My three favourite men on British telly sharing the one stage.
And if you don't feel like clapping during the Steven Moffat's speech, you're a cyberman!

The rinse [May. 18th, 2012|03:20 pm]
Rinsing is really no different to what PUAs do. Both use social engineering and emotional manipulation to sell (false) love and receive money/sex in exchange from the opposite sex.

Where do I sign up to be a financial dominatrix?

Racist Australians [May. 13th, 2012|12:01 pm]
Just as I'm seething from his overt racism the other day, I come across this article in today's paper.

http://www.smh.com.au/opinion/society-and-culture/are-australians-racist-20120512-1yjcp.html

"About one in eight is avowedly racist. This compares with one in three in western Europe and one in five in the US."
"Many of us with concerns usually express them in terms of national identity, cultural groups who don't or won't ''fit in''. But racist attitudes are uneven. In cities such as Sydney or Melbourne, many older people, especially in areas of major contact, are very tolerant. Yet some better-educated people in Sydney's north and north-west are less so."

Kinda describes him really.

The awful truth [Apr. 22nd, 2012|06:47 pm]
It's bad enough that women get paid less than men for doing the same work, get less recognition, are cockblocked from some professions (like being the Chief of Army), and have to choose between their career or family.  Now, there is also this for women who try to fight back at the patriarchal hegemony. 

Why women lose the dating game: http://www.smh.com.au/opinion/society-and-culture/why-women-lose-the-dating-game-20120421-1xdn0.html

I think the sisterhood should band together and not marry or date any men who are ten years or greater than them.

Boom - Anjulie [Apr. 10th, 2012|11:50 pm]
I can't believe that this song has been around since 2009. How did I miss this? I'm not 17 or 23 anymore but I still feel like this. Boom boom

A system biased towards douchebags [Apr. 3rd, 2012|06:16 pm]
Which brings me to a new startling self-discovery. I may have a lot of flaws (idealist, naive, lazy, crazy etc) but one noun no one will ever use to describe me is 'douchebag'. That's why douchbags and I clash so spectacularly.

Want go graduate from the FAC and become army officer? Become a douchebag. No, seriously. Douchebags ALL pass the course. If you're not a douchebag and got through, then you're a jolly fine fellow and we'd probably be good friends.

I have no patience for douchebags these days.

my new Chanel eyelash curler [Mar. 23rd, 2012|01:09 am]
I was weak, I caved, I bought myself a Chanel eyelash curler from (gasp) an Australian department store. ($42)

It's limited edition, fits my eye better than my trusty Shiseido and much better than the popular Shu Uemura.

I'm going to retire or give away the Shiseido and use the new Chanel until my next trip overseas so I can get the Le Metier Beaute eyelash curler - which apparently is the shame curvature as Chanel but longer.

So why this ridiculous obsession with eyelash curlers? I'm sick of the Shiseido being not wide enough grabbing all of my lashes, the ones at the outer corners.
