speling. U no can has it.

Since miss_soap pointed this out the other day, I've seen it ALL OVER livejournal.

Guys, the newest Tim Burton film starring Helena Bonham-Carter and Johnny Depp is called:

Sweeney Todd

Not Sweeny Todd.

If you loved the film so much you could at least make the effort to spell it right.

If you don't believe me, look at the poster. There, see?

LOL

The Internet Party

What happens when Google's parents are away? A party! Facebook, ebay, Paypal, Snopes, Something Awful, Digg - they're all there.

Snopes is the best. Facebook is fucking annoying. Wikipeadia gets everything wrong. Watch it!

And if you are wondering what it is that Urban Dictionary says at the end( ... )

Discussion Topic:

One can be self-concious and un-self-aware at the same time.

Often, those who are most self-concious are the most un-self-aware.

Street Harassment

It's still happening, but as I now have Obvious Headphones, I can pretend it isn't happening, and ignore it most of the time.

Here's what I wrote last year
(link is to the tagged entries, so scroll down past this one!)

Someone on 2wheelsbetter linked me to an article I thought fit quite well along with those rants, so those of you that were interested in those (which was broadly split between the women that understood, and the men that got offended and said BUT I'M NOT LIKE THAT to which I'd reply read this)

"Why do you think it's OK to harass women?" I said calmly, loudly. The man froze, then a look of fear washed over his features. He shrank like a worm. "What?" he snivelled, his eyes sliding to the floor. "I didn't say anything bad ..."

"It doesn't matter what you said, I didn't say that you could speak to me. It's not OK to whisper in a woman's ear when she's going about her business.


There are also some 'but WOMEN DO IT TOO' and yes, but 'I'M NOT LIKE THAT' comments to the article there too. I sincerely hope I don't have to explain to anyone reading why this makes me cross.

from one of the comments:
It would be great if, instead of claiming we're making a fuss about nothing, the decent men out there accepted that this *is* a problem for a lot of women and make it clear when they see it happening that they don't think harassing women is funny or acceptable.
