Awesome Epic Bloggy/Neurocam Dream

I dreamt last night that I was Scarlett Johansson in a futuristic, Blade Runner-esque version of Tokyo.

An amalgam of Lindsay Lohan and baby sis’s obnoxious former housemate Anna (who looks – and behaves – quite a lot like Lindsay Lohan) was trying to kill me, ostensibly because she disagreed with my stance on the war in Iraq – although there was some suggestion that she was in fact an agent of the Circle de Luce, and possibly Constance incognito.

An amalgam of JoJo aka Johana and 14-year-old pop starlet JoJo (heavily pregnant and smoking like a bastard, natch) had been assigned by the mythical, non-existent organization Fiat Nox to protect me.

JoJo/JoJo eventually took out Lindsay Lohan/Anna/Constance with a sniper rifle from a rooftop, then immediately went into labour. I had to fly her to hospital in a helicopter, causing me tremendous anxiety because I was not technically allowed to fly a helicopter without a fully licensed helicopter pilot riding shotgun. But it felt like the least I could do.

I can’t remember what happened after that. I think I may have crashed the helicopter into a building. But we both came out of it alright.

Deadsoybean appeared as a shadowy double-agent of ambiguous motives.

The role of Bill Muwway was played with infinite worldweariness – and serious delirium – by Avery Cardoza.

And comic relief was provided by Cheshire Cat, who appeared as an endearing idiot man-child constantly asking strange and irrelevant questions. Occasionally he would also sing Wesley Willis classics such as Fuck You and Cut That Mullet. These interludes were mounted in the style of elaborate Bollywood production numbers.

In the end, the whole situation turned out to have been deliberately engineered by machiavellian Melblogerati queen Ms Fits, so that she could adapt it into a tv show, then post about how clever she’d been.

Fish Sticks & Salad

(And cheap champagne.)

Fish sticks & salad

In homage to Lady J.

I would normally never eat fish sticks (actually, in Australia, we call them ‘fish fingers’) but my sister has about 80,000 of them in her freezer for some reason.

They must have been on sale.

H Is For House

Moved into my sister’s place this arvo. It’s great here. I feel like I’m on holidays.

Pretty much everything I have to say today I’ve already said in a comment at Desci’s.

She’s wonderful.

Oh, and Melbourne operative Rorschach has delivered on the nekkid dog pics, and earned his pimp. Check out his blog, it’s not half bad at all.

Finally, as spotted by Tript “don’t call me Tript, it’s weird” Tript, Neurocam.com has changed. Those without freakishly wide screens will want to grab the black bar at the top and scroll along to the right.

The beloved disclaimer screed is gone, replaced by the single phrase “Neurocam is not what you expect.”

How do they know?

Everyone’s Too Stupid

Help The Cat come up with an album title.

Constance is strongly encouraged to comment on this post. I will then wildly over-react to her contribution, totally regardless of how valid or sensible it may be, and, when she calls me on it, deny that I am annoyed, claiming she is “making assumptions about my emotional state”. After that, she may get mildly snarky, and I will tell her to “lay off”, and suggest that the thread has become “retarded” and that this is her fault. She may then accuse me of being on crack, and I will delete the entire post, so as to definitively have the last word.

Then, perhaps, we will both realise how silly we have been, kiss (virtually, of course), make up and be friends again.

That is what I hope will happen.

UPDATE – I include myself in the above statement.

Yay!!

You are OS X. You tend to be fashionable and clever despite being a bit transparent.  Now that you've reached some stability you're expecting greater popularity.

Gagblat in “Not Loved By Anybody” Shock

My esteemed colleague Henry Gagblat is an insufferable whinger, but I do feel his pain, because I’m very sensitive and stuff – and also because I’m quite a lonely soul myself. Unlike him, though, I question the utility of using one’s blog to howl into the void about it.

I have done so on occasion, but it didn’t help.

I expect he brought it upon himself, anyway.

Some People Find These “Weblogs” To Be A Waste Of Time

But I don’t believe in time, so it’s not a concern I share.

If, six months ago, you’d told me I’d one day be using this blog as an excuse procrastinate on the execution of actual proper Neurocam business, I’d have told you to get t’fuck – but that, dear readers, is the situation you find me in this evening. It feels very odd.

I’ve been pimping other peoples’ blogs of late; now I’m gonna pimp a kebab shop, which also feels odd. Ali Baba – an institution in my native Canberra – has just opened an outlet on Fitzroy Street and I’m so glad. I’ve patronised it twice already this week. I instinctively feel the urge to post a pic of the screwed-up wrapper of the first-rate chicken kebab I just consumed, but alas I have no camera anymore.

(Which is really no good, incidentally. I worry about the future of the ‘Fields – for the first time since I started it I have no embryonic posts in reserve, no camera so I can’t just take random pics and throw ’em up.. and Neurocam have effectively all but silenced me by way of promotion. So, if anyone has any novel ideas for posts – please, let’s hear ’em.)

As fate would have it, the manager of this Ali Baba is none other than the guy who used to manage their establishment in Garema Place, where I was at one time a very regular customer. He greeted me warmly and we exchanged witheringly disparaging remarks about the Can’, as is customary amongst ex-residents. It was great. All I need now is billies and baby sis (mmmmmmm….. billies….), and it would be like I never left. But, you know, in a really good way – because, in fact, I have.

Another thing I’m putting off even as I type is cleaning my flat, a process which is half-finished (the place is in complete disarray – don’t see pic, not attached) and needs must be completed post haste as I am shortly to be vacating for a month. I’m gonna be housesitting for boringly-grown-up-sis from next Tuesday whilst she is away meeting her fiance’s folks in Sweden.

I’ll have a whole house to myself – but for Sammy – and as I was saying to the two neuroblogerati luminaries (one of whom famously described Canberra as “a nice place to die”) with whom I partook of a most pleasant and interesting coffee or two earlier in the evening, I’d really love to bring Tahiti to Fitzroy and throw a bitchin’ Neuroparty (would Robin Hely come, I wonder?). Confoundingly, however, I just spoke to the lady of the house and she blew this idea straight out of the water point blank, supposedly on the grounds that there is too much expensive photography equipment lying around the place.

Yeah right.

That’s the last time I pimp your goddamn cruddy half-finished website, bitch.

Hmph.

(long pause)

Oh well.

More Blog Pimpage

I have decided that people are not paying enough attention to Deadsoybean. Also, Reanimator has a personal blog, which is pretty cool. He has a bonsai. I like bonsais. They’re good.

Graham Is Back

And it sounds like he’s had quite an interesting month. Although not in a Neurocam-related way, of course.

Also, I just heard from Melbourne Wintermute, who some will remember from Bolte Bridge etc. He’s had put his operative status on hold due to other commitments but hopes to be rejoining the ranks later in the month.

Writing Under The Influence

UK operative Alexis has seduced me with the promise of nekkid dog pictures (I know, I’m too easy) into plugging her blog.

Check it out; she has a more impressive scar than mine.

Wither Graham Henstock?

The granddaddy of neuroblogging appears to have died.
Perhaps he said too much.

And the neurowiki has been taken down due to the recent spate of spam attacks. But Dev assures us it will be back and better than ever. Yay!

I like the wiki. It’s good.

I Love Youse All

Except the last three people, I don’t know you. But I’m sure you’re very special.

It’s all (virtually) happening! We have pathos; we have bacchanalian excess; we have uncircumcised dick; we have happy snaps. We have crazy pink paedophile fun.

And look, I bought some new bowls:

New bowls

New bowls! It’s all happening!

Neurocam! (not really)

I dreamt last night that I was bitten by a tarantula at the behest of Chris Titan. It really hurt. Woke me up.

Perhaps I have underestimated him.

Perhaps not.

Jojo & Lady J have both updated, finally.

Neither of them had anything much ‘Cam-related to say either.

Amusing Stats Update

Number of people who followed the ‘revolting menstrual sex’ link: 21. You know who you are.

I love this blog.

It’s strange. The hits on my old neuroblog used to stay pretty steady, but this one seems to be getting more popular all the time. I’ve been whoring it more I suppose.
