Computer > Life

Now is the time for all my friends to roll their eyes in agreement, when I point out that I have a Computer addiction.



Now I like to *think* I am not one of those often talked about 'losers' that sit glued to their computers in their mom's basements sipping mountain dew and begrudgingly taking toilet breaks...
 
but I am pretty damn close.

Somehow, in between Trolling the webz, playing Sims, WoW, Facebook Apps, And the odd old school game, I have actually managed to get married, have kids and squeeze a job in somewhere too.
But I'll be totally honest, if I could plug myself in to a computer and live vicariously through Sims or something similar.. I wouldn't hesitate for a second!



So what is so addictive? do our computers pump out gaseous forms of crystal meth?
Does the loading screen have hidden, hypnotic trance inducing methods? What keeps us playing Bejeweled for hours? or making babies on Sims. Why do I spend so much time on a badly made Farming application or cleaning pets on Pet Society? I hate farming, I hate cleaning.. wth is wrong with me?



Maybe it is because we are rewarded with such fanfare for smallest of achievements..  lets face it, in the real world, most people just don't give a crap!
Maybe it is the ability to be someone different, or be strong at something - when in life we feel a bit lackluster.
Maybe it is that a whole world is at our fingertips, meeting new friends, doing new things, without even leaving the house...
(starting to sound like a computer advertisement now!)



Probably it's all these things, but for me, the most important one is I get to be a kid again.. I can play house, dress ups, give makeovers, I can decorate houses, play with cute animals, shoot enemies, play board games, have special powers.. and no one is laughing! Also I can do it all on my own, I don't need FRIENDS, I MAKE friends, I feed them, clothe them, entertain them, and when I get bored I stick em in the pool and take the ladder out :D




Sometimes I wish life was a bit more like my computer..
But then a sticky little person climbs on my knee and says "I lub oooo mommy!" & I realize I couldn't give that up for the world :] <3

Neither hair nor there.

~~~~10 haircuts I can't stand!~~~~

Apologies if any of you have these :P

1) The Mullet

Pretty much the worst haircut in history. 

2) The Over-the-top Fro

Seriously.. can you even fit through doorways with that thing?

3) The Bowl

My son's latest hair cut slightly resembles this.. oops.

4) The Comb-over.

Have hair, or be bald. Donald Trump can't pull off the comb-over nor can you!

5) This is what I like to call the Dyke Cut.

Not the worst of the bunch, but its popularity with middle aged woman and the girly hair clips often teamed with it, is its major downfall.

6) The Fringe

 

Wildly popular in the 90's with anyone deemed as 'cool' - this haircut is definately one of the worst, luckily I have only ever seen it on young boys, If I ever saw an adult with one I'd be tempted to face punch!

7) Lopsided

WTF, do you think that makes you cool? OCD people worldwide will hate you forever. You look like your barber was on crack.

8) The rat-tail

Your a douchebag. nuff said.

9) The under cut.

This only looks hot on goth/punk chicks
The rest of you look like 10 year old boys. 

10) The 'Almost Bald' 

 Okay I have to say, THIS is probably the worst. It's like a mullet, rattail, upside down fringe. It is an abomination!

ARGH if you can't choose a haircut pleasing to the eyes shave it all off! ALL off.
THE END

f%$@ off he's mine!

Lately I started watching Vampire Diaries.. this is one of many programmes I have become obsessed with.
Regardless of bad scripting/acting some shows just tickle your fancy, and satisfy your girlish fantasies.

Yes I know twilight was bad, but hey, we get tired of  trying to dream up our own cheesy love stories.. so why not have someone do it for you?

It just cracks me up how possessive we get over certain characters..
(cue dreamy vampirish male)

Things are said.

Names are called.

Friendships broken.

Alliances formed.

Broken..

Tears are shed..

and then..

Alliances Reformed.

& all over a guy or fictional character we will never meet!
WHY? because these characters were tailor made for us, they cover all the essential categories..

Looks, charm, wit, passion, romance, loyalty.. how can we resist?
Each and every one of us feel like they were made just for us, like they stepped out of our heads and onto the screen. 
Of course it's cheesy, of course it's lame.. we invented it! and we love it :P

Intellectual movies are for thinking..
Soppy lame movies are for feeling.

Don't even get me started on scary movies!... save that for another blog ;)

Ps: (Damon's mine!)

Plotting Mantises!

So as most of my friends may know I LOATHE PM's.. I think from the title you have guessed what a PM is, and to be honest I just don't want to have to type that word more than necessary! drawing these ABOMINATIONS is hard enough!

Anyway... I am often mocked for my fear of these insects, obviously the mockers's  have not done their homework! 

So here it is. 
TEN REASONS WHY PRAYING MANTISES ARE EVIL!

1) They look like something out of alien versus predator! Shit it shoulda been Praying Mantis vs Predator.. or Alien vs Praying Mantis vs Predator ... PM would win hands down, *chomp* there goes Aliens head, *CHOMP* Predator your DEAD!
Horror movie about PM's... fricken terrifying! 

2) They have the excorcist thing going on! I saw one at work the other day and it's head did a full 180 to look at me... I EAT YO BAYBEES! ... seriously.. it said that >.>

3) They named a fighting stance after it.. that alone is PROOF they are deadly!
(Chinese: 螳螂拳; pinyin: tánglángquán; literally "praying mantis fist")

4) They bite. Don't dispute this, I have been bitten and I refuse to believe otherwise!

5) THEY BITE EACH OTHERS HEADS OFF AFTER SEX! okay, so only the female will bite the males head off.. which could say something about females too, but ... THEY BITE EACH OTHERS HEADS OFF AFTER SEX!

6) They have MILLIONS of babies. I am sure this is an attempt at world domination. I will not accept any other explination!

7) There you are just strolling down your hallway, or a nice garden path and *whiiiiiiiirft* IN YO FACE! ... be careful, if the PM makes its target it will do either 4 or 5!

8) DEATH STARE.. have you ever looked a praying mantis RIGHT in the eyes?

9) Their name is decieving! who PRAYS? priests, monks, little children before bed? They are leading you to believe they are just talking to God, asking for a little more sunshine or a nice juicy bug, but what they are REALLY doing is plotting evil deeds! they should be called Plotting Mantises!

10) Because I said so.. and that is reason enough!
