The Easiest Goddamn Job in the World

September 8, 2009

The easiest way to make an incredibly large amount of money seems to be joining the ranks of brain-dead IT analysts. Just this week, I’ve found the following quotes from analysts in various IT news articles: “Apple may introduce new iPod models at its “rock and roll” event on Sept. 9.” HOLY SHITBALLS, NO KIDDING. [...]

Why I Suspect ATM Actually Stands for Artistic Taste Moderator

June 15, 2009

Despite my childhood fear of the Village logo as mentioned in my last post, Adam and I overcame adversity and saw The Hangover at our local Village cinema this weekend. Buying cinema tickets online has always seemed like a no-brainer to me, mostly because you can choose your own seat when the cinema has allocated [...]

Look at this Quality Consumer Electronics Product! Also, My Breasts!

June 22, 2002

Wary as I am of such nerd-herding events as Consumer Electronics Shows, the vast and promising expanse of a weekday off work propelled me to the event regardless. It seemed like a pretty cool event. Yet I was quick to discover this was by and large to be populated by vaguely outdated gadgets with internet [...]

Leatherman

May 16, 2002

For weeks I’ve been relentlessly battered with technical information about Adam’s magical knife/screwdriver object his work is purchasing for him. Somehow, no matter how mundane my actions, I’m continually advised that the arrival of this fabled object will be able to enhance my lifestyle. This included everything from eating cereal (“It probably even has a [...]

Peanut Butter Enema

July 18, 2000

Adam’s having sex with celebrities again. Bad Adam! Well, not really. But at the pub he’s a bouncer at on Saturday night, there was a private party with lots of Triple J radio announcers present. Adam’s not really sure if it was her or not (she’s definitely a Triple J radio announcer but he’s not [...]

Is Your Communist Electrical Friend Home?

July 16, 2000

So how did most of Australia’s highest-ranking politicians celebrate Federation Day, marking 100 years of Australian federation? By leaving the country. On Thursday morning, I was in a whirlwind trying to get ready for work and still catch the train on time. I was trying to inhale two pieces of toast whole, when I heard [...]

The ABC is Run by Evil Sparrows

May 28, 2000

We’re having problems with our lights at the moment. We have to replace the lightblubs for one particular light on almost a weekly basis, but now it just won’t turn on at all. The fuse must have blown or something. Torana came around to visit us and immediately started laughing at us because we were [...]

The Free Crap Gauntlet Run

May 16, 2000

It was Mother’s Day on Sunday. I agreed to drive Adam and his two brothers to their mum’s place, which is near here, but not exactly walking distance. When they got back, Adam’s brothers gave me beer for my trouble. Is life always this good for taxi drivers? Sheesh, I might have to go buy [...]

This Food Tastes Like Armpit

May 8, 2000

From Tuesday to Friday last week I did temp work at a pretty interesting company. I really enjoyed it – the company treats its employees VERY well. I had a little trouble finding the company, which had two entrances to their building. I entered one entrance, hoping I’d picked the right one. Me: Hi, I’m [...]

Did You Also Get the Betamax Injection?

March 10, 2000

There’s only a week left until I finish my current job. One of the girls who sits in my cubicle pod at work wanted to organise for us all to go to the pub next Friday for a farewell piss-up, but everyone’s lunches are on at different times. So now one of the women are [...]
