Feeling shite and more

Hi There…


Today kind of sucks for me..

Its kind of awkwardly hot… and windy (hay fever)… and I feel like shite … I’m considering being a wanker… and going straight edge… Because I’m sick of feeling like a scotch filled ashtray.

At least I can wear crazy clothing and indie glasses - a la this guy



But probably not…

Went for a few beers last night at rooftop bar.. .wasn’t too impressed with a plastic pint glass of Stella costing $9.5… but what can you expect… it’s a bar on a roof…. The view was nice and it wasn’t too cold… until it got to about 9 o’clock… then they bought the heaters out…..

Tried the new McDonalds Angus Beef burger… and the verdict as I would put it… average..

Yeah It was a gourmet bun, and the onion was red but the lettuce was brown, the meat was a little dry and the cheese was the same shit they use for the cheeseburgers… Plastic.
And to pay 7.95 for a burger... give me a burrito any day.

Lucky I don’t eat Mickey Ds too often.



I think I am still suffering the repercussions from last week’s boat ride, which was ‘the boat that rocked.’

Here’s a review of a great gig set up by my second Family (Carnation) let’s hope they do more like this.

http://www.fasterlouder.com.au/reviews/events/20069/Titanic--The-Hovercrafts-Carnation-The-Good-China--A-boat-on-the-Yarra-Melbourne-290809.htm"

The boat was packed, and after handing out 40 pizzas with caitlin, we decided to get our drink on..

Come the end of the boat trip... Amazing bands, a million overpriced beers and an epic self rendition of bohemian rhapsody I was fuckered.!

Still feeling it.


So…. Something that has pepped me up today – I decided to go through my old iPod to rediscover my youth music ..

To which I found;
Naughty by Nature – Brilliant
New Edition – Hit me offfffffff
Re found my love for R. Kelly porn R&B
A fantastic song I haven’t heard in so long – red Astaire remix– Follow me – D’Angelo, Methodman & Redman – cant get any better



Also on a more serious note

If you remember me talking about how good District 9 was….
…apparently not so good of a movie… according to some..



Yes the premise, the social commentary was well done and in some way an effective mirror on our world… but one thing I failed to take into account, and I think many others did too.

Where it was filmed – seems to have been a parallel to the story they were telling, a poor area, with people living much like the aliens in the film in makeshift houses, uncomfortable and unstable. . And bringing big Hollywood to these peoples lives is kind of a kick in the face.

Paying the local extras $12 a day (when you know they could afford more), then having lush amounts of catering and comfort right in their faces.

A short piece about it here… http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/sep/02/district-9-soweto-residents-exploitation

(Regardless – it is a great movie.. its just a shame that these things had to happen to get it made, I still recommend you see it)


So on a closing note….

How awesome is Stupid Graffiti





Love Flipp

Haha

Good one buddy. Classic art

Brilliant day

Helllooo motherfuckers!

I'm firstly excited to see if this new blogg iPhone app works.

But..... how good is today sun is shining for the first day ever



Had a scotch and a beer at lunch followed by the quickest sandwich ever. It's put me in a great mood. But I know well probably have a week of rain to follow. Not to worry who's in for a beer tonight where shall we go?

Work has been kind of disgusting because my boss keeps farting horrible. And even worse cos I am stuck in here with the in out there. Contemplating jumping out the window but it's too high.

Other than that I've Been on a bit of a rant. Twilight is shitting me up the wall. The girls at work are obsessed with it. Half naked posters of rob Patterson or what ever his name is.

The damn books/films are pro Mormon propaganda if you ask me.
The thing that bothers me even more is we have 2 forty plus ladies here who also have half naked screen savers and posters of the guy. Weird.

Annother weird older person thing - I saw an older business woman on the tram this morning playing rpg game on her nintendo DS ... Time to get laid miss.

On another note. If anyone hasn't seen district 9 yet. Please do so. Brilliant movie. Tell me what you think.

By the way whoever invented these things need to make them last longer I've gone through 2 today



Who ever said drinking was bad?



Love Flipp

New much needed (for my own sanity) Blog

Hello Blog town,

I realised I have got to get into this more…have been on a creative blank for the last few months..

Especially considering how much I despise working at my job.

So... Anyway what’s new with me…?

Still catching the tram to work everyday… surrounded by the friendly crazies… and the horrible self proclaimed normal people, who look down on everyone else…

This morning I get on the tram, this designer clad woman, sitting on her seat, sees a blind guy on the tram feeling for a seat… her legs are in the way of his stick…. So she sighs heavily because she has to move them out of the way… sensing this bitch, the blind guy turns and asks her if he can sit down… to which she replies….im sorry, ive only got a few stops to go

The man standing next to kind of snappily says, just give him the seat will you…. To which she replies.. .’you know, you can still stand, when you’re blind

Luckily another woman got up… and bumped the lady as she did.

Me standing across the tram… just shook my head.

Other than that… coming into work to a sleazy boss, who is both racist/sexist/homophobic and just a general tyrant… the type who tricks you into false hope of hey buddy! Lets have a beer… oh we’re all good… now work! Before I ruin your life!

It’s making me a sad motherfucker… one that’s not keen to do much… resorts to not talking to anyone …and slamming shit around …

I need some creative outlet... or to work in a job I might actually enjoy.

Also – I’ve found I need to calm down on the going out aspect for the next month, as I am going overseas and cannot afford to blow all my cash like I did this weekend.

So a usual thing put in my blogs… from MySpace blogger Facebook Livejournal etc… things I like/want/hate…etc

SO… things I want at the moment

This Sweater –

A New Camera.. a proper one … my aim to become the next www.thecobrasnake.com - moustache and sleazy demeanour included

New Mac laptop…

Tickets to Anfield in OCT – ha! Good luck

I honestly need some new clothes.. I’m starting to get predictable.. grr..

Thing I am liking ATM –

Pho Vietnamese beef/noodle soup stuff

Cider – as always

NCIS – cannot beat it

Boston legal

The prospect of leaving my job/going overseas..

My rediscovery of MILO! Best ever

Milo and otis is pretty cool too…

Now as such a miserable prick… my favourite part – what I HATE at the moment…. And the list goes on…

Number one on the agenda… that lady on the tram…

number 2 – ticket scalpers.. oh…. As you may have seen from my last facebook update… man.. ive seen it a million times.. people buying 4-5 tickets not needing all of them, solely to wait until the very last moment and jack the price up ! its just plain rude..

third… something that happens most days…. My boss goes to the pub at midday doesn’t come back for 3 hours… blind and starts yelling at me about stuff that doesn’t make sense..

also.. this is an office whinge… - how come at every office there is one middle aged lady who is the ‘Office Queen/Nazi’… always group emailing about keeping the kitchen clean or ‘im throwing out everything from the fridge…come and save your stuff’ or is the only one who organises work social events… or is always the first to gossip or bitch about someone else… get a life love… or a boyfriend… (snap)

other than that… I leave you with a picture of a pug… keeps me happy!

ADIOS People!... until next time!

Hi…

Start of with things that shit me. This may just turn

Bike people that cut you off in your car… don’t you know I can kill you motherfucker, my vessel is made of metal and is stronger than yours.

But law says they dint your car… your fault.


People in public civilised places, such as work, or a restaurant, who go to the bathroom, take a shit…. And don’t even attempt to flush or shut the lid… infact today I went to the bathroom for a number one to walk into the cubicle, to find a nugget in the bowl with both the lid and the seat up. So someone has not only shat, not flushed but actually lifted the seat up too. And probably didn’t wash their hands. Bastardo!

Being put on hold by customer service only for their manager to come back and talk over me and tell me ‘im sorry we just cant answer that, you will have to wait 48 hours for this response’… I ask… why does it take 48 hours….. they reply ‘ because it does! Is there anything else I can help you with’
You didn’t help in the first place you harlot!
Or this one –
Me: has this account been finalised?
Guy: umm yes it has..
Me: what date was it paid out.
Guy: umm actually it hasn’t been paid out
Me: Right….. so have any additional payments been made
Guy: well the customer has made his mothly payments each month
Me: but has he made any more than that
Guy: umm I don’t know
Me: well can you look for me
Guy: ok sure….. um yes he has… the account was paid and finalised yesterday

FAARRRKKK!K!!!

As you can tell I deal with a bunch of spanners day in day out…. These people are meant to be customer service but they are actually just underpaid c**ts who don’t care about their jobs and just want to finish for the week so they can have a beer.

Sound Familiar!??

Shh…

So on a lighter note..

How good is thai chicken green lemongrass curry.. well it was last night thanks to the lovely Caitlin. It was great, accompanied by a tigerbeer and a shitful movie. Made for a good night.

I was put in charge of cooking the rice… and of course ruined it… but all in all definitely not the worst meal ive ever had.

Going to the gym tonight for the first time in forever…. I have the right mind to bomb the fucking place after their hard sell marketing and bleed you dry contracts they impose.

My contract is for a year… if I want to cancel, I have to pay out the remaining months… which at the moment is about 300 bucks… plus a termination fee and they don’t cancel it for 30 days so they debit you an extra month as well.
They call you a few times a month to give you free training sessions if you bring 3 friends and if they don’t sign up at the end you have to pay for the training session. They call up and ask why we haven’t been coming much… and when I tried to lie and say I moved to Sydney they proceded to offer me- if you pay a one off fee of $95 you can switch your membership to our Sydney venue.
Fuck you!
So I decided to stick it through and actually use the gym for the remaining months.
But the place is full of wankers and people trying to pick up everynight of the week… it may not be worth it.

Back to the beers and burgers I guess.

Lazy Sunday

Good afternoon lovelys.

i am officially dead today. last night was quite epic.. on a quiet note.

we made the decision to host a bit of a come over and have a beer night at ourhouse. involved were me, Caitlin, Matty, Dan , Andy Ange and Lozza , a slab of beer, a bottle of jamiesons a 6 pack of cider and a 6 pack of some other beer someone bought and 2 bottles of wine

shindig begins.

we drink listen to music get more drunk, andy starts to get worse... he drops a beer spills it all over our balcony, then yells at people for it :s, mumbles a bit, smashes a glass, we say 'andy...come on man calm down' he says, 'mmrrmmmrmr fuckyou....' he drops another beer allover our shoes, we tell him to sit down and have some water. he tells us to get fucked. (can you tell this is fun), andy procedes to walk inside to sit on the couch... falls slow motion onto our glass coffee table... not breaking it but as caitlin tries to help him up he wont move... hes half asleep upside down on the table..

all the while we are just sittin round listening to music, watching liverpool highlights and talking absolute bollocks in a crap english accent - well not me :P

andy sobres up a little and procedes to tell us all to get fucked and how shit we are. so i tackle him to the ground and sit on his stomach just to piss him off. (good mate i am)

andy falls asleep on the chair... and i wont say anything after that but you know how drunk people can get when someone falls asleep. :) i smash a bottle, dan smashes a wine glass, lozza bell uploads drunken half naked photos of me and dan on facebook :( i fuck aroundon the internet, not remembering what i actually did... probably offensive.

so this morning the house is a bomb shell, i am tired everything smells and i just had a burger for lunch. just annother weekend in the life of flip eh?


we get an apology phone call from andy this morning, which actually turns out to be a - hey is there any of my scotch left... tsk tsk.

i stupidy watch the liverpool chelsea replay only to get sad and proud at the same time.. they did a good job. watched a special on the Hillsborough Disaster, and got a bit sad. YNWA

now just thinking if i should sleep or have a beer. you decide.

anyway im too tired to write anymore. adios.

Hey peoples,

new blog - might keep doing this, as i got a few comments and people said hey you have a blog.. .:s

so here i am sitting in hideous white track pants feeling like a wog from coburg (no offense to those i know hehe)

listening to A-Trak, here's a hot tip, if you don't know him... find out. good music and seemingly good guy. maybe he might read this :D

last night, id say a medium level debacle lots of fun including me considering becoming a tram driver... they earn 80g a year and imagine what i could blog about.

sooo last night...... finished work and had a few beers in our (Fun Room)

(our office has transferred a floor of our building into a fun room with pool tables, daytona machines, Wii/PS3, pinball machines, frogger and space invaders and a fridge full of beer)

that ended up a bit boring so i left to meet the lovely caitlin drinking with her work friend and loveable gentlement Brenton. and his lovely friend Chan.

so after a few $4 scotches in a hotel bar and a drunken argument with some fat greek girl about how much of a twat Christiano Ronaldo is. which ended with....

Fat Greek Girl- but he is sooo hot, look at his chest... oh and his hair and he crys when he misses a goal means hes in touch with his feelings.

Me - ...... (i didnt even answer just walked off.)

then off to word bar where the lovley cheree (spelling :s) made us some cocktails which tasted like apple pie, then strawberry sorbet and then one that was shit, that i poured into a redbull can.

forgetting to mention that chan came along and we had to stop half way for him to projectile vomit. me thinking he was dying, i ran into a nearby hotel to see if they had a cup of water... only to scare the girl at the desk thinking i was going to rob her.

nice girl emptied her ice tea to fill it up with water. :)

then at word bar, annother projectile vomit in the toilets... mind you this was at 9 o clock bless him.


chan decides to go home. me and caitlin treck to the rochie.

which on the way we stop to get a dirty kebab... the guys remember us from smith st kebab shop they used to own and want to talk to us all night and tell us there will be trouble if we dont come back tonight :s
the highlight of this pitstop or even the night, i convince some guy who is just starting to eat a open kebab on a plate with rice type dish... to give me half of it ... so i kneel next to him scoffing his plate of meat (doesnt sound right does it) while i listen to his life story... stupid fucker neglected to realise he had lost his meal to someone who wasnt even listening to him


We hit the Rochie, the old haunt from the get drunk and have a parma days...

the night ends with about 14 pints and dancing with little sammy on my shoulders... and coming home to an empty house and a hangover this morning. not feeling too bad though..

just watched changeling about an hour ago... not a bad movie not what i expected... only thing to note... angelina jolie is getting old, much past her tombraider days me thinks.


what to do tonight. let me know. :)

right now i might clean the room and have a shower...


new thing that i hate...

taxi drivers who purposly go the wrong way... greedy fucks.

things i like - our first taxi man who is actually a pilot - cool motherfucker.


song to listen to..... - this one of the A-Trak Infinity +1 album

Nil By Mouth (Knightlife Remix) - Bag raiders


in the words of PDiddy - Lets Go!
