Client: “That font right there! It’s clean yet edgy. There’s no WAY I’ve seen that font before, I would’ve remembered! What font is that?”

Have you tried taking Lacteez before eating dairy? I use the extra strength tablets and feel less like my stomach is being rung out like a wet piece of washing (keeping up with the laundry theme) when I attempt to eat creamy, milky foods.
No, I haven’t! I’ve resigned to paying 30¢-70¢ for my coffee, living in Box Hill and generally avoiding dairy....

I have become really intolerant to dairy products over the last one and a half years. However, I was shopping at Leo’s yesterday and they had a four-pack of freshly baked French Vanilla slices — my favourite diabetus-inducing baked good — for half price. What would be a party in my stomach in 2007 now resembles a malfunctioning washing machine in a fifty-year-old...

The design rules of ink on paper, which we’ve been trying to implement on the web where we can (but how we kicked and screamed!) are over.
I’ve been designing books, newspapers and magazines now for...

I’m finding it difficult to not get sad everytime I see something Decemberists-related on my dashboard. I had a ticket for their second Melbourne show, but it worked out that I couldn’t get back in time. Add to that the fact that Colin Meloy is now performing a solo show in Melbourne, ugggh.
It might sound silly or overdramatic, but it’s breaking my heart a little that there’s...

Supervisor: Anthony, remember it’s Australia Day tomorrow, so you need to wear a flag to work. Anthony’s inner monologue: Get fucked. Ohhh, get fucked.

3. Foucaultist power relations and postsemiotic desituationism
“Society is used in the service of sexism,” says Marx. In a sense, Sontag promotes the use of dialectic discourse to challenge capitalism. In The Aesthetics of Thomas Aquinas, Eco reiterates postsemiotic desituationism; in The Limits of Interpretation (Advances in Semiotics) he deconstructs premodernist textual theory.
