Red Card Comedy

I haven't updated any of my gigs lately and I really should have but I've been lazy. My gig before last I was heckled off stage in a show called Red Card comedy. I only had about 30 seconds and the crowd lost the plot and got rid of me. A tad undeserved? I tend to think so but dem's da breaks.

Here's a gig review from Gagging for It - Review

Please note the 4th paragraph, I think they're talking about me...

"By the time a few comics had fallen to the gong, the crowd well and truly had the idea, and their dander was up. The urge to gong seemed to come in waves. It took quite a lot for a comic to be allowed to complete 5 minutes, and if the last one up had done so then it was nearly guaranteed that the crowd would want the next one gonged no matter what, thus ensuring that some of Sydney’s funniest rising comics had barely a chance to deliver their first punchline before the punters were yelling to get them off the stage."

Would I do another gong show? Yeah probably. Would I change my material? Probably not.

Flickr Fan - Update

I think I've lost Diamondjoe.

I haven't heard anything from him since my passive aggressive post commentary from last month. I should've been a man instead of an e-bully and I apologise. If you do read this Diamondjoe, please know that I was confused by your attention and didn't know how to react. I've matured in the past month and I hope you can continue commenting on my horrible photos and sending me windows into your life.

That and I haven't actually updated FlickR for the past month...

I am a Hobo.

But not the littlest Hobo. He's a dog.

My colleague commented that my desk is covered in rubbish. As opposed to showing the whole desk, I've snapped just a sample portion which is where my CPU is.



As you can see, I've drawn a face on an airbag and kept that, I have numerous tazos and the bottom of a can of V. I think hobo is a bit harsh. At worst, I'm a horder. Anyways, none of these are very explainable nor cool, however, I find that the can bottom is closest to cool.

A closer look perhaps?



When you get past the Best Before stuff you'll see it's stamped with CHSEXZAP. I don't know about you but that is perhaps the single coolest can code I've ever seen. Next time I start a game of Pokemon or some other nerdy game where I need to input a character name, I'm calling my character Sexzap. Hopefully he'll be able to fire bolts of sexual lightening from his groin rendering him irresistable to old ladies. Hopefully.

Yesterday's Mentalist.

I got on the train yesterday afternoon and this bloke was standing in the corner. We get to Waverton and he loses his shit. Perhaps the lovely ocean view and the impending impact of development on the leafy foreshore set him off but I think he was truly a mentalist. Not the Simon Denny Baker kind but the kind that shouts at clouds and punches buses.

I really wish I could've taken a photo of him, instead I took a photo of his feet which I think sums it all up.



For the less observant of you his feet are in the top centre. If you needed that hint you were probably the kind of kid that sucked at Where's Wally.

Anyways, my first thought was WTF? After the mouth vommitting and shock I then thought what point did this guy just stop caring about his toenails and say "You know what, I'm just going to let these babies grow"

And that kids is why he's yesterdays mentalist.

Kid thinks he looks like someone else...



The kid on the right reckons he looks like Jermaine from Flight of the Conchords as found on their fan page on facebook. His mate thinks he looks like Brett. Nice try guys.

Let's look at the real Bret and Jermaine



Wow you got the shirts right, nice try once again. You know, the kid on the right looks a lot more like this guy...



Yes it's Paul Pfeifer from the Wonder Years. Poindexter.

First Post for October

I know. It's only 14 days late. I've been slack really but I'll be better. I feel this is like when you 10 and you didn't write in your diary for a long time. I'd write something kinda like this

"Dear Diary,

I'm sorry I neglected you. I've been busy. Today I had Ice blocks and made lego models. It was good.

Love Ray"

Kinda gay I know. I found something today that would have made my good times as expressed above gooderer.

It's the Lego Ice Cube Tray!



I guess it says and shows it all really. Your lego models would be the coolest on the block for sure. Oh! Punintended!

Mr Eivers


Subtle, originally uploaded by Raypower.

Some old fart on the train sat in front of me this morning. I was conetmplating ripping the shirt off his back as well but only stopped when I saw he'd claimed ownership of it.

Don't go stealing his shirt or you too will become an Eivers.

What a clown.
