laziness..

Tag: Thoughtsevilkarl @ 11:14 am

Albert Einstein is quoted as having said “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the universe. ” and I agree, human stupidity does seem to be infinite.

I have another one.

i think laziness is the only infinite resource in the universe” - Me

The above was the original form of the statement however I then remembered Einstein’s quote and came to the conclusion that Human stupidity and laziness are both infinite resources.

Damn work

Tag: Misc, Movie Review, Rantsevilkarl @ 9:28 am

Yesterday was the Inaugural Cake Day..that is from last week it was decided to have one cake day a month for each persons bday instead of a cake (or two) for each bday in a month, some months like May have 5 bdays in them..may is a popular month for bdays.

Additionally we were informed that one of the companies considering using the product the company I work for (notice I didn’t use our)  develop is going to see two customers of ours and discuss their experience with us..I let out a loud laugh which probably was unwise. One of the customers is unhappy with us because something they heavily rely on always breaks the other was promised something at least a year ago and its still in development because resources kept getting reassigned from it.

Over the weekend I watched much arrested development its funny…in fact I watched all of arrested development, some dr who and I saw the latest Rambo movie.

Rambo was a very rambo movie, shooting, blood, explosions. Despite the fact Stalone is 62ish now he still did pretty well in this movie it was a good action flick i give it 3 thumbs up.

I hate mondays and I miss the weekend.

I watched a bit of classic dr who this weekend, some sg-1 and shoot em up again it was pretty good..also played some hellgate london which is fun but shits me at times when it crashes in the middle of kicking some arse and i have to play through the same levels over and over again.

Yay weekend

Tag: Movie Review, TVevilkarl @ 10:11 am

Well I worked back last night fortunately only 30 mins not too pleased about that. When I got home I watched some classic Dr Who and stuffed around a little on facebook ate some reheated pizza. Later on Raina came over and we watched the Shawshnk Redemption, we had both had a few questions on it on facebook when doing the movie quiz and she had read the book a few weeks ago and bought  the dvd last week.

I enjoyed the Shawshank redemption, Morgan Freeman was great as usual and while I am not a fan of Tim Robbins he was good in the movie. I give it 4.2 thumbs up

After Raina Left I played Hellgate london until about 4:30 then went to bed.

work, TSCC

Tag: TV, Thoughtsevilkarl @ 8:22 am

Well another day and I am at work..damn I hate work.

Last night I went to Raina’s and we had some nachos and watched some very funny Boston Legal and Terminator: Sarah Conner Chronicles.

TSCC is ok, Summer Glau is good as a Terminator, Lena Headly however and the way the writers are portraying Sarah Conner is not ok. Sarah Conner wouldn’t be concerned about killing someone to protect John, She would be concerned if she killed them too slow or made it too drawn out. The Sarah Conner from Terminator was hardcore not this soft whiner (who finally beat someone down) the writers so far haven’t exactly been portraying Sarah Conner, I hope the episodes to come do a better job. Sarah Conner is Hardcore Tough and would willingly enter a fight with anyone and kill anyone who tried to hurt John.

Firstly.. new blog software used to be MT now WP, congrats to the WP guys for making the import so easy.

Last night I went and saw Juno, Its a comedy about a teenage pregnancy it has good acting and great comic delivery and I really enjoyed it I give it a 4.2/5 thumbs up

I recently reinstalled my machine which allowed me to once more play games I have been playing BioShock and Hellgate London, the latter is made by the same people that made Diablo II and it is a similar kind of game with some similar things, skill tree’s normal, enhanced, rare, legendary and unique items, personal relocation devices (town portaly) the combat is more interactive and you have a few options with how to play the character there are also 6 classes. Bioshock is fun as well..

Beowulf

Tag: Movie Reviewevilkarl @ 9:16 am

Raina and I went and saw Beowulf last night we had seen the previews and thought that it could either be very good or very bad. Turns out is was just very “Interesting”.

Neither of us realised before we went in that the movie was entirely CG every character in the movie was a CG character based on a actor. The story was good although a little drawn out and the CG was pretty amazing..but movies where they try to do every single character in CG don’t work for me. One thing that was super annoying was the fact that because they could they use weird and stupid angles that you wouldn’t touch ordinarily they did. Additionally because they can do anything they want and they can ignore reality they do..they ask you to suspend disbelief a little too much. Monsters, dragons, demons, heroes I can all get behind being in a movie..but some of what was in this movie was more than a little daft.

When we got home we looked the movie up in imdb to see who played what and had a laugh at the plot keywords. “Impalement / Stabbed In The Arm / Sliced In Two / Shield / Burning City” the list goes on it made us chuckle.

All in all I think i will give it a 2.5 thumbs up.

The weekend

Tag: Misc, TVevilkarl @ 9:55 am

The weekend is gone.. it was entertaining.

Friday I left work early using flexitime which was good, went to Raina’s on friday for dinner and watched superman returns which was also good.

I spent a bit of time watching the 4400 season 1 and up to episode 10 of season2..When it first aired here I didn’t watch it but I am actually enjoying it. I also bought ghost rider, hot fuzz, scarface and transformers the game. I watched ghost rider it was ok and hot fuzz cracked me up. I couldn’t install transformers it seems to require XP ..yet another game my machine meets the reqs for and I can’t play this is really annoying me. I might have to get XP soon

I did some other stuff as well helped Raina a little with some of her stuff, played pool last night at the coffs as well as some pokies at the RSL.

Umm yeah I’ll leave it at that.
