Drunken calculations.
Last night, a guy offered me $20 to bash his friend.
“Not worth it”
$50 then.
“Still not worth it”
While I was drunk last night, I did some calculation that it was either a setup, or would cost me more in the long run. I also figured that if I took the money first, I would loose the element of surprise. If I surprised him, I wouldn’t get the money.
Meanwhile, now...

"Not if I see you first"
“See you tommorow.”
“Not if I see you first”.
You’ll see me tommorow regardless if I see you first or not.
So the real meaning of this sentence has to be: “I’m going to stab you’re eyes out tonight while you sleep”.
Poverty and Bums - Blog Action Day
One night, momoney and I were touring Sydney, and we came accross an interesting bum. momoney told him one of Witgenstein’s favourite quotes:
“you can’t shit higher than your arse”
To which the bum replied:
“You can if you lie facing down.”
Gold.

Isn’t anyone concerned that the SMH article (here: http://tinyurl.com/3kyvsy) is slanted in Ebay’s favour, and seems biased? Every statement prefers ebay’s side of the argument.

Ubuntu Locks netbook OS almost as bad as TIVO →
The move to not release the ISO for Ubuntu’s Netbook Remix seems to lock in the operating system to the hardware it is preinstalled to ship with. Although it not as bad as TIVO not reciprocating to the open source community by requiring a digital certificate to install modified software on its hardware. this political move is comparable since it utilises the contributions of the open source...
There should be a law against attractive girls working in chemists. Sure she believes that the imodium is for your housemate.

Online Speed Dating
In the realm of video speed dating, speeddate says is advertising itself as first, but WooMe and crazyblinddate have been around for a while (I wrote about it).
Update: Speeddate has been around the longest.
Question: Does going on a date still exist? Or has it moved to a point where people want to speed up things by online profiles, friends’ recomendations, and video-dating?
If people...

A Children's Story of My Morning
Phraedus woke up one morning and started writing part of his thesis. Frank, Phraedus’s imaginary friend (but don’t tell him that) suggested Phraedus go sit on his balcony and write for a while. So Phraedus did this. He wrote and wrote, and scribbled notes on pages, little reminders and codes to move this here, and write that there. He wrote all morning, sipping cups of tea while he...
