In 20 years time, if somebody asked me “Andy, what was the most important piece of information you gained from running a blog?”, I’d probably have to say that it would be the knowledge that complaining about trivial things gets you free shit.
Back in about 2005 I had a rather unhealthy addiction to coffee. [...]
Those of you who aren’t completely fucking brain dead may remember I wrote an entry a few weeks back about ongoing phone calls, voicemails and text messages from CIT Group, supposedly in relation to a consumer finance account being in arrears.
Given that we’d already established that trying to contact them via telephone was impossible, the [...]
No doubt my loyal readers will recall a post I wrote back in December 2008 where I talked about a new corporate vehicle I purchased for the publishing empire.
When I bought the vehicle I asked the dealer to throw in a Mazda-branded hot beverage mug as part of the deal. They agreed and included [...]

So it appears Andy B has now banned me from his site for the next month. Good to see the ban is working well, hence I am able to not only post a comment, but a blog entry too.
Meh, before he fully bans me, I just want to say, tits, fuck you, labia, and Brittany [...]
It’s a sad day indeed when a Kmart employee gets to decide who you can talk to and when you can talk to them. A fucking Kmart employee. Kmart! Fucks sake.

I’m pretty sure that we’re all in agreement that as a general rule, there is fuck all worth watching on television these days. The Simpsons have been repeated so many fucking times on Channel 10 it’s not worth bothering with anymore, reality shows have taken over prime time and SBS hardly show any decent [...]
Most of you are probably aware of my love for a fucking nice cup of tea.
In June, I had to retire the old teapot, as the old girl was starting to show her yearsmonths. That teapot had served me well. Delicious, hot tea, time and time again. Mmm. Replacing [...]
Back in February, I wrote about a robbery at a Slurpee Emporium nearby to the corporate headquarters.
And, of course, I couldn’t let it slide without writing a letter to 7-Eleven about it.
