James -expletive- Cameron

I’m looking for a hard to find relay board that uses the parallel port on a PC. Whilst searching I found this:

“K74 Kit 74 PC Printer Port Relay Board

…Linux software for Kit 74 has been written by James Cameron. You may get it at Quozl’s Open Source Work.”

WHAT THE SHIT?

I’m sure it’s not the James Cameron we all love so much. But just… What.

Insurance

So it turns out that unless you’re over 25, motor vehicle insurance is the biggest load of horse shit ever.

Basically I have to pay a $950 excess even though my car is a write off, for no other reason than I’m under 25.

Because we all know that everyone under 25 is a hooligan.

Here is something else that sucks; I spoke with a person from QBE on the phone about my claim (which is routine I guess) and she was all like:

Lady: Have you had a speeding fines in the last 5 years?
Me: Yes, one.
Lady: OK we need a copy of your traffic infringements from the police.

And blah blah blah, so I found out how to get this; went to a police station and got it. It cost 21.05.

So I faxed it off so they could get on with my claim. Then a few days later, I get another call.

Lady (a different one): We need traffic convictions too.
Me: But I don’t have any… and you didn’t tell me that before.
Lady: Lol sry.

So then I went to the police station again, and got that report. It cost another 21.05.

Now the market value of my beloved rave car is $1200 – $2700 (though my car has done many less kilometers than what that figure is based on).

I am almost certain they will pay me $1200, which, after subtracting the excess and cost of those reports comes to a whopping:

$207.90!!

Woah! That’s so much money!

Not really worth all the trouble I’ve had to go through for this claim. I think when I get my new car I will only bother with third party insurance until I am 25.

Far out.

If I do get this amount, I’ll probably call QBE and complain loudly about how my car had only just done 131313km (I even have a photo of it!) and was air conditioned and in pretty much amazing condition.

It drove up a God damn MOUNTAIN.

Sigh.

Wallet

Wow, I am amazed at how bad a week-and-a-bit I am having.

Today my wallet was stolen.

Now I have no car, and no wallet.

It’s as if someone was like “Hey man, you’re having too good a time with life; I’mma shit all over you!”.

Ahhh, things could be worse. At least I haven’t been shot in the face. And at least I can still laugh about it a bit.

And at least I have my favourite person in the world <3

Crashes

This is my beloved car. I crashed it yesterday afternoon at about 5:45PM.

And that, is horse shit.

I actually still have heaps to write about (buses and what not!)

I will make an honest effort to set aside time to write up these articles!

I will miss you, little rave car!

Twilight

So I suppose it’s inevitable that a shitblog will eventually have some sort of post on Twilight.

If you haven’t heard of Twilight, youve probably been living under a rock the past few years.

I watched the 2 movies last night with my friends and I don’t know what we were thinking. We all hate it, but we thought it’d be funny to watch the two movies and laugh at how hilariously bad it is.

I’m actually cracking up right now because I can just remember Cam’s “hey, found a guy who’s wearing a shirt over there, let’s beat him up!” dub over Jacob’s shirtless wolfpack brother on the beach…ahhhh you had to be there.

But yeah. Watching the two movies really takes the life out of you. It is thoroughly exhausting dealing with all that teenage, vampire angst.

Seriously, how do people like this franchise? How did Stephanie Meyer get so popular from this series!?!?

I also found out yesterday that not only did Edward watch Bella sleep at night for months, he OILED THE HINGES ON HER WINDOW and SAT STARING AT HER IN THE CORNER IN A ROCKING CHAIR.

God Twilight is seriously fucked up.
