE YOU DOING FOR RESOLUTION! Oo?” and they always run away.

Since the majority of all songs made this year have been epic, and most of this years songs are better than the rest of the decades songs put together, I feel DJ Earworm is amazingly awesome. He made a mash -up of the best songs of 2009;

“Why did you get twitter D:< ?" December 28, 2009

Well dear friend let me tell you. THROUGH INTERPRETIVE DANCE!

Once upon a time, perhaps centuries ago, perhaps last week, I was just like you. Bitter and angry with everything. Anything that dared to become popular and therefore creating fan-boys and girls, was the pit of hell! But then I realised; it was a warm Christmas day, and I sat at my computer, trolling sites about how Team My Ass should be in the new twilight book, when it came across me! “NOBODY BUT ME CARES WHAT I HAVE TO SAY!”  It was a discovery that I sometimes wish I had never come across.

This discovery snatched me from my blind world of comfort and anti twi(tter/light) religion. I sat there, frozen to the spot. It hurt so much. The meer fact was, and it seemed I may have been the first man to discover such a new idea, that just because I sepnd my days refusing to join twitter, and trolling Stephenie Gayer fansites that I was acheiving: NOTHING!

This kind of discovery can be likened to a drug addiction. It has changed me. First, I found myself pressured into joining twitter by peers, but then… then it started. The hunger, the need. I found myself, down the back allies of the internet, sites like twitpic and youtube vlogging channels. Then, my online life changed more and more. I could not talk to anyone unless it was twitter or blog form. My usual corrispondents became so distant to me.

There is no cure. But I can prevent it!

Just follow the link http://twitter.com/pseudoado, create an account, press ‘follow’ and I shall tell you. MWAHAHAHA.

Merry Crate Day! December 27, 2009

Hey,

Merry crate day to all who celebrate this spiritual occasion through the utilisation of food, drink and socialisation. Of coarse Crate Day is the day were we all pack up the boxes we used on Boxing Day to store presents from Christmas Day into crates, thus we have Crate Day. Tomorrow as I’m sure you know, is shipping container day.

I only just realized that there’s only 362 days until Christmas! Better get up the Christmas Tree!

I have spend the majority of my morning playing Left for Dead #1 (Yes, I live in Australia) and taking pictures with my edible camera (not for eating.) Then I got a chocolate headache and went back to bed. Yes, yes my life is this interesting. Fact.

Boxing Day December 27, 2009

A day late? Why yes, I am. Merry Christmas/Hannukah/Boxing Day/Winter Solstice/Kwanzaa/holidays, everyone.

You know how everyone opens their presents on Christmas Day, and Santa Claus visits on Christmas Eve by popping down the (possibly inexistent) chimney and consuming all the milk and cookies in the house?

Well.

When I was a kid, back in the good old days, MY AUNT TOLD MY MOTHER that PRESENTS WERE OPENED ON BOXING DAY!

You heard right. Not Christmas day, oh no. Boxing Day. Well, my mother believed her. And for about five years, I got my presents a day later than everyone else. Poor neglected me. Not that I ever realised, of course. Before the days of internet addiction I didn’t have much contact with my fellow childlings during Christmastime.

This is the great dilemma I had when I was a kid: I was sure that everyone got their presents on Boxing Day, just like me. But in every story I had heard, Santa Claus came on the night of Christmas Eve! What was going on? Did everyone just ignore their presents during Christmas? That was impossible! So maybe the stories had it all wrong, and Santa’s presents only arrived on Christmas night. Or, people actually did ignore their presents for a full 24 hours. Or even, now that I think about it, Santa lived in USA timezones and Australia’s Christmas Eve was simply too early for him.

It never did occur to me that maybe, people did get their presents on Christmas. It was just me that got them the next day.

A side effect of all this confusion, combined with my general unknowledge of dates, was that for about two years I don’t think I actually knew what day Christmas was. Only that it was just some time in December. Magically one morning, my parents would wake me up and be very happy about the fact that it was Christmas. That’s all I knew.

Have a great new year, guys!

Nebular Spool December 26, 2009

Hey,

Let me start of by recommending two of the most brilliant songs I have heard in a very long time; The first being a rather well known popular song called Firefly’s by Owl City. The first song to be number 1 on the charts that is actually good in quite some time. The second is a song called Ruins by Nebular Spool; a really strange but awesome song, but only if you like weird, melancholic, dark songs like me and my classical-modernist-dark-emotastic musical ways. I found the bands name amusing so stole it for the title

Anyway, I just got back from what was to just be buying an xd card (yes yes epic name right), and I ended up going -shudder- clothes shopping. Now this is an art I am yet to learn. I have no idea what looks bad or good, but I settled for this shirt from jeep, which is where I always get my shirts, which all look the same, for me and my male brain find it hard to try something else and stick with almost exactly the same shirt as last time, for in the wise words of one Hamish Blake “We know it works.”

I’m no fan of takeaway, but I got dinner form HJ’s tonight. MY GOD. I had a bacon deluxe. I thought it tasted ok, but if you want my advise don’t open this burger up before you put this lard sandwich in your mouth; I made this mistake and was welcomed with site of horrible plastic cheese griping this weird pink stuff together with the ‘meat.’ Lovely.

I have a question; therefore I shall put it to you as a statement. I have no idea if we still have any people who actualy read this blog, and if we did i’m possitive they will have given up on hope during the post drought. I could just check the dashboard but a certain CFBGW will not make me an admin the heathonic fool >.>! There I hope that was subtle.

A Tasty Christmas Post December 26, 2009

Hey,

In the last few months I ceased to exist, so it became very difficult to make blog posts. Luckily, through the magic of science I have been cloned, and can now live on in my new self. A good excuse me thinks.

Happy Christmas, although it is technically boxing day where I am.  Boxing day is to Christmas, as a hangover is to a brilliant night. You spend all day trying to remember what you got for Christmas whenever someone asks you, and then you spend all morning with a chocolate headache. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all turkey sandwiches, and the relatives are still leaching of you. Good ol’ boxing day.

I had an awesome Christmas day however, full of eating, presents, more eating, more chocolate oriented presents, more eating and then Christmas lunch, which was essentially just more eating. I spent my afternoon taking photos on my new tasty camera and ninjaring around in this wicked new tardis shirt. After the grandparental units took off we went to family friends for dinner and much entertainment. We ended up playing buzz trivia, and then watching Grease until 1 in the morning.

Then I woke up in my bed (of all places) and read through most of the books I was given. Then I had an epiphany. I’m not sure what brought it on; the extreme amounts of chocolate and caffeine, or just the depressing feeling boxing day brings on, but whatever the case I came to a realization that this blog is still in existance. I dived for my computer, and hit my head. I was out cold for 3 hours. But then i woke up, and ran for my PC, switched it on and cried a merry ‘HARAH!’ as I pressed ‘new post’. And then I started talking to you guys.

Of coarse as it’s Christmas time, what could be more welcome than some festive pope bowling? A woman tackled the pope the other day in a wild attempt to hug him (god knows why (gedit?))

Oh funny. And in the words of the great Ross Noble himself;

“If the pope doesn’t want to be bowled over, maybe he shouldn’t dress like a skittle”

Merry Christmas/Boxing day/Post Huniku(chunika\hunuku\hunica) week/kwanzaa/national gravy day.

Manlove/Creepystalkerlove to you all -adophoneshome

HOLIDAYS December 8, 2009

First day of the holidays. I’m bored.

And thus is the dilemma of the holidays – school, where you’re not so bored… or home, where you can rest but you have absolutely nothing to do?

Actually that’s not too much of dilemma, since holidays beat school any day. You can catch up with your friends without the added stress of classes and teachers and food fights at the tuckshop and zombie attacks.

@Zombie attacks – zombie attacks are definitely safer if they happen on holidays, because it just so happens that rifles and shotguns and other zombie-killing weapons are not allowed at school. But on holidays, free access for all! Shoot them undeads straight through the skull!

Gun rights and “get off mah propertay”, y’all know that.

Also, first week of the holidays: nothing beats walking past the local schools who aren’t on holidays yet. Yeah guyz, I’m done with school and you’re not! Good fun until some crazed eight year old starts chasing you down with their lunchbox in a fit of jealousy.

…Summer holidays are the best, anyhow. It’s boiling hot, you’ve got a bunch of new presents from Christmas, and you’re sitting in air-conditioned climate-killing coolness all day. What could be better? Maybe having a machine gun-wielding flying helicopter attack shark would be, but who says you can’t put that on your Christmas list?

Have a great holiday, and merry Christmahanukwanzaramadasolstice to all!

November? Already? November 3, 2009

Ah November, thou art a sneaky bastard. November is once again here. as it is every year, at the same time, for the same time. Except in leap years. Damn February, making everyone late (Or really young in Frank Woodley’s case.) because it feels the need to be special and different. Any way, I digress. Alot. The point, (if it can be called that) is That November is here. Hooray! Because November is here, which means that the end of the year draws nearer. (Thank god) This also means that school is almost over, Christmas is almost here, and that I, yet again, have to again, take up my quest to find a way to hibernate through summer. I really do not like Summer. I would much prefere to be Really cold, than about TO MELT. The best thing about Summer is icecream. But I can eat icecream in Winter (Which I do).

Oh, fruit is another good thing about summer, I really like Summer fruit. (Better than the bananas and apples that are mushy when they should be crunchy, that I have been eating for the rest of the year.) But, once again, FOILED! You can get frozen berries, and preserved peaches and the like all year round. Although, granted, it’s not the same, but I’m sure they’re currently working on some sort of genetically modifed super fruit, that combines all of the summer fruits, and grows all year round. What else would bored scientists be doing?

Anyway, school’s almost over, and Christmas is on it’s high-powered flame-skates, and is on it’s way. And I am… Really excited. I can’t wait! I hope I get that ice suit I want so I may be able to SURVIVE Summer.

 

Faretheewell my dear readers! (Whoever you are).
