First day of University.
My nerves are making my teeth hurt.
Watching Ally McBeal for the first time since I...
I feel like this show had a bigger affect on me than I realised. I think I wanted to be Ally McBeal and I think at some point I forgot, and all I was left with was the gigantic crush on Robert Downey Jr.

My dear friend Benjamin Law wrote this excellent piece on the state of sex-ed in Australia, and you should read it.
In one presentation for Year 8 and 9 students, one middle-aged couple declared actor Scarlett Johansson was promiscuous (rather than, say, “responsible”) for publicly declaring she had regular STI checks. They argued condoms were ineffective and “flimsy”, and showed an...

Their Birthday is the 27th of May.
Mine, is the 18th of June.
This year they are having their Birthday party (A Party Bus) on the 23rd of June.
The weekend after my Birthday.
The weekend I was planning on having my Birthday party.
They see nothing wrong with this. Apparently this is the first weekend they, and boyfriends, are free.
They are so fucking inconsiderate and I am so tired of it,...

midsummeradieu:
until Downton Abbey came along. I watched Sherlock before it was big on tumblr (by sheer coincidence. I’m not trying to be that “I watched it before it was cool” guy), and I watched Doctor Who before I was really into tumblr, so the fandoms never really bothered me. Now all I see is cast pictures, and glamour shots of Michelle Dockery, and all the things other fandoms do...

I wrote a short op-ed about the reaction to Whitney Houston’s death.
(NB I didn’t come up with the headline but obviously I LOVE IT)
I should go back to sleeping 12 hours.
When you get up at 8am you get hungry and you eat breakfast.. And then that sets the tune for the rest of the day. I’ll eat lunch, and then dinner - at a “reasonable“ time. I can’t afford three meals a day. What is this..
Thus far 2012 you be a rockin'.

No-one at my work gets my jokes. I’m hilarious, dammit. I just tell myself that my jokes are too high brow for them.
I had that problem at my work, but I was working with a gaggle of menopausal women. On Facebook it’s mostly my family - we used to have the same humour, but I evolved, and now they think I’m...

Which house did you end up choosing?
We didn’t really get a choice, the amazing house’s Owner was being super picky and the real estate agent suggested we cut our losses and go with the average one before the offer expired. But we’re really excited about the average one.
No-one on Facebook thinks I'm funny.
I laugh at me all the time, everyone should laugh at my jokes, they’re FUNNY, goddamnit.

machinegunmiddlefingers replied to your post: Trawling the internet for interior decorating ideas.
my roommate got a ton of slides on ebay and punched a hole in the top and bottom and connected them with paperclips (I’d have used something else) and they hang over our windows abt 3 inches apart and they look cool when the light comes through them.
They sell them at a bazaar near here. I wanted...

In a thread titled “WTF is this sh*t? (fb feminist bull…you will RAGE)”, and the description ran;
-dude doesn’t want to have to tell his daughter what she can and cannot wear -is insulted that the societal pressures are on the females to avoid rape -dude says it’s the boy’s fault for raping, so concludes that he will kill the father of the boy who rapes his girl

jimpson asked: You have talents! I haven't heard you sing one on one but from what I hear you were in the Australian Youth Choir so I'm pretty sure you're good at singing. You have a fantastic eye for fashion, putting together outfits whether it be for yourself and others as well. You're a talented baker and cook! You're also a wonderful interior decorator, every space you've...

Bitchin to me how no-one helped in the end for the end of lease with cleaning and whatnot. Oh I’m sorry you fucking pseudo-environmental hippy, not only did I mow the lawns throughout the year and keep the house in living order, my parents drove an hour and a half to do the gardening several times…

marxisforbros:
Today at the security course a nineteen year old guy in my work-group told us that he’s engaged. He was showing us pictures of his fiancee when tear-drop tattoo guy suddenly showed us a picture of his girlfriend too. I decided what the hell, and took out my phone and showed a picture of Rhiann. Tear-drop tattoo guy said “Fuck off, who is that?”
I had to show them a picture of me...
