JENS LEKMAN ON THE ROOFTOP →
All my friends are pissing off overseas this summer; surely someone would like to attend this event with me?
clientsfromhell:
Client: Can you un-blur the background on this photo?
Me: Unblur?
Client: Yeah, I want the whole image to be super sharp. I don’t particularly care for that whole deep field thing you keep telling me about.
Me: You mean depth of field?
Client: Yeah, whatever. Just unblur it.
Me: That’s impossible.
Client: I’ve seen it done on CSI.

Shanghai Village: (Vagina) Palace of Dumplings →
I am somewhat relieved that “Vagina Palace” is the appropriate Melbourne colloquialism for Shanghai Village and not a friendship group colloquialism. My exclamations of Let’s all eat out at the Vagina Palace! are more often met with a quirked eyebrow and the further questioning of my sexuality than a knowing nod.

I HATE you ninefruits.

ninefruits:
Jesus, I post something about people not being able to handle a piece of technology invented (according to wikipedia) in the mid-19th Century and all of a sudden I’m responsible for preventing the advancement of women.
What kind of person can’t handle an escalator???
The Japanese. I mean, shit dude, if the Japanese can’t handle escalators, what chance does...
I HATE you ninefruits.

(via thedarkspark)
Why, because I’d rather not die of skin cancer by going to festivals and you don’t know how to use escalators?
ninefruits = sad old man who thinks his ability to get on an escalator without apprehension somehow makes him a progressive.
It’s hard being a white, urban male.

Moving On Up
ninefruits:
Let me just be frank about this: If you want to be my lover you cannot, or more appropriately, MUST NOT be tentative about getting on escalators. I just don’t think I could ever dedicate my soul to someone who finds the initial step onto, or off, an escalator a difficult procedure. Now, I understand if you are 86 years old and have a broken hip and back in your day such technology...

This is about as patriotic as I get. If you hate Raspberry Sunnyboys (or as we use to call them back in my day, a “Razz” [pl. Razzes]), you hate Australia and probably democracy.
Our summer is girt by iced confections.
Did the orange ones used to be called ozzies? Man I love sunny boys, suck all the juice out of the top then flip it over :)
No, I believe the orange...
