Welcome to Said.The.Joker.To.The.Thief, part of a network of personal blogs. Oh, by the way, ditch I.E. Get Firefox or Opera.

Bastards.

Firstly, I'd like to complain about the Daily Mail, it's a crock of shite. However, more importantly, it's pissed me off this weekend. You know they give those free cd's out on Saturday's? One of them is called "Summer Days", it was released earlier this year. Another CD was released under the same title this weekend. It contained the exact same piss-poor tracks as the first, and if isn't bad enough that the paper can't afford to generate another album I've rummaged through the entire selection of free Cd's and they [all] contain piss-poor songs to.
That's a bit trivial though, my second issue is more important.
Though to understand it I enforce you - yes, enforce - to read this post first "People always expect more when you have curly hair". [Note: Unfortunately the commenting system has been disabled on the post and thus I have to respond with an individual post, you see.]
This ACTUALLY disgusted me. You should see Kayleigh's hair, it rocks. I really love Kay's hair, almost as much as her suspiciously white teeth - almost, but not quite. I even enjoy Sarah Jessica Parkers hair (although, the person herself I have more than quibbles with). So, for people to belittle the gene-dependent feature to such extents as to predict extortionately low IQ's annoys me quite considerably.
I'm gonna stop now, cus it looks (at least to me) like I'm monopolising on Kay's territory...

Note: The darling Kay has now fixed the previous post to accept comments, obviously done to humiliate me :P      

Downloading for eternity...

Eventually the world's population will increase to such an extent that everything has to be rationed, every individual will be limited to one just one channel of LivingTv as opposed to the thirty-something you get nowadays, just the youghurt section of a Muller Crumble and just one pet-hate.
Fortunately, I've already chosen my pet-hate today. Microsoft.
This time it's not just because they're an evil, faceless and Australian [see this post] organisation, I actually have a reason.
I turned automatic updates on for the first time today, happily installed the 'minor' security updates which would stop hackers and phishers from stealing my souls and then began Service Pack Two. It started downloading, and downloading, and downloading... and downloading.
It took a total of 5 1/4 hours to complete the 113MB download. That's roughly 2.7mb/min, which is crap.
What's even crappier is that it takes it that 5 1/4 hours AND 15 minutes installing time for it to tell me I need a legal version of Windows to install it. Why the frigging hell couldn't they have told me that BEFORE I started the bloody download? Actually, I would have been happy if they hadn't of let me download ANY updates, rather than lulling me into a full sense of security.
Also, I have no idea where the bloody files been downloaded to, so I can't get rid of it! That's 0.412Gb of my harddrive already wasted (the other 0.2991Gb resulting from The Rasmus Album, I've Been Expecting You by Robbie and one particularly dreadful free song from iTunes Music Store).

Anyway, Toodle-ooy
