Beer
Damn, this is ad cracks me up.
Patts always do rad ads for Carlton Draught. The canoe campaign was gold, this is also quite fun.
My only gripe is the way they've executed it. I'm mean, what's the point of putting up an ad that is intended to be a viral piece that has so many obstacles such as secure site warnings and random applets, to actaully see it. Why can't they just put up an mpeg? Or make it a flash video if they wanted it full screen?
Angry
I've noticed that I've become a very, very angry woman lately.
Things shit me so much easier these days, and I rarely go 15 minutes without getting angry and snarky at something or someone.
The rain that came last week? Hurray for mother nature for blessing us with rain, but did she really have to flood certain towns and make people loose their homes?
The Shane Warne saga? Who gives a fuck; there are more newsworthy stories out there.
The skanky 18 year olds at the bar last Friday night, for fuck's sake have some more self respect and not let older, perverted men feel you up in public. I didn’t need to see his hands working their um, magic, down south through your pants.
The protestors for the workplace reforms? Yes, the fact the government has control of both houses of Parliament and now has the power to introduce their harsh and completely unfair laws on those people who deserve the right to fair workplace relations is fucked but damn, YOU ALL HAD THE CHANCE TO MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD AT THE ELECTION. YOU REMEMBER THAT OPPORTUNITY YOU HAD TO EXERCISE YOUR DEMOCRATIC RIGHTS? WHERE THE FUCK WERE YOU ALL WHEN YOU HAD THE CHANCE TO PREVENT THE HOWARD GOVERNMENT COMING BACK TO POWER? LABOR GOT WHOPPED; DID YOU ALL THINK IT WAS A LABOR RUMOR THAT THE GOVERNMENT WAS GOING TO DO THIS?
Perhaps it's the stress at work that has made me more highly strung and riled up than usual; there are only so many stupid questions I can answer and only so many stupid requests that I can entertain from stupid people day after day before I get driven over the edge.
The other day I chucked the biggest tanty over one of my projects that I ended up sitting on the floor of our studio for 10 minutes to cool down otherwise I would have gone postal over the phone.
And this morning I was ready to slap the man sitting next to me for not answering his mobile while it was ringing incessantly with the most stupid ringtone in the world. Instead of answering it he let it ring out. I DON'T CARE IF YOU ARE TRYING TO AVOID TALKING TO SOMEONE THERE IS AN OPTION TO FUCKING SEND THE CALL TO VOICEMAIL BY PRESSING A BUTTON OR ALTERNATIVELY YOU COULD PUT THE PHONE ON FUCKING SILENT AND SAVE EVERYONE ELSE ON THE BUS THE ANNOYANCE OF HAVING TO PUT UP WITH YOUR RETARDED RINGTONE.
Ahhh, that felt good.
I think I need a holiday.
