Chump Geek Twat

Yes, I plan to dress up like a Ghostbuster on Saturday night and yes I have spent some time researching the costume on line...but...jesus....take a look at this chump.

http://www.mkbmemorial.com/GBFF2002/GearedUp/CMGB/

Something I've often wondered...why do geeks always look like geeks...for example:

NHS glasses - Do these make them struggle to fit in socially so they become geeks or do they get these when then become geeks.
Spots - Do geeks become geeks (scared to leave the house, socially inept etc) because they have spots (or acne) or do they get acne and spot because they sit in the house staring at their computer all the time (with their hand on their face...causing spots).
ugliness - Does their ugliness cause them to shy away from society and become geeks or do they become ugly because they shy away from society and have no idea how not to look ugly.

I am, as it happens, a bit of a geek. Hopefully not as bad as that twat in the pictures above though. If I am, please shoot me.

The Mexican Bathers...

What a lucky lucky guy! An e-mail from a friend in the States (I'm sure she won't mind me posting it here)..

Hola, well in VERY INTERESTING ACTUAL NEWS yesterday guess who I met (by the way this is a pretty exciting email so pace yourself on the excitment, I don't want someone to find you heart attackalysed in front of the screen with this sweet little email sitting there looking every bit the killer)..... well only the Mexican Gareth Bathers!!!!! I dunno if you play this game... I mean it isn't even a game because when you see it (as in the Fat... the Chinese/Mexican/Russian/German.... the Elderly..... the Baby....) you can't help but be in the game and fuck me if it wasn't your exact Mexican version.. So very funny, a bit in the looks but mostly in the mannerisms (facial, body, handgestures, moving) , speech pattern, clothing choices... bonkers.. so if you ever wanted to know it, there is a Mexican version of you in Rosarito, Mexico and his name is Steven Felix, which, I'l grant you, doesn't sound very Mexican but I think his parents were thinking upwards mobility and he spent a few years north of the border and has really good English. He was showing us round some apartments and houses (not for us unfortunately though the million dollar ocean view apartment would be somewhere I'd consider living in a few years, oh maybe just for holidays.. really for a poss investment for Jan's brother thinking of buying out there and we were the nearest to check it out).. about our age he is engaged and works as a real estate sorta man. Bonkers.... I just love it when that happens and you realise all the things that make a person them when you see them in someone else....bonkers bonkers chicken oriental.

If I ever need to change my name (wasn't me guv) it'll be to Steven Felix...Or Big Cock Minge Head Malloy. One or the other.

Moved house...

My new area...eat shit chavs!

www.upmystreet.co.uk >

Often, many of the people who live in this sort of postcode will be prosperous young professionals living in flats. These are known as type 16 in the ACORN classification and 1.03% of the UK’s population live in this type.

Neighbourhoods fitting this profile are found primarily in Inner London in Westminster, Camden, Islington, Haringey and Hackney as well as in Brighton, Bristol, Glasgow and Edinburgh. Here is an overview of the likely preferences and features of your neighbourhood:


These young people live in urban areas in purpose built and converted flats. This group has the highest levels of people aged 25-29. They are very highly qualified, and are making their way up the career ladder in the professions and managerial roles. They earn high salaries.

40% of people live alone. There are also high numbers sharing larger properties. They are typically renting rather than buying, which reflects the more transient nature of these communities.

They are hard working and as a result make optimum use of their leisure time. They are twice as likely to use services such as ordering their groceries online for home delivery, and the Internet for shopping.

These people are keen readers and have wide interests which include art, music, the theatre and cinema. They also eat out regularly in restaurants and pubs. They really like to travel abroad and will take the full range of holidays including winter sun and snow, weekend breaks and long haul trips.

Given their high incomes, they do invest some of their money in a broad range of investments. They are keen users of credit cards for their purchases, with high monthly spend and correspondingly high credit limits.

This type more closely follows current affairs than any other. Like other urban groups, they will buy a daily paper to read on the way to work and will choose from the Financial Times, The Guardian and Independent. On Sundays they choose the Observer and The Sunday Times.

The Welsh are a bunch of sheep shaggers!!

It's not surprising we welsh can't escape racial stereotypes like this when we have a children's TV show about a family of sheep.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/4872660.stm

Do I really need to start another rant about S4C? Shite.

Reminds me of the competition that used to be in the North Wales Weekly News... "Spot the Dog"..Basically it was "spot the ball", but instead of a ball you had to guess where the sheepdog's nose was (a sheepdog that was herding sheep). The competition was withdrawn in 1997 when an eagle-eyed old timer noticed that in the background of one of the pictures were two young farmers from Llansanan spit roasting a prize winning ram*

*The cameraman unwittingly captured the precise moment when the ram bit down ensuring that the particular farm in question would no longer be passed from generation to generation. Most see the latter aspect as the greatest tragedy although many rejoice in the knowledge that the world was spared from another family of subsidy swallowing smelly bastards.

Everyone likes a drink, nobody likes a drunk!

For a change this isn't about my drunken behaviour...

Did anyone know there was a worldwide problem with drunken elephants?

Well...There seems to be...

How has this been kept quiet from us all this time?

Beware the drunken elephants.
