Life is better in 3d

or: Who gives a flying click?

Is it just me, or is this a bit surreal? This is the complete transcript of a facebook ad:

Life is better in 3d

It’s free. It’s easy. Turn yourself into a 3d creation today. Express your unique personality with your friends.

Sounds like it should lead to a page advising that people turn off their computers and go outside… I haven’t clicked through to see what it’s advertising, and I don’t intend to (unless I let loose with a flying click whilst vainly trying to prove my intelligence by clicking on spinning asteroids in the ‘biggest brain’ game) because I know I’ll be disappointed.

Things I could have been usefully doing…

… instead of staying up til 1am playing ‘who has the biggest brain’ on facebook:

- racking off kiwifruit wine
- sweeping kitchen
- finishing Bill Bryson book
- finishing Graeme Greene book
- finding panniers, bike lock, bike light etc to prepare for cycling to work in morning
- finishing off outstanding website work
- grabbing a guitar and sorting out half-written songs
- stretching
- sleeping

However, on the plus side:

- I’d had a productive day already
- I now apparently possess a 2801cc Squidlian brain
- I’m getting much better at dividing by 3

Pity in a way it’s not 2799cc, as that would make 3 neat compartments of 933cc each (but maybe I needed those extra 2cc to figure that out… um… yeah)
