My Hot Co-Worker Is Brilliant
Filed under: Vexed - January 13, 2008 @ 6:00 am
Here’s the thing: I’ve interacted online with enough people down under to start to think that Australians (men only?) are FREAKS and New Zealanders are awesome.
My hot co-worker (who looks like Charlotte from Sex and The City and says things like, “Oh fuck nuts!”) and I were looking over an Australian guy’s website who wanted to work for our company. Naturally I can’t link to it, but here are a couple excerpts from his “About” page:
“One should cultivate one’s garden, I thought with Voltaire, and avoid the negative emotions that go with contemplating all the death, destruction and ugliness that are out there beyond the personal sphere.”
“I see myself as ‘humana’ in a sense unrelated in important ways to nature…”
My co-worker’s response to that? “What the fuck does that mean?” She then went on to declare, “Self-analysis is the highest form of masturbation.”
I laughed and she said, “It’s true - ever talk with someone about yourself for an extended period of time, and at the end you feel like, ‘wow, glad I got that out’ and kind of dirty?”
Um, yes.

An interesting story that makes one ponder the nature of the universe, the meaning of life, and all the difficult questions that have plagued our species since the earliest times.
However, the first thing that comes to my mind; is your co-worker single?

Here is another quote from his “about” page:
“I don’t have any wise elders to tell me what life is about, to tell me how life should be lived and what should be valued.”
Really? Don’t you claim to read Voltaire. What is he?
Fucknut.

Wow, I’ve been jacking-off like Canadian pimp for years and never knew it!

by my estimation, he’s a total douchebottle. And, a self righteous one at that.
ps. I love your panties.

New Zealanders are much nicer than Australians
