Caffeine… bringer of so much joy, and as such I enjoy a nice cup of coffee and read my daily dose of Bovine News and yet again I stumble across an arbitrary piece of “shock” journalism that really should be no-news but as its Fox News thats reporting it, I had to laugh.

The article can be here and as far as stating the obvious goes, it does it pretty well. I could’ve told you years ago that young women were going out and intentionally getting pregnant but I’m not going to say “I told you so” because I think a lot of us knew this.

The thing I want to build on from this article is the very last comment below the advert of “Neal’s comments come as figures show England and Wales have the highest rates of teenage pregnancies in Europe — with the biggest growth among girls under 16.”. This is quite a worrying statistic…

I mean why is this just Europe.. surely its then true of the developed world too, I mean what other first world countries are there outside of Europe that have a high rate of teenage pregnancy? I would think even the Chinese (questionably second world) and the educated Indians (again, Second World really…) have curtailed their rutting for their teenage years in favour of a better life so why in the UK are we doing so much fucking?

The simple answer is the welfare state. Most girls can see they are infinitely “more independent” with child so why not have one young and continue spitting them out throughout their lives so they never have to work, and constantly get support from the state. Hell, its got to be better than working in McDonalds… just ask the guy who impregnated them!

I had to laugh that the slag wagon got pregnant on the “first try” with her 13 year old boyfriend… pretty good going as far as I’m aware! Better reporting that than she had a gizzfest with 5 of the local chavs with any one of them potentially being the father, I mean we might be having a lot of teenage pregnancies, but don’t make us out to be promiscuous to boot.

The sooner this Labour government gets the chop the better; a government that started with so much promise and potential and has consistently failed to delivery year after year, consistently shafted the British public year after year, and in actuality, just been spouting hot air for almost three terms now. Somehow the tabloid buying masses haven’t cottoned on to this and this pretentious prick is still the voice of the UK.

The only man who has ever really had my vote ended up being an alcoholic (we smell our own I guess!) and the current wave of ball bags are laughable at best. David Cameron has my vote at the next election, but even he reminds me of that “wannabe cool guy geek” from school that everyone laughed at behind his back because everyone knew he was secretly a douche. The one with all the “radical ideas” that are so painfully middle of the road it makes you cringe. The guy who got drunk a few days before his 18th birthday and was now a “rebel”. The Robert Aide of the Conservative party… (if you didn’t go to high school with me you won’t know who he is but just think David Cameron with Milky Bar kid white hair and you’ll be on the right lines).

I died a little more inside today…

Well London has now 100% fallen through… what a shit load of fuck! It has been one thing after another really and in some respects Im glad it has. They showed as much compassion as Adolf Hitler with a bus load of Jews holding a firebomb to my sob story of why I couldnt make it for my first day and needed some extra time to you know, relocate to the shithole that is London.

He is my sob story:

Dear Adolf,

Well it really has been a weekend of despair and madness, and of plans changing and changing again. Essentially I have been let down by both my places to stay in the London area and in turn, am not going to be able to start without a little help/after a few days of house hunting.

Having only let me know yesterday that my family can no longer put me up, my friend in Northampton let me know he will be away on business for a week, I have been frantically searching for a viable solution all day.

If I had money to burn I would’ve quite simply drove down this afternoon and found a short term B&B until I could find a decent place to rent, but knowing i will undoubtedly need every penny I have for a deposit etc I did not feel this was a great solution. Knowing nothing of London I do not know what areas are good, and what are not, and I would really like to get a thumbs up before jumping into something, even in the short term.

So I’m left with a dilemma, no place to stay and am open to suggestions! I really will need to be in the area to look for a flat, but at the same time I can’t afford to be traveling back and forth to view properties. I really am drawing blanks when it comes to London now as its so expensive, and although Ill be ok once I have a place sorted in the right area, if Im not able to preview anything before hand, or discuss with people experienced in the area (i.e. people at work!) Im a bit lost!

Which leads me to ask for some advice in this scenario. I want to get down as soon as possible but Im a little inexperienced when it comes to renting/relocating and am just out of ideas! I need something cheap and short term, and don’t mind traveling a bit to get in within reason. I hate to have to bring this on you, but I really don’t know what else to do.

I seem to recall you mentioning you are not in tomorrow so I will call to confirm the theme of this email with the number I have, and I’ll hope to hear from you soon. I will do my uttermost to minimise the amount of time it takes to find somewhere to stay.

Kind Regards,
David Brown

Not too weak, not too anything other than you’ve given me a week to relocate to London, plans have changed and are out of my control. This was sent on Sunday night, when I knew there would be no way of me making it.

On Monday I contacted them and spoke to probably the rudest man I have ever had the displeasure of speaking to, their MD.. a supposed Upper Echelon of their team, but he was nothing other than a giant vagina with sand in. Three of the comments that left me with a severely bad taste in my mouth included “We are not a Housing Agent”, “I don’t see how where you live is in any way our problem” and “We have set up a computer for you, that was a complete waste of time”.

To which he left the conversation by telling me Adolf would be in touch and left me know what is going to happen. I immediately contacted my recruiters to let them know what this giant douche had said.

Low and behold, today at about 12pm I got an email off Adolf to let me know the following:

David,

Your unannounced no-show on your first day of employment has sent ripples through the management here at the Cock and Balls Project. This has not only disrupted schedules but also wasted time as various people have been making preparations. This firm has now lost faith in your relationship with us.

Unfortunately, due to the gravity of this situation, we are withdrawing our offer of employment at The Cock and Balls Project. We feel that this is the best route for the both of us.

We wish you all the best for your future.

Best,
Adolf H.

As Paul pointed out, this was a reply to the previous email… doesnt take a genius to realise my no show wasn’t in any way shape or form unannounced! His “ripples through management” comment is pure class… it makes my joining their team sound like a world shattering event, and by not doing so I may have caused the Earth to implode!

So I’m back to the drawing board on the job front… not the best news Ive ever shared but its probably (definately) for the best. Which now leaves me with this…

Hi Pop Pickers… I’ve moved my blog from Yahoo 360 to Blogger for several reasons:

• It allows me greater control over my content, formatting and what I can and can’t do with my works
• It’s a lot more powerful than Yahoo 360 in terms of content
• MySpace is only used by 13 year old kids, paedos and the internet retarded… their interface is horrid and I don’t need a bunch of sycophant faux friends telling me how cool I am, that my work is amazing or asking if I want to buy Viagra.
• Yahoo are a bunch of money grabbing bastards… Google are less so!
• Did I mention I hate Yahoo??

It was a simple choice in the end, so I will be moving all my old posts over to Blogger today, as well as continuing the London debacle and the decisions Ive made regarding it. Catch you all laters dudes and dudettes!

ps. I amending the template to make the blog look more me, and if you are using a resolution less than 1024×768 then be prepared to have to use that scroll bar… Im not punishing my visitors because you cant read small text/are blind.. damn 800×600 websites piss me off!

I was having my usual caffeine break this afternoon when I picked up on the usual spun bullshit that most news networks put out, one that the BBC is usually pretty good a weedling out. I hate the concept of University topup fees at the best of times, and whilst it doesnt immediately affect me, Tony Blair and the Labour government do piss me off. Anyway, I found this article :

Applications to university rise

To which I really had to respond. The Higher Education Minister, Bill Rammell proves himself to be a pompous arsehole, typical of these kind of positions. His comment of :

“These highest ever figures show that tuition fees are not putting students off applying to university, as many predicted. The critics of the new system are being proved emphatically wrong.”

..is cringeworthy at best. These figures in no way prove critics of the new system wrong! How does a system with only one solution that has an increase in popularity instantly justify the new system?! Is this not called Communism?!!??!

Given we are in a “like it or lump it” situation, how are the critics proved wrong? Please, Bill.. just put me straight on this one! I wonder how many students would opt to go to University in other countries given a better choice. All this study goes to show is that University is now easier to get into that Paris Hiltons knickers…

In any case, I had to respond. I have posted my comments just in case the BBC don’t publish them…

As ever, I don’t have all the answers, but Ill voice my opinion when something retarded like this has been slipped into the general stream of palatable media. Thanks Tony, thanks a lot for stinking up the Universities of this country with the idiots that should be serving me my McDonalds at lunchtime. Ill have to make my own butties soon…. geez!

God Bless the BBC, and their totalitarian control of the TV Licensing market in the UK, ruling with an iron fist and demanding their pay. I know of very few other systems where you can demand a subscription fee for an arguably unasked for service (WoW addiction is somewhat like this!). Not really… eff them in the A, the buch of cocklords!

This study proves nothing about the popularity of tuition fees or the “new system”, it is just yet another indication of the slow decline of standards in our secondary schools and colleges. Exams have become easier over the years (thanks to a mixture of dumbing down questions and teaching pupils how to pass the exams rather than educating them) and thus we are left in a predicament where the bovine masses all want to go to University thanks to their 6 AS Levels at grade D.

Giving the false hope that you will be better off by gaining a degree whilst accruing thousands of pounds of debt is ridiculous. I am fortunate enough to be employed on the back of my solid Software Engineering degree; I wonder how many Travel and Tourism Bachelors graduated, only to end up back in a job in something soul destroying?

Thanks Tony, thanks a lot for stinking up the Universities of this country with the idiots that should be serving me my McDonalds at lunchtime. Ill have to make my own butties soon…. geez!
