A horse sneezes and an industry catches the flu

Strange goings-on in Australia this week.  An outbreak of horse flu (more properly known as equine influenza) has shut down the horse racing industry.  This may not sound like a big deal but horse racing (or more specifically, the attendant betting) is a big deal in Australia.
Aussie are mad for gambling.  The old saying is [...]

Zombie Pride

It seems like every special interest group in the world spends a lot of time expressing their “pride”.  I figured it was time zombies got in on the act. 
This video was actually inspired when fellow YouTuber SeanBedlam did a video entitled “Stupid people are dumb“.  In the description for the video, he wondered “As awash [...]

Project Management on the Titanic

One good way to highlight how stupid “accepted wisdom” can be is to transpose the situation into a different setting and see how ridiculous it looks.  This week I’ve been imagining software project management being applied on the Titanic.  Because the project I’m working on hit a big fucking iceberg.
The basic situation is the company [...]

I told you I was sick

I haven’t had as much energy as usual lately due to my previously mentioned illness.  My efforts with both blog posts and videos have suffered as a result.  I offer up this video as proof I’m not faking it:

Top seven angry weight loss tips

I noticed I’m putting on a little weight.  The first spring blossoms are appearing now so I need to take some action to be in better shape for summer.  I used to be on the upper end of the “husky” scale but I managed to lose 25kg.  So I know about weight loss.
Here’s Mr Angry’s [...]

A pseudo war on drugs

I’m sick as a dog this week which is why I haven’t been posting much.  I’m propped up with pseudoephedrine at the moment which is successfully suppressing the symptoms but has my body sending me weird signals.  My lungs feel really dry which is better than full of phlegm but it feels unnatural.  Tsunamis of [...]

The biggest lie ever told

One of my YouTube pals, known as JustA11en, made a video he titled “The biggest lies ever told”.  He sent me a message suggesting I respond.  Apparently he thought I might have an issue with liars.
He was right.
I had so many ideas about the biggest liars in the world my brain was buzzing for a [...]

Bloggerman saves the day

Like most bloggers, I suffer from the delusion that my writing actually means something.  In the bigger picture, I mean.  As in, I’m going to change the world.  While thinking about this I started to imagine a blogging superhero in full spandex-wearing, underpants-on-the-outside glory.  Hence, “Bloggerman”.
I like the idea of being a superhero but all [...]

Milestones

If someone had asked me a year ago did I think I’d be posting 400 videos to YouTube I would have said “Of course not, do I look that stupid?” Well, apparently I am that stupid. I never would have imagined that I’d get so much enjoyment out of putting so much work [...]

Goodbye Freedom

It isn’t as if I want to encourage armed insurrection but seriously, why the fuck aren’t Americans rioting in the streets?  How far does this shit have to go?
Americans may need passports to board domestic flights or to picnic in a national park next year…
