Things Pithdog Hates

Well anyway, everyone thinks I’ve had too many drinks to be making a blog post; I haven’t made one for two months, and I, for some odd reason, all-of-a-sudden feel compelled to make a blog post. Bradleigh informs me that I’m too drunk to be making one, but I’ve only had a very insignificant amount, so I’m pretty damn sure I’m okay :)

So anyway, the funniest thing happened before. I think it’s funny, but hmm. It’s uhh… Probably not eyy? Haha. Anywho, before we (the people tagged in this post) were talking about DTF. And for a few minutes everything was ok, discussion was going as normal. Then, we exclaim that DTF means ‘Down To Fuck’ and brad’s like WTF MAN? and we’re totes like, yeah man thats true. BUT THEN BRAD’S ALL LIKE OMG MAN, I THOUGHT IT WAS ‘DOOMED TO FAIL!’ hahahhahaha.

MORAL OF THIS SUPER SWEET SIXTEEN (STORY) is that Bradleigh Holcombe suckssssss.

I’ve been making this blog post have worse and worse grammar as time goes on. Funny that eyy?

Anywho, recents developments being; Making a bitching website for Michelle, my gorgeous girlfriend, mother; Working like a dawg at Image Direct; Being a total gangsta DJ; Pulling SAC (mini exam) scores out of my ass (no classwork, no study, 80%+ scores easily); And just generally having a super awesome time.

My DJ Ubiquity album is up to like five songs; Bradleigh and I have two plus awesome projects coming up, to be released in the next few months (although now that I’ve blogged about them they’ll never actually happen ;) ) and I really think life is fantastic.

Also I love Michelle :) she’s like… Super cool awesome-dudely. ;)

The Times They Are a-Changin’

It’s absolutely amazing how much can change in such a little time; but whilst your experiencing the time you can hardly notice the changes. When you take a step back, and take a look at the last few months of your life, you realize how things have changed. Some of these changes for the better; others for the negative; all in all though – changes.

Six Months ago I was about to go on an outback to Central Australia. Six Months ago tomorrow was Toby Wrights 16th birthday. Six Months ago, things were looking crazy-awesome positive! I had larger reserves of money; I had been working at Image Direct for a mere 3 months; I had 10 days of outback, 14 days of school holidays, then 24 days in China, all within 2 months! School could go suck it in my opinion.

Although; Six months ago, I was lonely. Six months ago, I didn’t have a PS3, a 40′ tv, a Mac. Six months ago, I was in Year 10 at Baby Kurnai. Six months ago, I had quit football, deserting my team/coach and turning my back on Captaincy responsibilities. Six months ago I was 15, and unable to drive a car (with supervision).

Today I have a consolidated group of best friends. These people are my rock; they keep me stable, keep me going day to day. I rely on them a lot, more then any of us can understand. I was originally scared that our paths would fork with the transition to the GEP; but that was far from the truth – I’d say we’re all better friends now then we’ve ever been.

Bradleigh Holcombe, Jason Rendell, Toby Wright and myself (The original crew); have picked up long time SUPER BEST FRIENDS Michelle Prezioso and Suzie Moss as new members of the Crew; and also have long time friend, and recently turned Crew member, Breanna Downes-Smith; and the still-to-be-initiated Lauren Peters as the final addition to the Crew.

These are the people you’ll find me hanging out with at school; chilling in classes with; hanging over at KFC with; going to the movies with; going to parties with; hanging after school with; conversing with; EXISTING WITH; loving with; fighting with. If i’m ever doing something, the safest bet in existence is to put your money on these people being involved.

Being a RIDGEY DIDGE AUSSIE BLOKE, I don’t always tell Brad, Jason and Toby how much they mean to me. As gay as it sounds, I would feel lost and incomplete with the Crew, members new and old.

Time is constant. It doesn’t slow, it doesn’t speed up (unless you have a fully sick spaceship or something). Live every moment to the full, and never let someone undermine what you love doing – if you love doing it, it is always worth going the extra mile for. Don’t complain that you wan’t to be older, younger, smarter, prettier, skinnier, taller; work with what you have, improve on what you can improve, and live life in the now.

Stop worrying about the future/past and start worrying about the present. You can’t change the past as it’s already happened, and your future depends on the actions you take in the present.

You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone; don’t let the things you love get away.

Pithdog is back in business, and it’s a fucking fantastic feeling. <3 xx

Sandwiches, Softporn and Sealed Air Bags

Today, many things occurred. Originally it was just the one occurence, and I contemplated blogging about it. I was hesitant, but then all these other things happened and I felt obliged.

Thing number one, me and Pither encountered the devil; at least the form he takes on when in the physical plane. It was something you never wish to see or become part of, but sadly I am giving you no choice. You will be told.

——–

‘Twas the beginning of lunch and me and Ryan were fast becoming ravenous, so I altruistically opted to buy all of the lunches (all of them) because Ryan didn’t have tangible cash on him.

This was the first of many grave mistakes.

We each chose a “Chilli Chicken Wrap”. A frightening abomination, hidden behind the deceptive facade of such a tantalising name. We gently scooped up these seemingly wholesome snacks from the lukewarm bain-marie they sat so provocatively in. It only took one deft scoop to realise something was amiss: these repasts were unusually dense.

I reasoned with myself that this was due to a gratuitous amount of succulent chicken nestled deep within the heart of the meal. I was wrong, and soon I would pay for my ignorance.

We mastered the checkout, pausing only momentarily to see if they had overcharged us. They had, but comparatively this superfluous charge was a mere misdemeanour.

Ryan and I seated ourselves at a distant table, preparing ourselves for what we assumed was a delicious Chilli Chicken Roll. I became aware of something that had only then became apparent: the rolls were wrapped in a thin cocoon of plastic wrap. I thought it was general knowledge that hot food sweats when wrapped air tight!

I worriedly peeled back this erroneous entanglement, discovering the truth behind the absurd weightiness of the snack: it was…

Damp.

What was once a delicassy, had become deluged with dampness.

I wept a single tear, adding to the already gratuitous amount of moisture that could be found pooling at the bottom of this ruined repast.

I was determined to press on, and bravely slid my fingers through the pool of malice, nestling them safety against the underbelly of this eelish grub.

I gave my mouth all necessary prepatations for engulfing this amphibious morsel, but was not prepared for what came next. My mouth began to fill with a searing liquid, heat eminating from it that could rival the sun itself.

I couldn’t commit the social faux pas of regurgitating the food from my mouth, and as such I was forced to swallow.

Agony.

Agony, manifested as a tomato slid at a snails pace down my throat. I was speechless. Nothing could prepare somebody for the gauntlet this once harmless nourishment presented to me and Ryan that day.

My mortal body was taxed out, reaching it’s limit of pain and endurance. It would have only taken the slightest of pushes to tip me over the edge. With an implied smirk, the Beast provided exactly that. With the next bite, pain no longer blinded me. I could see, moreover taste, this snack for what it truly was. And with that bite, I tasted only egg.

I hate egg! It’s yucky! [sic]

With this crushing blow, my entirety reached it’s threshhold. No amount of satisfaction could justify the completion of this catastrophic encounter.

I refolded the plastic that has contributed to the spawning of this hellwrought entity. I once more scooped it up within my feeble grasp. I walked the walk of shame and concession.

With one sluggish movement, I dumped the flaccid snack where it belonged, in the trash receptacle.

It sneered at me as I walked back to the table; hands over the side of my head.

Ryan patted my back when I returned, consoling me from the withered state I had entered.

It was a day I won’t soon forget.

Exeunt.

Sorry I couldn’t get any photos of that disgusto thing, my hands were like COVERED in egg water. It was the grossest stuff, but I guess you already heard all about it. Ryan ended up being guilted into eating the whole thing because I paid for it. Honestly, that thing was so rank I would’ve paid for him not to finish it. I’m not even sure if he’s still alive :/

Okay so up there, I mentioned that there were numerous things, and I’m a man who doesn’t lie about how many things I say occur. The exclusion to this rule is when I use the hyperbole “all the things” in which case I am suggesting at an inquantifiably large number of things that is in no way infinite.

I think people would pay for me to stop writing right now.

Well those guys can invest that cash in my middle finger ’cause I got SHIT to rant about!

Over at the Fort Unlimited, chief blog writer Iseeyou discovered an asburd art book, entitled “Draw Furries”.

I was in a bookstore today, checking out the art section for some cool graphic design books. Instead I found a book that is simultaneously the best and worst thing. It’s awesome, but I really can’t imagine how family appropriate it could be without ruining the awesomeness of it. I mean, not that I’m voyeuristic or anything.

:0

I’ll just show you the picture then :C

What a wonderful book.

I REALLY hope this is a flipbook.

Sorry about the quality of both this and any other ensuing photos in this post. Not only am I using my shitty phone camera, but also lately my hands have been shaking a bit for some reason. It can’t be coffee because I actually haven’t had that in a while. I think it might be something to do with nutrition or something.
My next news piece involves a package I received in the SNAIL MAIL. I was expecting it to be kind of small, but it turned out to be like, bigger than a backpack. About the same size as my computer tower, and it’s a brute of a thing (in all aspects except performance (the important one :/)).
There isn’t really much to say about it, so here’s a barrage of images:

Hey check out my huge package.

My needs are "URGENT" people, attend to them or face the WRATH.

Instead of bubble wrap or packaging peanuts, I got sealed air bags. They are the best, when you clap them behind people, they burst and EVERYONE IS SHOCKED.

Moving the pen, cord, and air bags aside I looked at the main item. It's my new tablet! Yaaaaaaay!

Here is my new tablet, the Wacom Intuos4 Medium. It is SO much larger than my old tablet.

By way of comparison, here is old v. new. Also some assorted junk near my bed :/

Well, that’s all the things that happened today, but it was all within one day so it was pretty exciting. Also, I think this is a contender for longest blogpost.
I look forward to seeing if Pithdog can “top dis shit” [sic].
Well, catch you all on the flipside, it was nice having something to blog about for once :D

My Name Is… Chicka Chicka ‘Harry Potter’

Thats right folks, I’m not the ‘Real Slim Shady’, although I do have a friend called the real ‘Fat Shady’. But thats a different story. From this moment henceforth, Ryan ‘Pithdog’ Pither, shall be crowned Ryan ‘Harry Potter’ Pither. All shall bow down to this newly knighted ‘Master Of The Ladies’.

Woah woah woah. Was that all a dream? I’m not really the Master Of The Ladies? Damn. O well, I guess being a Harry Potter lookalike in China is good enough :) Yes you heard right. The funny thing is, it isn’t just hormonal Chinese girls who think I’m the handsome Harry Potter. Chinese guys, teachers, parents, little girls and boys. Heck even my Home Stay Mother stated, without any prompt, that I am handsome and look like Harry Potter.

Please keep in mind that I’m not blowing-my-own-horn here, just stating and repeating facts. I have evidence in the form of pictures to show you ;) They’ll be at the end of this post in a gallery.

So yeah today was interesting. We played two soccer matches, and I featured in both. It was Australia vs. China, on a fairly large soccer pitch with about 12v12. We won the first match 3 – 0, with Maddi I believe kicking one of the goals. This was fantastic because Chinese culture is against girls playing certain sports, and to have a girl kick a goal versing boys was fantastic. That and the fact that half our team for both matches were girls. Wooo go girls!

We then drew the second match 2 – 2 after a  intense comeback by us. Halfway through the match we were looking at a 2 – 0 defeat, with no openings and no goals seeming to come. Then all of a sudden, BAM! In 5 minutes we got 2 goals, and the scores were even. Then the school bell rung and overtime started. After a frantic 10 or so minutes of end to end soccer with some courageous plays coming from both teams (I was the main person in one such play), neither team could score, and we drew. So after 2 matches against their 2 of their best groups or teams, we came out without losing.

Anywho I’m insanely tired from all the running (both in soccer and basketball and away from Chinese girls) and general school stuff. Catch you all later!

Pithdog out.

Images will be added tomorrow.

I leave for 5 seconds… To go to China…

Those motherfucking twat-swatting ass-munchers. The second I leave to go to China, “Tak” and “Tro”, come in and rub infection-filled kookaburra semen all over the walls. Like seriously, when you give someone the keys to your humble abode, you don’t expect them to do unspeakable defecation and sexual acts whilst inside your house. If you haven’t already figured it out, I am referencing this blog as if it was my house, SO FUCKING TREAT IT THAT WAY! Now for those frightened by the gratuitous amounts of swearing in this post, what do you expect?  All my other posts contain at least one sample of cursing; I use it as descriptive and emotive language. Seriously, how much dick does Takorii take in the ass?

Anyway, enough bagging out cum-swishing cock-guzzlers.

China is a fucking crazy country. And I mean that in an entirely good way, its fantastic. It’s such an intense culture, and is vastly different to Western society and in particular Australia. There was 2 things I noticed as I landed in China:

  • The permeating and intense heat and mugginess. And its only Autumn here.
  • The lack of sky, stars or anything above. The smog and pollution is that high and thick that the sky is white/gray constantly, and you can never see any stars.

Cars drive on the opposite side of the road to Australia (they drive on the right, we drive on the left) and there is hardly any road rules in China. Driving on the opposite side of the road is normal, and they use their horns for everything… Notifying people that their coming pass, at intersections, turning corners. I’m only just getting used to them using their horns, as in Australia its rare to hear a horn (its usually used in Road Rage). The food here is different to the stereotypical “Chinese Food” portrayed in Movies and in Australian Culture. It isn’t just rice rice rice, its quite the opposite. Rice is typically eaten at the end of a meal to fill up, or you have a small bowl of it next to your food, and as you eat your meal, you put some rice in with each mouthful of food. Rice hardly ever comes pre-mixed with other foods, and is almost always separate. I’m not a pro at chopsticks, but I’m getting very used to eating and sleeping in China. It’s becoming second nature. Plus, my host family absolutely adores me, and today said that they class me as part of the family. My host sister’s son called me uncle. It’s an unbelievable feeling. O and quickly before I go… I AM A FUCKING CELEBRITY IN CHINA. No shit, I’ve had literally, and I mean literally, over 100 GIRLS take photos with me in the last 3 days. And EVERY SINGLE ONE says I’m handsome, and that I also look like Harry Potter. Which I believe is a compliment? Hehe. I’ve also had my picture taken with a fair few guys, but I don’t tell people that :P I get people coming up to me in the streets asking for pictures; it’s near impossible to move throughout the school without being:

  • Stared at
  • Smiled at
  • Pointed at
  • Giggled at
  • Picture Taken
  • Etc Etc

Its pretty intense. Anyway, thats all for today, more tomorrow/next day. I’ll include some picture below off my new camera!
