the mad hatter’s funeral

Things have been quiet around here lately. I’ve mostly been very busy and the only recent posts have been on my “professional” blog and a lot of commenting on other people’s blogs … it seems that everyone comes up with good ideas for posts at the same time I do and subsequently get the jump on me … anyhow …

I was recently introduced to watkykjy by my friend stii … and more particularly the “Wat Kyk Jy Fok Jou!” project that deals with bad driving and (more specifically) people parking like cunts. Their philosophy: “If you park like a cunt, you most likely drive like one as well”

I made my first submission today and, if you’re in the Cape Town area and park like a cunt, beware … I’m on a mission to expose more of you inconsiderate dickheads.

If you spot someone driving or parking like a cunt, take a photo and pass it on – details are on their website. Now if only we can find a similar initiative that exposes corrupt politicians …

My friend Willie decided the rest of the world should know 8 things about me that they don’t already. He also wishes me to tag some of my blogger friends who (hopefully) haven’t been tagged yet … which sucks, because this round has been going for a while.

1. I shave more than just my head & face in the mornings –
2. I am red/green colour blind – yes, I see colour, but certain shades of certain colours can be a real bitch sometimes.
3. I once owned an Opel … an ugly (well they’re all ugly) brown Ascona 1.6 automatic – I hate Opels in general, but this thing was slow, ugly (did I mention that they’re all ugly) and almost constantly breaking.
4. I never did finish Final Fantasy VII – I am an avid fan of this turn based masterpiece and am most embarrassed to say that I never finished the most highly regarded of all the Final Fantasy games … I kept dying on stage two of the ultimate boss level … DIE SEPIROTH DIE!!!
5. I once came dead last in a marathon – well … half marathon/obstacle course jobby – it was primary school and my testicles we just becoming conscious of being … ’nuff said.
6. I have erection issues – I can’t get it down sufficiently in the morning to make good aiming at the right end of the loo … so I end up either peeing like a girlie or peeing in the shower … boys will be boys I suppose.
7. I had plastic surgery once – and never again do I wish to own a credit card … they’re evil
8. I am shit scared of growing old – I am not even elaborating on this one.

There’s it – now the world knows eight things about me that they formerly didn’t and now know at least 8 that they wish they didn’t. Now to find some geeks to slap some tagging on…

CharlVN – you’re IT oubie
Anthony Hazell – come on … we’d love to see the inside of your closet
Chris Rawlinson – it’s about time you wrote something
Paul Jacobson … a look at the wired works would be great

My apologies to those whom I have tagged that wished not to be and/or have been tagged by others … it’s not like I asked for this either, but let’s get to know you anyway.
