mascot costumes that have fewer than five fingers have been designed by people who understand that the best way to keep the corporate caricature from flipping off the public is to put their hands in strait jackets, this can lead to a great deal of momentary confusion for the mascot

Woolies has, for whatever reason, decided to include ‘frosty the snowman’ played in a minor key in their Christmas carol playlist. pretty sure it’s meant as a threat, and if it’s not, I'm taking it as one

Looking for Alibrandi is still so relevant despite being written nearly 30 years ago, the book and the movie are underrated considering the simply stated but devastating insights and conflicts discussed, I haven't read it since Highschool though, definitely time for a revisit

My current understanding of the Clive Palmer situation is that Clive was horny to get into WA, was told no, and is now throwing a billion dollar bitch fit and making it everyone else’s problem

kind of wanna yeet myself into an active volcano to see if it would have any impact on the next years harvest, and also for fun

year 11 or 12 algebra I was the only girl save for the teacher in a class of about ten, the boys all wanted to go into physics and engineering (subjects where knowing high-level maths made sense) and I wanted to go into psychology (statistics), I was basically there for fun and to up my ATAR, anyway one of the days during the section on trigonometric proofs we got a substitute teacher. we were working from textbooks while he was marking test papers when he looks up and asks me something (I don't remember), probably what's sine over cos (admittedly one of the more memorable things), hesitantly I give what I think is the answer, he asks again, I answer less hesitantly because I assume I was right the first time, he asks again and I answer again and then he says all smug like he's done a good “you won't be forgetting that any time soon” and goes back to marking. meanwhile I'm sitting there, a little confused and thinking I remember N O T H I N G. 

talking to one of the guys after class about it he seemed uncomfortable about the fact a teacher had tried to use humiliation as a teaching method, particularly since it was a fairly small school and everyone in the class had shared almost all their classes since year 8, and watching someone you know and don't hate get called out like that generally doesn't feel too good.

looking back on the situation, yeah I probably made a stupid mistake, but trying to use embarrassment to cement a fact into a students head was an equally stupid idea. all he did was interrupt a class, confuse and startle me, and make everyone else uncomfortable. like I don't even remember what he asked me, just the overall situation, and if the idea is to encourage more girls into male dominated fields of study, or boys into female dominated fields leaving them with a negative experience like that is probably not the way to do it

period product adds would make more sense if, instead of water they used soup.

why? 

both blood and soup are thicker and contain more chunks than water. 

you wanna impress me? you want me to buy your product? you wanna really concern the media and get them to market your stuff for free? 

S O U P

in the Scooby-Doo movie Scooby goes on the plane as an old lady. but. depending on whether Spooky Island was domestic or international Scooby would have needed photo id or a passport. what I wanna know is who tf is forging documents for Great Danes dressed as old ladies and where did Shaggy find them

I'm playing sims 4 and I scroll to the front of my house lot. there’s a gnome in a rabbit costume next to my letter box. weird but okay. I go back to watching my sim level up his skills on guitar for a bit, scroll back to the front of my house to check the rabbit gnome hasn’t moved. it hasn't. but. now there's a gnome dressed like the Grim Reaper IN MY HOUSE. the end is nigh I can feel it. these gnomes enjoy my confused suffering and will not stop until my sim is surrounded by tiny menacing cosplay gnomes. 

went back to check the death gnome and...

ARE IT’S EYES MEANT TO BE GLOWING? 

what in the ever loving fuck is this demon cursed game? 

science may never know, like how they won't know how I died and why there was a bloody demon gnome looming over my corpse despite no-one knowing where the fuck it came from, why it’s eyes are glowing or where the fuck it went. 

These fucking gnomes

I feel like I need to bake a cake

 I don’t know why, I don’t want to bake a cake 

I just feel the slight urge to bake a cake 

not even from scratch, the Urge wants a packet mix cake 

I don’t have any packet mix in the house 

I'd have to have a shower, get dressed, walk down to woolies, buy a box of cake mix and whatever else I need, walk back and then bake the cake 

I don’t want to do any of that

hopefully the Urge passes quickly

when I die I'm going back to the nothingness that spawned me.

anyone who expects me to exist in any capacity after my death is MISTAKEN

if you’re going to wander around the neighbourhood or screw around in the park at 11o’clock at night fine, I have no problem with that. but could you please respect the fact that my dogs are trying to sleep. 

it’s unfair that society expects me to tell my dogs to be quiet when the only reason they’re barking is people being loud and not letting them sleep.

 I would yell at the people but I'd rather not chance them getting pissy and fucking my shit up or kidnapping my dogs

YOLO and fuck it, I'm going to die anyway have such similar energies. I prefer the second though, more fuck it, more better

the intro song for The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends and the instrumental for Shoshone Love Song have a similar raininess to them, I can’t describe it any better than that, just that they feel rainy

I'm a genius, I just realised I can put my moisturiser in the fridge. I'll be moisturised and cool.
