I think when I come home to NZ I might have to vote ACT or Nats in the hope that I don't have to pay lots of taxes to fund the type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stomach stapling operations etc.
What a brilliant idea. With my next PAYE payment, I'm going to send a note specifying that under no circumstances is one Peter Ashby ever to receive funds from me for his eventual knee replacement surgeries. In fact, I'm going to insist that all of my health dollars should go to couch potato smokers who consist solely on a diet of deep fried butter sticks.
Oh wait. That isn't how a public health system works, is it? That sort of stance would be *insanely fucking assholish and stupid of me*. As you were.

just released a version of "Just be good to me" with Professor Green which I rather like
Oh, am I alone in finding it meh? I totally adore the Beats International track (it made my 'top 40 songs of the 90s' compilation I did for a friend a few years back, and there was some stiff competition to get on that list, let me tell you) and I find the new one sorely missing 'tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty/you're listening to the boy from the big bad city/this is jam hot'.

Nice gams, Rhythm and Movement ladies! I feel a bit hot and bothered... (Note: I would have been bummed out if I was the poor woman at -4.44 who showed her underarm sweat to the nation.)
Happy birthday to your mum, Russell. Mine turns 65 in October, which I find rather unbelievable.
ETA I love that clip. Fuck it, we'll do it live!

Oh. OH. I was *so confused* about Emma's post, because I thought she was saying that she was with a woman as a partner, and I was all 'gosh, that's sudden! Wonder what happened there?' Reading comprehension fail, etc.

I must download that Virtual Homeless Wino app.

Russell, here's a comforting thought for you: now that Gio has the iPad to be critical of, he might stop giving the iPhone so much shit. Eventually he'll be spread so thinly across the range of Apple Products He Finds Problematic that he won't really have time to do any of them justice. Heh.

I literally cannot think the word 'justified' without saying 'and ancient' after it. This is what the 1990s did to me. :)

But it tells me at a glance who posted what and how many people liked it and how many people commented on it and what the last piece of the conversation was.... geared towards the social value added of participating in those conversations.
Thank goodness someone other than me likes Facebook better than Twitter, and can articulate why. I felt very Luddite-y, and now I feel justified (and ancient).
ETA: Fuck it, why not?

Not only do TV3 replace Top Chef with bloody Grand Designs at the last minute
Jackie, I only just realised that this was not a programming blip but an actual *permanent change*. To which I say: fuckery fucksticks, that is *infuriating*. I mean, I know everyone here at PAS apart from me wants to eat fried eggs off Kevin McLeod's naked bum, but I can see Grand Designs on two other channels! Regularly! And I had just started working out who to hate on this season of Top Chef! I had settled in for weeks of being annoyed by Tom Colicchio! Blah. I want more Chilean sea bass and random jus, dammit!

Danyl, I'm afraid the word 'whimsical' reminds me of librarians doing Lady Gaga parodies, and is therefore verboten.
