  • Babadi: My, what a lovely shade of green you are… After all, you’ve seen the power of Majin Buu…
    Piccolo: No, I always look this way. #
  • “that would allow a soldier to receive intelligence almost instantly from a picture snapped with the iPod” /facepalm http://bit.ly/wO5Oo #
  • In a Skype chat with @neg2led, @mattydee, @matt231, @matt_v… Missed out on the @shaun_r bag fest, though… :’( #
  • Just preformed the perfect question sidestep; vague enough to answer the orig question, but without going into any specific details. Win. #
  • Currently locked outside because I forgot my house key. Thank goodness for wi-fi internets and MacBook’s 3hr battery life. ^_^ #
  • Now for the 2 hour wait for my sister to get home from school. This shouldn’t be so bad… #

  • ZOMG! Goku just talked about FUSION in DragonBall Z!! 225 episodes in, and NOW they talk about Fusion?! Finally, sheesh! :D #
  • Also, ActionScript: please be simpler (or more like Java) so I can understand you :( kthxbai! #
  • This ActionScript is doing my head in. I haz a sad. :( #
  • Ha! Home time now. Pity there’s an ugly monster waiting at home for me – it’s name is ActionScript, and it is universally feared.. #
  • Today, I missed the bus that I wanted to catch by seconds. Now I have to wait 30 minutes for the next one. FML. #
  • Just registered for the UMAT 2009. I went completely balls last time – it was pretty bad :S Hopefully this time will be better. :) #
  • Respect for: @urusaipoppu, @neg2led, @zacislost, @tomricci, @bekkynixon, @adam_d, @benzoenator. #followfriday #
  • Craving KFC chips. That’s settled it – KFC it is for lunch, then. :) #
  • Hmm- at a musical without my glasses. Unless I get a good seat, this could be potentially problematic… #
  • I’m now 10% of the way through my 3000 word review of Left 4 Dead for Uni. Yes, I get to review games. ^_^ #
  • Bashing out this assignment. It’s almost unbelievable that I’m already 20% done. This will possibly be easier than I originally thought. #
  • I’m halfway through my 3000 word game review on L4D, and I haven’t even talked about half of the stuff I’m supposed to talk about… #
  • 66.66666667% of the way through my 3000 word L4D review. This is much easier than I thought, primarily because L4D is so completely awesome. #
  • And I’m done. I’ve written more than 3200 words, but there’s still so much more to say… Here’s hoping I don’t break the 4500 word limit. #
  • Dream Theater is excellent music to write long game reviews to. I kid you not. #fb #
  • Let’s try again. #3wordsaftersex #
  • Fine, that’s the last time I try and be humourous when tweeting a trending topic. The one I posted had already been posted like 6 times :’( #
  • Making the transition from blogging (first/second person perspective) to critical game reviewing (third person) is harder than I thought. #
  • RT @marcofolio I am in to win a premium WordPress Theme from FlashMint.com! Join this contest too: http://bit.ly/14pWQp . #
  • Watching Brothers and Sisters on TV. I frakking love this show… ^_^ #
  • Um… what? http://bit.ly/PKtmV Still, WANT :P #
  • This is the same bus I’ve been catching for the last 12 weeks, and only TODAY are there 1000x the normal amount of cute girls. /sigh. #
  • RT @thetruthuntold: Where the fuck is my visual voicemail Telstra! #
  • Just received what appears to be a legitimate email from the Commonwealth Bank – pity it’s to the wrong email address… Phishing? #
  • WTF – my sister’s MSN account seems to have been haxored – ha, serves her right. Either that or my Jabber server is having issues again. =/ #
  • I want a #promocode for Matches + Phases by @bjango http://is.gd/EtCl #iphone #
  • Epic Left 4 Dead game review is now completed. Final word count: 4,719 words in 44 paragraphs in 370 lines. 4571 spaces alone. :O #
  • What’s your most tweeted word? Mine’s “awesome”. Literally. :P http://words.elliottkember.com/bennyling #
  • Hmm. My #promocode saved search in Tweetie also picked up some promocodes for gay and straight porn… Er… DO NOT WANT! :S #
  • Not in class because it’s the end of the semester and that particular class has decided to end. No class makes Benny a bored boy. #
  • Standing in JB Hi-Fi wondering if I can afford The Unit Season 3 @ $56. Very, very tempted… #
  • Dropbox rocks harder than any other online file-sharing/storage service I know, (including iDisk) yet it doesn’t have a native iPhone app… #
  • Panic sale now on – http://www.panic.com/sale – I want Coda, but I probably won’t use it (I only bought Espresso because it was part of MacHeist). #
  • FB RT:
    PATIENTS NAME: Quality Music
    STATUS: Deceased
    CAUSE OF DEATH: Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus, High School Musical, etc. #
  • Last night was the first time I’ve had a solid 8 hours of sleep in a while. I’ve forgotten how good this feels ^_^ #
  • Just had to restart my iPhone because it wouldn’t respond to any input. Strangely enough, the Can Touch This podcast was still playing. #
  • Has finished Uni lectures for this semester and now only has exams to look forward to.. =\ #fb #
  • Actually, getting a little ahead of myself there… Completely forgot it was Thursday, not Friday. Ugh. =\ #fb #
  • Just bought Transmit + Candybar from Panic. It feels good to be going legit (with Transmit) – at those prices, I can actually afford to! :P #
  • Going for a drive for the first time in months. Hopefully I can get my Ps before semester two starts… #
  • Back from driving. Somehow managed to pick up my mum along the way – but what matters is that I’m THAT MUCH CLOSER to my Ps. ^_^ #
  • RT @Appilicious: $10 iTunes Giftcard Giveaway! You can enter by following @Appilicious and RT this. 1100 followers before announcing winner. #
  • Hah – just went to sign up for OCAU because their registration is completely anal, discovered that I already had an account… Lulz. #
  • New MacUpdate Promo now out – Parallels 4 and TechTool Pro 5 make it worth the $50 alone. http://www.mupromo.com/ #
  • Ideally, I’d love to go to sleep at 10:00 or earlier. It doesn’t look like that’s gonna happen, though – documentation can suck it. :’( #
  • Lonely Planet guide for San Francisco (iPhone) available for free! http://bit.ly/rkZeH @parisba @tonygray and all other WWDC attendees! :) #
  • Just completely borked my ActionScript project by renaming one file. Renaming it back doesn’t help either. It’s gonna be a long night, sigh. #
  • This is going to suck harder than the emptiness of space. I’m not even kidding. #
  • Awesome. Stopmotion. Music. (Youtube and MP3) http://bit.ly/WWKm0 http://bit.ly/JslNC @urusaipoppu, this is the original. :D #
  • Yeah, 5 hours sleep is enough. ¬_¬ #
  • Weather in Hobart completely blows today; it’s all rainy and stuff. My advice would be to stay inside if you can :) #
  • Just had a complete mind blank when ordering a bacon deluxe meal at Hungry Jacks. Blonde hair and blue eyes will do that to me… #
  • Er… Can I be bothered to read 4500+ articles in NNW? I think not. I’ll just have to mark most of these as read, then. :) #
  • Time for another edition of #stupidosxbugs: this time, Safari! Please don’t throw these kinds of errors. http://twitpic.com/6671i #
  • Fail tweet was completely full of fail – new one in a sec. #
  • Would like to know how I’m supposed to do things without having an example of how to do it properly in the first place. Please explain. #fb #
  • Hey ho, hey ho, it’s off to work we go… #singalong #
  • My ability to print seems to have been revoked. Well, not revoked – utterly destroyed is a more accurate description. #
  • ZOMG! I now have access to OCAU’s trading forum! CHEAP PC COMPONENTS BE MINE! MUHAHAHA! #
  • WOW. Hugely impressed with OCAU’s trading forum – fark, it’s like a PC geek’s wet dream come true! IT’S. SO. AWESOME. *drools* #
  • #navision is ugly. #
  • FFS AIM, please stop being all “Error: Serv:RequestTimeout” on me all of a sudden… :’( #
  • Currently playing some L4D with @urusaipoppu ^_^ #
  • Win a copy of Office Home and Student 2007! http://tr.im/o2007comp — to win just follow @BeauGiles and RT this message #o2007comp #
  • I take L4D far too seriously these days. Maybe it’s because I have some overachiever complex? Thanks to @urusaipoppu for pointing this out. #
  • I seem to have developed a hatred for Supertramp. It’s funny, because I loved them to bits roughly 6 months ago – now I hate them. =/ #
  • Finished driving. That wasn’t so bad now, was it? “Just keep driving straight” works quite well, I think. Better than expected, anyway. #
  • GREAT GALAXY! IF I KNOW MY ANATOMY, THAT LEADS STRAIGHT FOR THE SOUTHERN EXIT! – Vegeta, Dragon Ball Z, Episode 258. #
  • I’d love to piss away the rest of the evening on random WordPress stuff, but sadly there are these things called EXAMS. They suck a lot. -_- #
  • So now the question becomes – CSI New York, or 24? 24 starts 11 and NY at 10:30, so I think I’ll watch NY and then switch over to 24! #
  • Hmm. Maybe it’s not the best idea to be using a #WordPress theme that hasn’t been updated since 2005… Poor form, Mr Designer. :S #
