tinterwebs

you know what I really love about the internet?

Its the versatility.



I mean where else can you have Holst's Jupiter playing in one tab while you read a choice selection of webcomics in a few others, surf google for tips on literary analysis in another, and have a movie downloading in the background?

That's kind of crazy when you think about it.
*sigh*
lovely.




Oh, and by the way: Holst= fecking genius, so if you haven't heard his Planets suite, I'd suggest you close this browser pronto and listen to them on the tube. There's a few playlists that'll take you from one to the other sans the button pressing ^^

Wow.

I just found out that Blind Melon- No Rain (undoubtedly my favourite song in the world ever) beat Nirvana in the 1993 Trip J Hottest 100.



I am feeling happy.

Transformers

Okay, this is late, but last week I went to see the new transformers movie- y'know the one that all the critics turned their nose up at, saying "Pah! Bilge!" and then it hit the $200 mil box office sales mark and was given a thumbs up by fans who realised that the continuity (or lack thereof) was, in fact, only a minor setback in relation to creating a 'realistic' film when compared to the giant robots which turned into oversized Hotwheels trucks.

And y'know what that film made me realise? It wasn't that Michael Bay's talent as a director has grown and developed so much over the years...



...Or that the Transformers franchise has been the source of so many "original" storylines...

*not-really-a-spoiler alert*

... No. What it made me realise was that in some small way, the creations of the 80s- possibly the most mind-numbingly awful era in the history of humanity- still manage to control the lives of unsuspecting people almost 30 years later.



God help us.


(although, that's not to say that the 80s were all bad. It was, really, the decade of comics- I mean, V for Vendetta. Need I say more? <3)

Oh la la!

Okay, so I came back from body balance ("And now back into the sun warrior- oh, I think my face has had a little run in with the sun warrior, hahaha!") with Leesha and we decided to COMPLETELY REVAMP MY ROOM. So now the desk and the bed have switched places and I'm looking at my room from an angle I've never seen it at before. Very nice. I do love change.

Also this comes at a good time, as I had to tidy my room up so that when Annabel and Cam and Maddie come over for film WINNAGE on thursday they don't catch some sort of biological hazard-related disease from being within a 500m radius of my room. And as well as being a healthy environment, it will now look all different and nice for them. Well, for Maddie anyhoo, as I don't think Annabel or Cam have seen my room before. But you get the idea.

Proof, for anyone who doesn't believe me.

Fuck yes, people. I have won the internets.

I am having fun.

... but i'm not a sir. I'm a ma'am. =__=

Public Transport Etiquette

Okay, question for you all.

Y'know when you're sitting on a bus next to some stranger, and the seat in front of/beside/near you is occupied by one other person, and then that person gets off the bus, leaving two empty seats?

Well, is it more or less polite to move into the other seats? I mean, what do I do? I've seen people stare solidly at this empty spot of antisocial glory and not move, and I've seen people make a mad dash for it too. Which one do you do?

Because if you dash like a loon from your seat, then you might give the stranger next to you the impression that you couldn't possibly stand sitting next to them, which might hurt their feelings. Similarly, though, if you hang around and take up too much room, mebbe the stranger's gonna think "Hurry the fuck up and get outta here," and get real pissed.

Is it just that we can't stand sitting next to someone else on the bus? Have we become such an antisocial bunch of arseholes that even a close proximity to someone else gives us an adequate reason to act like we gots the runny shits?

Please help. I don't want to be shitted on next time I take the bus.

Math class

Its okay. Don't feel bad about dissing our maths class. I already diss it on a regular basis every day. I do this with use of the sarcastic question technique- Observe:


I asked a question the other day in logic.
I asked this:

"So, basically the question is saying, "the answer is yes what is the answer"?"

and my math teach said:

"Basically."




And so, in light of the fact that I am SURROUNDED BY IDIOTS, I have a new life goal. I am going to pass the time until I die in some kickass way. Y'know, like motorbiking or something fun and insane like that.

That way, my last words will be
"FUCK YEAH."


And I think it would be nice to end on a high note.
