The most hated OS
Yesterday I had the (dis)pleasure of reinstalling Windows on a friend’s computer. Oh god Windows is a bitch. I mean, I knew that already, but it’s a little easier to ignore the awfulness when you’re dealing with your own computer. I keep telling myself that I’m too… normal for Apple products, in the same way that I’m not cool enough to buy those ridiculous...

Holy fuck it's good to be out of the dial-up...
In other news, Justin Bieber is infecting my tv, on an ad showing a montage of 2010’s “moments that made history”. I love culture.

"Artificial vagina"?
Sometimes Judges say certain things that scare me. Maybe I’m a little naive, but I don’t really know what an artificial vagina consists of. All I can figure out is that in this case the respondant apparently bought one so that he could use parts of it to stop his stereo speakers from vibrating. All in all, I’m sick of dealing with sexual offence cases.

This morning I realised that I am the kind of awful person who puts post-it notes on things reminding people to please put the cap back on when they’re done.

Romantic thoughts
Holy shit this judgment is depressing. Having to read about people who obviously had had a pretty good life together and then eroded each other’s sanity so dramatically has made me die a little on the inside. Seriously, these people are crazy. How does anyone get to the point that they literally try to destroy their partner? Forging your husband’s signature, transferring jointly...

So remember how I was trying to get myself fired?
Mission accomplished.

Generational lack of knowledge:
-what is a pager and how do they work and when early 90’s musicians mention them is it just class based social commentary or did everybody use one?- Sadly, this has been the most coherent thought I’ve had in weeks.

+1 to metrosexuality?
Reasons # 1 & 2 why I am not Mr. Universe: I still have a kind of hair flick thing left over from the days when I was a rebellious 15 year old and had long hair. I imagine that with (reasonably) short hair it just makes me look like a dick. I realised today that I am now one of those man-bag guys. I started using a satchel type thing to carry my stuff into work, and apparently became so used...

Currently I am trying to get fired from one of my jobs. I have dropped my work rate, but since I am in a room by myself most of the time, nobody has noticed. I have also substantially lowered the quality of my work, but since my boss doesn’t actually read the reports I produce for her, nobody has noticed. The problem is that they’re too nice to fire me, and I’m too nice to...

If I said that I didn’t fail, I wouldn’t be lying, but I would also be substantially dumbing down the truth. Nevertheless, lack of failure is the only way I can descibe my life, lest I jinx myself. So I’ll just leave it at that.

Ok, tonight is final results night
It’s 9.30 and I am sufficiently drunk. I have Dimmer’s Degrees of Existence playing in the background in case it all goes horribly wrong. Wish me luck.
