I'm sorry for all the swearing, I'm just very pissed off about the internet situation.

I'm actually quite pissed off currently. I've had a shitty day because I was sick, and also my internet is still completely fucked.
Seriously what does it take to fix a problem that has been going on for 5 fucking days now? Seriously Netspace, get your act together, this is a god damn joke.

The hilarious part of the situation is that the god damn boffin-morons at Netspace have decided that the "issue" is resolved, and have taken down the ticket on their website. (For those of you playing at home; the ticket is the "notification" of the issue). So they seem to think it's fixed, so I sent the support team an angry email expressing my displeasure at the current situation. Hopefully my great-grandchildren will get a notification back saying what the problem is and (presumeably) that there is no E.T.A, because lets face it, that's what all tech companies say when they are just trying to fob you off.

The question you might be asking is "Why are you so handsome?". Wait - not that one guys the other question: "Why are you so worried about the internet being up? And aren't you posting this using the mighty interwebz right now?".

Those are two fantastic questions, I'll bet you stayed up all night thinking about them, so lets delve into the answers now:

Answer 1:

As with any nerd worth his salt, I like to play some games every now and then, of course. Currently with this ridiculous fucking 900ms to any gaming server (or just shit lag in general on Battle.net) I cannot do anything. I attempted to play a 4v4 yesterday in Starcraft 2 and it was an absolute joke. I was unable to do anything, and in true fashion I used that as my excuse as to why I was playing terribly. This has been incredibly frustrating for me with only 2 good biproducts; my house is clean, and also I've been able to do some SC2 commentaries (check out youtube.com/duckvillelol NOW!)

Answer 2:

Tonight (Aus time, I don't know what the fuck time it is in whatever country you're from) - an Aussie player will be competing in the GSL, which is going to be awesome. However because my net is fucked... I'm not going to be able to watch. This is going to piss me off to no end, namely because I've been talking up the matches and hyping up Moonglade (the player) more than the Bear has been talking up the NASL. So now that I'm going to have to watch the god damn vods it's going to lose half the god damn spectacle that it would normally have.

Thus why if Netspace don't get their act together, unfortunately I'm going to call and be one of those ranty fucking customers who doesn't shut the fuck up until they get like a 20$ credit or something.

Am I justified in this? I mean seriously - almost a week with this ridiculous 56k Dial-up speed internet? Surely I'm in my right to do that yeah? Whatever, I'm doing it. I'm just regretting that I'll probably have to waste about 45 minutes of my time sitting on god damn hold waiting for the support noobs to pick up the fucking phone.


So I'm currently cooking some dinner while I write, and lately this has become a bit of a challenge lately. I started doing the "Paleo" diet which is a bit of fun, google it if you don't know what it is, I really can't be bothered explaining it. Essentially: low/no Dairy/grains, esssentially if it's not something fresh/natural don't eat it, and as a secondary general rule: if it's in a box you probably can't have it.
Anyway, so it's getting annoying coming home to make dinner all the time, not to mention everything has to be fresh. I also have to make sure I have some meat out, and the problem part is defrosting it. I normally try and get the meat out the night before, but lately I keep forgetting, it's just starting to piss me off. Why aren't there easier ways to make proper dinners? Those microwave things are obviously out, so don't suggest that bullshit to me.
So, the question becomes; what are your favourite meals, and why? I'm interested to know, lately I've been having very static meals, boring kinda stuff unfortunately. I suppose that's downside, the upside is I've lost almost 3kg in 4 weeks, not too bad I guess.


Finally to the main thing I wanted to talk about; The stupid fucking StKilda football girl.
I am so sick to fucking death of this shit fucking story. It is incredible how long the media runs with this kind of shit, I mean sure, there were lewd photos, there was sex and drugs. There's not a smidgen of rock and roll though. So the story is therefore not that awesome, am I right?

Sure all of the players/whatever involved were fucking idiots to even be involved with this girl in the first place - but seriously, she has a ridiculous mental issue - and the whole fucking country and making a big deal of it - yet ironically not talking about her mental issues at all. She clearly needs some psychotherapy, or a kick in the head, because she's clearly just fucking up things for her future.

I for one vote for the kick in the head. But that's just me.

If you're not from Aus and have no idea what I'm going on about read here

Well that's all I can think of, obviously I'm still dying here with no fucking internet, and still missing my good friend to talk to, sadface.jpg.
