The Only Girl I Ever Loved: A Tale Of Concussion, Stupid Girls and Vampires* – Part 3

January 4, 2010

* But not THAT tale of concussion, stupid girls and vampires – this one predates that one by eight years. Also, it is real. The working title of this story was actually “Shut Up, Stephanie Meyer”. The Conclusion About a month after I became a teenage swinger for about fifteen seconds, Bella had braces put [...]

It’s Not a Cooma

December 17, 2009

As a young thing growing up in Queensland, I never had to explain anything Queenslanderish, because we were all Queenslanders. We all said the word “pool” with about three ‘o’s too many, we all referred to scho(ooo)ol bags as “ports” which we placed in “portracks” outside our classrooms, and none of us had any concept [...]

Standing On The Sidelines, Waving and Grinning

November 10, 2009

I have been single for a long time. My whole life, in fact. A combination of coming out of the closet late, embarking on a career that seriously hindered my ability to date (a career that is thankfully over), and just being a shy, nervous twit are all contributing factors to this. I bring up my [...]

It Puts iRose in Every Cheek

September 28, 2009

As I hurtle frighteningly closer to my 29th birthday, I sometimes fear that I may be getting “old”. I don’t know at what point (if there is one) a person suddenly falls out of touch with the youth demographic and becomes a doddering old twit, but it’s probably coming. And the worst part is I [...]

Beware Canadians Bearing Gifts

August 30, 2009

I play a lot of videogames. I would call myself a gamer. I would even, at a pinch, describe myself as a fairly competent gamer. I have enough basic skill to be able to pick up any new game I come across fairly quickly. I am proud of my abilities in this arena. At least [...]

McErection

July 31, 2009

Twice now, I have been served my McDonalds drive-thru coffee by the most ridiculously attractive man I have ever seen in a poxy brown sun-visor. For a lot of people, this would be a good thing. A good perve is considered, by the greater population, to be wonderful. Women can laze away hours staring at [...]

Testosterone/Testosteroff

July 18, 2009

I’m a simple man, with simple machinations: I am a total sucker for any guilt-based leverage, and I’m far too easily bought. That’s really all there is to me.  So, last week, when The Stag discovered that I did not know how to change the oil in my car and, more importantly, had no desire to learn, he [...]

Technical Blog Entry!

July 9, 2009

I was watching some boxing the other day… …oh, I can’t back that up. If you have ever met me, you would never believe that sentence anyway. And even if you haven’t met me; I should probably confess now before you mistake me for a boxing fan and try and ask me a question about [...]
