Chookspot!: March 2013

http://chookspot.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html

Friday, March 29, 2013. The LG Optimus L3 E400 - A Phone So Bad It Needs Its Own Awareness Ribbon. I'm going to start this review off with a backstory because like most great tragedies, the stage needs to be set. This is after all a historical piece. Back in September of last year, some junkie swiped my iPhone 4. I quickly logged onto iCloud, said three Hail Stevens, and remotely wiped and locked the device. I'm broke and cranky - I need your cheapest smartphone! YOU ONLY HAD ONE JOB. Look, I Make Photo.

Chookspot!: February 2009

http://chookspot.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html

Tuesday, February 24, 2009. Help I'm being stalked by frangipani stickers. For some retarded reason I decided to go and get myself ill earlier this week. The biggest pain about being sick is not the "I can't move and I think I spat out my lung" part, but going to the doctor. I'm sure I'll cover that in more detail soon (I HATE WAITING ROOMS) but I'm going to have a little informal chat to all my readers about something very close to my heart. I was kind of okay with that. It might have been because I...

Chookspot!: January 2009

http://chookspot.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html

Thursday, January 29, 2009. The revenge of the two minute noodle. I'll let you make your own jokes up about that heading because it just sells itself. What I'm actually going to talk about tonight is the delight of two minute noodles. The yanks call it Ramen, but I think that's stupid. I have this thing where if I'm after a serving of two minute noodles, I won't even wait those two minutes. If the situation is so bad that I am eating two minute noodles. I hear you cry, "That's nasty! The packet says 'Ins...

Chookspot!: Tweety Bird dies, buried with english muffin. News at 11

http://chookspot.blogspot.com/2009/03/yes-im-still-alive.html

Sunday, March 29, 2009. Tweety Bird dies, buried with english muffin. News at 11. Yes, I'm still alive. Sorry to disappoint. The reason I have not been doing my weekly updates like a good little chook is because I've actually been in a good mood. No rage, no writing – them's the rules. Luckily for you all, a lunchtime trip to the Westfield Warrawong Food Court has solved all your dramas while giving me another fucking headache to deal with. A McDonald's, KFC and Subway.

Chookspot!: Well this certainly won't go down well

http://chookspot.blogspot.com/2009/09/well-this-certainly-wont-go-down-well.html

Monday, September 28, 2009. Well this certainly won't go down well. As an Australian, I've seen many moments of national outrage unfold. Hey Hey It's Saturday being cancelled, Corey Worthington or whatever his name was, but I now hold a special place for every single man, woman and child who was at the Melbourne Cricket Ground during the first quarter break of the AFL Grand Final on Saturday when the name of the new Vegemite was announced. Fucking it up the ass. THIS is on par with the crowd's reaction w...

Chookspot!: Do they make training wheels for yachts?

http://chookspot.blogspot.com/2009/09/do-they-make-training-wheels-for-yachts.html

Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Do they make training wheels for yachts? That rang in my head as I was offered the chance to have a go at his dirtbike. Nevermind that I've never ridden a motorcycle before or had much of an idea how a clutch operated. It can't be too hard! I remember thinking, as I revved the bike and waved to my mum who was jumping up and down, protesting over the ning-ning. Of the engine. 'Just like riding a really loud BMX! OH SHIT LOOK OUT THERE'S A FUCKING BOAT BEHIND YOU. Her mother we...

Chookspot!: I'm absolutely NOT an internet gangsta

http://chookspot.blogspot.com/2009/04/im-absolutely-not-internet-gangsta.html

Monday, April 6, 2009. I'm absolutely NOT an internet gangsta. Newsflash, genius. It's not. I go onto Facebook to get in contact with people. I don't visit the site and think to myself "Well, shit. You know what I'm missing out on in life? Does ANYBODY ELSE see how incredibly fucking stupid this is? In [fucking stupid Facebook application]. No, fuck you, die in a fire, it was a 'Piss Off Everybody' button you clicked because if you did. I'm not joining your mob. I'm not a vampire, pirate or viking an...

Chookspot!: We Were All Thinking It

http://chookspot.blogspot.com/2009/03/we-were-all-thinking-it.html

Thursday, March 12, 2009. We Were All Thinking It. Now don't get me wrong, I love the Japanese. They're a polite and technologically advanced people. Show me any activity on Earth and I could find a Japanese person who has dedicated their life to perfecting it. But to be honest, I think I'm developing a love/hate relationship with the place. I really want to visit, but I'm not quite sure what I'll find there. Here are a few Japanese things that we should all be thankful for:. Sony Corporation, Ltd. I kno...
