Yeah, sorry I'm a bit late with this "update". Had some techincal problems, server, dns, tcp-ip blah blah blah
I've been a bit busy, with work and some side projects I have happening...but nobody wants to read about me... hell I don't want to know about me... so onto the attempted funny for the day.
I have placed more gifts in. I guess people still buy people stuff even if it is not christmas, unless you are a jerk, or really poor and cannot afford food, but the UN is sending you computers or something so you can look up shoes on e-bay.
I've been shopping a bit lately. Well returning stuff that other people have bought anyway. Take for example two lanterns. There you go.
Now for that last paragraph to make sense I probably have to explain some things. Such as what are the lanterns and what are the translucent lime g-string. I got a phone call from a friend.
Friend: Hey George what are you doing?
Me: Sitting.
Friend: I need a favour.
Me: No, my arse is still sore.
Friend: Nah, not that I need you to return something for me.
Me: Huh?
Friend: I'll be there at 1.
Me: OK.
Note: this conversation may not have happened.
My friend arrives at my house at one o'clock, carrying a plastic bag. Now normally when people approach me with plastic bags I normally do one of two things, not give a shit or sing the intro of Batman to the tune of I Dream of Jeannie. However this plastic bag seemed different, it was that lime green color that little old asian woman carry their rice from the local shopping center, home in. (click here for the batman lyrics).
Me: What is that?
Friend: Lanterns.
Me: ?!?!?!? (yes i said that!)
Friend: Yeah, you have to return them.
Me: Why don't you?
Friend: I already did.
Me: ?!?!?!?
Friend: Then I bought them again.
The logic was also lost on me until I found out he was using them for a short film he was making that needed them. He was buying them for the shoots and then returning them. Now what kind of film needs lanterns? What kind of film has lanterns crucial to the plot? If you guessed that it is a movie about the struggle of the indigenous peoples of Australia against mining of uranium ore on their sacred land and the desecration of their habitat, you would be a fucking dickhead. It is a movie about a necrophiliac, he uses the lanterns when he is digging up the bodies or something like that. The film is called "Man who fucked dead people, because pigs bite sometimes."
Anyway back to the story. I go to return the product and in front of me is a woman that was so big, she would not be out of place anchoring war ships to the bottom of the deepest trenches in the world. She was waving around a pink see-through g-string wildly in the air exclaiming.
I want to get the lime ones, and I don't want to pay an extra three dollars!
This made my day, welcome to retartville.
