I'm an asshole (he's an asshole, what an asshole)
Every time I hear that Denis Leary song, I cannot help but think of the one person I can honestly say fits the description- and its like my mind comes back to the same place every time. Yup, its THAT asshole. The one who believes he is LORD OF THE S.A. FURRIES (pun intended), Rakuen Growlithe!

Besides being in the butt-end of the gene pool (no surprises there) it's not enough to simply call this individual an asshole. We need to tell the sordid tale of what I even think amounts to the word "pervert" being too gentle an adjective.

So let's see what we have here:

• South African living abroad: [TICK]
• Perpetual student / working on a student visa: [TICK]
• Denies his origins partially or fully: [TICK] (Look Winston, here's a mutual friend for you)
  
• Thinks he is the SUPREME RULER of a fandom (essentially a hobby): [TICK][TICK]
• Delusions of grandeur: [TICK]
• Pretending to be someone intelligent but doesn't possess the matching intellect: [TICK]
• Hides identity online with the precision of a kiddie fiddler: [TICK]

Let's start at the beginning...
I encountered this individual when I started to contribute to a local furry forum (the infamous zafur.co.za). Bear in mind that, the forum requires moderator/admin approval of all new signups. I had waited over two weeks and nothing had happened. The way I got something to happen was by firing up mIRC, and see if I could find the site owner(s) on there and I did. I had to ask him directly "Please sir, can you approve my account"!

At the time, the place was already in a state of decline, with them running a very old version of forum software (phpBB V 2.x - remember that!). As anyone who has an existential hobby would attest, one feels motivated to want to help out there, you know the form- its a community after all. The response from this guy was straight "NO"!. I am like.. seriously dude.. what the fuck. If you wanna be like that.

So dear reader, by now you know what kind of person I am, I don't take kindly to fucktwats such as this one. In time I did learn what kind of fellow he was, and also I saw the history that was before my time.

Walk it off, Princess...
So my longtime nemesis is upset about something on my blog and
ohhhhh he has a frowny face now. As to what he is upset about, its
about this blog entry here.

​Well Winston, here's a challenge for you- challenge each and every
point in that blog post with the truth and I'll publish that, instead of 
what I wrote. And I want proof that what you said, is indeed true.
That's easy ain't it. But not so much if you've built a house of cards!

Jannie does it once again... 
Its not easy to find a genius in South Africa, but, the former VodaCon and iBurps CEO is right on your street if you ever needed a genius. According to Jannie, milk no longer expires, as he clearly stated in this post (screencapped below for preservation as his friend will delete it from the forum as soon as this blog post is made known).

"Milk, petrol, etc. are all physical products and don't expire. Once you bought it, you take it home and consume it at your leasure.

So I wanted to alert another user on DISQUS about my blog. Guess what... our special crybaby friend has now blocked links to my blog....

First attempt was with a URL shortener.
Second attempt was a post, which I subsequently edited, and when I edited it... it got blocked.

BusinessTech, MyBroadband's own little fake news spew website spewed some fake bullshit click-bait today.
The response to this was quite heavy

Its a very strong response, and I am keeping it here because I am sure it will be sent to the fired furnaces below the Ministry of Truth!

It just never stops, Winston... The Ministry of Truth continues unabated...

Ban incoming for that user, pretty soon....

 (oSo the local FAKE NEWS hub is hiring... and someone did point out their job advert:

As we know the business is run by a dutchman (our good friend Rudy), or more accurately nothing that became something through whichever means, probably not the ethical route as I've been told many times over the years. As I have myself worked for some of these "delightful" dutch people over the years, they rate only second to working for a boss of Middle-Eastern persuasion- they share the common trait of being bastard slave drivers - they honestly believe they are better than the people that work for them and love the sweatshop. Of course, that never did sit well with me, and hence the reason why I tend to get emotional about these issues. Anyway, from the advert:

In the post on the forum, it takes you to the link where you do the actual application. I honestly don't know whether to laugh or cry at this, as it is blatantly obvious that MyBroadband wants to pwn its employees. How disgusting!

This ad wasn't missed either by the readers on the forum, they actually called them out on it. Of course, no response. Boss of sweatshop doesn't care..

No need to guess what's happening on that date... the movie is coming out on that date.
Please, for the love of all that is good, don't disappoint us like SEGA has done for decades!!

Once upon a time, I used to read James Long's blog/website about his dissatisfaction with certain American businesses that don't want to do business with customers.

So, I was happening to look up where to get comic art boards, the best ones I've seen are from Bill Cole Enterprises (these are the very ones that Archie Comics use) and its the first hit in Google...

​Unfortunately I get presented with this:

So right there folks, its 2018 and this douchebag thinks its just wild animals and 419 scammers that live in South Africa. But what this dickwad doesn't realize is that I can get to his site, just fine from Tor

So here is a company that is now BLACKLISTED in my personal list of companies who will NEVER get my business, ever. I urge you to not support these people too.
