If you don’t know what this is referencing, you owe it to yourself to watch this. Or even better, go buy one of his DVDs at bitterfilms.com and bask in all its glory.

Time to step out of the shadows I suppose. Been doing stuff and mostly not achieving anything, but overall hanging out with mates.
There’s been more buying of stuff, which I believe is always good for the soul, though not for the wallet. But I must mention that a parcel of nine sweet Godard films is now five weeks overdue and I’ve come to the conclusion it’s probably not going to turn up anytime soon. That revelation is a bit of damper.
But overall, not a helluva lot has been going on. There’s been several birthdays which I’ve managed to almost forget all off. People have been coming and going and I can’t help but feel this is all just that calm before the storm. Hopefully by storm, I mean busload of strippers parks itself in my driveway, but we’ll see.
Stuff I should mention is that this week is the last week of Future Te Aroha’s production of Little Shop of Horrors. People I know are in it and made it so go check it out. Here’s the poster.
A video of a bar being served by a monkey. I don’t know what exactly this is, but it is quite possibly the greatest thing on the face of this earth ever ever.
Impressively, this site is starting to near 1000 hits which is so cool I’m gonna do a repeat of what I did last time my site neared 1000 hits, offer a sweet prize to whoever is the 1000th visitor or nearest to after the fact. You can take screen caps by pressing alt + print screen which will copy an image to your clipboard. Save it, send it to me and you could also win one of these…
And second prize is you all have to suffer through this.
Twins who swapped roles charged with fraud An Italian woman who worked as a part-time judge as well as a lawyer was substituted by her identical twin sister in court so she would not lose out on legal fees when she had two simultaneous engagements. (full article)
Windscreen washer jailed for red-lights grope The court heard that on September 9 last year, Wainohu had approached his victim at the intersection of Hamilton’s Mill and Ulster Sts, offering to wash her windscreen.
As the woman lowered her window to pay Wainohu, he reached in and squeezed her breast. (full article)
Teen tries to kill mum to pay for breast job Cause guys seriously like boobs that much. A US teen had a extreme plan to pay for his girlfriend’s breast implants – hire some thugs to kill his mother, then sell her car. (full article)
Seriously. Sometimes I feel a little stabby just to get as some great cleavage. Its science.
Three nights of drinking is both awesome and terrible. My liver must hate me right now.
Spit-takes has so far gotten a good response from people, which is great and encouraging to carry on with the next project. Still trying to find the best compression for it as a HD file and for vimeo, but that’s technical mumbo jumbo nobody cares about.
News and stuff wise, its been a quite few days so I don’t really have anything else to post about. Its gonna be a fairly low key week it seems and no planned robot fights to speak of, though I’ve been thinking of starting themed weeks just for the hell of it. Mostly, I just want to print and wear a whole series of t-shirts that say ‘Fuck (whatever is pissing me off at the time)’ and have a different shirt every day for a whole week. That’d be sweet.
Anyway, here’s a golden oldie I always like watching, the Who’s on First sketch rendered with typography. Next post will hopefully have something more interesting. Or disturbing. Whichever comes first. Or last. I need beer.
At work tonight my boss was praising my recent work efforts. Wasn’t really paying as much attention until I heard it said “you worked really hard like a little nigger”.
No other workmate heard it, nor were they in earshot, but goddamnit if I’m not pretty certain much, shit you not, 99% certain that is what was said and I was fairly dumbstruck to continue listening or react or anything.
Just finished a late night edit of short film for festival. Rough cut is done and audio needs some reworking. Music needs to be put in and graphics need to be tweaked. So… Almost… Finished. But sleep first.
