Got my DVDs! :D

Yay!! My sister and I watched The Count of Monte Christo (awesomeness!!) and Marie Antoinette last night and we're going to watch Stardust tonight.
And I watched Let Them Eat Cake during the day, hilarious as ever.

The electricity was cut off this morning at about 10am. I just happened to walk into the kitchen and I saw a huge cloud of smoke rising from just behind the shops, where the guys are doing roadworks. Fucking bastards E.On....... Fuckers.....

I really do need to go on a diet now. Jokes aside, I've gained serious weight since I started working but because of my knee joint hurting every time I do something simple like jogging, I can't do anything strenuous. Which doesn't help. Anyone got any ideas on any exercises which I can do without having to run or putting a great deal of stress on my knees??

Back to uni pretty soon..... That bitch better get back to work pretty soon. My dad gave her a call last week but she's not answering. Does anyone else suspect that she's not working because she knows I'm here to cover for her? She better fucking be here this week because I don't want to have to leave my dad without someone on the counter. Especially on the weekends, Fridays and Saturdays get pretty busy and we tend to have a few people in on Sundays as well.

I have no idea how we're going to cope. It already gets pretty rushed when there are three people in the kitchen, how the hell is it going to be with only two people?! It doesn't help that she can't really time how long it takes for us to actually complete an order. A medium sized order (generally about £15-20) will take 15 minutes, add another 10 minutes if busy just to be safe. And yet she tells them it will be 10 minutes regardless of how busy it is and how tired we are. I'd rather peopletheir 10 minute order will take 15 minutes because it means we don't have to do the whole "it's just going to be another few minutes" and we haven't even started cooking it yet. But the stupid girl insists on ignoring my advice and saying "damn, maybe I should've told them 20 minutes rather than 5" then trying to backtrack and say "oh, your dad is really fast at cooking anyway so it won't take long".
Yes, my dad is fast, but he can't finish a £50 order in less than 20 minutes while it's busy. Take note, you dumb idiot, that it's only my dad cooking and my mum frying. I'm taking care of the packing and various other miscellaneous tasks. She's been working here since April and she still hasn't learned anything. She still gets sauce everywhere, burning her fingers in the process, when she's pouring it into the cups. She takes orders out when they're not actually complete, which means I have to go through the humiliating apologies to the customer and offer a refund, which also means I'M the one who has to listen to their abuse. The girl is fucking useless!!

Gawd, I planned on talking about something else but I ended up ranting about the takeaway again....

Sod it, while I'm ranting and venting. Does anyone else abhor those crappy women's adverts?? The worst culprit being Gillette Venus. I fucking hate that product and I'd rather have hairy legs than buy and use that.


"Inside every woman, there is mystery... Magic... Power... Passion... Spirit... And substance..."

Mystery being some woman dancing in a bubble.
Magic is some hippy spinning in a circle with flower petals to show her delicacy.
Power. Running along on the fucking beach. With that fucking runners face (the chicken asshole mouth for breathing, the hands clenched tightly [possibly to make her more streamlined and therefore, allowing her to run faster??] and the pure [cough] determination on the lady's face....)
Ooooo, PASSION!! My fucking favourite!! Jezuz, she has such hardcore passion it's just literally bursting out from her and is depicted as the bursting firey flamey flamess from behind because she's so freaking passionate about.... Whatever it is she's passionate about!
Spirit. No idea, lets just stick a couple of women flicking water at each other.
Substance... Hmm.... Fuck it, substance is someone painting.

"Reveal the goddess in you". You are a woman. You are beautiful. YOU HAVE GODDESS IN JOOOOOO.

You know what my sister and I yell out every single fucking time this plays on the telly?

"I AM A STONG, INDEPENDANT, WORKING, WOMAAAAAAN!!"

And I'm guessing that the target audience it's aimed at doesn't really take much notice of it and sales must be pretty low because it's been the same advert for too long and it seems to play every single fucking time I turn the TV on.

I'm not even going to get started on the choice of song.

"I BE A STRONG WOMAAAAAAAAAN!! THEREFORE I USE GILLETTE VENUS THEREFORE I BE A GODDESS!!!!!"

And fucking skin care adverts immensely fuck me right off, specifically stuff like spot creams/cleansers/etc. Actors/Actresses/Models are used who have no freaking spots anyway.
If you want to impress me, send me your fucking product and I will use it. The ad will consist of photos taken everyday after using your cream/cleanser. WITHOUT make up, without enhancements. My natural, crappy skin. Don't make me stay the fuck away from your product by using someone who has NO SPOTS WHATSOEVER then making them say "oh, look, this product is so great, my non-existant spots have disappeared before my very eyes!"

My belly is complaining for food after all this venting so I'm just going to quickly bash the Mazda ad as well.
It just infuriates me, the shittiness of that commercial! WTF?! I'm guessing it has something to do with the "fitness" shit, but it still gets a huge "WTF?!" look on my face from me.

WTF?!

The person who came up with that should be shot. Dead. Four times.

Next time, look out for my ranting on stuff like mascara and shampoo!!

rant, real life
