Playstation 3 (blog filler because I plan to keep this blog relatively active)

So three days ago I got a call from a kid about an advert I put up on gumtree a while ago, I was advertising a trade of my 60gb xbox 360 (the non-slim version) for either $250 or a fat 60gb ps3.



Sounds kinda ridiculous, right?


For about 3 months I didn't get anyone contacting me about buying it... I got a few people emailing me because they were interested in buying it for some ridiculous price like $40 and such and I decided that I'd most likely be better off trading it into EB or something like that, so I told them that I'd be sticking by my offer...


After I had almost completely forgotten about the advert I put up I get a phone call from a person who sounds like he's about 35 asking if I've still got my xbox that I was advertising... I tell him yes and asked him if he was interested in buying it, he replied with "You mentioned that you were willing to trade for a PS3 console" I couldn't believe what I had just heard, I quickly reply with "Yeah, the fat 60gb model?", He replies with "Nah, I've got a 160gb slim" I think to myself "Is this guy serious? He wants to trade his 160gb playstation slim... one he can sell for about $400... for my crappy 3 year old 60gb xbox 360? Is he out of his mind? this has to be a joke..."


I tell him "Yeah, that sounds good, when are you free and where do you want to do the trade?" 
He replies straight away with "I can't really do anything for a few days, but how does saturday sound?"
I reply with "Yeah, that should be fine"



then we finish up the conversation...


About an hour later he calls me up again and says "Are you able to do the trade tomorrow?
Seeing as I've finished tafe and had nothing better to do I told him that I was free and willing to do it (because, hey, relatively free playstation 3, right?)


The day after we make the trade, It was pretty awesome and now I don't have to worry about paying to play online because the PSN is absolutely free to play on... which is good because I have no money to spend willy nilly...

TL;DR / TS;DR

I now have a Playstation 3 instead of an xbox 360

New Website Update

For a while it was looking very bland and dead because I have been concentrating on my tafe work so that I can get into university, but now that tafe is almost over I will begin to have a lot more time on my hands which I shall try to use constructively on the site and other things.

and now back to the better, and more complete one

Save the internet as we know it!

SIGN EVERY FUCKING PETITION YOU SEE INVOLVING THE AMERICAN CENSORSHIP OF THE INTERNET

Otherwise you can kiss everything you know and love goodbye!

We already know that completely retarded things can go through the US senate, DON'T LET THIS ONE THROUGH!

If you trip, you might Tumblr

Y'know what I don't get at all... I don't understand how there's all this hate going on about copyright and all that shit, and yet everyone seems to love tumblr.

tumblr basically exists solely to post and repost copyrighted material, something like 75% of the things I've seen on tumblr are things I've seen on the chan sites or reddit first...

Tumblr is supposed to be a blogging website, but it's basically just like going through a stamp book where people have decided to lick the stamps and press their books against the already licked stamp to create a malformed beast of something they'd like their 'fans' to see... although, chances are, everyone's already seen it already...

Actually, I've got a better analogy, you know people with alzheimer's, it's like talking to someone that has that, they just keep going on about the same things everyone already knows...
"You know what I like, Proons, I have a picture of a proon here, why don't you look at it"
"Oh look, a picture of a proon, I like proons, I think i'll share this picture I found of a proon"
etc. etc. kinda like twitter really... but with more gifs and hipsters... and people with alzheimer's by the looks of things...

Oh, and here, it's dangerous outside, have a picture of some prunes...

By the way, If you're wondering, I do have a tumblr 'blog'... but I don't really use it that much... or at all really...

So... the statistics are in..

And apparently 68% of the people who come and read my blog (since the 16th of last month)... don't actually read my blog... they kinda just open it and are like... oh, ok then... fuck this...

Alright, So... What would you like me to write about that would make you interested enough for you to stay on here for more than 30 seconds?

And for the people who would like those statistics in a nice pie chart I've taken the liberty of making one at home...

To the people who take their time to actually read my stuff, thank you, I hope I keep you rather entertained.

A Choice

You are given a box, the instructions are as follows;
Push the button and instantly receive $200,000 or
Don't Push the button and receive nothing except for the personal satisfaction of having self restraint,
BUT, if you push the button; someone, somewhere dies, the person could be anyone, anywhere.

Would you do it?

Time for a new post

So, I recently decided that I'd start to use my tablet again on my main tower computer because I was directed towards a (what I'm pretty sure it new) drawing site from reddit... yes, I know... reddit is a hole, and steals memes and kills them, but whatever, Doodle or die is actually a really well crafted page/site and the people that come up with things are even more delightful, it's rather hilarious watching people define what you've drawn and see other people draw what the person before them has described... but then you also have trolls... although the trolls seem to be slightly more intelligible than your regular trolls... excusing the ones that just scribble which ... well... yeah...

Anyway, back to what I was saying, I started to use my tablet again and found out that it's almost not working any more because the wire that connects it to the computer is slightly fucked, which is rather annoying because that tablet set me back around $300 if I remember correctly... oh well, it lasted a decent enough time period (5 years) which is actually a little longer than i've had this computer which is pretty cool...

And now for an example of Doodle or Die
