When you get all your news from the internets, TV starts to feel totally retarded. Especially if it’s TVNZ. Here’s what I learned from television tonight:
-
Pluto is no longer officially a planet because a group of astronomers decided to boot it out of the Solar system! All of the astrologers interviewed were incredulous at the decision but vowed to not let the reclassification interfere with their predictions. Unfortunately no astronomers could be reached for comment.
-
What’s the deal with emoticons…? They serve no useful purpose! [Thanks Rove, I can't wait to hear next week's timely routine about Pluto being kicked out of the Solar system].
-
Other people’s accents are so fucking funny!
What I really love is the fabulous irony of the "wacky crap on the internet" segment they have at the end of the news here, where we can learn about crazy new topics like viral marketing!
Speaking of irony, I’ve got myself a new wristwatch, a chunky-ass stainless steel analog thing with the 3 extra mini dials on the face. I’ve taken to wearing it for a few reasons:
-
I wish to reduce my chances of being mistaken for gay, and my previous watch just wasn’t macho enough.
-
I found the watch while walking home, and I love finding stuff because it removes the burden of choice– It becomes fate!
-
The watch is called Irony so it’s totally cool for me to wear it– I love irony!
