Not something that is really making me happy, more simply amusing me.

There is, at the moment, a veritable shitstorm going on in the skeptics movement feminism and sexual harrassment (sexual harrassment is bad, mkay)

The level of vitriol and mudslinging is getting so intense that it is actually becoming increasing difficult to distinguish the two sides from eachother.

I find it highly amusing, also a little sad actually, but mainly it's just highly amusing.

EDIT: Btw, if anyone should be interested in checking it out, by all means, go ahead. Only, don't bring it back here. What I'm trying to say is, don't kill the forum please!

VAN FUCKING HALEN!!

WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER HOW AWESOME EDDIE VAN FUCKING HALEN IS!!!

PANAMA!!!!!!!!!

If you didn't guess it already, I saw Van Halen last night and they were awesome.

Kool and the Gang was surprisingly entertaining as well.

Wait wait wait....you saw VAN HALEN....and fucking KOOL & THE GANG opened for them?

Where did you get your time machine and can I borrow it?!

It's not a time machine, it's a retro-wave onslaught of 80s'ish performers tour together... (i know, i know, ...Van Halen... but still....)...

I was recently invited to go see the Loverboy / Pat Benatar / Journey concert.

No, seriously.

I discovered the trigger lock on my weedeater. Makes operating it a lot easier.

I've only owned the damn thing for two years. Yes, I am slow on the uptake.

OK, I think I got it, but just in case, can you say the whole thing over again? I wasn't really listening.

I'm currently suffering a major allergic reaction to something. The brightside is the medication has such a sedative effect that I have spent the last 12 hours sleeping XD

I bought a house!

Equal amounts excited and nervous.

Settlement won't happen for a few weeks though cause they still need to have the tile issued by the council.

At least you didn't buy a Jeep

My brother was at the pub last night and noticed a group of guys harrassing a girl who was clearly uncomfortable and uninterested so he went over and said something along the lines of 'Listen mates I think you should leave the lady alone' at which point one of the blokes, totally unprovoked, took a swing at my brother. He sidestepped it and promptly had some other guy smash down on his arm breaking it. My brother fell to his knees, got up and was seriously fucked off and I'm guessing the guys realised it because my brother only managed to punch one guy to the ground, with his less dominate hand, before the others ran off.
The girl was really shaken so my brother ordered a cab and took her home before going home himself.

I'm pretty damn proud of him XD

On Friday my forced No-Alcohol for Two Weeks is up. Mrs. QT pledged to give up alcohol for two weeks to lose the extra daily calories before heading off on a cruise with her family for the next two weeks, and I joined her in support so I would not be drinking around her and making her wish to drink as a result. As of Friday night I am free to consume the beer and wine again.

Funny sidenote: She gave up about two days in to her pledge. I stuck to my guns / willpower and have gone without for nearly two weeks.

Ten years and counting, mate. Let me tell you, it's not worth it. Alcohol is your friend and should be consumed all day, every day.

Legalise drugs! And murder!

My boss is awesome. Need the night off work? All available leave slots taken? That's OK, we'll get someone to come in on their day off and cover. What? No-one is available to do that? Oh, well, in that case...do you want to work the day shift? Then just take the night off, no annual leave needs to be used.

I should point out, this is the day shift I was already going to work anyway and my boss asked it really surreptitiously.

On the downside: tomorrow is the last day where I have awesomeBoss. Next week is annual team rotations. *sigh* Though newBoss should be OK; everyone at my work is pretty cool.

Boss-love is disgusting to mine eyes, hie thee hence, knave!

HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.

Met big Stevo tonight. Lovely chap.
I actually talked to HIM personally during a smoke break, and kissed his arse a bit. REALLY cool.
Heard a reading from The Forge of Darkness (apparently one of the first to do so, he told me!) and bought a signed copy of The Wurms of Blearmouth as well as getting my TCG hardback signed.
All in all a great night and thoroughly worth the 6 hr round trip.
Top kudos to my brother in law who accompanied me, having not read any of the books, just to keep me company. Top bloke also.

Nice.

There can only be one top bloke, Solid. I'm afraid you're going to have to choose between them.

Three hours to go until it's a long weekend (happy Canada Day!), I'm going out to supper with the family tonight and I may be going to the waterslides either Saturday or Sunday. Dammit but I do love me some waterslides! All I need is a grape popsicle and I swear I'd be feeling like I'm 12 years old again.
