I hate seeing rubbish actors acting “real”, spouting what was written for them as natural dialogue. It makes my skin crawl, bile rise and blood boil. Not least because I can be a terrible actor and have been guilty of the same before.

Still, I feel like I missed out somewhat on free stuff.

So, has the Bakery migrated to Windows 7 yet? :)

We should do a spoof of this. I suggest maybe ‘ Terrorism prevention software party’.

I hope you’re being sarcastic about the Windows 7 party “Oprah.”

Otherwise you need to get new friends . . .

I thought you all should know that my friend Steve really IS having a windows 7 dance party tomorrow night! He said if I come I will get a free tote bag. Ha! Apparently microsoft gives loads of free stuff (ie napkins & streamers as well as a $400 version of Windows 7) for having these ridiculous parties. I think you guys really may be missing out on not having Dan’s birthday Windows 7 themed.

Filming of said party may also be in store. I’ll keep you guys posted on that one. Undoubtedly it will be no more than a loud grungy kegger, which come to think of it, may be culturally insightful for some (namely Tom German). Nevertheless I think sending it to Microsoft would be hilarious.

I look forward to it Al.

I’m planning on leading an overview of some of my favourite Windows 7 features.

At this party Windows 7 will basically be like an honoured guest.

We’re having a Windows 7 Party tomorrow night, so i’ll try my best. I’ll even have a crescendo of running through the hints and tips, in traditional Chinese.

This is absolutely and utterly the biggest piece of crap that I’ve ever seen. I am so confused by it. By its very existence. By the human who came up with the idea. By the people who had to work on it. By the weird post-production shakey camera effect. The inconsistencies (with people holding food to their lips, which then cuts to them with a drink there instead), the angles, the blonde woman’s face at 5.48.

But most of all, that silly tosser on the left at 6:11! I feel violently ill.
