Conformity

I found this article about experiments on the human mind. You can find it here, and it's pretty good, but it's this section that I love the most

'"Well, it's a good thing I'm a rebellious non-conformist," many of you are saying. Of course, for virtually all of you, the next step is to find out what the other non-conformists are doing ...


... and make sure you conform to it perfectly.


"Wait, you're right! Surely we must rebel against this mindless herd mentality! Let's all take to the streets!"

Golden age of video

You know those times when you find something and think 'Thats so awesome, why didn't I think of that?'...



WE ACCEPT HER ONE OF US =D

This is just...too awesome!

All by myself?

Why did it take me so long to find out about this video?! IT'S AWESOME!!

Grammer

Why is grammar so important?

The difference between...

I helped my uncle, Jack, off his horse.

and

I helped my uncle jack off his horse.

It matters.

Geek Humour

If you laugh at this, you're a geek =]

A physicist, engineer and a statistician are out hunting. Suddenly, a deer appears 50 yards away.

The physicist does some basic ballistic calculations, assuming a vacuum, lifts his rifle to a specific angle, and shoots. The bullet lands 5 yards short.

The engineer adds a fudge factor for air resistance, lifts his rifle slightly higher, and shoots. The bullet lands 5 yards long.

The statistician yells "We got him!"

Don't worry, I laughed too =]

Bobby McFerrin

I don't know what this is about, but it's pretty awesome!

This video well and truly makes my head hurt...

Words

This is the coolest sentence ever

“I do not know where family doctors acquired illegibly perplexing handwriting nevertheless, extraordinary pharmaceutical intellectuality counterbalancing indecipherability, transcendentalizes intercommunications incomprehensibleness”

In case you haven't figured it out, the Nth word is N letters long. In other words, the 1st word is 1 letter, the 2nd is 2, the 3rd is 3 and so on.

Eyes

This quote has affected me a surprising amount, so here it is again!

Lewis Carroll

One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. "Which road do I take?" she asked. "Where do you want to go?" was his response. "I don't know," Alice answered. "Then," said the cat, "it doesn't matter."

Surprisingly philisophical quote from Alice in Wonderland. I actually really like this, to a surprising degree =D

BNP Question Time

You know what. I was originally going to write an epic post about the Question Time episode. However, I just realised that anything that needs to be said was made clear on the program simply by the audiences reaction.

Nick Griffin was made a mockery of. That was why I agreed with his going on the show.

Creationism

The creationist is a tool. The other guy is awesome.

Dead

Lee is dead. Blame Man Flu.

Awesomeness

You may have heard of this website called '[The Customer is] Not Always Right'. It's awesome. I'm tired now though, so I'll post a link to it some other time. Heres the kind of thing you get on it though:

Me: “Hello, this ***. How may I help you?”

Customer: “Hi, I have your company name on my credit card bill with a charge of $29.99. I’ve never heard of you guys.”

Me: “Okay, sir…there’s a purchase of a monthly subscription to our adult website in here.”

Customer: “Adult website? What, as in porno?”

Me: “That’s correct, sir.”

Customer: “This is nonsense! I’ve never bought any porn!”

Me: “Sir, we do have the order in your info in here. If you are not satisfied with the content, however, we can give you a refund.”

Customer: “I never ordered any porn! This is an outrage! I’m a married man, a father and a family man!”

Me: “You said family man, sir?”

Customer: “Yes!”

Me: “How old is your son, sir?”

Customer: *long pause* “I’ll call you back.” *click*

Frustration

Mum: Lee go bed for a bit you look tired

Me: Half 6

Me: Thanks for waking me up...
Mum: I did, you didn't get up.
Me: I TOLD YOU I WOULDN'T WERWETGERGSDF

Just been watching Family Fortunes. The thing was 'An Animal That Might Eat You'

My Mum: Is a shark an animal?
Me: Well it's not a plant, is it?

5 Facts About The King Georges!

Between the years 1714 to 1830, England was graced with the reign of four awesome kings. George I, George II, George III and, guess who, George IV. This period has now become known as the Georgian Era, and it was a time of some weird and bizarre stuff.

But the most weird and bizarre things about this era were the kings themselves:

1. Despite being King of England, George I was German. There were many, more suitable people for the throne, but they were all Catholic. The Act of Settlement 1707 prohibited catholics from gaining the throne.


2. George III was, in laymans terms, a bit cuckoo. Noone knew at the time what was wrong with him but we now believe he had Porphyria. This is a disease also known as 'The Vampire disease' as it causes 'vampire-like' symptoms, such as sensitivity to sunlight and treatment by injection of blood. In fact, in 1985 it was believed there was a chemical which can worsen porphyria symptoms. Where can we find this chemical? In garlic!


3. George II had an extremely volatile relationship with his father. So much so in fact, his father (while still king) had him arrested for disagreeing with who should be godfather to George III.


4. George IV was extremely overweight. In 1797 he weighed 17st 7lb and in 1824 his corset was measured to a waist of 50 inches. He loved the lavish lifestyle of large banquets with lashings of alcohol. His weight was so tremendous it half-suffocated him at times.


5. George IV also extremely disliked his wife, Caroline of Brunswick (who was also his cousin). He only married her as by agreeing to do this was the only way he could get his father to help him with his enormous debt. In fact, he hated her so much he tried to divorce her by introducing the Pains and Penalties bill 1820, which aimed 'to deprive Her Majesty Queen Caroline Amelia Elizabeth of the Title, Prerogatives, Rights, Privileges, and Exemptions of Queen Consort of this Realm; and to dissolve the Marriage between His Majesty and the said Caroline Amelia Elizabeth.'

If you want to see just how awesome the King Georges were, just check out their band! ;D

Jokes for Folks

This joke is dedicated to my friends Connie and Ian =D

An American, a Liverpudlian and a Canadian were in a terrible car accident. They were all brought to the same emergency room, but all three of them died before they arrived. Just as they were about to put the toe tag on the American, he stirred and opened his eyes. Astonished, the doctors and nurses present asked him what happened.

"Well," said the American, "I remember the crash, and then there was a beautiful light, and then the Canadian and the Liverpudlian and I were standing at the gates of heaven. St. Peter approached us and said that we were all too young to die, and that for a donation of $100, we could return to the earth."

He continued, " So of course, I pulled out my wallet and gave him the $100, and the next thing I knew I was back here."

"That's amazing!" said one of the doctors, "But what happened to the other two?"

"Last I saw them," replied the American, "the Liverpudlian was haggling over the price and the Canadian was waiting for the government to pay for his."

Animal Farm: The Cartoon

Well, you've all heard of the story Animal Farm by George Orwell.

A bunch of animals are reflections of political ideologies...and what not.

Anyway, it seems our politics teacher likes this idea, and the other day we were given this little creature on a work-sheet:

This is Lenny the Liberal Lion. An unfortunate creature who has forgotten what his beliefs are.

Anyway, I liked this idea, and since I haven't drawn in almost a year, I decided to have a little fun:

Meet Sally the Socialist Snake, Colin the Communist Cow and Figaro the Fascist Fish. Unfortunately, my pencil broke before I could created Clayton the Conservative Crab. I also refuse to associate myself with Gary the Green Party Goose.

Bloody hippies.

Best Stand Up

My favourite stand-up joke just came on TV, so I thought I'd share it with you!

You can tell we're better than the Australians at Rugby. Just look at the names of the players. Our best player: Johnny Wilkinson. Johnny! Wilkinson! Named after two of the most macho products on the market. A rubber condom and a three-bladed razor. Now look at their player. Elton Flatley. Named after the two campest men in showbusiness.

This was part of my namesake Lee Macks act on Live at the Apollo. In case you wanted to know!

Bird Song

I thought this was really awesome

Stupid Americans Continued

While it's true this isn't neccesarily an American, it ties in well with my last post, so deal with it kay? =]

This picture makes me lol. Someone didn't do history in high school =]

Stupid Americans

I'm sorry about this. I really am.

It's not that I dislike Americans. I love a lot of you. But you have to admit, the majority of you are thick as two short planks.

I put this to you. It is a real quote from an article which was going against Obamas health care bill:

People such as scientist Stephen Hawking wouldn't have a chance in the U.K., where the National Health Service would say the life of this brilliant man, because of his physical handicaps, is essentially worthless.

In case you didn't know, Stephen Hawking was born in Cambridge and has lived in the UK his whole life.

Noodle-oodle

Isn't this just incredible?

Texting Funness

Texting fun times

Me: Lucky me. Got onto the packed bus and sat next to a woman who got off at the next stop. Got the seat to myself! But theres a kid opposite blowing a whistle >_<

Lorna: You love it really :P

Me: My phone beeped when I got that text and everyone gave me evils! THAT LITTLE MIDGETY THINGS PLAYING FUCKING CUM-BY-AR ON THE RECORDER AND MY PHONE MAKES THE TINIEST 2 NOTES AND IT'S LIKE I KILLED A PUPPY!!

Lorna: Rofl!

Disney Buys Marvel?

So maybe I'm a bit late to find out, but apparently Disney owns Marvel? That's right, Spiderman is now in the same universe as Hannah Montana, Snow White and, if I'm correct, Scrubs!

Hopefully now the Jonas Brothers will get bit by a radioactive spider, and rather than become superheroes die of radiation poisoning. And then JD can refuse to treat them =]

Pi

Someone mentioned this and it made me laugh, so I made this 'illustration'

Hipocrisy

Ever noticed how the web is full of people complaining about the impersonalisation of friendships, the invasion of privacy and the loss of social lives caused by online websites such as Facebook, Twitter and DailyBooth, yet they are using their blog to give this rant to people they have probably never met.

Stupid Jobsworths

A few things floating around my mind to update about.

Thursday, my Dad had an argument with the ticket person at the cinema. She wouldn't let me in to see an 18.

(granted, I'm not 18. But I'm with my Dad. The whole point of the age limits is basically so parents don't get pissed when their 13 year old comes home after having watched some of the semi-snuff-porn type things out today)

So my Dad argued my case a bit but she absolutely refused to let me in to see it. So we decided to see a different film instead.

But, heres the kicker, she wanted me to pay the over 18 price!

She remained adament that since my dad had just said I was 18, then it was true and I must pay over 18 price. But if that's how she wants to play it, she should let me in to the 18!!

Now I've forgotten what else I was going to write about. So I'll carry on watching Final Destination 3 (Which is made of win

Hi Virtual World!

Hi there everyone!

Welcome to my new blog.

I've been wanting a blog for a while now. I keep getting one, writing on it a bit, then it all goes stale and I get bored and give up. Normally, it's because I want to stick to the 'theme' of the blog, but I have so many thoughts and opinions its hard.

But now I've realised that's the whole point of a blog. A random collection of blogs which actually don't have much in common!

Anyway, since I'm trying to get involved in the online community, it's about time I got a blog and stuck with it!!

I look forward to getting to know you! :P
