So why the crap am *I* a node? I’m boring. »

I don’t know about anyone else… but I’ve been online since I was a preteen (early 90s), and while from moment to moment there are definitely things I keep private (direct message worthy, if you will), it seems strange that the entire world wouldn’t or shouldn’t know exactly what I’m doing from moment to moment. [...]

Somebody explain to me… »

How in the hell is Second Life fun? Shitty lagtastic chat room, if you ask me. I am completely incapable of understanding this phenomenon. I’ve downloaded it like… three times in my life, so far. I had beta, once upon a time. It was retarded then, and it’s probably even more retarded now… Am I [...]

Ugh! »

Ten annoyances for today: honk honk honk honk honk honk honk honk honk honk See, I live off of a pretty busy road. Highway, even. My apartment (and therefore everything in between) vibrates quite a bit when trucks barrel through the neighbourhood. The idiot with the ricemobile that parks in the lot out my window [...]

Post or Die! »

I’m joing dis NaBloPoMo thing, you see. Which means that during the month of November, I must post every day, or commit seppuku. And I suppose lazy-ass del.icio.us links don’t even count, eh. Well, this here is the post for November 1st. In which I give you a list of ten things that have already [...]

Maybe I’m old-fashioned »

I don’t think that the comment box is the place for conversations. Conversations belong in e-mail, on e-mail lists, or on forums. Maybe that’s just me. But the format just doesn’t really… work… properly. Bleh. I hardly ever check back to old posts to see if anyone has replied. How good do you think my [...]

I’ve been a nerd for a very long time »

Seeing so many (er, well… okay — just two) interweb anniversaries this week makes me wish I knew when the hell I first started doing all of this nonsense. I didn’t sign up for Blogger until February 2000, but I was posting weblog entries by hand sometime in the fall of 1999. I wish those [...]

Angst + Shirking Responsibility = Art »

Wow! Doing taxes is so much fun! Mhm. And I’m so glad that Sean keeps such impeccable records for Cyanotic. I think I give up for this weekend. Gotta save some of this for later, because I just love it so so much! On the bright side, I only have to file taxes in one [...]

Fair Warning »

Or it would be, if only Sean paid any attention to anything I post online. Next chance I get, the Beetlejuice ringtone on our phone is so being replaced by “Yakety Sax”. No one knows the joy that it brings to me. Maybe I’m just slightly tipsy. Imma gonna get offa the Internets, now. Imagine [...]

Yay! I love utility companies! »

Peoples Energy, I shake my fist at you. $16.24 activation charge? For what? To change the information on the already existing, already working account? Don’t you think that if you are going to charge $16.24 for this service that you should make some effort to at least get that information right? Who is Dean Payne? [...]

How to youse basic alchemy. »

It warms my heart to see so many people finding my website by searching for “Kevin Trudeau is an idiot” and “Kevin Trudeau is a dick” and “Kevin Trudeau the crackpot”. You fuckwits looking for information on getting nautical star tattoos, though. You can fuck right off. Here is some information: tu es stultior quam [...]
