The Sky News Drinking Game

November 6, 2002

God bless Sky News. Filling the obligatory void for a news channel on Australia’s cable TV networks, they really do try so earnestly, it brings a tear to your eye.
I watch Sky News almost out of pity now – when those in the media industry used to note offhand that newsreaders had lost their jobs [...]

I Could Have Been a Hero

October 30, 2002

One calendar year has almost rolled around since I began this job. It feels like I’ve only been employed here for a much shorter time than I actually have though, which I’m pretty sure is a good thing. (Or is that when you’re having great sex? Hmm).
It’s only become apparent to me that my stature [...]

If You Ever Needed Any Further Evidence that America is Slightly Self-Absorbed

October 23, 2002

Disembodied phone voice: Thank you for calling E*Trade America’s international customer service hotline! Are you currently an E*Trade customer? Please say… (dramatic pause) Yes or.. (dramatic pause) No.
Jeb: Yes. (dramatic pause)
Disembodied phone voice: I’m sorry. I did not understand that. Please say… (dramatic pause) Yes or.. (dramatic pause) No.
Jeb: YES.
Disembodied phone voice: I’m sorry. I [...]

Diet Pornography

October 21, 2002

I bump and grind and oil myself up.
My eyebrow may rise suggestively, but my genitalia does not.
Frantically, I make exaggerated faux-masturbation motions behind an extremely frosted shower door.
I may dry hump someone like two drunken high school students, but still manage to cop a dose of what seems to be incurable impotence.
Oh yes. I am [...]

Shampoo Diamond

October 20, 2002

Now, I’m a sucker for any kind of grocery-based promotion. Any contest which requires you to consume some variety of perishable much faster than you healthily should, in order to determine if some sort of prize is at the bottom of the packet, really tickles my marketing-related-activities g-spot.
The latest contest I’d noticed on our weekly [...]

Crisis Service Provider

September 12, 2002

It’s not every day you’re standing patiently at the traffic lights, idly performing your anal clench exercises when an elderly lady pulls a Jason Donovan and spontaneously falls to the ground.
I don’t mean a simple fall to the ground. I mean full-on, stay stiff as a plank and fall in a perfect arc, oh-my-god-what-are-all-these-purple-rats-running-around-me Jason [...]

Banjo Hair

September 4, 2002

‘What’ll it be,’ sighs the beleaguered hairdresser with the enthusiasm of someone naked in a bathtub, filled to the brim with sulfuric acid.
‘Spikes, please,’ I politely reply, and engage in that awful hairdressing predicament where you’re forced to confront your own realities of ugly disfigurement, and stare yourself in the eyes for a full ten [...]

I Can’t Find My Prostate

August 24, 2002

Some friends of mine already know about this and have likely already chortled at my astounding lack of basic knowledge. I’ve now been forced to post this here too because I lost a, uh… bet.
Look. The simple story is that I forgot the word “prostate” when I was trying to explain something to a friend. [...]

Sizzling

August 23, 2002

‘There’s got to be somewhere we can eat,’ moaned Adam, as we trudged our way around the block for the third time.
Yes, even though we live on a street renowned for its higgeldy-piggeldy range of international cuisine which can result in varying stages of bowel problems; we are never able to agree where to eat [...]
