Okay, So Maybe I’ll Just Start With Lust, Anger and Sloth

January 29, 2001

From now on, I’ll probably never have to worry about what the hell a baguette is ever again. They’ve been appearing on my work cafeteria’s menu board for some time now and have caused continual debate. From now on, I probably won’t ever get to visit the Powerhouse Museum’s LEGO Action Show with my boss. [...]

Unt Rammstein Concert Unt Frozen Chicken!

January 28, 2001

Adam, Rick and myself saw the Rammstein concert on Wednesday night last week. Adam and I were going to travel to Rick’s place together, but when I rang Adam he said he might be working a bit late. ‘You can’t work too late, you know,’ I pressed. I got a loud yell in response – [...]

Rating Your Long Weekend

January 27, 2001

It was Australia Day yesterday. Thanks to a invasive British settlement which resulted in an Aboriginal genocide, Australians got Friday off work! I’m sure many people will be having wild weekends due to the holiday, so I present for you today a tool to guage how good your weekend really was. Please use on a [...]

Generic Conversation With a Metallica Fan

January 23, 2001

Metallica fan: Oi! Oi! Oi! Me: Oh, I see a Metallica song is the most played song on this jukebox. Metallica fan: Yes! They’re the best! Me: That’s what Napster users tell me. Metallica fan: Um… Napster? Me: Never mind. Metallica fan: Oi! Oi! Oi! (bangs head) Me: So. They’re a bit crap now, aren’t [...]

Melbney

January 21, 2001

As I have mentioned previously, I will shortly be relocating myself back to Melbourne. Living in Sydney has been a great experience (not counting the hordes of British backpackers), but I believe Melbourne is the place for me to be. Which is a pity, because although I prefer Melbourne over Sydney, there are aspects of [...]

Tragic Fall Into Democracy

January 20, 2001

Scene: A Russian spaceship, late 1960′s Cosmonaut 1: How many days have we been here now? Cosmonaut 2: Three days. Cosmonaut 1: Such an amazing journey. Cosmonaut 2: Yes. (An explosion sounds, followed by an alarm) Cosmonaut 1: What is that? Cosmonaut 2: Alarm! A puncture in the craft, most likely. Cosmonaut 1: Shit! Cosmonaut [...]

Four Insults

Spiderdick

January 16, 2001

Recently I was lying in bed and saw a strange shape moving around in the blinds covering the window above me. After giving the blinds a quick whack, I realised that it was one mother of a giant spider. ‘It’s a tarantula!’ Adam murmured, half asleep next to me. ‘I don’t think so,’ I replied. [...]

Why the Earth Doesn’t Fall

January 15, 2001

My boss and I have been known to frequent a particular eatery on our lunch breaks. They serve nice food and the atmosphere is ambient (read: not filled with sneezing children and an all-you-can-eat bar). There is a reason we don’t visit the eatery that often, though. The reason is an American waitress named Amber. [...]

Boycotts

January 14, 2001

This is a list of everything I’ve ever spoken badly about in my journal, up until today. Er… I don’t really boycott these things, you know… however, it doesn’t take much for me to badmouth something. Anyway, on with the list, in chronological order. Sydney CityRail Security Staff STARTED BOYCOTT: MARCH 16 1999 I put [...]
