Yes, my life is still grand.
No, I don’t really post here.
Am I still a self absorbed arrogant asshole determined to enforce the notion that my life exceeds the highs and lows of yours? Of course.

And what have I been up too?
Oh, grand things, you netphorian, grand things.

In the last week alone I’ve dug into the chest cavity of a dead human cadaver. I’ve pulled on the exposed tendons to make crude hand gestures, and felt among the muscles for bones and nerves.

I’ve built a wall unit and learnt 3 new songs on my new guitar. I made fun sounds on my new effects pedal.

I’ve been invited to tour with a local band here to Mozambique. Not as a musician, but because they like me. And cause I’m doing their album artwork. Ho ho.

I’ve got into a fight on the side of the road with a strange food delivery guy (South Africans will recognise the term ‘Mr Delivery’. Fuckers. I hope I made him late and he had to pay for the food).

I painted a 4 meter x 2 meter mural on a wall. Was it pretty? God damn it was. Would you expect less? I doubt it.

Yes, these are the achievements of great men. But it doesn’t stop there.

I recently moved, again, into my most favourite place yet.

I stay with my sister and her boyfriend, who happens to be my best friend. We cook grand food every night, and watch satellite television while smoking the highest quality marijuana. I’ve started two separate (but admittedly: small) business, and we are in the process of putting together a proposal for a third, large, full time company with a 90% chance of it being approved, upon which I shall quit my job and reap the rewards of working from our spare room next door.

I regularly take our Siberian Husky puppy for long walks in the park. They are not romantic, so don’t imply it, fucker. And is she beautiful? Does she call on the attention of passers by, eager to comment on her beauty? Is her combination of colour rare? Are her mismatched eyes adorable? God damn, yes they are.

I regularly give the required attention to my 3 bonsai, which require a delicate touch such as my own.

I make love to my amazingly beautiful girlfriend on a regular basis, and other beautiful women discreetly pleasure themselves while fantasising about being in the same position as her.


I’m the next fastest thing on two wheels after superman. I fly through the streets at a high (but safe and cautious) speed, and people gasp in wonder and awe.

In fact: I light up every god damn room I’m in. As always.

I am truly grand. Netphorians undeniably envy every aspect of my life.

At least that one small aspect hasn’t changed.

I could go on, but I’m sure by now you’re pressing the serated edge of that bread knife against your pitiful wrists and weeping: ‘Why not me? When do I get to that amazing Nirvana that can be summed up as Badens Life’.

But I digress. The point is: me = cooler then you. All of you. Combined.

Oh yes. I said combined.


Fuckers.


I'd use a smiley, but none of them cut it.

I feel that by assigning a new paragraph to each achievement, it makes it less daunting for mere mortals to attempt to acknowledge these amazing feats.

Perhaps in a small way they could confuse themselves, make themselves believe that these are the acts of multiple people, for surely one man is not capable of such greatness on his own.

Would a great man have seen Ong Bak?
Naturally.

Would a greater man own the special edition DVD? Defintely.

Now ask yourself, is baden a great man?


(Lets not talk about the fist of legend situation, hmmmkay?).

Seen Seven Sumarai? That old 1940's black and white one? I too, own that now. Is it great? yes, it is.



Is the rhetorical theme getting a bit much? Perhaps.

i love seven samurai, its the best movie to sit about with friends and get stoned on a sunday and watch, over hours, and hours

Actually, internet communication should be embraced and not mocked. It's the 21st Century, you know. Besides, I would expect a great man to understand the difference between the words "to" and "too."

You seem to have the impression I come round to Netphoria to show off or something, and get some internet approval for my life, which I so desperately need.

I just got this screen name back and this was from some PM you sent me in 2004...you went on to whine about how you should be able to post pictures of your pot plants without me saying shit or something.

Anyhow, I just saw it today and figured it was kind of a coincidence. No, you definitely don't come around to Netphoria to show off or anything. Never.
