For the love of all that is decent and kind in this world WHY would anyone want a video chatting device controlled by Facebook, privacy issues? alarming social media content? nosy Alexa AI bots? pick up a MF’ing phone to call your loved ones without subjecting them to 3rd dimension space invaders!

Lil Sis departed today for the wilds of Canada again.

That’s be right … half the fucking south east of Australia is enveloped in a firestorm for the past couple of months and you brag about being cold, wet and tranquil.

I got my kids Blackadder quote T-shirts for Christmas.

Every kid wants new clothes for Christmas instead of toys and video games.

(Got ninja’ed by Annie Xmas that’s why.)  
You got something against ladies with two names, that some anti-Southern thing, like you think they’re trailer trash or something? Talk about male chauvinism!

Too lazy to cook so you just grab some sodium-laden, greasy, proccessed food in an environmentally unfriendly package out of the frozen food section, huh?

The cat got trapped in the TV room so peed on the futon, which I am now in the process of cleaning and deodorizing.

Serves you right. Don’t you know by now, these are furry balls of evil destructive force - these pets care nothing for your property, barely care at all for YOU. Sorry but it’s true.

Every now and then, I like a piece of good key lime pie.

Every now and then, like over the course of a day every couple hours another slice is pfffft gone? Thanks for leaving the empty pie tin for the rest of us!
