Things I hate today

  • People who put their fucking babies in photos with them on Facebook, particularly when they make it their profile picture. Sure you may think that your new kid is the best baby of all time and the future saviour of the human race; but it isn’t. Get over it. Move on.
  • People who use @username as a convention for addressing someone on an online forum or blog. You don’t talk at people you talk to them, or better still with them.
  • The fucking government for blocking, with regulation, the sale of AKL. The government as an institution, be it labour or national, has to learn to play by the same rules as everyone else. If you don’t want strategic or important New Zealand assets sold overseas, buy them. This way shareholder value isn’t regulated down and we all get to share in those assets as New Zealanders, for ever and ever.

    Okay, okay, I pretty much only hated the last one but this is going to stand and be linked back to in future. It isn’t all about the now you know.

    Oh dear Sam,

    Are you having a bad day or what !!
    I felt I had to leave you a message as I find it hard to believe that I get more comments on my cool cool Glenglen than you do but it did wonders for my wee ego {wee ,yeah right, ]!!
    Hope the rest of your week goes well and that no one else would dare include a photo of their baby on Face Book.
    I am on my way to pick up Nath .He’s working up here for the rest of the week and I am so looking forward to seeing him.
    You look after my wee girl.

    Love Glen

    Glen my week is actually okay. There are some cool things going on at work; although your lovely daughter was working until nearly midnight last night (poor thing). The upside may mean we both get to be kept in the manner in which we are accustomed.

    This post is me playing around with voice, I am determined to be able to call a spade a spade here, as well as making it an informative and interesting place to interact in.

    HAHA great to have you here Che, and the @username is a pet hate and not directed at any one instance…

    I have been going on and on about it for some time.

    Pleased you have. I am not big on politics or religion; although, having said that, am probably going to be pushing a barrow that is a bit of both.
