Bitch vs. Idiot
Posted on January 23, 2008 @ 23:41I finally managed to get to a bank and exchange the wad of dollar bills I had left from my trip to New York in October. Stumbling into a DnBNOR at Aker Brygge, I soon sat down with a black-clad teller in her fifties and asked her if it was possible to exchange my dollars and make a deposit.
Sure, that’s a pretty stupid question (it’s one of the things a bank is for, after all), and I’ll admit right away that I’m a bit of an idiot in these kinds of situations, but still always on my best behaviour. The lesson she gave me in “How Not to Treat a Customer” was totally uncalled for.

Goon Tower
Posted on January 3, 2008 @ 6:42Just found out Something Awful’s Goon Tower project is finished and online at GoonTower.com. It’s an enormous pixel-art collaboration project, with floors by hundreds of “goons” (forum members) including two by yours truly. The amount of pop-cultural references in there is just staggering, ranging from Hollywood blockbusters to obscure internet phenomena. Can you spot them all?
