I found this on my hard drive... I'd forgotten about it. Let me just put on my Lollerskates:
while catching up with stuff
and telling dan to shh, I was wondering to myself....
Why do I blog?
This question can be split into numerous divisional aspects of conflucting semi-precarious argumentitive agendas defining the very substantial objective analytical conundrum that presented itself forthwith unduely expressed in exotensiable verse. I think:
- So I have an outlet to talk random gunf.
- So I can record the various sayings I make up. Like gunf. and Cranch.
- So if I lose my memory like Unknown White Male dude I can vaguely work out what sort of person I was.... though maybe this would be the worse place to rediscover myself as I may assume I come under the category of "Mentally worrysome and naughty
Latest Addiction: Lost... again
I often wonder
how lucky it is I'm moderatly waterproof, especially when we play footie and it completely tips down and soaks us. Still was fun and I fell over enough times to make it worthwhile.
Then we traversed to the twits birthday bbq, which was the yum. And finally we went to the pub, but we were all too tired to do anything of any use.
Tuesday? why yes it did happen, and I drove coli-wobble to Swindon, did some gardening and then drove back all his shizzle. and I got kfc out of it. I like kfc. Which was a coincidence really.
Also some crazy dutch van tried to destroy me on the motorway by swerving from the 3rd lane into the 1st lane, which I happened to be occupying. Luckily my near super-powered reaction time saved everyone involved. Stupid white vans *nods to rex*
Snakes On A Mother-hubbard Plane Y'all
whoa cowboy, now thats an awesome film and 10 thirds. Seriously, go see it. NOW.
***Spoilers***
Things that were awesomely awesome in the movie:
- "sporks!?"
- Trouser Snake
- Breasticalur attack
- Tongue snake....
- The absurdness of how the "I've had it with these motherfucking Snakes..."etc line was put in the film, hilarious.
- Samuel L Jackson being awesome, and stealing a gun off a dude faster than u can imagine
- SLJ getting the girl as always
- Too many to remember
- Snakes
- On
- A
- Plane
So how, u may ask, did we keep the awesome filmness going? There was only one way really, to ruffle's and to watch Evil Dead 2. Too much uber filmage brain meltage. Whoop.
whoa boi, thats too much alcohol
for one day, yet highly awesome as well. As one does on a birthday celebration we went to the harvy at 11am for breakfast and started the drinkin sesh, then onwards to london, but not before first finding colin and grabbing a pint from the maxwell (that we had to drink in about 2 minutes).
After a quick stop off in beckenham to go to the box bar and find Claire, we mosyed onwards to london where we went to an awesome rileys, where we pooled, and drank, and met andy and chris, and Sam got the entire place evacuated. *slaps head*
Then onwards to a pizza buffet and then towards the club. Before hand we drank in the pub next door and a few of us accidently went to a gay bar, which was pretty good. Finally we entered the Roxie, which was a bit small for what I expected, but trev assured me there are no big clubs in the entirety of london..... hmm. Still was good nite, me and dan drank a lot of pithcers over all, and everyone was nice and rosy. Most left to get last train, me dan, sam and shing (who kept inserting ice down my trousers!) stayed on a bit and danced the night away. Until it was a night bus time.
I hate the night bus
I really do.
Death to it.
ad finium (whatever that means)
I've decided to run episodic photo reminisicing content from our last time in the Ram in the Exeter. Its so sad *sobs* but there are some of the best photos ever from there, I think I stole them from chloe's camera, so props to her, so...
Episode 1:
and so they ring
and I'm all like "hey guy give me a job" and they're all like, k. Except not quite but u get the gist.
....
sorry just had to wee, right as I was saying. blargh. getting a job is a lot of hassle, especially when u get randomly interviewedon the phone or just called up at tesco or while driving in torrential rain. Bastards.
More interestingly the Body Mass Index reckons I'm overweight... *pause*... mothertruckers. I score 25.9, and a good score is 18.5-25... I not sure how I manage that really, I suspect my bones are made of lead.... wait... or adamantium. Well uber my schnizel and called me Simon.
Some more interesting information, of the top 10 best selling games of ALL time, every single one is made by Nintendo. And every single one is 2D. The biggest selling one is Super Mario Bros for the Nes, and it sold 40.24 million. The closet 3D game is Grand Turismo 3 with just 14.36million. More info here

anyway, I feel the "powers that be" are smiling upon me today, I ended up at the gym and was like shizzle-pops, I've forgot a quid for the lockers. I went into the changing rooms and the bench I sat at had a quid on it. How cunningly convienient.
Me? The 5th duke of lazypants, apply for a job? surely not? well maybe. I not entirely sure, the site confused me, shush.
Golf yesterday was awesome, not only did dan manage to hit himself with his own ball in the driving range, but I managed to convert a golf club into a pimp stick in one swift action. Not only this but it also resulted in the head of a golf club flying further than the golf ball. We then proved out skills were not gonna improve very soon as we tackled the 9 hole course in about 3 hours. In fact we were worn out by the 5th hole, so the only solution was down the pub with ad and russ. Much drinkin etc ensued and we all lived happily ever after.

I hate myspace
There you go I said it. It sucks. and SUCKS. and SUCK SUCK SUCKY SUCKS.
and here is why:
it is crap...
and every single myspace site is an amalgmation of horrendous design, font colours u can't read cos of the back ground, flashing crap and just general crap crap crap crap. I just don't see why or how "bad design" has caught on. Make it readable!!!!
*breathes* and now a joke:
Why do Snakes on a Plane?
your right I didn't really think the joke through, and i not even sure I gonna post this post. *giggles* I think raffle was right about my overdosing on strepsils (or at least generic non-brand alternatives) as being a bad thing. or did I say that?
someone help my brain :(
nrghle - just cranched myself
ah well, I need to finish my CV by 12, so I can send it to some fools in Exeter and they can all be like "hey guy, we already told you ur cv is good, now u've gone and hacked it up, you go to hell, you got to hell and you die."
Anyone noticed the weather is crummy. I have. I also noticed I never say crummy. But I should do more. Dangermouse COMPLETE!!1!11!eleven!! box set (12 DVD) for 29.99.
There's no real point to this blog. In its entirety in fact, but I was tired of my CV. Here's a song about it:
oh, Curriculum Vitae
your touch is a poise so unique
oh, Curriculum Vitae
I really don't like writing you because obviously I have too many skills to warrant just two pages which the careers advisors always tell you to use but you know I want to make sure my prospective employees really know all about me in case I miss something important out and then they're all like "hey guy you smell go back to bedfordshire" and then I'd be all like "what I don't come from there" and they'd be like "oh yeah ur not Dick A. round sorry about that, still you suck" and then I'd just know it was my cv and I should have spent another hour on it instead of writing a blog about nothing, but oh well what I guess I'm trying to say is
oh, Curriculum Vitae
you stink.
zOMG
So it would appear that a DS lite is way to distracting to be had anywhere near Tom. Also my eyes are melting....MELTING!!!!
Moving swiftly on it appears I've been doing my CV, man its hard, on a scale of 1 to "dammit why do I have so much to say and too many words to say it in", its around 7. Luckily I worked out how I used to work hard - thats right children its time to crack out the chilled out CDs, and acid Jazz.

or not.
you, at the back
yes you, suggest a title for this blog post. *sigh* oh nevermind.
you know those days when u end up paying 18 quid a minute for a quick oral? Me to, happened to me today, and the climax was exactly as I expected. Dentist was just like "hey guy, stop your teeth hacking up my eyes with their awesomeness". haw haw bet you thought I was talking about dirty dirty whore blow jobs... well I wasn't.... yeah...told you. look a racoon!
oki dammit I admit it, the main reason I go on youtube is to check if cocoanino has posted a new blog. Damn she is really really fine and cute and nice. *shakes fist at the world* I need a girlfriend. Preferably without me having to do anything. Like bake cakes. Or train cats. Or sew hats. natch.
Anyone hear of Paramore? they be cool, tho sound a bit like Avril Lavigne, but they're allowed to be cool cos they havn't "made it" yet. The Feeling - Never Be Lonely, is an awesome song as well. Note it down in your text books children.
A link you cry out for? hmm. awesome chandler outtakes, made me chuckle, now away with thee!

well indeed. Today I have mostly been waiting in bromley for my car to be serviced, which was quite relaxing and I even got round to writing an update letter to relatives and it turns out I can in fact write in a mature and mild-mannered way, as not once did I mention:
- my raving alcoholism (this is a joke future employers!)
- narf
- hats
- cakes
- or even the word cunning
I also got my DS Lite and ADSL wireless router today, which was moderatly nice. Except I have no games for my DS Lite, so its usefulness is on par with me. Major bummer on its part.
Not only all of this but Youtube has been down for quite a lot of today and has only just gone up again. dammit I thought of loads of bloggable content and now can't remember any of it. Stupid dentist tomorrow. On top of all of that I need to get more friends...

so someone made me addicted to youtube. which made me ponder my ultimate quest once more to create a video blog. However, not only am I less so photogenic (or videogenic) but I fear I'll have nothing to say, or comically do.
would be awesome tho. So comments, suggestions?
kewl photo of tungsten so put that in ur pipe and smoke it.
I've been mainly looking for undiscovered islands, to conquer, on Google Maps, and I wanna know what this island is called and why its blue! It can't be healthy by any means, I have found out tho that the island of Kiribati (with a population of just over 99,000) has passed a controversial law allowing the goverment to shut down papers. Naughty naughty people.
k fools I've found one, Saint Paul Island, or Île Saint-Paul. Its no more than 3 miles across and has a cabin. Furthermore there is meant to be jewish gold and diamonds there. bonus really. Adventurers wanting to join my expedition should write to me stating why and how naked they're prepared to get. good show.

Beard lost in hair-brained scheme!
This morning local peasent shave, Tom Barker lost his beard in a bizarre set of circumstances. He seemed non-plussed saying that he had "beard there done that" to which we pointed out "thats a very beard pun", to which he replied "it was a close shave". Did his religious belief help him through? "well Jesus shaves" was his reply. A eye witness claimed "I like beards they grow on you". Police say they will comb the local area and sift through the stubble. In the mean time Mr Barker only has his razer sharp wit to avoid a further brush with the law.man I crack my self up... *sigh*....onwards!

so it would appear
I am growing a beard, and/or stubble of sorts to become ruggedly handsome. I personally think my laziness has reached new levels but don't tell me that. I have wrote a haiku about it though
Beard not so cat like?
Ha, I laugh not at your throat
but the grass between

I've been meaning to write this post for a while now but I wanted to get my Blog fully up-to-date before I did. And i have. So brace yourself people.
A while ago I found out some bad news about my Dad, I found it out a few weeks, maybe a month or so ago and told a few people but then decided it may be best to let other people know via this, because I know how difficult it is to find what to say if someone says something like this to you. Don't think your any more or less of a friend if you don't know, I was just telling people on spur of the moment if they mentioned my dad.
So, about 2 months ago, possibly, my Dad got told he has 6-18months to live because they've exhausted all options to get rid of his cancer that keeps coming back. I don't want to be all mopey about this, and also don't wanna be like hiding my feelings as I hear thats how people go insane. Hopefully people havn't noticed any change in me in past month, which is good, cos I'm surprisingly not too worried about it. I was for the first few minutes I was told but then decided well my dad doesn't want me to stop living my life because of him.
So Happiness people, I'm not allowing comments on this post so people don't feel like they have to say something. Chin up ya scallywags ;)
on a lighter note, YES GODAMMIT, I have finished updating this blog. Now I can find a job (I decided doing a masters was just a way to avoid me getting off my ass and applying for jobs)
Also check out the professional Graduation Ball photos (at bottom of page) not bad apart from the ones when I forget to smile :P
nargh
damn my indecisiveness, This morning I wanted to go into the Games Industry. Now this evening I confused over whether I wanna get a job, get a masters or go travelling (again). Its all very annoying. Stupid fickle brain.
On a more organised note I've decided to put aside 10 quid a week towards the nintendo wii, which could get released as early as October 2nd. Then again I may not buy it. I need a job.
check out MC Lars, he's got a new album out (the graduate). Here's his video to the song, Download This Song
On a modelling note, I am now a Gay Model for Esquire.... oh no wait the other thing, I've downloaded a freeware open source 3D modelling package called blender. Bet you're glad you know that now.
