Rhythmatism - by Cheryl J

Best chain letter ever - for those who despise email chain letters

Hello, my name is (insert name here) and I suffer from the guilt of not forwarding 50 billion fucking chain letters sent to me by people who actually believe that if you send them on, a poor 6-year-old girl in Arkansas with a breast on her forehead will be able to raise enough money to have it removed before her redneck parents sell her to a traveling freak show.

Do you honestly believe that Bill Gates is going to give you, and everyone to whom you send "his" email, $1000?

How stupid are we?

"Ooooh, looky here! If I scroll down this page and make a wish, I'll get laid by a model I just happen to run into the next day!"


What a bunch of bullshit.

Maybe the evil chain letter leprechauns will come into my house and sodomize me in my sleep for not continuing a chain letter that was started by Peter in 5 AD and brought to this country by midget pilgrims on the Mayflower.

Fuck 'em.

If you're going to forward something, at least send me something mildly amusing. I've seen all the "send this to 10 of your closest friends, and this poor, wretched excuse for a human being will somehow receive a nickel from some omniscient being" forwards about 90 times.

I don't fucking care.

Show a little intelligence and think about what you're actually contributing to by sending out these forwards. Chances are, it's your own unpopularity.

The point being? If you get some chain letter that's threatening to leave you shagless or luckless for the rest of your life, delete it. If it's funny, send it on.

Don't piss people off by making them feel guilty about a leper in Botswana with no teeth who has been tied to the ass of a dead elephant for 27 years and whose only salvation is the 5 cents per letter he'll receive if you forward this email.


Now forward this to everyone you know.

Otherwise, tomorrow morning your underwear will turn carnivorous and will consume your genitals.

Have a nice day.
PS. Send me 50 bucks...

Footnote: No I didn't come up with this chain letter myself but I wish I had. I'd like to shake the hand of the man who did write it though.

Bicycles, Tourettes and Swastikas

Ok first up. This blog post may be offensive to some. It is not meant to be offensive, it was written in the spirit of humour. If you are sensitive or don’t like a little profanity, please move along now. The ‘family friendly’ force field has been turned on so you have been duly warned. And no, I don’t think it’s racy enough to warrant a Mature Content label.

And before anyone feels the need to slag me off for this post because I’m making fun of disabilities or cancer blah blah, I have a disability and a family member with cancer so get a grip

Misheard Lyrics (with video clips). What have you misheard?

We’ve all done it. Heard a song, sang along certain that you have the words right until one of your mates starts pissing themselves saying, “sing that bit again” and you say, “sing what again?” and they say, “that last line”, so you say, “oh, you mean…” and it sets them off again until you realise, crap, that’s obviously not what it says.

Misheard lyrics are called Mondegreens, a phrase first coined in 1954 so it’s not a new thing. Two of the most misheard lyrics that I know of are in Purple Haze by Jimmy Hendrix where “Scuse me while I kiss the sky” seems to be heard as “Scuse me while I kiss this guy” and the ever famous Manfred Mann’s version of the Springsteen song Blinded by the Light where “revved up like a deuce” becomes “wrapped up like a douche

Post Title

The good news is I got a haircut for work today. The bad news is that I think I'm going to be fired tomorrow. So, I can't stress this enough; click on the god-damn ads! I for one can't wait till I graduate, earn some money and trample over all the people who I've worked for getting there. And I mean trample.

And you think that was a bad day?

Yodelling For Amateurs

...not quite. Instead, I have something more exciting.
A listing of all the music you, as readers listen to. This is done using a website I like to call Last FM. I'm sure many of you have already heard about this, but I'm curious as to if anyone would like to participate. Basically, all that happens is as you listen to your music on the computer, the website compiles a list of all the tracks/artists played. Thus, if many readers subscribe to this, we can see/laugh at/discuss musical taste and recommendations.

Vun Hit Vonders

Sorry for the delay; I thought it best to go into hiding while Noel Gallagher visited Australia. Never-the-less, I am back to bring you another exciting issue of Rheumatism. Leaving obscure music for just a moment, the other end of the scale is a one-hit wonder (note: Mark Latham). Here are some of my favourite (and not-so-favourite) one hit wonders...
