October 2003 Archives

I am still ill, but the fires of my hatred of mediocrity have been rekindled and have given me the strength of ten men. Also I had a pint of well known medicine Guinness.

New law: If you're going to watch a film and you aren't recording a DVD commentary, SHUT YOUR FUCKING YAP HOLE. If you feel the need to leave and have a 45 minute phone conversation instead, JUST FUCK OFF. Don't return and insist on having the entire plot recounted to you while you're missing even more of it. If you have seen the film before, DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO POINT OUT THAT YOU'VE MANAGED TO REMEMBER THAT A GOOD BIT IS COMING UP OR THAT CHARACTER X GETS SHOT IN A BIT OR "SEE THAT GUN, REMEMBER THAT IT'LL BE USED LATER" LIKE I'M A MENTALLY DISABLED CHILD. If a bit of the film is slightly better than "so shit you want to slit your wrists", do not feel the need to say "Genius!". If the film contains some pictures and sounds, do not feel the need to say "Genius!". If you're watching the fucking 'comedy bits' in soap operas, do not feel the need to say "Genius!". Do not feel the need to "test your knowledge" and ruin any possible atmosphere by asking if thing X happens at the end of the episode/film. Don't tell me that if you've seen something enough you often say the lines before the actors, IT IS IN NO WAY CHARMING OR QUIRKY.

STOP USING TELEVISION AS WALLPAPER, YOU FUCKING TERRIBLE EVIL CUNTS, YOU ARE MAKING JESUS CRY AND ONE DAY I WILL SNAP AND CUT YOU WITH SCISSORS.
Discovery missing from internetsdairy's entry about last night:

-Someone patented an idea for aircraft carriers made from a material that is a mixture of wood pulp and ice called pykrete.

A google reveals this fantastic story:

"Good," said Mountbatten as he bounded up the stairs. "That's exactly where I want him to be." Mountbatten entered the steaming bathroom to find Churchill in the tub. It was generally not a wise thing to interrupt Sir Winston in his bathtub.

"I have," Mountbatten explained, "a block of a new material that I would like to put in your bath."

Mountbatten opened his parcel and dropped its contents between the Prime Minister's bare legs in the water. It was a chunk of ice.
