Do Us All a Favour and Get Your Head Out of Your ass

Ok rage time. Woo! I was walking down the street on the weekend, minding my own business. AT one point I asked someone for a bit of direction. He was very nice and was giving me that direction. Then, this other man, no, I refuse to give him that much credit, this other asshole, strolls past and looks at the one helping me and says to him, nice and loud, “No matter how bad you’ve got it, there’s always someone worse off than you, eh?”

At first I thought I was losing my mind or misheard him, but the guy helping me seemed to bristle under his skin as well. Ok, asshole, and all assholes like you, here’s a message for you, so listen up. first of all, who says I’m worse off than you? So my eyes don’t work. I’m happy, I have food in my house, a roof over my head, a life, good friends, and plans for the future. Don’t cry for me, I don’t need your god damn pity. I need you to treat me like anyone else you meet on the street. And next I need you to take that blindfold of ignorance off your face and have it run over by the nearest transport truck, because right now, you look a hell of a lot worse off than me. At least I can see people for what they really are and don’t have to barricade myself in with the shallow ones like you. It’s people like you who make it possible for us to be worse off than you because you don’t give us a chance to show what we can do. But I refuse to pity you. I hope you figure out your a dick and start working to fix it real soon. It would make the world a better place.

Guest Posts are Here Again

Well, I got an email from our new-found commenter Jen saying she had something to say here. Since I always like it when there’s a new opinion to add to the mix, I figured I’d put it up here. So, without further adieu, here’s what she had to say.

Arg I Hate Autimated Computers
Well as I sit here reading Carin’s trouble with bell story something occurred to me.
Why is it that most companies have autimated computers that handle their calls. Emily is one from bell and she’s mighty frustrating.
When I call Bell I would like to talk to a real person not just some computer who mixes up everything you ask her about and mistakes the words “I want my account balance” to you want a new product alright.
She’s not the only one that buggs me. Then there are the kind of computers that want you to make a selection to handle your call by pressing 1 2 3 or 4. You can’t just talk to someone anymore.
What has happened to our society? I don’t know but it’s mighty frustrating.
In closing when I want to ask a question of a Bell representative or OSAP I just want to talk to someone not listen to 15 computer generated prompts before someone actually comes on the phone.

Can You Hear Me Now?

A german scam artist [I refuse to use the word inventor] has released
a mobile phone for the dead.
No, I’m serious, stop laughing. Ok don’t, but I’m still serious.

The phone, which goes by the name Telefon-Engel [which translated into English means Phone Angel], comes in a black box with a loudspeaker that is placed on top of the grave. It runs on a battery that lasts for at least twelve months, and the inventor claims that the sound quality is excellent. I’m not sure who exactly this is going to benefit, unless there have been some recent innovations in the field of decomposition audio that I’m not aware of.

If all of this isn’t enough, wait until you hear how much it’s going to cost you, ok, hopefully not you to get your hands on one of your very own.

It will set you back €1495, which is a cool $2407.47 Canadian but thankfully, well sort of, you can return the unit within 18 months if for some reason you aren’t happy with it and get a €50 [$80.52 Canadian] refund. Isn’t that nice?

A Joke that Tells Itself

Just read this and think about it for a second.

Aphasia Program – provides a follow-up to speech therapy for people who have Aphasia (communication difficulty) due to a stroke. Participants work at strengthening
communication skills through this goals-based program. To access the Aphasia Program call us.

Somebody should really email these people. It might have to be me.

What Is Hell

The following is supposedly an actual question given on a university chemistry exam. The answer by one student was so profound that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle’s Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let’s look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state: that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell.

Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle’s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1.If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2.If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, “it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you”, and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct … leaving only Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting “Oh my God.”

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY “A”!!!

Oh My God!

On the news just now there was a story about jury selection beginning in Michael Jackson’s child molestation trial. the bulk of the report however focused on all of the fans who had come from far and wide to support him and to catch a glimpse of him. There was 1 guy from Tennessee who was described as a life long Jackson fan who actually quit his job and moved to California so that he could be there for the trial from beginning to end. I’ll let other people take care of making fun of him and instead I’ll just ask a question since nothing I could possibly say could be any more entertaining than what you’ve already read. What…the…fuck?
