Procrastination never pays…

true as fuck

Nope I’m not gonna turn that title around into actually proving that procrastination does sometimes pay… because it fucking doesn’t. I’ll refer you to this nice picture. I quit my job 2 months ago to concentrate on working for myself. The theory being if I had more time to myself I could do all the things I’ve been making nixer money off over the years but make a shit load more. Didn’t fucking happen. When before I was turning down nixers because a) I was working or b) I had a day off and I wasn’t gonna fucking do a stitch, it ran dry. I’ve had about 3 nixers and that isn’t really enough to pay the bills my friend. I then came up with a genius idea to make some money but it involves getting out there and getting people involved. Yet I just can’t seem to peel myself off the couch. I’m writting this with 2 days to go for rent. I need to go out there and sell my idea in 2 days what I had predicted would take a month. I’m even procrastinating sleeping by typing this blog. It probably makes as little fucking sense as sitting playing Call Of Duty: MW2 and hoping the jobs will just come in.

8 Chat Up Lines That AMAZINGLY Worked For Me

My mate Dave just posted a blog about the 8 Chat Ups that never worked for him so I have decided to post ones that for some unknown reason actually DID work for me…

Here we go in no particular order…

8. Yes I do know HTML and I would be happy to do you’re college project for you.

7. We probably shouldn’t be chatting out here, you have a boyfriend.

6. What does my lip ring feel like when I kiss someone… I don’t know yet, want to see? (used on numerous occasions, mental note get lip pierced again)

5. Mind if I stick my tongue in your mouth and swirl it around?

4. We shouldn’t be dancing this close, your boyfriends sitting over there… let’s go to the toilets.

3. Sho are we gonna sssnog or wha? (while being completely pissed and uncharming)

2. You really shouldn’t have your head on my lap, your boyfriends upstairs (recurring theme, yes i’m a pig)

1. ARRRRRRGGGHGGGHHHHHHH! (screamed loudly in her face) Hi I’m Lam.

David Beckham’s beard…

a scruffy beard, yesterday

So yesterday was my last day in work after I gave my 2 weeks notice. People keep asking me where i’m going to and what am i going to do. The answer is nowhere and nothing. I have no job lined up and no desire to jump straight into working again. Why are other people so shocked that I could be so “wreckless” and “silly”? You have your own lives people, go live them. So today I posted a tweet asking for suggestions to do something productive and one of those replies was to update my blog. So here we are and here is a picture of David Beckham’s beard.

Isn’t that the WORST looking piece of scruff you have ever seen…. I mean for fuck sake, if you can’t grow a fucking beard then don’t grow a fucking beard. I for one can grow a fantastic beard, it’s quite impressive really but because I was working in a bar I was asked to shave every day. I HATE shaving and rarely did. Now I am unemployed I am going to grow a manly man beard and show you how it’s done. Yup my friends when I get asked “You quit your job, what are you going to do?” I shall reply in a booming manly voice… “I’M GOING TO GROW A BEARD”.

Who says unemployment ain’t fun. The suggestion to update my blog came from the awesome Dave Minogue (of Danni and Kylie fame) and he has an impressive manly man beard and a hilarious blog you can check out here.

Here’s to a new adventure…

Loserdom 19 – new issue of long running Dublin zine.

www.loserdomzine.com

Another Loserdom is in my hands and i realize i still haven’t made any effort to finish a second zine. It continually inspires and depresses me to see such a great zine been put together so often.

The topics they choose to write about are so varied but always interesting. For example a piece about urban foxes is pretty interesting, i didn’t even know i wanted to know stuff about foxes. A great anti-racism piece. An interview with Galway band Only Fumes And Corpses blew me away. The comics are well drawn as always.

With loads more, get it off Anto at various gigs and at http://www.loserdomzine.com/

now back to my zine it’ll be out soon, honest
