Posting stuff

Do not ask me how I found this.

It's just the best shit I've ever seen at youtube.

Just click already.

Oh. Right. Posting stuff

I haven't posted anything in a while, either because I've been busy, been useless or simply had no ideas or forgotten about the ideas when I had time.

Well. You get the idea.

Just to cheer you up, here is a nice and weird music video you can waste 3 minutes watching. There's some weird shit at the end that may not be safe for work, but the music video itself is damn cool, and the song is pretty good too.

Christmas present of the year, or maybe not

Some people get along fine with their ex's and a lot of people don't.

Whoever designed this nice knife-rack probably falls into the latter category. While definitely nasty, I must admit I absolutely love this one. Let's just call it a good nasty, shall we?

This simply represents a so raw and uncencored display of emotion that it's almost impossible to not feel touched at some level.

Today's sight: A beautiful junkie

Today I saw something special: a motivated junkie. And what a beautiful sight it was!

It goes without saying that one thing that characterizes any major city, is its share of problem childs. People who have fallen victim to variouses substances, be it alcohol or harder drugs. People who have failed to manage reality, and somewhere in the process have become one-dimensional creatures whose main characteristic is being unable to move, speak coherent or do anything worthwhile. Unless ofcourse, when aiming for a new fix. This is how we usually see them, and this is how we expect them to be: A loathed subspecies of the human race.

Because I haven't posted anything in a while...

Marketing

I got this in the mail last week, and found it quite amusing, so here is a quick & dirty translation.

Marketing for women

You're at a party and spot a handsome guy. You approach him and say "I'm pretty good in the bedroom". This is direct marketing.

You're at a party and spot a handsome guy. You approach him and ask for his phonenumber. The following day you call him up and say "I'm pretty good in the bedroom". This is tele-marketing.

You're at a party with a few friends. You spot a handsome guy, and one of your friends approaches him and tells him "She is pretty good in the bedroom". This is advertising.

Computer support

I've worked enough with support trough my life to know that something just ain't worth it no matter what the pay is. I'll let my family abuse me every once in a while just because I'm nice, but that's it.

In short: Computer support is hell and not worth it. Seemingly this guy didn't get the news.

Tokyo Game Show 2006: The world biggest game show

When you go to the other side of the planet to see a game show, someone might think taking a look at the games might be grand idea. Others evidently decides they can spend their time doing anything else once there.

Like this guy. No mention of games, only how his pictures didn't turn out that great and that unlike all the others, the Xbox360 boothbabe refused to let him take a picture of her.

LOLOLotw

Ok, so I don't usually read User Friendly, but someone threw a link in my face, and this one is actually rather funny. Again: for geeks. This is User Friendly, for crying out loud.

So here it is: Todays strip of User Friendly. As an added bonus, reading this strip will make my headline make sense.

“It's unacceptable to think"

Hinting that it comes from a president in some country with nukes, I'll give you two seconds to guess who may have said these words.

Right. As always: George Bush delivers a speech incredibly amusing or frightening beyond belief. All depending on if you find his obvious stupidity amusing or take into consideration he actually is the president over there.

Evidently the administration of the country spreading freedom & democracy™ find it unacceptable that people not only question their government, but just to think a single thought yourself instead of obeying blindly is now clearly unacceptable.
