linkbucks brought to you by Carls Jr

So 1 month and 13 days ago I was in Wales and had enough money to buy myself an acer laptop, during which time it has been pretty awesome and only failed me twice without good reason, If you're looking for a laptop which can last 8 hours straight while connected to the internet then you might want to have a look at the Acer aspire TimelineX... man, if only i was paid for talking about the computer... brought to you by Carls Jr...

As awesome as it is to get money from people when others click your links... they just don't want to put up with all the bullshit... but Jesus Christ... Maccas really needs to give me some shifts or people need to hire me for photography business otherwise I'm kinda fucked ¬_¬

Flight of the Conchords

Well, it looks like the simpsons really are dead... as much as I love Flight of the Conchords they didn't really do much help for the simpsons... seriously, they got to season nine, made a blatantly obvious apple reference and then killed them selfs and my respect for them... It's not like they're even really trying anymore to pretend to be original...
for example the old episodes had somewhat originality to them
krusty burger = McDonalds
tree house of horror episodes = horror movies
Bart = Dennis the Menace
Chief Wiggum = Edward G. Robinson, see, link
Duff beer = Guinness beer

whereas the new episodes have
"Mapple Computers"
"Mapple Mypods"
"Sprubway"
the starting of season 21 episode 20 is a GREAT BIG KICK IN THE NUTS for simpsons fans and pop haters featuring the song 'tik tok' by a retarded illiterate crack whore called Ke$ha

it's a bit of a short list, but I'm not going to get deeply engaged into it, as I can't really be bothered to try to remember to be honest... but the fact of the manor is that the matt greoning/script writers have decided that the look of the simpsons is much more inportant then the story of the episode... way to sell out you jerks...

I didn't really achieve much today, apart from some how fucking up a completely new Scanpan because the spatula I used melted onto it... how annoying... now there's a great big round plastic-y stain on it... It's a good thing I don't have to pay for it, because I don't have the money for it... even though it's about $60... but still... fuck all money as McDonalds has decided that I'm basically redundant due to the amount of times I get sick... believe me, it's annoying enough that I'm sick that often, I don't need my work deciding that It's often enough for no work >.>

On an up note, If I can raise enough money, Drasern , Em , Carla and I are going on a roadtrip, where there will be camping and joyness, and a zany adventure of sorts... and if it looks like none of the previously said is going to happen THEN I WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN FOR TEH LULZ! ... and make a crappy b-grade movie of it on my phone or something... or at least take some photo's with my camera...

also 1 month since erica and I have been going out... i find that pretty interesting seeing as it really doesn't seem like it's been that long...

Google ad-sence, Nostalgia and 3DTV

 Oh hai guiez, I just sold out... hooray.

Anyway, Today was quite an interesting day, I was on youtube for once and was looking through the 90's stuff that used to be on ABC when I was much younger, I found my childhood, i was literally screaming because of sheer happiness, it's a pity tv shows aren't like they used to be... they were much better then... now everyone's all fussed about their shiny new DVR's and digital HDTV reception and how tv shows should be more focused on what something looks like then what should be on it...
I'm going to be blunt. Digital Television can suck on my balls, I don't care if the reception is 'crystal clear' ... if it means that I can't watch the shows that I want to then it can go to hell for all I care. here's an example... when I had an analogue tv tuner I got the channels ABC, 7, Nine, Ten, SBS and TVS, now with the digital reciever all I get is Nine*, Ten*, 7*, and on rarities SBS* I don't really care at all that the channels have affiliate channels because whats the point of having them when they all play the same bloody things... I miss ABC >.>

On another note, has anyone noticed the 3D-TV hype? because I'd be surprised if you haven't... anyway, the whole 3D-TV thing that all the companies are jumping on board with is a crock of shit... seriously, the glasses don't need batteries to function if they're created not to, if greater union doesn't charge you money for batteries then a stupid tv company shouldn't either. that's why i'm really happy with Nintendo's newish invention the 3DS, which incorporates the new 3D polarity 'technology' with the use of a secondary screen that does away with the need of wearing crappy glasses to see the images... also there's a rumor that ocarina of time's going to be on it in 3D.. which I will be the first in line to receive if it's the last thing I do!

So, um... whoo...

Yup, it happened, I finally found out what the hell was wrong with my desktop... turns out that when a cable is half a millimetre shorter then it's supposed to be, you're going to have issues later on with it... ah well... the computer seems to be not as freez-y... so I'm going to hope that i've fixed the issue, and i'm not going to have issues with it for a while...
SPORE is still freezing randomly... I'm assuming it's because I "installed" it wrong , or something along the likes of that...

Also,  I had the most epic dreams involving slaters (the small bug) in KFC chicken, pornos, black people, edy, trains and carns xD

boy, can i use my imagination, or what :P

No Hostile Life detected as of yet... or any at all really...

So yeah, still playing SPORE... although my computer's decided to have a great big bitch fit and not work correctly (I have a suspicion it's jealous of the shiny new British Acer laptop that I got while I was overseas) Which means that when I advance to a new level it decides 'oh, you seem to be having somewhat of a fun time, here let me help you with that... ERROR!' and in which I promptly reply by going ¬_¬" and glaring at it for about 10 minutes because I have a stupid habit of not saving my game every hour or so... annoyance... ah well...

on another note, my 5 day of trying new foods was pretty interesting today because my drama group from high school decided to have a reunion today at a Thai restaurant, I had for a Starter Satay Chicken which carrots and some sort of white noodley stuff and for the Main Course I had Yellow Curry with beef, which was really great, I quite enjoyed it =D

as for what I'm going to do next week, I've decided that I'm slouching too much and getting lazy, so I'm going to try to do some physical exercise for a week and see how that goes...english acer laptop
Note; this joke took more effort then expected and longer then necessary

Day 3 of blogspottering and still no signs of life...

Well... it's most likely for the best, I talk to myself anyway you see...

So, Yesterday I started playing SPORE... the actual game... not creature creator demo thing...
 It's actually really addictive and a fuck load more then what I thought it would be. It contains features of at least 3 games that I've played before and redesigned them in quite an ingenious manner, it took me about 12 hours to get to the last stage of the game, which i quite liked.

Although I have a feeling that the reason it took me that long was because I was also talking to people on MSN and moving the mouse on my laptop so that it wouldn't go to sleep... i could turn off the sleep setting... but it does come in handy at times...

So far i've been playing SPORE for about 2 days, it's been interesting, and has frozen once... I have no idea why it froze though... t'was quite annoying and i was about to ascend to space and win... more or less haha

yeah, so, if you've never heard of it and have been living in a nice secluded place with no internet and kept your eyes shut and your ears blocked and been screaming LALALALALALALA for the past however many years it's been out and have stumbled apon this blog only to read about this then buy a computer with a CD/DVD/Blu-ray drive, buy SPORE and play it, i guarantee you'll have some sort of interest in it... it's also slightly educational in the fact that it has evolution and timelines in it xD ... but apart from that it's just an ordinarily awesome computer thing...

mmm, have fun with that.. :P

 ... also the game...

16.9.10

So yeah, i have a blog that i actually wish to keep somewhat up to date...

and that my friends, is what i plan to do...
...even if i do have a tendency to make really tiny posts...

So yeah, During the past 2 weeks I've started to do things I wouldn't normally do...

Week 1 (5/09/10 until 11/09/10) was "Be insanely nice to people and not complain about how much nicer the world would be without complete idiots" 

... this wasn't actually as hard as i had imagined it would be... but i would assume that was because during the middle of the week i kinda couldn't go out due to lack of money...

Week 2 (12/09/10 until 18/09/10) is "Try a new food everyday, Extra points if you made that thing yourself" 

It's been quite surprising finding out that things I would normally not eat actually taste pretty good, not as good as i had hoped... and certainly not as filling... but that can be cured by eating more of it xD

I think for Week 3 I'll paint/draw something every day for a week...

15.9.10

I'm pretty sure i used to have a blogspot

because all my details were already on here but everything was deleted for some odd reason o_O

well anyway, Oh hai ther, if you don't know me, then hi, my name is nick, pleased to meet you, on here will hopefully be things relating to other things... and yeah, blogs and expressing myself through words really aren't my strongest trait, but it's a trait nonetheless... well i hope you enjoy this joke i call a 'blog' =)
