I've now won 8 and lost 15 battles. Bawk, people have no taste.

I think I now know why Alastor Moody from Harry Potter has this name. There´s a greek word that sound like alastor.

'meanwhile in my head, i've been undergoing open-heart surgery"

The plumber watches me make an entire pot of tea, and then tells me "one flush only". You cruel, cruel bastard.

random isn't working today

Look over there! A tree that looks like a cat!

Why is there Easy Cook Rice? Are you telling me that rice is so hard to cook they made easy cook rice? Rice which is cooked in the exact same way as normal rice thus being just as easy? What's wrong with this planet.

Why is it that microwaves have to beep every time I push a button on it?

Why all of the sudden does no software or devices want to save any custom settings I submit? My car does not. Server software does not. Phone does not. The common factor is me... but I checked the "remember" box, and I didn't program the dang things.

I'm not understanding why the 4th dimension is time. Does that mean that 2D space has no time? I thought extending to the 4th dimension from the 3rd would be the same as 2nd to the 3rd, just another reality. Just as a 2D object in the 2D space would be entering another reality if it were to enter 3D space, a 3D object would enter another reality if it were to enter 4D space, then 4D to 5D, Then 5 to 6 and so on.
Where exactly does time come into this? I'm just not understanding that at all. And now I'm so confused I've forgot my work shift for tomorrow.

my friend and i were talking about 7-up and it's use as a cure for stomach illnesses and we realised that that was nothing partial to our cultures- it was a brown thing in general.

Free advice!

So I have a queen-sized bed. I use the half that I don't sleep on for storing various things, including a set of dumbbells.
Tonight, one of my pillows was next to one of the dumbbells. In a moment of tiredness, I went and flopped down so that my head landed on the pillow.

Except it didn't.

Do not land head-first on dumbbells. It really f*****g hurts.

tonight on "a current affair", there was a "feel good" story about a policeman who died in the line of duty. the whole show was dedicated to this story. the policeman had a house and land that he had planned to renovate, but he was killed before he could perform the renovation.

the house and property looked like it was worth about 1.2 million dollars before the $600,000 renovation that he had planned (he must have had the $600,000 saved in order to have intended to do a $600,000 renovation).

so everyone came to the rescue and volunteered to do the renovation for free ("oh the love and compassion" (said in the same tone as the hindenburg disaster reporter)).

apparently everyone was a hero for donating their time and products for free in order to complete the renovation at no cost to the policeman's wife and kids. i realize i may be overly cynical, but i saw the show as one giant advertisement. people said they had taken the day off in order to contribute their free labor toward the goal of being humanitarian, but everyone who was working on the renovation had their business logo's boldly displayed on their shirts, and they all took the time to describe how they were the best in their class. one days salary for their best looking employees is all they had to sacrifice for a 30 minute advertisement for their business. most of the companies (kitchen builders and plumbers and furniture companies and landscapers etc etc) were always to be seen somewhere in the background after they had had their highlight interview.

the renovations included spa baths and entertainment systems and the building of a separate teenager retreat (complete with pool tables) building on their 2 acre property. their floors were marble and their kitchen was stunning and the policemans wife was trying to fake crying in gratitude for the heart felt humanity of these logo wearing studs that were the chosen people to perform on the show. she seemed non plussed about all she was given even though she tried to act disarmed and emotional. the whites of her eyes remained white, and she looked like she was an amateur trying to act like she was shaken by the generosity of all these wonderful companies that joined in the effort.

her kids looked even less appreciative, and they seemed like they were impatient for the press to leave so they could enjoy what they were given.

everyone in the field of view of the camera throughout the show was good looking, and there were people in the audience holding babies who were all pretending to be astonished at the generosity of all these companies.

a few thousand dollars of merchandise and labor was all these companies had to spend for a 30 minute ad that made them look like saints.

also, during the ad breaks, all the companies who's logos (boldly emblazoned on their uniforms) i saw during the show, aired their usual ads.

what a scam. either i am sadly misguided and mistrusting, or else i am not seduced mindlessly like most of the people who saw this show.

i should have found an appropriate thread to post this in, but there are none, and i know that by tomorrow, this post will be five pages back, and by next week, it will be only evident to paleontologistic readers.

Me: *Is casually browsing and talking on sites* *suddenly notices a big spider on the floor*
Errr...there's a spider on the floor! *Puts her legs up on the chair*

My brother: How big is it?

Me: Quite big

My brother: How big is it?

Me: I said it's quite big *Watches the spider move along the floor
No! Don't come near me! *Stamps on the floor to scare it away*
*Watched it move away, then near, then away again as she almost stands on the chair**Watches the spider move near the open door*
It's there.

My stepdad: And? It's not near you is it?

Me: But what if it turns around and comes near me?

My stepdad: Then move

Me: *Unplugs her computer while looking back at the spider, then carefully tries to move as far as she can with the computer and stuff into the front room*

I'm usually the one that helps spiders.
