Overheard....

For those who know what mX is, you might be like me and flip to the back pages of the newspaper to the 'Overheard' section. It's quite good for a laugh!

Examples from mX, 13 September 2010.

Boy 1: "What is dyslexia?"
Boy 2: "Dyslexia is a severe form of dementia"

or

Girl 1: "Oh no, I've spilt tomato sauce on my shirt."
Girl 2: "You better wash it with wet water"
Girl 1: "Wet water? Yeah, I've tried dry water and it never works"

Others include:

Girl 1: "He's so weird"
Girl 2: "Maybe he has ACDC or something"

Boy: "It was so cold, and I was wearing only a T-shirt and a thong"
Girl: "A thong?"
Boy: "Oh wait, no, thongs! I swear I said thongs"

Eurovision

This was a while back...

I was watching Eurovision with my sister (who had the remote, I had no choice but to watch it) and the last country to perform came up on screen. There was a short clip of people cheering and a massive flag of Turkey came up on screen. My sister looked at it and yelled out:

"OH.. MY... GOD... I CAN'T BELIEVE CHINA IS ON EUROVISION!!!"

A Just Plain Stupid Video

Just admit it - whether you like it or not, we all do stupid things.

Music: Calvin Harris - Neon Rocks

Maths, Maths, Maths

I was in a senior maths class when this utterly shameful and stupid moment happened:

A mate of mine walked up towards the table, ready to hand in his work and yelled out to me “Hey Jeff, what’s 2x8 again?”
I really should of paid attention but didn’t (distracted by the my work and by others in the room) and yelled out with the fullest of confidence “Oh yeah, its 12”

Half the class turned, looked at me and just shook their heads (probably in shame) while my friend just said “Ok”, wrote down the answer and handed his work in.

Hmm and I’m studying to be a teacher.....

Alpha Kenny Body

Now say the title again - out loud. And again. A little faster. Did you get it?

A friend of mine messaged me this video on youtube the other day, where youtuber KevJumba plays a little mental game with his father. Made my day :)



Now why not go and try it on someone? See how long it takes till they get it!

'Single Ladies Gone Wrong'

I have always wondered why there was so much hype for Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” song and especially the video clip. The video clip, judged as Video of the Year 2009 (...cue in Kanye West to disrupt this blog if I were to suggest otherwise...) has been seen by thousands, not if millions of viewers around the world.

Probably should not confess to this but I have actually seen the original video clip. I won’t judge that people dancing in front of a camera is refreshingly original but what has resulted is really fascinating and ‘Just Plain Stupid’. Take this video for example by those on YouTube mocking Beyonce and Co’s dance moves:

Even Justin Timberlake had the guts to perform a parody on NBC’s Saturday Night Live and there is a much worse parody from an overweight man dancing to this song in a leotard, surprisingly with 13.1 million viewers. Watch if you dare!

While somehow linked to this video clip is another, which just made me 'LMAO'. (Poor girl, I hope she recovered!)

Work Uniform!!!

I would have to say out of the week, Thursdays are my busiest day - I go to uni from 10am-3pm and then there is an hour drive to Penrith, followed by work from 4pm to 9.30pm. So naturally, I have to pack all my work clothes and bring them to uni with me for work. Well not yesterday......

What's worse, I didn't realize until I got to work, an hour away from where I live...and just my luck, the only spare uniforms were the girls uniform.
