Quiz created with MemeGen!

Doesn't that just rock? I'm going to do the world such a big favour! People will love me! Finally, someone will love me! Do you know how long I have waited for acceptance? I can't believe the day is near... well, 4 years or so away. WOOT!

Mel loves Duff. She's going to be so upset with me.


Random updates...

A few facts kind of in dot form...


  • *I'm 84 today. I got like 5 e-mails from forums wishing me a happy "84th" birthday. Hambo, where the Hell is yours? Cheap bastard.
  • *I bought a basketball and a skipping rope. Now I'm ready to be one kick ass grandma!
  • *Doctors think I may have arthritis in both my knees. Now that's gotta shit ya at my young age.
  • *Dunno if I should be worried or not, but the guy at the booze shop knows what I get... Maybe he just has a good memory, or maybe I'm there too much. I dunno.
  • *Got some badges. They were supposed to be 1 buck each, but I did a deal and got 36 for 27 dollars. So that's like 75 cents each. What I didn't tell the guy was that I intend on selling them at the markets. HA HA! Sucker!
  • *I won some uber cool awards at a gaming site I frequent. The Grotto, on MSN Gaming Zone, is a chat room I hang in a lot. I never play the game, just be a pain in the ass to a lot of people. Anywho, I won most sarcastic and funniest female last year. This year I picked up a total of 5 titles. Most sarcastic, funniest female, biggest instigator of fights, best tantrum thrown online, and chatter on the most nics. Yeah, I'm like THAT proud right now.
  • *Spaz is a spaz.
  • *My dog is staring at me.

*Dot points wouldn't show up. Maybe blogger is a piece of shit. Maybe I should stop being a cheap lazy bastard and actually pay for a server and domain name and make my own blog. So, my point is, yeah, whatever!

Dick Smith dick head.

So, Melly killed her computer.
Shut up! You know you did!

I tried in vain to fix it, but the mother board was dead, and so was the CPU, and the heat sink was a lump of shit. All in all, it was cheaper to buy a new computer. So I headed down to Brisbane to help her with this task.

We hunted around first; making sure she got the best computer that fell into the budget she had, and finally we found it. A nice PC at Dick Smiths.
I got to use my discount card, goody.

So we're at the cash register, I hand over my card and the guy can't scan it. Then he notices it's missing a number. I dunno why but they decided not to print the 0 at the front of my employee number, so everyone questions my lack of a 6th digit. Well, almost everyone.

This tactful bugger just outright says, "Is it a fake?"
I'm like, wtf? So I tell him, "No. I wouldn't lie about working for Woolworths."
The wanker doesn't even laugh.

He finally puts the card through, not at all believing it's mine, and then Melly pays.
We went over budget, so I used my credit card to make up the extra she didn't have on her (She paid me back of course).
I sign, and then the guy stares at the signature and goes, "That's an interesting signature."
So I roll my eyes, seeing where this fag is going with it, and ask him if he wants to see ID.
He says yes and I hand over my license.

At the time my hair was black, now it's blonde, my natural colour is brown. He stares at the card, then looks at the license, then at me.
"You've dyed your hair."
Shit no! I'm glad he told me that!
Yes I say. He eyes me up and then begrudgingly accepts my card.
What a fucking dick head.

OHMOG x2!!!

Wow! Woolworths is da bomb! You want excitement? Look no further than my very own shit hole place of work.

Not only do we get power outages, fights, and people beating on Ezy banking phones; but we get fires, too!

Like, I know! What The...?

So, the fire alarm goes off, and what do we do? We all stand there going, "WTF?" No one knew if it was a drill or not. Turns out it wasn't. So we had to go around ushering peeps out of the store. Apparently someone set a fire out the back of Big W, or in the parking lot or something, but it was under control pretty damn quick.

Half an hour of waiting, and we were allowed back in. 8 Trolleys of stock was not reclaimed, so I had fun putting it back.

Thais... Fat whale bitch thing, brown nosed the supervisors and got that fun job, too. But she was pissing me off because she kept throwing things in trolleys, damaging stock further, and making more work for me. Finally she takes the trolley of cold stuff back, and I start to return the bread, and a trolley load of stuff for isle 1,2, & 3. In the time it took me to do both trolleys, she hadn't even finished hers. Fat fucker.

Kelly... Let's give Kelly a round of applause, a standing ovation, and the Nobel prize. She boldly remained in the store during the whole to do. Go Kelly. You took one for the team, ensuring the customers' safety and other bull shit like that. Wooh, Kelly! Your bravery makes you my number 1 hero! You're better than the Hoff in my books right now.

Okay... End transmission.

Coke Zero!

I'm no fan of coke. I don't drink the stuff, never have. In fact, I don't drink much in the way of fizzy rubbish. But the latest ad for their new "Coke Zero" product I like. No, wait, I love it!

It's got nothing on Carlton Draught's "Big ad", but it comes a close second in my books. Well, who can beat that ad? I mean, really. It's a friggin' BIG AD! An expensive ad! I just can't believe how big it is!

But back to the topic at hand...

The ad shows creativity, a sense of humour, and it's put together bloody well! I give it 4 and a half thumbs up! The dude who made it deserves one big ass group hug; and should the opportunity arise, I'll be leading the pack.

It's hard to come across ads these days that make you stop what you're doing and rush back to the TV. I remember doing that when I were a wee lass. Ahhh, those were the days. Good times, real good times.

All in all, whoever was responsible for the pure creativity behind it deserves an award. They've realised that ads need to be eye catching, funny, bright, perky, and straight to the point. I mean, what's the point of shoving some boring ad up that doesn't turn heads? It's just a waste of money when you do something like that.

Anywho, I guess I should show you the ad. I love the ending where the guy shouts, "I'm fine! I'M FINE!!!" He he he.
Click here to see it, and tell me you agree... And you will agree with me; because I'll hunt you down and beat you with a stick of salami if you don't.
