The other day, former co-worker asked me for advice on how to deal with a difficult situation at work. Apparently I am regarded as “wise” in some circles. As this person was still stuck in the worst workplace I have ever suffered through, I thought the problem would be pretty dramatic. As it turns out, [...]

Australia Day
I had a really lazy Australia Day weekend. The most active thing I did was lots of barbecuing, like a good little Aussie. So here’s some cooking tips from me along with some general musings on the day:
And just in case any international readers are wondering what Australia Day marks, here’s [...]

Angry Brother
So I’ve decided to have my own “reality” video show. Mainly because my head is crowded with all these creepy characters who manifest themselves in videos wearing masks. I need to vote a few of them out of my head. The plan of action was basically my daughter’s – she started off by suggesting “Angry [...]

Nanna Jelly Love
The man you see in the video still above is comedian Ross Noble and this post is designed to mess with his head. Ross is a very funny performer and anyone who has seen him will tell you he has absolutely astounding improvisational skills. He’s in Australia for the Melbourne International [...]

Elevator etiquette
I’m back working in a multi-storey office building for the first time in years which means having to use the elevator multiple times a day. I have to tell you, I’m astounded how many people simply don’t know how to use a lift effectively. Because I like to help (really because I like to vent [...]

Story time – Mr Angry and the cops
Given some people thing there is not much distinction between the character of Mr Angry and my real personality, what do you think is the most extreme thing I’ve done to a cop?
Has anyone done anything more extreme than that and gotten away with it?

Cory Delaney, party boy, is an idiot. The media are BIGGER IDIOTS
Sadly, this travesty of a non-story seems to have travelled around the world. A 16 year old is allowed to “stay with friends while his mum and step dad go on a holiday. Nothing should go wrong because he’s sternly told “no parties”. Yeah, that’ll work. The inevitable happens and the kid organises a party.
Except [...]

What makes me angry? The people!
One of my earliest inspirations for this blog was a former co-worker who had a hilarious way of expressing her frustration with stupid people by simply going “The people! The people!” OK, maybe I’m easily amused. But she was a New Yorker and that sounds really funny in a New York accent.
I’m actually working on [...]

Nude lesbian bikini beach babe orgy!
I swear it’s true! In the crowd scene just off to the left I’m sure I saw a lesbian orgy going on. OK, I’ll tell the truth: I’m just trying to wind up the porn seekers (search result that lead to this blog continue to weird me out).
This video is really about promoting [...]

Really angry about copyright
So yet another example of how fucked the current situation with copyright is surfaced on YouTube again this week. As someone who creates original content (even if I’m not making money from it) I get really pissed off when someone steals my content. From my perspective, stealing includes someone taking my work, reproducing it elsewhere [...]
