Sometimes I think it's just me.

Month February 2015

On Non-Awakenings

[WTF] Mental note: When attempting to induce consciousness round about 11AM on one of those days using levels of caffeine that would give a rhino double vision via the medium of Vietnamese coffee, take special care when reaching into the fridge not to mix up the tubes of condensed milk and garlic paste.

On Inappropriate Acronyms

[UPS Guy] Just sign there, sir.

[WTF] Does it never bother you that you deliver delicate packages for a company most easily pronounced as “oops”?

On Overly Polite Notices

[Sign in Cafe] “This Is A Self-Clearing Area”

[WTF] Self clearing? It clears itself? Not with staff, or robots or anything like that? Very cool, I wonder how they do it. I’ll just leave all these dirty plates right here then, a system like that needs to be encouraged.

On Sudden Consumerism

[News] Millions of Android devices infected with malware encouraging users to needlessly spend money

[WTF] uh… the Google Play store? The Google ad network?

On Ecuadorian Exile

[Julian Assange] [Sweden has] “… shameful legal practice – indefinite detention without charge.”

[WTF] … says the man who’s voluntarily stayed inside the same building at somebody else’s cost for over two years despite lots of people asking him to come out.

On Inevitability

[WTF] Bought a Dell B1165nfw printer. It’s a fast laser, got a document scanner with a sheet feeder, inbuilt fax, WiFi, Airprint, and photocopier.

[Bloke] Really? Sounds great. What does the “nfw” bit mean?

[WTF] Never fucking works.

On Healthy Living

[WTF] … so I’ve been on the rowing machine for an hour every couple of days ages now.

[Bloke] Really? You must be built like a brick sh*thouse!

[WTF] You mean you think I’ve seen better decades, I’m suffering from damp in the lower courses and tend to crumble around the edges? Thanks.
