mrrow

I've discovered I like hanging out with myself and Max and msn best. I can do stuff when I want and devote as much thought to whatever when I want. People can be so funny online.

I like hanging out with guys second best. (Masculine lesbians are cool too sometimes) They make me laugh very hard and that is good. Goofiness can prevail and stuff doesn't have to always make sense.

And girls are last. They talk about secks, periods, relationships and the weather. They are boring and you must walk on eggshells to talk to them.

...puritanly perturbed

The only thing worse than a guy who talks about sex too much is a girl who does. I cannot *stand* girls who have to mention every other sentence that they've done it on the top of a bunkbed while their brother was on the bottom, they whack off in hotel showers, they notice stretch marks on their legs...... when their legs are raised while having SEX. Every single promising start to a conversation has to wind back up at sex. Like stfu.

I can't stand girls with potty mouths either. Sure, I can get a little lewd if I'm talking to a good friend, but there is an occasion for everything. This was at a small Christmas dinner tonight, where not everyone knew each other, and this girl hadn't known most of us for longer than a few hours. We really didn't need to know the intimate details of her sex life.

Whenever she mentioned something, there'd be kind of a silence and people would look away. I think she felt proud about making people feel uncomfortable and for being 'edgy' and 'non-conformist.' There are so many people out there who think that bringing their kink to the dinner table makes them cutting edge, risque and feminist, when all it does is make them look stupid.

Work Party 2 & 3 Reviews

My work party

Eats: .5 / 5 It said dinner on the invitations. There was no dinner, only appies.

Entertainment: 2/5 Omnimax made me nauseous. Toys were ok. Dancefloor had a good vibe but the venue made it seem empty.

Raffle: 0/5 None! And no speeches! The night needed some unity to hold it together.

Venue: 2/5 Science World is nice and all but its just not formal enough for a formal event, and too big. Bad ambience.

Extra: 5/5 Was great knowing lots of faces there of course, and meeting some new ones. Revelation of coworker's dancing styles = priceless. Karaoke after at 2 Parrots = hilarious.

9.5/25 ... ooh dismal failure. Somehow I still had fun. I'm a harsh rater.

J's work party

Eats: 6/5. I say 6 because not only was it the best food of the 3 parties, it was probably the best food I've ever had in my life. Smoked salmon, veggies with 'essense of orange,' rare steak, prawns and oysters, halibut, chocolate-drizzed fruit.. oh my.

Entertainment: 4/5 Present-stealing game was entertaining. Middle aged corporate women drunk out of their tree, catfighting over presents = (y)

Raffle: 4.5/5 Not bad for a 50-person company! A tv and lcd monitor and some other stuff..

Venue: 5/5. Westwood Plateau Country Club. Perfect size and ambience.

Extra: 2.5/5. Medium score because the people at our table were kind of meh & the venue was far to get to.

22/25 WINNAR WINNAR.

Prrrrty

I have the pleasure of attending 3 xmas work parties this December. I'ma review 'em all. Here's the first:

The Stimmy Rockstar Party.

Eats: OMFGROTFLMAO! If dried out prosciutto jerky, suspicious stuffing and brown celery roots are your thing. I guess the company knows that 1337 G4M3R5 who eat pizza and chips all night will eat just about anything. 0/5

Entertainment: DJ Girl rawked the house yo. Stimmy provided mad strobe light f-x. Drama-prone girls wandered around and so did space invader characters that do have names. ('splitter,' 'pulser' 'mystery ship' and '10, 20 or 30 pt. invaders so hah.) 4.5/5

Raffle: Dinky cars and ipods. 3/5

Venue: A cozy size for a cozy-sized company, and nice tropical decor and boob paintings. 4.5/5

Extra: Above-par jacket finding abilities and cab flagging skillz ensured I didn't go home cold, wet and mugged. 5/5

GRAND TOTAL: 17 / 25

Not too shabby, y0.
