The slut cookie.

25 Jan 2012, Posted by Cape Town Girl in WTF, 1 Comments


Picked up a fortune cookie at Woolworths today and got this here ‘fortune’. I’m truly intrigued. HOW DID THIS HAPPEN? Did WW hire a troupe of grammar-challenged eleven year old aspiring ‘Girls Gone Wild’ stars to supply their fortune cookies? Or is this supposed to be a joke, a little summin’ to put a smile on your dial. Imagine the smile on my BFF’s dial if I’d given her boyfriend this fortune cookie after my sushi dinner party. That would have been hilarious. Maybe the silver sparkles and pink flowers stuck to the fortune cookie should have alerted me that this was, in fact, a ’slut cookie’ and not a fortune cookie.

I guess shame on me for wanting a mere inspirational message and some lotto numbers. Instead, I got a chapter out of Katie Price’s new book and a serving of Caprice on a Sunday night.

I’m traumatised. Will no doubt develop some serious trust issues over this. Anybody else got a slut cookie? Can you recommend a therapist?

Occupy dating y’all.

I hate my body. But it’s not my fault.

I hate my body, but it’s not my fault.

It’s the MAGAZINES’ fault, cos they publish pictures of thin people.

It’s HOLLYWOOD’s fault, because they choose to depict an aspirational lifestyle.

It’s FASHION’s fault, because they make clothes I can’t fit into.

I’m going to tweet about it angrily, right after I tweet about how hungover I am from last night’s wine and food tasting, where I ate seven courses excluding dessert, drank a bottle and half of wine, drank 3 shooters and smoked half a pack of cigarettes.

I’m sick of having to hate my body because of the media.

Enough is enough.

I hate my body, but it’s not my fault.

It’s the ADVERTISER’S FAULT, and it’s THE GYM’S fault, for only showing pictures of slim healthy people, even though it logically makes sense because they are trying to talk to people who value being slim and healthy.

They make me feel fat and disgusting.

So do those skinny bitches who tweet about ‘how much they love running’.

I hate running and I hate anything to do with exercise.

I especially hate people who talk about it.

I hope you drown in your own sweat or get strangled by your monokini and stop making me feel like shit because I can walk up a flight of stairs without breaking a sweat.

The problem isn’t THAT I DON’T EXERCISE.

The problem is that SO MANY  OF THOSE AWFUL SKINNY PEOPLE DO, AND I HATE THEM.

I hate my body, but it’s not my fault.

It’s KFC’s fault for serving such TEMPTING DELICIOUS FOODS.

And it’s VEGETABLES’ fault for being so not-filled with salt and addictive flavourants and fried in fat.

It’s those adverts for WEIGHT LOSS AIDS’ fault.

Why should companies make money out of HELPING PEOPLE BE HEALTHIER? BASTARDS.

Why should I EAT LESS? The media is FILLED with things telling me to eat less.

Well I’ll show the media I have my own mind by EATING MORE.

Take that media!

And when I’m done eating more than is healthy for my height and size, I am going to slag the media off for making me feel so shit about my body.

I hate my body, but it’s not my fault.

Sure, I smoke, but if you’re gonna lecture me about how ‘bad smoking is for your lungs and overall body functioning’ then PUH LEEEEEEZE get out of here you self-righteous new age ponce.

Smoking is my THING, okay? So is drinking. And eating.

So what if instead of dealing with issues in my life I prefer to EAT UNTIL I’M IN A CARB COMA.

And SO WHAT if my big nights out make me feel like a rat that got run over on Long Street.

SO WHAT if two bottles of wine, five shooters and 4 cocktails contains more than three times the average adult human’s daily calorie allowance. I LIKE TO HAVE FUN OKAY.

It’s not MY DRINKING that’s the problem.

It’s magazines showing slim people looking happy that’s the problem.

My need to ABUSE THE MIRACLE OF NATURE THAT IS MY BODY is NOT why I feel filled with loathing every time I look in the mirror.

The fact that I wheeze every time I need to slightly exert myself is NOT why I hate my body.

I hate my body because of THE MEDIA AND THEIR CONSTANT REMINDER OF HOW GOOD HEALTH CAN LOOK.

They should be BANNED for showing slim people and an aspirational lifestyle. People who are good examples make me feel LIKE SHIT.

I hate my body, but it’s not my fault.

It’s EVERYBODY’S fault but my own.

Google Earth catches UFO over Table Mountain

27 Jul 2011, Posted by Cape Town Girl in WTF, cape town, lifestyle, south africa, 1 Comments


Hmm… somebody’s been flying their UFO out of authorised airspace around Cape Town. We’re going to need a PigSpotter equivalent. A “GoogleEarth UFOSpotter-Spotter”. Or something like that. So we can drive our UFO’s around in peace.

The latest offering from the Hilfiger legacy

This is Tommy Hilfiger’s son in his new music vid. Right now, T-Hil is reclining in a leather chair in his study at the Hampties, feeling bleak about life.

“I built an empire via my arian vision of clean cut kids on green lawns in collared shirts and my son becomes some wigga who looks like he spent Maths class making notes all over his body with a Pilot fineliner. FML.” – Tommy “Trying To HilFiger It All Out” Hilfiger

Been trying to count how many tats Rich Hill got but I keep getting distracted by him relighting his cigarillo when it goes out. I’ll bet he gets real mad behind the scenes and throws that cigarillo ‘into the bin with force’ (via #whiteboyproblems).

Also wish they’d used a longer corridor to film this in cos the whole three steps forward three steps back thing is making me dizzy, but maybe that is just Rich Hills Skilzz.. While this vid and its content is highly ‘non-aspirational’ for someone like me, I can appreciate that there must be some drunk, stoned chick out there with no self-esteem who might find this guy attractive and / or many ‘lost rich boyz’ ‘out dere’ who ‘feel this bros swag’ and retweet him to their homies.

Restekpe.
