Time to Ketchup

By the way guys, this week is the week you can get anything you want done because people assume you are still off in the holidays and will leave you alone. I’m using this time to recover a bit from my sickness and to get a few projects set up for the new year. So if blog posts are light till the 1st, remember… I’m not dead, I’m ketchin up. err.. no wait.. I’m off on christmas vacation.. yea.. still.. till the 1st.

• Ketchup week

Social Networking will get you Every Time

The email you send to your boss because you want to go to that awesome party that your stupid job would otherwise obstruct your attendance of:

The picture you upload to Facebook, because Facebook rules your life and demands that you do so:

Then, because Facebook also rules the life of your coworkers, someone notices it and figures out that you really didn’t have a family emergency. He shows your boss, who chuckles and sends you this reply, with condemning photo attached, and bcc’d to the entire office:

Your coworker then, realizes that this is a blogging goldmine, sends this to valleywag, which results in the entire blogosphere reposting it and making you an example of how social networking destroys your privacy and the once foolproof “family emergency email.”

Look what I FFFFound!

Seriously, I didn’t fall asleep on the keyboard, thats just how this new joyful addition to my RSS reader is spellllt.

FFFFOUND! is social bookmarking… FFFFor images. In private beta at this moment, FFFFound! brings all the mind blowing photos and graphics from the web to their own little sanctum via people who would rather look at pretty pictures than read an article. ie. ME.

Better than the Best Pic Ever, this is a smorgasboard repository of all the BPE’s, complete with tasty javascripty bookmarklet ease of submission.

So far, all 350+ pages of images are truly stunning, with links to the img source as well as the page it was found on.

Here’s to them opening it up a little more, like enough to let me in to submit fractal goatse’s and shots of my cat with a waffle on his head.

Tagged- Pieces of Eight

Eh.. I haven’t done a meme in a while, and the wonderful Jeff from alreadybruised tagged me so here we go..

The Rules: List 8 things about yourself that no one may be aware of. At the end of the post, tag and link to 8 other people. Leave a comment at those sites, letting them know they’ve been tagged, and asking them to come read the post so they know what to do.

1. I have a unibrow - Not really ashamed of it.. just saying I do… a few people have told me its cute, and others to get a can of raid to kill the rabid caterpillar on my face… Angel plucks it for me from time to time…
2. I hate young gays - mebbe “hate” is a strong word, but any time spent around the young and dumb section of the queer clique reminds me whats wrong with us. I think we need a stronger group of more mature queers passing on essential life information to help em get out of that initial rut and onto making a mark in the world as a positive individual… granted I’m young too, but I had those older gay figures watching over me from day one.
3. I’m terrible at strategy games - either from inexperience or ADD, games that demand the player to think 20 steps ahead are nearly impossible for me to triumph in. mebbe after a few hundred hours of WoW, I’ll be better, eh Mike?
4. I’m horrible at taking care of myself - I’ll break my back for a friend to make sure he’s ok.. I’ll give you advice, cook ya food, but I can’t do it for myself. There is about 20 things I need to go to the doctor for, but I can’t muster the desire to go for myself. I won’t cook dinner beacuse its just me.. and the apt only gets cleaned when I can’t walk anymore.. my mental health takes a dive because I won’t go to get help. I essentially need one little pill to make it all better… but I won’t go… despite great Insurance
5. I have a speech impediment - I tend to speak fast and stutter.. It’s because my brain processes speech so fast that my mouth can’t keep up… If I try to talk slow.. my brain will trail off and I’ll sometime forget to finish a sentance… had this since I was a kid.
6. My drink is Jack and Redbull - tastes like tire rubber, but Joseph the bartender at Marcella’s got me hooked on this drink of my concoction… It keeps me awake at the club… So if you wanna buy me a drink at Marcella’s.. get that and go to Joseph.. For beer, get me a blue or a Heineken.
7. I don’t want an iPhone - yea yea, macboy like me, full o shit eh? Not really… It’s a great product, and I’ll be camping out next week with a friend so he can get one… but I need to wait a year for a 2nd Gen… and the eventual hop to T-mobile compatibility. It will come, I’ll be patient.
8. I’ve managed to work in every field I wanted to as a kid - ‘cept as a chef and a garbage man. But I’ve been a teacher, club worker, pro blogger, construction, cashier, IT guy, dancer, and have worked for a hotel. maybe one day I’ll do it all…

So I guess I’ll tag
