Announcement: Sideblog Created

I created a Sideblog to keep track of all my random thoughts that don't fit in the public blog. Things like cool websites, news articles without discussion (open for discussion on the Sideblog), random things that pop into my head, etc.

The address is http://www.scatteredthoughts.org/sideblog. I'm still tweaking it's functionality, so it may or may not be up and running soon.

By default, the comments are closed on the site. Some entries that I feel discussion is necessary will be open to comments.

peace out yos!

Instant Karma

In every class there is the jock-ass.

Everyone knows this type. They are the student who is/was an athlete in college/high school, their parents have a lot of money, they have a motorcycle.

They all think they're hot shit.

Well, today I chuckled heartily when I witnessed a jock-ass who lived on my floor my freshman year be utterly embarrassed in front of three decent looking freshmen.

He was out riding his cycle with a bunch of his friends. Some of you may have seen them around campus. They were riding up Fee Lane from 10th Street toward the stadium. The jock-ass stops to flirt with these freshmen.

I would offer you ladies a ride, but there's only room for one

At this time, the guy behind him honks his horn in frustration because he's starting to hold up traffic. Jock-ass decides it would be a good idea to try to speed off on his bike.

So he gives it gas…

…and subsequently stalls his bike on the middle of Fee Lane. The ladies start laughing their heads off at his "most embarrassing moment" as he re-starts his bike and speeds down the street.

I love it when I get to witness Instant Karma. It's hilarious.

Hope you enjoyed the story, I'll post more later.

peace

The End-of-the-Blog Rundown

Current Mood – Elated

Until the next post…

Darwin Award Recipient

I don't know if any of you read CNN news regularly, but I found this article today while I was at work. Basically this man attached a GPS ready cell phone to his ex's car complete with a motion detector to turn the phone on when the car moved. He then programmed the phone to update a website so he could track this woman's traveling. He would show up randomly at places where she was.

You may be asking "Why does this man disserve the Darwin Award? This is a pretty slick scheme to stalk someone." The flaw in the system is that to keep the battery charged, Ara needed to actually physically change it… The woman caught him while he was changing the battery.

Here's a piece of advice I learned in my class about cheating. I'll give it to you all free of charge. If you're going to cheat someone, be a sore loser. Make sure there is no way you can be caught and/or there is no way they can turn around and cheat you.

The simple solution to Ara's problem… Wire a power inverter to the alternator and directly to the cell phone. This way the battery never needs to be changed.

I guess these are the thing you overlook when you're an assbutt.

That's all for now, I'm out!

peace
