I was in a chat room, cause I have no life, and someone was like "Hey let's go see the new transformers in 3D!" and I said "I don't think it is in 3D" And they come back with "Err, yes it is, it's totally in 3D. You stoopid". So I said "Ok then..well here in Australia it's not.." and they were like "Pfft, you're lame then"
Then I realize tonight I remember reading an article were Michael Bay said how much he hates 3D and that Transformers 2 will not be following the trend of making everything 3D.
This is why I need a time machine. Not to kill hitler or to win the lottery. Just to win petty little arguments with people. I would go back to all those situations were you walk away from something and come up with an awesome comeback that woulda been perfect two minutes earlier, or just refute claims with facts and evidence at hand to put them in their place. Either that or just go back and punch them in the neck and say "No, you're stupid, and you were wrong".
I can live with the holocaust and not being a millionaire so long as I had my minor little ego boosting wins every day.
Yes, I'm a small and petty man.
I've had a ringing in my ear for ages. I can only hear at this late hour of night when the world around me is being super quiet. I don't wanna be one of those people that goes to the doctor to complain about something lame like this. They always look at you like you're you're a hypochondriac pussy. |

I fucking love mash-ups. I don't know why. I guess cause they're corny and cheesey, and I like how they're honest about their sources in a totally obvious 'pointing & winking' way instead of some obscure tiny little sample in a legitamate electronica song.
So here's my review of The Muppet Mash Up Album.
1.The Muppet Strut (The Muppet Show Theme vs The Stray Cats)
It's just too confusing and not terribly catchy. It's just like listening to two songs at the same time. Meh.
2.Jam On Sesame Street (Sesame Street Theme vs Newcleus)
Fun stuff. You can't go wrong with the old sesame street them song added to somethin. Maybe a little long though.
3.Scooter And The Computer Worms (Scooter vs L Bit)
Ehh, sounds like a normal electronic sampled song. But, at least by the time you're annoyed with the canned laughter repeating, it's over.
4.Pinball Number Count (ATOM's Math Problem Mix)
Again, not so much a remix as a straight electronic song with sme Kitsch value. 7 minutes long though, I mean, really? I can take a dump in shorter time than that.
5.I'm Happy (India from Sesame Street vs Edwinn Starr vs Big Bird, Snuffy and Prarie Dawn vs Lou Rawls, Animal and Floyd vs John Bonham vs Baby Bear)
This is great. I may be biased cause it's got one of my favourite songs from sesame street, the little black girls singing, clapping and stomping making a great catchy little song, with a famous beat works oh so well. Crminally short though. Let that groove ride man, let it ride.
6.Queen Latifah's Rascally Little O (Queen Latifah, Prarie Dawn and Telly vs The Little Rascals Theme)
This one works well, but the levels of each element are wrong. The singing should be louder. But I boogied, and anything that gets me boppin gets a thumbs up.
7.Ladybug's Picnic
Straight cover. I recommend The Dead Hensons for a better version.
8.Five Song (Song of Five) (McSleazy Remix)
Just a remix of counting. Meh.
9.Pinball Number Count (ATOM's Math Problem Mix)
It starts off strangely, but as the famous pinball song creeps in you start getting it.
It's pretty odd..I think I like it.
10.Spinning Rubber Sing Thing (Big Bird vs Ernie vs The Shaggs vs Cale & Eno)
I have a soft spot for Big Bird..I just wanna hug him, so that makes this song enjoyble enough. It is weird hearing him, and 'auto tuner' at the same time.
A good mash up will have two songs melded seamlessly together and you love how well they work together. In fact I've listened to Go Home Productions of 'crazy little fool'- a mash up of The Beatles' 'The fool on the hill' and Queen's 'Crazy little thing called love' and to this day if I hear one or the other, I can it's counterpart perfectly slotted in with it.
But anyways, some of these songs here, just aren't like that at all.
My criteria for getting an album is it has to have at least 3 songs on it, I like. There are exceptions to this rule if the songs are very good, maybe two, rarely one, but I did buy a Young MC album just for 'Bust A Move', but that was before I got into pirating stuff on the net. But for an album genereally three good songs is enough for me to say I like the band.
This mash up probly just scrapes in on my criteria.
5 out of 10. |

So I went to the medical center and after waiting two hours, because I'm far too patient and meek, it turns out I have a chest infection. Anti-biotics are the order of the day. One of the receptionist chicks looked like the chick from Twilight, but she had glasses. The other shorter receptionist was friendlier and she had a higher pitched cute voice. There was a little asian baby that was screaming his head off. I think they were jabbing him with a needle, but the whole time I was thinking "This place must do afterbirth abortions" but was too chicken to say it to the hot black chick sittin next to me. Oh and the doc also recommended a ventolin inhaler for my wheezyness. I didn't know you don't have to have asthma to have a puffer. I also didn't know it's a prescription thing. They're a dickens of a thing to use. I always wondered what it was like to use. I feel better already.
The medical center has this policy where you have to pay 60 bucks the first time, but after that, it's free. 30 buck refund from medicare, which paid for the medication, but they gave me cash. When did that change? I remember it being a check in the mail. Minimum fuss is always a winner.
So I get home and switch on Hal* and do my usual checklist of things and as twitter is becoming my first port of call with firefox, I managed to post just before my monitor died. Screen goes black and I get the no signal input message, which means it's got power, so it's my computer's fault. I wanted to check to see if it was my monitor not recieving so I plugged it into my parents' computer. It worked fine. I don't know why but I tried my parent's monitor [my old one] at my pc, and it worked. Everything was fine. So I grabbed my 19 incher again and brought it back. It didn't work. So after much swapping around , I don't even know how I got to the point that, neither monitor worked on either computer. I was fucked. My plan B wasn't even working.
So I decided to open my computer and give it a clean out. I figured maybe there was dust buggering something up on the chips and stuff.
Well, turns out the front end of it, the whole intake part on the front, was completely covered in dust. I grabbed it all with my hand it was that thick. There was a thin layer on the board thing where the monitor plug is located. Apologies to computer technicians regarding my atrocious naming of computer bits.
Anyway, turns out I totally diagnosed it correctly and it's fixed. Does explain why it's been running weird lately. It maes a totally different grinding noise when it's thinking now. And to top things off, Mum fixed theirs by pressing both buttons on it to start it. Hooray!
This chick on Good News Week is cute. I really should pay attention to the names of people, who I don't know, are. She looks familiar. I have a thing for comedian chicks. I don't know why witty girls are such a turn on for me.
And lastly, I have big hair at the moment..and you know what? I think I like it.
*yeah, I realise naming my computer Hal is just asking for problems.

I am up at 4:30 am, cause I went to sleep at about 8:30 tonight, and am incapable of sleeping well at night. Which is a crying shame because I am quite a fan of my sleeping addiction. Especially in this cold weather. But sure enough, I got fidgety, rolling around and started coughing and the wheeze I can hear as I breathed was distracting to say the least.
So I made a sandwich and watched some stand up. Feels like I should be in my parent's basement to make the stereotype fully complete.
Speaking of stand up, I saw some on youtube by a guy I used to talk to on msn, from a forum we both frequented. I don't really talk to dudes anymore on msn. I have like, two. Anyway, his set was so depressingly unfunny I could only watch the first couple minutes or so. I see a lot of people around who do the "hey, I can do that stand up thing" and probly shouldn't. Sometimes I think I'm funny and could probly write a tight five, but I have the ability to say no, and realise it'd be terrible. I am far too shy to be on a stage alone and try to make people laugh. No, I won't link you it, cause I like you and want to spare you from it. He's this hefty guy with one of them big unkept beards and open button shirt..the kind you see at supanova. I know I'm no prize chicken myself, but I have shame. Those people don't.
I just noticed I was swaying myself from side to side in my chair and was puting myself to sleep. Think I might try to catch some more Zs.
Smell ya later ElJay. |

I notice the same actors appearing in multiple ads.
For example, Tall Jan is now in the little Bills ad. That's fair enough. They need a tall chick to make the little Bill seem even smaller in the passenger seat.
My favourite is the cute chick in the red rooster ads. She's also number three[?] chick in that Listerine ad. She's cute. I hope she ends up in a tv show.
I also spotted smug 'flippant about zebra crossings' guy from the 'speeding, no one thinks big of you ad' is the violent ice taker who throws the bin at the window. That's two government ads. What a cocksucker.
I don't know why I have a thing for Millie the iSelect chick. She has crazy eyes. She does the advertorials on the morning show, that's how I know her name is Millie, but get this..that's not even her real name. Her real name is Camilla Davis. I mean, wtf? How is that even a character?

Ok, I love triple J to death, have listened to it since I was a kid, have listened to so-called great radio stations from the U.S. and triple j beats them by far, but there are certain people on it that shit me so much.
#1 Richard Kingsmill. He's one of the musical directors and he just loves being on the radio. No, pick one or the other. It's like when eddie mcguire was ceo and host on nine. His voice just really annoys me. It should be soothing, but it's has this weird grating effect on my ears. He's one of those "what were they thinking?" kind of people. He was just bitching about Audioslave. Didn't they come first in a hottest 100? It's one thing for a radio host to say "they were shit" like scott dooley does, but kingsmill is responsible for what they fucken play. For him to say "Ugh, they were stupid" is not on. I mean, ripping into Tom Morello for not being experimental in audioslave, but not saying shit about chris cornell making a pop song? What a fucking douche.
#2 Sam Simmons. He's so unfunny, it feels like the only reason he's on is cause he's the son of someone important. he was a raw comedy loser. Did he even make the finals? Now I know one of the tom and alex guys was a raw comedy finalist but didn't win, but they're a duo and have on air chemistry and can keep a shift goin and stuff. They're not soley relying on the "I'm a whacky weird comedic kinda guy" kinda schtick. Sam simmons does, and I will admit, he may have made me laugh , but that's like 1% of anything he's ever said. Repeating 'hello' is not funny. And the mighty boosh have claimed the absurd random thing. If you do it, you just come as a poor imitation, and I don't particularly find them all that amusing anyway, so it's like buying a knock off hang ten shirt.
#3 Robbie Buck. Luckily he's on the breakfast show, so I rarely hear him. He's so smarmy and condascending to everyone. You get the feeling he's that annoying little shit that dobs people in for having fun. I have never heard anything about him that has made me think "Oh wow, he's seems really cool for that". He's just so dickish, in every way.
There's probly someone else I'm not remembering, but these are the main offenders.
How is it these fucktards have generous airtime, but Craig Shuffton doesn't have more, and they don't keep genuinely entertaining comedians that have hosted like Dave Callen, and the absolutely amazing teaming of Ross Noble and Terri Psiakis. That was an awesome summer fill in show, that I'm sure would have rated better than any regular shift. |

The other day, in that weird half dream state, I realised I was waking up and was still hearing what was going on in my dream.
I could hear the classic Bananarama son 'Venus', with the lyrics all about jesus. I'm not sure why.
I wrote some it down with the intention of filling it out further, It went ..a little bit...like this...
Once upon a Bethlahem,
a baby was born with fame,
Even three wise men were there
and Jesus was his name.
He's got it,
Yeah baby he's got it.
I'm your jesus, I'm your Sire,
I'm your messiah.
Born in the year zero,
To many he was their hero,
He dissapeared for most of his life
And no one's sure if he had a wife..
He's got it,
Yeah baby he's got it.
I'm your jesus, I'm your sire,
Your messiah.
He told them he's the son of god
The romans didn't give a sod,
when hearing this confronting news,
it really pissed off the jews.
[Chorus]
[keytar solo]
that's all I got.. I can't think of way to write the rest.
I changed the versus, and there's only like two different versus in the song. |

Today my Dad got me a touchtone phone from the..umm, iunno what you call them in english.. Brik-a-brak markets? Trash and treasure swap meet? My Dad loves em. Poor mum. Getting dragged along to that shit first crack of dawn after not being able to sleep that night. Happy Mothers Day! My father is the only morning person in the family. So whenever we had to go somewhere early he would be up, smiling and us, looking haggard, would just curse him. I could probly kill someone in the morning.
But anyway, yeah, I've always wanted a touch tone phone. Like a rotary phone's shape but without the annoying spinning thing. Fuck I hated that as a kid. Like Louie CK said "This guy has too many zeros in his number, Fuck Him". I'm misquoting but it's very true. Buttons all the way.
I love the shape of the reciever. It's a lovely design. You can hold it with your shoulder, you can pick it up and walk around with it like jerry sienfeld and I might even paint it red to make it look more Batman-ey.
Unfortunately now the old phone line socket thing doesn't work as they've come in and changed it. We got filters and adapters for the phone and router cables. I need an adapter for the prong socket thing to get it to work here in my room. Actually, I'm gonna see if the dick smith site has that shit. Toodles.
Ha! It's gonna three times what the phone cost for an RJ12 adaptor and dual plug. |

My lungs are full of shit and I can't sleep as a result. I have this wheeze. I can hear it when I breathe in deep. I've been hocking up phlegmy shit for about an hour and a half. I gotta get it out. I was lying in bed trying to sleep and it felt like my lungs couldn't take in enough air. I sit up and I can breathe at least. I'm so fucken sleepy. Somebody give me somethin to knock me out. I don't mean sleeping pills, I mean more like an animal tranquilizer like they use in blow pipes. Just jab the little furry dart in my arse and kiss me goodnight.
I guess it's the dust in my room. I dunno why it's so dusty here. |

God the Logies were awkward and painful to watch. Moreso than usual. I was watching it with my parents and just ripping into it.
When Bill Collins got his hall of famer, I said he looked like a yip yip alien with his turkey neck flapping around, and demonstrated by pulling my shirt over my head and moving the neck hole like the mouth. Mum cracked up and made her cry with laughter. Ten seconds later she goes "do it again!"
But yeah, unventful awards show was uneventful. Gretel can fuck off into obscurity, and this cements her as a terribly, uncharismatic tv host. I can't believe she used to be a comedy writer cause she's about as funny as heart failure.
God Ruby Rose is so fucken hot though. I wanna do naughty things to her. Illegal things...hard. I wish we had cable. |

Beauty and the Geek finale tonight and I already know who wins. D:
Speaking of tv, I gotta say I was really cynical at first about Lawrence Leung's Choose Your Own Adventure. I would watch the first bits of an episode and scoff at how awkward it was but by the end I was chuckling and and genuinely enjoying it. It's rather charming and nicely executed. Of course, as usual, by the time I start really getting into a series, it finishes.
I was really getting into Dexter and the series was finished up. Oh well. next time.
I miss Californication. Series two wasn't as good as series one, which is fiting cause it's so steeped in music, it's like "the difficult second album, that doesn't live up to the first release".
Yeah, my life is so dull and uninteresting, tv is about the only thing I can talk about.
Been trying to sort out my sleeping again. Sporadic patterns, where I go to to bed at odd hours and wake up not entirely sure what day it is. I'm like Rip Van winkle..y'now, vanilla ice's dad. But this could be the day I stick it out and stay up all day. I wanna get some drawing done. My poor neglected sketch book has sad little doodles here and there. It's been open to the same page for a while now. Thin layer of dust on it stares back at me. Mocking me.
I wanna draw an obscure comic character. I dunno why. Just somethin really cheesy. Like, for example, there's a character I have in mind but I don't know his name. He's got a yellow and red costume with a bit of green, I think. Full face mask, Cape, I think he's DC. I just have this vague image of him. I think he's the dude with that chick with the helmet. She's got like a blue body suit, with this metal bustier thing. Her helmet's got horns. yellow and red too.. I dunno. This is a terrible description.
Flash Gordon just came on. Maybe I should draw him?
I'm gonna go annoy/freak out kids in habbo hotel now. Toodle pip muthafuckerz. |

How is there not an RSS Lj feed for fmylife.com?
Someone with a paid account should rectify this henious atrocity by making one by entering 'http:www.fmylife.com' at the bottom of this page. :D
To help you decide if you should or not, here's some examples.
"Today, I was getting ready for bed, when I decided to watch some porno on the computer. Suddenly someone from my messenger list says, "You might want to turn off the 'What You're Listening To' option if you're watching porn." I snapped and exited the porn. 63 people saw. FML"
"Today, I had an interview for a job in a professor's lab. He seemed like a really nice, grandfatherly old guy. We got up to go take a look around the lab, and he held out his arms really wide to me... so I went in for a hug. Turns out he was just gesturing for me to go through the door first. FML"
"Today, I was waiting for the train. It arrived, I got on and the woman behind me stepped on the back of my shoe. My shoe came flying off and landed in the gutter between the train and the platform. The doors closed, the train pulled away. FML"
"Today, I got a email from my boss. He said he was going to have to let me go for missing so much work over the last week. I was laid off two months ago. I don't know what is more depressing, getting fired from a job twice or the fact it took two months for them to notice I wasn't there anymore. FML"
"Today, I was hanging out with some disabled people at the day-centre where I work. We had the music blasting and were laughing and dancing around. My boss took me aside and said that it wasn't really appropriate for me to mock the clients by imitating their dancing. That's just how I dance. FML"

I think I want to be smacked with a riding crop by Julie Bishop and told I'm a bad boy. There I said it!!
She's got the 'Avril effect'. For those who don't know what the Avril effect is, it's something I named, that is- when you can't stand someone and they shit you off somethin severe, but if they said "ok, let's fuck" you would say yes. Named after Avril Lavigne. I woulda thought it was pretty self explanatory really, why'd you make me explain it? Sarah palin is another example. You would rather kill yourself to have to sit next to them at a dinner party, and have to talk to them, but would happily murder someone for their sweet poontang.
Anyway, there's something about Julie Bishop that qualifies her for Avril status. Call me a freak, call me a weirdo, I dont care. It's on the public record now.
It would so be kinky rp with her, for sure. And let's be honset, she looks like she'd totally be down for that.
I was gonna add stuff about me being a bill that needs to be accommodated in the lower house and passed, with talk of tight margins of approval ratings, and the like, but that would be cheap and tawdry, so I won't.
Watching her go toe to toe with David Marr on Q&A tonight, at one point they were sparing with facetious banter and arguments and they turned to each other and sorta tensed up and I think she even grabbed his arm, like one of them was gonna say "are you as turned on as I am right now?" and they would violently kiss. Maybe it was just me. Maybe that's just what I woulda said if I was in his position.
So, to summarize, sweet lovin for Minister for sport and youth affairs, Kate Ellis, but nasty dom-sub, riding crops, knee high boots, corsets and being tied up with Julie Bishop. |

Been working on my Doctor Doom helmet lately.
I've been trying to think of a clasping system for it and I've had to alter or scrap completely everything I've come up with so far. Gotta buy more welding wire to fix up the face still. Gonna have to look inside couches and stuff to pay for it. Making bits and pieces out of sheet metal, here and there. No real descernible progress really. Just slowly chipping away at it to not spend so much time on the internet and to keep my sanity.. somewhat. Trying to distract myself from everything. It doesn't really work.
It's no fun when the world goes to shit and you got nothin good goin on.
