I Love Links - 17/11/09

ilovelinks
Man being unemployed is boring. Looking for jobs is boring, applying or them is boring, waiting to hear back from them is 10 kinds of boring and so forth. The fact it's 35 degrees in Brisbane today means going outside without sweating half to death is impossible and it's not like I have anything to do outside of the house anyway (except for spending money which we all know is a BAD IDEA when you're unemployed).

Luckily though my place has air-con and the internet has decided to be full of interesting and hilarious stuff this afternoon. So without further ado, some links!

  • Things Bogans Like. This makes sense if you're Aussie or very familiar with all things Australian. Otherwise it will probably get lost on you. It's also a hilarious re-do of Stuff White People Like which makes it even funnier. #17 is so, so true.

  • Hello Kitty Hell. I know so many guys who HATE Hello Kitty. I don't get why because I think Hello Kitty is eight kinds of amazing but I guess it may be something to do with the overt girlishness of it all. This site makes me laugh because of the poor guys reaction to all things Hello Kitty and also because it reveals to me products I didn't know existed and now totally want!

  • Photobomb has been around for ages but I go back and visit it now and then for the laughs. This one cracked me up!

  • People of Walmart is my favourite site of all at the moment. It boggles my mind that these people are real. Sure, we have bogans in Australia who get about in some fairly nasty stuff but holy shit! I have never seen obese woman shopping in their underpants or excessively hairy men in nothing but short-shorts and mesh tops. And let us hope I never do, either.



Bangs would like to take u 2 da movie!

And on a final and less silly note, ya'll should check out The Dead Walk Pool which is a collection o images, articles, videos and notes about the Brisbane Zombie Walk as organised by Gary Kemble from ABC Online who spent a lot of the day of the walk with us and did many interviews with myself, Anthony and Lara. If you have anything you want to upload, please do!

if we lived in the same city we could be bored, poor and unemployed together!

im stuck in the house cause my parents dont know im unemployed and only live around the corner. God how juvenile does that sound?

tempted to skulk to the bottle shop for a $5 bottle of wine...

Haha oh man that sucks. I'm glad mum knows and support me and my pursuit of Unfair Dismissal otherwise I'd be screwed!

I constantly want cheapo bottles of wine. Being unemployed just makes the desire stronger! Hahaha.

Mine would just lecture me about how I shouldnt have left my job without another one. she thinks im being stupid when I say i was being bullied so i've just stopped talking about work and started telling porkie pies.

Done and done. I needed something to go into my Fashion & un links area and now I have something :D

They made my day too! It makes me feel like such a classy person when I realise what sort o deadbeats are out there, walking around the shops in the underwear! My god!

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S REAL! I mean, I can but it hurts my brain to think people like that live beyond their 18th birthdays!
