# 22 - Gargoyles and Deoderant.

Those were the first to things that came to mind when I looked around my room.

Huzzah for year 11 ceramic gargoyles!
Huzzah for Deoderant!
Huzzah for Uni assessments!
... actually
Non-Huzzah the Uni assessment one.

God this looks to be a really gay semester. Damn ridiculous assessments.

I hate being poor.
I need more money but I don't have time for another job, cause I smell.
Maybe if I dedicated my time to not writing in this blog I could get a job.......
NAAAAA

w3rd.

Thought #2 - Weird things only people will lots of money people will have.

There are up-coming products that are in development and will be/already is on sale.
Here's the first one:


This seems useful... [/sarcasm]


Now apparently this connects to the Net and burns the weather, news, pictures on your toast.
Why, in gods name, is this useful?
Oh, yeah, because no-one puts anything on their toast in the morning, they have plain bread, and they'll take MORE time to cook the toast in the Net-Computer toaster rather than doing it like a normal person. If this is SUPPOSED to save time, they've failed.

So sexy

This just has "fail" written all over it. I mean, even the kid himself is probably dying a little inside just looking at the advertisement.
Good god.
Though it kinda makes me want one. All I have is Charles. The lone hair on my chest. Gordon got ripped out =( =(

Only in Japan

I seriously think this picture speaks for itself, but i'll say it anyway.
THAT DOES NOT LOOK COMFORTABLE!


The caption says it all. This is just ridiculous.
Whoever buys this product is an even bigger idiot than the person who invented it.

I mean, c'mon, is this the age we're entering?

*A Mule won't sink in quicksand but a donkey will*

Hooroo all!

I actually have the book that the Japanese picture came from, it's a book of "chindogu", which refers to inventions that are completely useless.
Great stuff, man.
