this is the new shit

Title is the titular lyric from 'This Is The New Shit' by Marilyn Manson.

I'm a bit too wasted to post properly just now, so here we go. Wallaby linked me to this little piece of wtf. As she said, "Starts out funny, then gets scarily realistic."

The author there is right--trying to work out how some of these people think is quite frightening.

In other news:


  • The job market here is so poor I'm starting to seriously consider prostitution. Something like 40% of female students in Melbourne do it, apparently, although that may well be overly sensationalistic. Alternately I guess I could put an ad in the local paper as a dog walker/stablehand, but I really wish Starbucks or something was hiring so I could just drop off a resume and hope for the best. Bah.
  • I am doing NaNoWriMo this year. (Haven't heard of it? Here.) Would anyone be interested in seeing my progress posted here? I'll probably put at least the first 1700-ish words up. So far, my main idea is a shameless rip-off of at least one Shakespearean play.
  • I haven't started my statistics assignment yet. It's due on Tuesday. But that's okay, because it's only 1200 words. I can write 300 words a day on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Sound good? Not to me. Statistics classes and assignments are, for me, one huge long hooker moment.
