Posted in Humour, Office, Wit on June 29, 2006 | 5 Comments »

Sometimes one has to roll with the punches and take things in your stride. Other times, tact has no place in this world, and one has to tackle what life throws at you… head-on.
ME: Dude, did you just fart while I was taking to you?
HE: Erm… No, of course not! (crooked smile)
ME: Are you sure? [...]

Making random connections

Posted in Anxiety, Childhood, Malls, Memory on June 28, 2006 | 3 Comments »

I remember the first time when I felt really alone, or should I say… abandoned. It was the scariest feeling in the world. I remember thinking that nobody was going to find me. I was going to die and no-one was going to know that I was dead because they probably would not notice that [...]

Now I’m not much of [...]

Me: Can I have the chicken combo, please? (combo = ½ grilled chicken, large fries, 4 bread rolls with a side order of tangy mayonnaise)
Assistant: Do you want bread rolls and fries with that?
Me (perplexed): Uh… of course I do. It thought that’s what I ordered?

Ghost in the machine

Posted in Plonkers, Rants, Relationships, Women on June 2, 2006 | 6 Comments »

The gf says I have anger issues, and I fear she may be right. I can be an inconsiderate arse, and many times, there exists a distinct disconnect between my brain and my mouth.
