The Flintstones are 50!

The prettiest Google logo ever?

The Flintstones was first aired on September 30th 1960, fifty years ago, and has to be one of the most well known cartoons out there. Apart from Donald (of course) this has always been one of my favourites. And there's just something special about theme songs from your childhood...

Browser with a sense of humour

I tried opening Firefox when it presented an error message:
"Well, this is awkward."

It had tried to open the tabs from a previous session and obviously thought it was rather embarassing when it wasn't able to do so.

- Anyone think IE would phrase it quite like that? :)

More jokes from Facebook

"Man and wife are making a new password for the computer.
Man types in "mypenis".
Wife falls to the floor laughing cause the computer says "error: too short"."


*thinking wistfully of the ones who were never too short*
(without, of course, being 'too direct' in any way possible..)

Kitty's wet day

"A hungry kitty stood by the river's bank when a bread crumb came along. The kitty reached out, caught the bread crumb, and ate it. Then a slice of bread came down the stream. The hungry kitty cat did the same thing - it reached out, and it ate the the slice of bread. Then half a loaf came down the river. The pussy cat reached out... but then it all went wrong; the pussy slipped, and landed right there in the river with the bread...


The moral of the story is... the bigger the loaf of bread, the wetter the pussy!"


...weird aunts make for awkward and amusing entertainment on Facebook...

Facebook clarification

Of all the things I've seen people post on Facebook, this one has got to be one of the best and worst ones this year;

"August 2010 had 5 Sundays, 5 Mondays and 5 Tuesdays. This only occurs once every 823 years, and according to Feng Shui those who tell their friends about this during the month of September will receive a lot of money. So copy and post!"

1. I hate chain statuses.
2. Feng Shui.. money.. tell your friends.. oh please!
3. This message doesn't even make any sense and is clearly designed to see who has brains... and who doesn't.

Every time August starts on a Sunday, there will be 5 each of Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays. This happens every five or six years, except for when leap years makes August 1st go from Saturday to Monday, skipping Sunday.

Our dates follow a pretty easily discernible pattern; if August 1st is on a Sunday this year, it will be so again in 11 years. Then 6 years, 5, 6, 11, 6, 5, 6, 11 and so on.

Meaning this happens in 1993, 1999, 2004, 2010, 2021, 2027, 2032 etc etc.
Not every 823 years.

The way our calendars are planned, nothing happens only once every 823 years.


What on earth makes people post things like this without checking the facts?

But hey, I shouldn't complain - at least I learned something new today. I do get way too detailed some times...

And maybe I shouldn't be too hard on other people - if it weren't for them, Facebook would be an awfully boring place!

...823 years...

Hackers and the importance of Viagra

Not so impressed with Gmail anymore as it turns out emails they told me were intercepted and "Delivery failed" have been sent anyway.

To quote one recipient: "I got your email about viagra and how important it is".
(It seems not everyone is familiar with the concept of spam...)

Since I know a few of you were seemingly sent that email, could someone let me know whether you got it or not?

I have a feeling I shouldn't be sending out a new mass email asking "Got spam?", but I'm curious to know how many received it... and why Gmail told me no one did.

I've been hacked!

At 1.14pm I was hacked by someone seemingly located on a mobile device in Germany.

This person sent approximately a hundred emails to people in my address book, resulting in Google shutting it down. Which meant they shut down this blog too.

First of all - if an email got through to you, I'm sorry. I hate getting spam too and I always wonder what people do to get their email addresses taken over.

Second - Gmail seems to have caught pretty much every single email, labeled them as spam, and refused to send them. I am seriously impressed!

Third - to the best of my knowledge I have never had an account hacked before and now I'm not entirely sure how to prevent it from happening again. I'm resetting the obvious options but I'll have to look into it some more in the morning.


I wonder if this means someone has physically been in my Gmail account or if they've hijacked my address from somewhere else.. Either way, I hope they keep their sticky fingers away from my accounts in the future!

Blogging

One thing that often strikes me when visiting random (or not so random) blogs is how many of them seem to have lasted only a few months.

People seem to start off with a blast, telling the readers everything they're interested in and everything they'll write about. A few post (and months) later they do a post along the lines of; "I'm sorry I update so rarely, this will change from now on, stay tuned!"

Then a post or two later the blog ends, gets buried in Blogger's basement, until a year or so later I stumble across it and blow off the dust.


Do people quickly realize blogging wasn't as fun and rewarding as they thought? That they didn't get fifty comments on each post like those blogs they've read before?

Or do people realize they don't really have that much interesting stuff to tell the world anyway?

I'm usually in the second category but I'm sticking with it. I'm not quite sure why sometimes, but it's become a little hiding place for me (though not so hidden anymore).

This blog is kinda old (for a blog) and I started it basically before I even knew what a blog was - so I had no expectations. Maybe that's why I feel I have a right to fill your screen with random words strung together and wonder if you'll read them..

I realize how quickly blogs die, and I am glad there are some people out there who do stick with it. I'll do my best to stay among them - apples won't look good with dust on them.

I'm a self absorbed slut. What else is new?

I'm very self absorbed. I'm a slut too. And a "female horndog".

At least according to the random stranger who read my blog and found it provoking enough to track me down and tell me exactly how he feels about me.

You see, I'm ruining my life here. Not only am I having sex "just for the hell of it". Instead of being ashamed, as anyone should be, I actually admit to that fact online. In a blog. Which apparently everyone I know reads; my family, my friends - even my future employer who would never consider hiring someone like me. Why?

Because "a reasonably cultured intelligent person would not admit to having sex with a person they did not imagine themselves having a long term relationship with". At least so says the stranger (who ironically enough called himself "ReallyNiceGuy"). Before he ended by saying that I (the slut) probably never have sex anyway since I'm too self absorbed.

Facebook - the Annoying Contacts

We all have them; the annoying contacts. They are annoying in several different ways, and most of them are not that bad all the time. We are all probably an annoying contact to someone else, at one point or another.
I wrote about Farmtown. a while ago, but people on Facebook itself can be pretty frustrating too!

• People who use "cutsie-speak". Often seen on comments on photos and goes along the lines of "ooooh u r soo pretty!!", "prettiiiiieessstt!!", "no ur so hoottt!", "no u r!", "ur the beessttt!!". Yes, it was a nice photo of a beautiful girl, but what happens with people's language when they see something pretty? Do people automatically revert back to being 14, or is it like when people see babies? We all know how that works. 

• People whose status updates only revolve around 1) how drunk they were last weekend, and 2) how drunk they are planning to get next weekend. It's fine being enthusiastic, I love that. But when you're in your mid twenties and all you write is "I was soo wasted, dunno how I got home! should I drink again tomorrow?" But I suppose it does says something about your state of mind when most of your friends and the people who comment are very young teenage girls, a decade or more younger than you.

Sportscheck's one-eyed Adidas monster

German sporting goods store Sportscheck's newest advertising strategy consists of showing as much as possible of their models to increase attention and sales. So they put this guy in a little blue Adidas thing.

Unfortunately, they didn't think he was showing quite enough so they decided to let some more of him peek out.

Whether this bold new tactic was aimed at the girls or the guys is hard to say - either way, they have received quite a lot of attention the past few days. But naturally they claim it wasn't planned, that it wasn't an accident, right?

Actually, they've refused to comment on it at all according to Norwegian newspaper VG.


All I can say is.. although it is a little hard to take your eyes off it (which probably means their strategy worked), I'm glad most guys have smaller dicks than that one! Can you imagine seeing little one-eyed monsters peeking out at you like that whenever you go to the beach?

Guys, wear shorts, Please!

Norwegian what?

I heard a new term today and innocent as I am I expected it to be something nice, something clean, something... innocent.

Norwegian nasty - When an erect male penis is inserted into a female's ass, and afterwards the male proceeds to receive oral sex from the woman.

I just gave that girl a mean Norwegian nasty.

Urbandictionary.com seems to have a lot of terms starting with "Norwegian" these days;

Norwegian culture - A perfectly valid excuse for punching someones testicles.

Norwegian massage - a woman massaging another woman without using her hands

Norwegian goggles - An act of shame committed upon a passed out person, where the perpetrator places his hairy naked scrotum upon the closed eyes of the victim. This must be performed while facing the victim's feet, so that the penis will naturally fall upon their nose in a manner resembling the nose guard of traditional viking helmets.

I'm sensing a theme here...

Return to Chat

Some times I dare venture back onto chat. It's weird how the older I get, the fewer people talk to me. Or maybe that's not weird at all...

I never quite get used to typing a new number when someone asks how old I am. I'm still stuck at 19 in chat, I've been mostly a stranger to it since then.

Today a guy was getting annoying, as they tend to get, and it ended like this;

apples: I guess that's bye bye to you
Sag: fuck off
Sag: :)
Sag: you are sick

I don't think I've ever got a smiley face between the "fuck" and the "sick" before...

Wear your beauty on the outside, please!

"LONDON (Reuters) - The way that BeautifulPeople.com accepts new members is simple. A potential member applies with a photo and a brief profile. Over 48 hours, existing members of the opposite sex vote whether or not to admit them.

The site was founded in 2002 in Denmark and went live across the globe last month. Since then, the site has rejected nearly 1.8 million people from 190 countries, admitting just 360,000 new members."

From the website;

• Do looks matter to you, when it comes to selecting a partner?
• Do you want to guarantee your dates will always be beautiful?
• No more filtering through unattractive people on mainstream sites.
• Meet beautiful people locally and from around the world - now.

Online dating used to be a little taboo. Now it's getting more accepted, but apparently there's still one thing wrong with it; there's ugly people there!! Oh the horror..

Of course, everyone understands how humiliating it must be for Barbie herself to meet this wonderful guy she's been talking to, this potential Mr. Right (or at least Mr. Right Now and tonight) only to discover he looks like the Grinch. She must feel so violated!


The site has recently gone global so... where are Barbie and the Grinch from?

"Fewer than 12.5% of British men and 15% of women who have applied to BeautifulPeople.com have been accepted, an emailed statement from the website showed. Only the male Russian and Polish applicants fared worse than British men.

Swedish men have proved the most successful, with 65 percent being accepted, while Norwegian women are considered the most beautiful with 76 percent accepted."

I'm not entirely sure if knowing that people from your country are considered the most beautiful is a good thing or a terrible thing for those of us who would never even entertain the thought of trying to join a club like that (key word being trying), where looks are everything and personality nothing..

The site claims to be honest and not politically correct (in that they admit beauty is important when selecting a mate), and also offers a "Business Area for networking and employment opportunities" since looks are critical when doing business.


I guess this site is pretty much Superficial Central. I have a feeling I wouldn't like it there - and they sure wouldn't like me. The site has been criticized a bit but I'm thinking... if this keeps the most shallow people off other sites (because, let's face it, the rest of us can never measure up to them) that makes them steer well clear of me.
And that is definitely a good thing!

(apples - always looking for the silver lining!)

Google Wave..

.. is apparently the new holy grail of the Internet.

They're getting so many requests, and have so many invites to send, that;

"Invitations will not be sent immediately.
We have a lot of stamps to lick. "

Don't you just love geeks with a sense of humour?

(apples - currently very embarassed I couldn't spell "grail" right without googling it..)

Threesome with a Realdoll?

I've been getting a lot of hits on a post I did on Realdolls a while ago. I decided to google it.. or them.. and see what else is out there. I came across this entry on Craigslist;

"If you don't know what a Realdoll is, either look it up or you should probably just move on. For those that are aware, I'll give you the stats on my girl: Gabrielle has a Face 16, Body 5, she is about 4'10', lighter skin tone, black hair, trimmed pubic hair, and 32 E breasts. She is a hottie in every sense of the word.

If you are serious about this, we would like to hear from you. You must be respectful of both Gabrielle and myself. Neither of us have ever had a threesome before, so this will be new to both of us. Also, she isn't the most cooperative girl as far as positioning goes - although she is tiny, she is quite heavy. Perhaps with another guy present, it would open up additional possibilities. I'm not as picky as she is, so it would probably help your chances if you addressed your messages to her. She would love to hear your basic info and any thoughts/ideas for our threesome. She has several outfits she could wear for us."

Is this for real? It certainly could be. There are plenty of people out there who do way weirder things than have threesomes with their dolls. And I'm sure there are people who do way weirder things than pretend their dolls can read and are picky when it comes to men too..

But, in case this is only a joke (cuz it does sound just a bit too good to be true), man would it be fun to read the replies to an ad like that!

Snowflakes

I found this cute site where you can make your own snowflakes without making a mess with all those little pieces of paper.

I don't know how people do it, mine (like the one on the right), didn't turn out anything like other people's...

What do you think?

Farmtown

I've been playing Farmtown on Facebook for a while. I don't know why, I get absolutely nothing out of it, but I guess it's just one of those things.

Although an excellent way to waste time, there are a few things about Farmtown that are quite annoying - and you'll probably agree with me on this if you've played it yourself. Unless you're one of those people who do these things, in which case - STOP doing them!!

1. Beggars.
   In the chatroom; "hire meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee to wrkkkkkkkk!!!!" or somthing like
   h
   i
   r
   e
   m
   e
   Over and over.
   And over.
   
   
2. People who hire too many workers.
   Imagine you're babysitting the neighbours' two kids. When you show up you're alone, but within the next few minutes, half a dozen other babysitters show up. The parents have hired all of you, and you have to share the money. You can choose to go home and earn nothing, or stay and earn a little. You all end up getting annoyed with each other.
   
   
3. Workers who step on your toes or follow you around when harvesting/plowing.
   You're in a parking garage. It's practically empty, plenty of spots all around. As you've parked your car and are about to open the door, another car comes by. For no apparent reason it pulls up right next to you, so close you can barely open the door. If you ask why, the driver of the other car gets pissy and tells you to shut up.
   
   
4. People who hire others without having work to do.
   This time you're a plumber. You get a call from someone who needs your help, you drive to their place (after waiting the apropriate amount of time, your being a plumber and all). When you get there you realize they either aren't there, or they don't need your help. If you ask why they hired you, they get pissy and tell you to shut up.
   
   
5. People who have a weird relationship with their trees.
   You're a housekeeper. You're hired to clean someone's apartment. You do your thing, spend some time, collect your pay. They then start screaming at you, and telling the whole town not to hire you, because you dared tidy up their kitchen! They never told you to clean the kitchen, how dare you?!? Did they tell you to do the whole house but the kitchen? Nope.
   

Now... you may wonder why I play this game when there are so many things that annoy me. Truth be told, I wonder the same myself...

But honestly - these things.. they're not my problem.
The problem is everybody else ;)

That boring?

Do you get people telling you you're boring to talk to? Just not interesting? They had hopes for you and hung in there, but you've let them down - you just don't have anything fun to say. You're not entertaining. "You're more interesting on your blog."

Yeah I didn't think so. I guess that's because when people think of you that way, you don't really want to talk to them again. And (hopefully) they won't want to talk to you either.


Honesty comes in all shapes and sizes. Some believe it's ok to hide things. Others believe that if you don't tell a person everything that's on their mind they're not being truthful (I knew one of those and got enough negative remarks in a week to last me a couple years).

Honesty can break you down or build you up (if both, hopefully in that order). Learning things about yourself can help you break bad habits and grow as a person. You can see your faults and be able to determine whether this person has a point or not.


I've got these comments and more like them twice, in the past couple weeks. Both cases were random people on my MSN who I've never met.

On the one hand I think "why the hell do you think it's my job to entertain you?!". On the other they do have a point.. My life is so boring at the moment, I have absolutely nothing to talk about.


I've been standing still long enough, it's time to do something about it.
