    Didn't she die? I dunno.



    Anyway, remember that cyclist hitting tweet girl from a few days ago? Yeah, still face-palmingly stupid.

    She's sorry alright...

    Sorry she got caught. There is no real apology there, just sounds like someone is trying to save her job... saying oh well, this is all social medias fault, it was a stupid thing to say etc.. What about the stupid thing you DID that could have killed a man? No apology for that.

    <doh>

    The first instinct of any decent person would be to stop and get help for someone you hit. Anyone who would go on line crowing about it is just a vacuous waste of skin. She is only sorry for herself.

    She didn't feel the need to stop because apparently the cyclist deserved it... she had right of way cos cyclists don't pay road tax.

    Unbelievable that a company actually hired her as junior accountant.

    Just as I'm legally entitled to kill hobos and steal their bindles because they don't pay income tax.

    It's Memorial Day weekend. They aired an episode on the same day last year and it lost about half a million viewers, so this time they're just skipping a week.

    As for the nudity rebel, it definitely won't be Emilia. I have a suspicion it's the actress who plays Shae because she used to be a porn star and I think she wants to distance herself from that.

    I've just found the best Firefox add-on in the history of mankind...

    It's let me block myself from every single website in the world between 9am and 9pm, apart from our Uni internal server, save for 10 minute breaks every hour and the odd break for lunch/dinner. So yeah, naturally Not606 didn't make the unblocked list <laugh>

    I think it might be the site actually. My last comment took ages to post.

    That was the shirt of Union Murphy, the Argentinian 5th division side - from the hometown of Gazzaniga, known as Murphy.

    They're traditionally a farming community. They're a small town. Both Gazzaniga and Pochettino hail from there.

    Definitely one of the most rewarding. There's nothing better than when someone stumbles to explain the bag-on-stick-for-hobos concept and you can triumphantly interject that it is called a bindle, because the face of the other person in the conversation will light up as if you gave them a puppy, because they know that they too can now triumphantly tell others what it is called.

    Or perhaps this is only my experience. And perhaps that is because I have many more opportunities for this sequence to play out than the average person, what with the hobo killing and bindle-stealing.

    While it is an epic fail, to be fair, I did manage to get an interview with that CV before. Also, apparently they have a hardcopy in the HR department which they've printed out and written on so you'd have thought they would have noticed (as would the people who interviewed me before) and had they noticed, you'd have thought they would have said something, especially as I'm pretty friendly with one of the HR people. Obviously it's my own mistake and I'm fully to blame for missing the error I completely recognise that, but it's just like telling your mate that he's flying low or something.

    Technically the person I sent it to is on leave until Tuesday, there's another contact I know in HR but I don't know her as well but was thinking of e-mailing her tomorrow if I don't hear anything.

    ----

    In other news, I got a phone call from O2 saying I'm eligible for an upgrade (then my signal dropped out as I was on a train, irony....), so guys which Sony Ericsson Xperia model should I get?
