“Blood… blood… blood… blood”

on a precursory-side-note, which you never previously imagined to be a ‘thing’. it seems that Douglas Adams used the ‘Heart of Gold’ to be in every part of the universe, including my mind in this current time, to write Hitch-Hikers Guide. i love it. he is truly mental.

if you are uncertain what the hell the subject of this is blog entry is about, i am almost compelled to NOT tell you, as the introduction to this blog should explain it well enough, as it is most likely not due to my own personal blood-lust… however, i shall entertain your ignorance and enlighten you this once with an excerpt from a rather funny book:

“Ford carried on counting quietly. This is about the most aggressive thing you can do to a computer, the equivalent of going up to a human being and saying Blood… blood… blood… blood…”

if that does not make you laugh. it is probably due to a lack of context… you should know that ‘only by counting can humans demonstrate their independence from computers’… you probably should also read the book. if you still do not laugh, you should check, because i imagine you are missing something – YOUR SOUL!

tangent 1: topicthathasbeendonebeforebutnotbyme… writing ‘blood…’ a total of 8 times meant that, as it often does in similar situations, the word completely lost meaning… first my mind started to emphasize the ‘ood’ and then i wasn’t reading about vein juice at all… and it got me thinking

does this phenomenon have a NAME? because i think it should. like a ‘Freudian slip’ or ‘the northern lights’ or ‘earthquakes’… i believe this is such an actual thing, that somebody should be able to say ‘whoa… that word just _________’ or something.

somebody help me name this thing. i am happy to name it after myself or douglas or something if you require. OR if you can give me a link to some psychology website that has already named it, i will write about it later…

oh the possibilities.

next tangent: every time I write a new blog entry, I use these horizontal line thingies to separate thoughts… the dumb this is… i consistently forget the html for it… so next time, remind me>

<hr>

that is all…
seriously…
anybody got any BETTER divider suggestions?
i use it most weeks and I still forget:

<hr>

moron.

tangent that is most favoured in my eyes: i normally try not to waste blogging space by talking about stuff that is happening to me. it is rare that more than six people in the universe would be interested in something so trivial, however…

suck it up and read it populace:

– i have a new job
– i’m going back to uni
– that all came together in less than one week
– God is awesome

now in summarised form, this may not seem NEARLY as substatial and life changing as it actually is, but, please, apply any emphasis or additional text to those four bullet points until you understand that this is more than massive.

or, just talk to my parents…

re-enactment:

“OH MY GOODNESS HE IS RETURNING TO STUDY WHEEEEEEE”

<10 x more flailing>

this week, for my extract from another blog, in the wake of technical feats like apple (my favourite) iSanitaryLiner… i thought i would post something incredibly un-technical.

Cookie posted this article about Spot The Tiger.

web polls are ordinarily boring as hell… “who thinks George Lucas is ruining all our lives and eating all the steak Y/N”.

but these guys use PICTURES… a technique made famous by children’s books and newspapers, and done with immense style in ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas’.

not only that, but the pictures, some of them at least, are created by some incredible individuals. example:

i don’t necessarily agree with ALL of the results… but the images make it compelling…

anyway… its interesting
also interesting, if you can be bothered reading through endless figures… is Nicholas Felton’s Annual Report. who would have thought that graphs and statistics could look so good? jump on his site so you can actually READ it

sorry Cookie for ripping off your blog 😛
