Nationalities I've Been Mistaken For
2007-08-17 15:17:00 I've traveled a little in my life, not enough that I'd call myself 'well traveled', but more than the average person. In the course of my travels I've often been mistaken for different nationalities. This is mainly because I'm in that particular country and people just assume I'm from there. It's not that big a deal when the people don't speak the same language as you, as you can't really notice accents unless you speak their language really well, so generally you just shrug, smile and speak louder and slower.So the times I've been mistaken for being a different nationality, people have guessed that I'm:1. American2. Canadian3. German4. Irish5. AustralianThe first two were in random countries, with the locals assuming I was from Canada or the US as I spoke English. The third I was actually in Germany and someone started speaking to me in German. Luckily I actually know a little German, so I got him to speak for me (sorry, that was a bad Dad pun).

Reasons Why I Hate Big Brother
2007-08-15 11:57:00 I used to be into Big Brother , not in a big way, and it would always take me some time to get into it. I hated the first few weeks, you watch everyone go in and comment on how annoying they are, and the first night is terrible. Everyone just gets drunk, and you can't hear anyone speaking, it's just noise. Loud drunk people talking over one another, I may as well go down the pub. That's also pretty much what goes on for the first few weeks, everyone is loud, there's too much to follow, as there's too many people.Once the crowd has thinned out a bit and the most annoying have been booted out the house, getting booed mercilessly by the waiting crowd, that's when I'll get into it. But after the first few years, it got even worse. Now I go out of my way not to watch it, for the following reasons:1. The pointless 'surprises'2. The bitching3. The stupid contestants4.

Reasons The Wench Is Awesome
2007-08-07 16:46:00 I give the Wench a lot of shit on this blog, mostly in my whiny way where I whine and sound all whiny. Then whine. But she's been really good to me recently, and when I say recently I mean since I've known her. Although she has put in real effort in the last few weeks as I've been working late a lot and not exactly jumping with energy when I've gotten home. She picks me up from the station already, but now she's got a smile on her face.Basically I don't think I give her enough praise (not that she gives me any), but I complain a lot as well, as I just demonstrated. Anyway, here's 5 reasons why she's awesome:1. She always talks to anyone.2. She's always up for getting wasted.3. She's watched more of my porn than I have. 4. She's just as lazy as I am, which means she can't bug me about being lazy.5. She's Hot.I think the first point is very important. The Wench talks, she talks a lot, to anyone who will listen. And most of the time they do want to listen. When I first met... More About: Awesome , Reasons

Reasons I'm Glad To Be Home
2007-06-12 18:18:00 As fun as Download Festival is every year, it's always great to get home. I enjoy camping quite a bit, but at a festival it's not quite the same. You don't have as much room, you don't have ready access to your car (it's a 50 minute walk away), the toilets are always far away and they stink. And if you want a shower you have to wait hours for it.The camping is something to be endured, not enjoyed. No one enjoys camping at a festival. The only good thing about camping is... hang on... I'll think of something... It's doesn't take as long to get into the arena the next day! Ha! I knew I could think of some reason! Now for 5 reasons why I'm glad to be home:1.

The Wench's brother (let's call him Bitch for now) is already there, with his tent set up and waiting for us. This year Bitch supplied the tent, a £100 10-man mansion, for just 4 people: Me, the Wench, Bitch and his band mate Spider (not his real name, but he is a drummer).I'm currently waiting to leave, I've got half an hour. the last 3 days have been the slowest of my life!

Stupid Long Words
2007-06-01 13:10:00 I hate government or military speak. It's the kind of talking where the speaker could say what they wanted to much simpler, but decides to throw in a bunch of big and possibly made up words. This makes the speaker feel big and clever, and the ordinary person listening think he's a giant cock. Generally I see people who use words like this as condescending fucktards.I don't do this that much as I often run out of big fancy words and end up repeating myself, saying the wrong word or just making up my own words, like George Bush (but on a good day, with a slow autocue that's spelt phonetically). A few examples of words like these are below:1. Irregardless2. Pejorative3. Obfuscate4. Egregious5. BehoovesI am aware that irregardless isn't actually a word, but it is used rather a lot considering. In fact irregardless is exactly the sort of thing I'm talking about.

Things I learned about Spain
2007-05-30 13:08:00 It's been about 3 weeks since I last posted. I do have an excuse for a large part of that time, as I was away on holiday in Spain , visiting some of the Wench's family (she's not Spanish, they just live there). Since returning we've had a bank holiday in the UK, so that's even more time off. In fact I've only worked a few days in 3 weeks, and been pretty busy while at work.Anyway, I'm back now (for a few days at least) and ready to tell you the truth about Spain. I'd gathered that the Spanish are fairly lazy, what with their siestas and the building site that is their country. There's also a lot that I'd been told that had misled me about Spain, but on the other hand some of what I'd been told was totally correct:1. It's not as cheap as I previously assumed.2. Young Spaniards have a death wish when driving bikes or quads.3. The food is as good as you've heard.4. It's not as warm as everyone says.5.

Reasons To Hate David Caruso
2007-05-08 18:28:00 Oh, David Carus o, how do I hate thee? Let me count the ways. It's been a long relationship, for many seasons of CSI:Miami I didn't realise what you were doing. It didn't occur to me to actually pay attention to you. I was blinded by the greatness of the Vegas series, and eventually the New York incarnation.I can remember the exact moment it happened. It was like a switch being flicked in my head. I thought to myself: "You're SHIT!!". The next thing I know I recognised every cheesy line, every time you moved your glasses, your hero complex, and finally the fact that you're ONLY A CSI. You're not in SWAT, you shouldn't clear a house on your own, or lead in a team of heavily armed and armoured policemen into a criminal's home. You should be sitting outside, with the other CSIs, waiting for the scene to be cleared. You're a twat, and it's time people knew.1.

Shotgun Rules
2007-04-27 11:45:00 Calling Shotgun is an ancient tradition, going back many decades to those pirate wannabes, the Cowboys. Back in the famous Cowboy Era people used to travel around by wagons and the person sitting next to the driver would carry a shotgun. The shotgun was mainly for show, as no one would be stupid enough to attack a Cowboy, and the mythical 'Indians' have since been debunked as Yankee propaganda.Since then the practice has extended to cars, with the rules of Shotgun becoming loosely defined. A lot of House Rules have been created over time, with many regional variations and changes being applied. Here are what I consider to be some of the most important Shotgun Rules:1. Shotgun can only be called when in sight of the car.2. If two people call shotgun at the same time, whoever reaches the car first wins.3. Shotgun can only be called if you are on the way to the car.4. Shotgun can be called for all seats in the car, so the last person to call Shotgun gets the Bitch Seat (middle seat)....

Types of Crap
2007-04-26 12:13:00 That's right, a new low. I will today be discussing the many different types of shit people take. I feel that this a much ignored topic, even by blokes. Men tend to make comments when they come back from the toilet, but full on dump orientated conversations are fairly rare.To start things off, here's a few definition's that I've come across during those rare moments when the topic of releasing the chocolate hostage arises:1. The Ghost - You've pinched off a loaf, but when you go to wipe, there's nothing there.2. The Neverending - No matter how many times you wipe, there's still more poop to remove.3. The Shotgun - It comes out so quick with a bit of gas, leading to a lovely pebbledash effect on the bowl.4. The Ring Burn - After eating spicy food, mainly curries, you get a nasty burn around your balloon knot.5. The Guinness - The nastiest, blackest, most foul smelling turd made by man or beast.Of course there's plenty more out there such as The Train, The Behemoth, and The Ro...

Commercials I Hate
2007-04-25 12:34:00 Adverts can be great, but the vast majority suck like MySpace: badly. Adverts can bring you down in the middle of a good program, or film. I can't wait to get Sky+ (England's version of Tivo) so I don't have to watch adverts anymore. Most of the good ones you get to see on YouTube anyway. In fact YouTube has become quite a good trial for a commercial, if it's good, it'll be passed around, like a drunk cheerleader at a frat party.Bad adverts are boring, uninspired, stupid, badly produced, acted or dubbed. Here's a few of the adverts I've found illustrating a few of these points, or they just grind my gears:1. Toyota Yaris2. Get Unhooked (Anti-smoking)3. HI! I'M BARRY SCOTT!! (Cilit Bang) - Remixed version! 4. Orange Mobile Phones5. FrostiesThe Orange advert is clever, but is on all day. In my office there are TVs all over the place, and I hear this advert every 10mins.

Ways To Pay Your Rent
2007-04-19 18:25:00 I've never had that much of a problem paying my rent. I know it's a common complaint amongst students and the like, but I was lucky enough to get help in that department. While I was at university my parents covered my rent for me for the first two years while I was in halls. My third year I was working 'in the industry', and the in the final year I was supposed to have saved enough money to pay it myself. Since then I've been working and it's not really been a problem. So from my experience, and that of some of my less fortunate friends, here's my Top 5 ways to pay your rent:1. Don't2. Perform 'favours' for your landlord3. Sell your computer4. Get the Devil to pay it by challenging him to an elaborate Rock Off 5. Direct DebitThat's right, No.1 was 'Don't'. While this may seem like a stupid suggestion you'd be surprised how often this works. A mate of mine got away with nearly 8 months rent simply by not paying. Of course you need a landlord who is either stupid, laz... More About: Your , Rent
Spartans
2007-04-17 18:15:00 So over two weeks after I said I was going to see 300 I finally managed to drag the Wench to the cinema to see it on The Big Screen. It was definitely worth the effort. The only thing I can think though is that it's probably not going to be as good the second time round. Sure it's impressive, the visuals are stunning, and everything looks just like a moving comic book, but other than all the dudes with rippling muscles killing hundreds of masked samurai-esque warriors what are you going to concentrate on now you know what's coming? What am I talking about? It was AWESOME!!In honour of the magnificence that was 300 I give you my Top 5 Spar tan s:1. Michigan State Spartans2. John Spartan3. Master Chief4. Kratos5. King LeonidasThe Spartans were apparently the finest soldiers the world has ever produced. What happened to them? If they were that great they can't have been annihilated. Maybe they moved.

Ways To Resolve An Argument
2007-04-12 13:25:00 At last, I drag together enough time and inspiration to squeeze out another post. It's been a long time coming but don't get too over excited. I've seen a lot of arguments recently, I've not participated in many, but I've witnessed quite a few.

Then Slammy McDoor-Swinger moved in next door.Here's the top 5 things that make the Wench pray for a small localised holocaust and/or nuclear blast:1. They're not particularly friendly2. They don't turn off the hallway light.3. They don't lock the hallway door.4. They slam their doors.5. They park halfway in our parking space.These may seem like small petty things, and they are, but they really get on the Wench's nerves. Only the parking really annoys me, as we only have one space (which we own), the car park is always pretty full and they're taking up two...
