decided to have a stab at bringing christianity into office talk. I figured, hey i'm kewl with it.. and i'm the only here that stands to be offended and i understand the greys in the topic that it's not going to happen. Though i'm not offended, i got a little energetic about it so i figured i should vent, and also jot down a few interesting points.

1) "your belief should not be based on whether they (the apostle) were lying or not"
errrr. if the apostles lied about the ressurection, my entire belief system is unfounded and wrong. So in effect it hinges purely on my belief that they didn't lie about it

2) "jesus taught other things beside the ressurection, good morals, doing good things"
i do belief the entire christian faith is based on teh ressurection, again if the apostles lied and the ressurection didnt happen then i would concede that my faith holds no water and merely a physcological yearning for a higher power like zeus

I dont know why this guy found it disturbing that this is the christian belief, its a system of absolute truth, based on one key assumption

It happened or it did not happen.

1) it's good to see that my readership is reaching a record low. It's strange idea that i wish to publish some of my thoughts/happenings on the internet, yet uncomfortable that people i do not know are reading it. To those i do not know, i actively hope that this blog bores you to death. Well, maybe not that far but to the point that you feel u no longer feel the urge to come back and read.

It's like im sitting on a secluded beach on the internet just chilling. Free for all to see, but simultaneously glad that no1 is around to observe.

2) picked up a 500gb harddrive for $99, after a revolution movement instigated at the EHRC office space. A rogue ad touting one super deal inspired the fiery passion of a consumer activist. Was HT baiting customers to their new store by placing an advert that was basically too good to be true? so good that it sold out in the first 4 hrs of the 1 week promotion? The debate was intense and unresolved. Trying to calm the water, i encouraged him to see how it panned out the next day. Alas, i had to conceed that HT was not acting in good faith and i was infected by the fiery passion for consumer rights.

"We should complain to the ACCC about them. This shit is baiting, it's unethical and illegal",  "we should ask for a raincheck!", "dammit WE WANT THESE DRIVES" It all culminated to one statement. "Let's call the store and tell them if we don't get drives we're gonna goto the ACCC"  (how nerdy)

Inspired with anger and passion I raised my hand. The call was furious starting off with a good legal jab to the head, deftly feinted by the "limited stock"  or the "stock maybe coming in... " line of defence. But i was not to be dismissed so easily.. legal fencing went on but with a few drops of "we", "us 4" and "that's fine, i guess only the ACCC can resolve our differences" the walls were down and the white flag was waved. "Fine sir, we will place an order for you, and if stock comes in, we will hold it for you".

But victory was shortlived. The motion was negated by the store manager's return call. The deadpan delivery, the dismal of my arguments, the redirection of blame, i can no describe it, I did not like this person i was talking to. It was concluded as an impasse. "I encourage you to take the complaint further" WELL NNOOOOOOOWWW I BLOODY WILL.

sleep. 8am. *ring* "4 hard drives have been put aside for you, please come in today and you can pick them up"

Called up my mates and claimed our prize for being such whiny bitches!
