Devastator

Last sunday I saw Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen with some friends who were quite knowledgeable on the subject. So much so that they knew the guy I refered to as the 'giant sandy sucky guy' was really called Devastator. 

Like most mondays I returned to school for my daily slave labour and at lunch time a friend and I had an argument about what the 'giant sandy sucky guy's' name was. So we had a slap bet, famous from How I met your Mother. He believed that the 'giant sandy suck guy' wasn't called Devastator as the 'tank' Decepticon from the first Transformers movie was called Devastator. I knew better as my knowledgeable friends informed me that 'giant sandy sucky guy' was called Devastator. Anyway the friend I had a bet with and myself checked on the most reliable source on the internet. Wikipedia. It revealed that the 'giant sandy suck guy' in Revenge of the Fallen was called Devestator. BUT the tank guy from the first Transformers movie was called Devestator too. Though he was meant to be called 'Brawl'.

As for the movie, I would rate it very low when comparing it to good movies, but when comparing to action movies based on robots and explosions it was pretty good.

Complaints Ahoy!

Hello fellow blog readers, I myself must admit that I have not engaged in publishing a blog before in my life and frankly, used to consider blogs a conduit to whine to our hearts content and then pray that somebody listens. I half believe this is still the case.

Rest assured, as I add to this blog I will furnish you with interesting topics for discussion at your local alcohol consumption and distribution checkpoints (ie. Pubs). However, these opinions will no doubtedly hold some biased and incomplete view of society, because otherwise I would buck the trend of blogs all together, and therefore run the risk of being labelled an "emo" for my resistance to conforming! (Oh, the horror of it all...).

The other blogger on this blog is Michael, and I'm sure together there will be something vaguely interesting for somebody, somewhere to read. If worst comes to worst, our blog may be subject to radical changes that result in it being transformed into a "Learn English Fast" scam--*AHEM* Website.

I'm sure I've worried the unfortunate readers enough for one blog and as such would like to direct them to the big X in the red square in the top right hand corner of the screen. This will promptly close the web browser, saving you from reading anymore words that spew out of my mouth, until my next post of course.

Until then.

Internet, we have lift-off


Well here it is. The launch of my own new blog. It has been 4 years since my old blog closed and I retreated away from the internet phenomenon known as 'blogging'. You may be sitting there in your chair, wondering what type of crazy person I am and what are my motives? Who knows? All I know is that I don't know what my motives are and nobody else does. So internet I leave you with a thought. If you can't have your cake and eat it too, what is the point of having the cake?

Good night and good luck.
