I wonder if I can last longer enough to kill this thing

 

[Axver]

Santner giving us more reason to drink.

 

[coolian2]

pens another bottle:

 

[coolian2]

Damn it emoticons

 

[Vlad n U 2]

This match is so predictable.

 

[Axver]

This match is so predictable.

Vlad's talking about himself again.

 

[coolian2]

Sad!

 

[Axver]

Nice that Munro and Henry keep trying here, but it's futile.

 

[Axver]

You know in T20 you would almost back this chase. Let's have a miracle!

Okay I'll go find a girlfriend

I mean it's as likely.

 

[Axver]

And now we're chucking away wickets.

I could have batted those last three.

 

[Axver]

I could have batted those last three.

I could have... not.

New idea for a comedy series: 30 minutes per week of me trying to bat and field.

The last episode allows me a minute of bowling to regain some dignity.

 

[coolian2]

I'm sure my balls would hurt

 

[Axver]

I'd get my glasses and nose broken on a regular basis.

 

[Axver]

Ian seems to be dead. I guess that means it's Prince of Persia time for me, or something. Even though I finally beat it. Would be nice to get a faster time. More sentence fragments. Yes.

 

[coolian2]

I did indeed die.

 

[coolian2]

Okay so my plan today is to go upside down into the pool soon, then go take my dad to the beach. Hopefully I'll be dry by the second part.

Flatmate: "Why are your board shorts always ugly?"
Me: "Have you seen me, I like to keep a theme going"
Flatmate: "Oh stop it, you're fine, trust me"
Me: "Stop it and just flip me into the water again"
:half drowns, loses glasses, phone...:

I give up on understanding things. Nor caring about them.

 

[coolian2]

I'm happy that it's flirting in a "fuck it, let's give each other English/Kiwi shit" than anything else. Never screw the crew.

 

[coolian2]

Lesson learned the hard way. I mean that did help my resting bitch face, but still.

Can we get this on pay per view?

 

[coolian2]

Just Tweeted at a Member of Parliament who'd replied to me with the "when pigs fly" image out of The Simpsons.

 

[coolian2]

Thanks Facebook for reminding it's been five years to the day since I nearly stopped existing.

Damn.

At this point you're just asking for it.

Sure, as long as I make a lot of money.

Damn.

Facebook makes a holiday out of one of my statuses every year. It merely says "I know nothing."

Of course, it reminds me of something much sadder.

 

[Axver]

I fucking turned off that Facebook memories shit.

 

[Axver]

Well, see ya John Key. Not sad to see you go; I just wish your party were walking out the door with you.

I've always found it surprising that he has been so widely liked. I'm told he comes across as charismatic in person, but on telly he has all the excitement of watching cardboard. I expect that in the long term he will be remembered without warmth as a stable but unspectacular PM, a man whose achievements are modest. What can you point to? Marriage equality? Would have happened sooner if Labour and the Greens were in power, and only happened thanks to them anyway. Christchurch recovery? Fuck me he put Gerry Brownlee in charge, which is almost criminal. The economy? Anybody who says that clearly has no grasp on homelessness in Auckland.

I made sure I was prepared for being dunked this time.
