frat parties just ain’t what they used to be.
God, we must have been the dullest college/university types ever growing up. You know, with dedicating the entire first week of school–or sometimes longer–to drinking, and the occasional initiation prank/hazing. Oh and let’s not forget the ACDC you could hear from halfway up the hall. That’s nothing these days. Alcohol … Read the rest

Why I should probably give up on Simply Hired.
Shortly after I lost my job at Dell, I jumped on to every job advertising bandwagon going. Canada’s Job Bank. Indeed. Eluta. Hell, even Kijiji. They used to land me quite a few halfway decent interviews. In recent months, though, at least some of them have gone quite down-hill. … Read the rest

This month’s Facebook cop: your local judge.
I’m still catching up on mockery from September. It’s what happens when life tosses me a curve, followed by a fastball, followed closely by a change-up. But, that having been said, I’m not sure if Paula Asher or the judge in her DUI case is the bigger moron. Yes, driving … Read the rest

Smile. You’re on rented camera.
Bet you didn’t know you were gambling with your privacy when you went and bought you a rent-to-own computer, did you? Neither did quite a few people who rented from 7 companies who’ve been smacked down for including software that enabled the companies to take pictures of the would-be owners. … Read the rest

Hey random guy I don’t know, want some chocolate? … Hey wait–come back!
I get some of the strangest people when I decide to actually go somewhere. There’s the old guys at the Mcdonalds, with an opinion on just about everything–and a few things that didn’t even exist yet. There’s the random old lady on the bus, absolutely convinced that May … Read the rest

Good things–like gobs of money–come in threes.
Some folks have all the luck. Hege Jeanette Oksnes has that, and the dollars–well, crowns–to go with it. the 29-year-old good luck charm won Norway’s national lottory. So did her father. And so did her brother, just a few weeks ago. The timing? For all 3 wins, Oksnes was … Read the rest

And Canada’s government ups the creap factor. thanks, gov.
email is awesome. I practically live on email. that and RSS–which is where I find most of the mockery. So if someone from the government of canada wanted to give me an idea what their department was up to, and decided to do it through email, I wouldn’t complain. In … Read the rest

That’s one sky high divorce.
Rebecca Gibbs didn’t just want her marriage to be over. Oh no sir, she’s decided to take the out of sight, out of mind approach. Or is that, out of atmosphere, out of mind. The relationship having already taken off at about warp 7, she decided her wedding ring should … Read the rest

texting while driving goes from illegal, to confusing and illegal, in California.
Texting while driving is one of those things I’ve ranted on here about before. Namely, yes you’re probably stupid for doing it, but not as stupid as the ones making it illegal. Mostly, because you can’t actually legislate common sense. but, also, because really, the idiots more likely to … Read the rest

In which my girlfriend, which I do have, tries to walk off with my guidedog. Which I don’t have.
People say the most absolutely randomest of things. Usually at the most oddly weird of times. For anyone who actually knows us, May has a guidedog. Had one for years. Long before she’s met me. I’ve never had one. Haven’t figured I wanted/needed one. what I do has worked since, … Read the rest
