I've been trying to move pictures I've taken on my iPhone to the computer. Usually (and by usually, I mean never) it will come up in 'Computer' as a camera, and will Autoplay. Most of the time it doesn't tho. It takes a few (and again, by few I mean 30) times of taking in and out before it will. Is there any way to fix this, or is this just something Windows has done because they hate the iPhone is the superior phone. I chose the latter.
Update-- It's finally worked. God, I need a Macbook.

i canz rewl dah world?!
I was thinking yesterday what I would do if I ruled the world. Some were good, some were just dumb. Here is the top 10 things I would change if I ruled the world:
- Everyone fat person (like overly fat) would get a free gym membership. Scratch that, everyone who wated to get fit and healthy would.
- Anyone who kills an animal (besides the meat industry) will be sentenced to death too. See how they like it.
- Veal would be illegal. It's a freakin' baby.
- Abortion would be legalised, but only available on a case to case basis. i.e kids under 17/can't afford to raise baby. Not just you don't want it. Also abortions would have to be done before the baby gets fingernails.
- Gay Marriage would be legalised everywhere. Anyone who protests gays getting married can't be married, and if they are, their marriage is null and void.
- Dial-up would be illegal. All internet would be broadband
- Unlimited broadband internet would mean unlimited broadband and not "25gbs then slow"
- Shitty iPhone ripoffs would be taken off the market
- Any fanboys of PC or Mac would be versed to use the other. (PC fanboy must use Mac). The same with game consoles.
- Smokes would be de-legalised (that a word?)
Feel free to tweet @christopherlane or comment with any you agree/disagree with, or any you'd add.

i can repeat?
I have had many blogs in my day. Thisone, S404 and S404X have been the only blogs I posted on for longer then a week. I actually remember a few of my old blog address' and decided to check them out. Nothing to exciting, until I stumbled upon this old post. I thought I should repost here and spread it.
It's a few rules I thought customers should know, posted from back when I worked at Coles.
I work at coles, and some times the sheer stupidity of people, makes me mad. So here are some rules/things you didn't know; that you should when you go through a register at Coles, or even any register. Think of it as registertiquette (registertiquette (c) Christopher Lane 2008). So here they are, my Xmas/Hannukah gift to you all.
1. When you are waiting inline, don't get pissed at the person serving if they're going to slow. They may have been working a while before you came along. Although if it's early, and you see them just getting on, and they are still slow, they're just warming up.
2. If you have your items in a trolley, you'd put them up on the counter, yeah? So there's no difference if you have a basket. That goes double for putting your items in a green bag before coming through and just expecting them unpacked. It get's annoying if you I have to unpack your groceries, then pack them again. Even more frustrating if you look at your watch and make an annoyed sound. Swear to Xenu, one day, I'm smacking someone in the face with a ham.
3. When the checkout operator asks you "Hi, how are you?" It is nice to answer, and not just stare at them blankly. I don't care how you are, hell if you carked it while I was serving you, I'd just page someone to take your fat ass away. Saying it is just a nicety, so return it and it will be over alot quicker.
4. Try to keep all your ite
ms of the same kind TOGETHER. I.e Cold items, fragile, cleaning supplys etc. There's nothing more annoying then putting through some Meat, then suddenly getting some Eggs, then Soap, then suddenly BAM meat again. There really should be some kind of rule that says Register operators can put your shit in the bag the order they're given them.
5i. If something is scanned wrong, don't make a big hissy fit about it. Calmly say "That was supposed to be (amount)". Most likely the price on the item was overlooked.
5ii. If something is on special for like '2 for $5' it doesn't come up at the discounted price on the screen. It will still have the original price next to it. Although it will be highlighted red, and the special is written underneath it. Don't say to me "OI, that was 3 for $6, you put it through the wrong price" because once it's pointed out to you "Oh no, see the BIG red words, it says it there; Can you read?" You'll seem like a dipshit.
6. When asked for a flybuys/everyday rewards card, or the like do not answer "No thank you" I wasn't asking if you WANTED one, I asked if you had one. If you do have one and don't want to use it, it's just as easy to say "Yeah, but don't worry about it". You won't seem like a dipshit with manners.
7. If you want credit or something with your purchase, please know what you want. Don't say to me "I want $20 credit" and then when asked "Which one?" just say "I don't know, the $20 one" If you don't know that simple question, I should be allowed to stab you.
8. If you're given the wrong change, just say it nicely. Yelling doesn't get your point across any better. Just makes you seem like a stingy prick who needs his 50c.
9. When they say "Have a nice day" how hard is it to say "You too"?
Well that's all, please remember these next time, you may realise the checkout operator is alot happier, and it goes by quicker.
Originally from www.christopherdlane.blogspot.com. If I had remembered I had that blog name I would've used that instead of creating this. Ah well. Big packed day tommorow, so I best be off.

i canz nevah evah sleep.
As alot of people who follow my Twitter will know that I have a very weird sleep schedule. It used to be ok. I would go to bed at 10p and wake up at 7a. Over time it got worse and worse. My current schedule is bed by 6a and wake up at 2p.
I guess it's good. Its gotten to the point I can watch the sunrise.
IMO all humans should sleep during the day, and be awake during the night. When it's night, it's cooler, the air smells better, and it has a feel to it. I love walking the streets at night (in groups of course) or going to the beach. I guess I'm just a night person. I'd make a good vampire (the kind who die in sunlight) of course, no shops are open, and the only restaurant around is McDonalds, but I still prefer it.
Well, that went no where.

i canz tell ideaz to yew and yew no stulz?
I've been having some ideas for skits I want to tape, but not many people to do with. The one I do have enough for, I'm not sure of. It'd be more a real reaction type one.
My idea is to have someone (most likely me) tied up in the back of a car, and then drive through the drive-thru at McDonald's, and then the driver will just casually order. My question to any readers is; what would be the consequences of doing something like this? Would cops be called? Could we just call it a harmless prank?
Damn it, why do my ideas always contain felonys.
Edit--
I play GTA4* alot, and never feel bad for killing people, that is until today. I was driving in a stolen cop car, as one does in the game, when I rammed into a black car, killing the occupants. I got out to survey the damage, basically see if there car was now worth stealing. I saw the 2 people in the car. An elderly black couple. I felt bad, but I still chucked the old lady out of the car, so I could drive with the black cadaver as my co-pilot. I felt better, until I heard the song on the radio. It was a romantic song. I'd killed an elderly couple out on a date. They didn't get out much.
I felt sad. Then I realised it's just a game, and blew up the car.
The end.

i canz revyew: Aion and Fired Up!
So today I played Aion. My pal Kirt has wanted to get it for a while, and was trying to rope me in to buy it with him. It's $90 plus you need a time card, so pretty damn steep, and I'm not one to spend money spontaneously *cough* so I wanted to try it out first.
Aion does not have any trial, so a definite point against it there. You have to invest $100+ dollars just to try it out.
He did end up getting it, so I managed to finally play it on his friend Scotts account.
I made a male scout named Pwnachu. I kinda regret calling it that, since if I do get the game, I can't call him that.
My thoughts on the game.
It looks like WoW, except cleaner graphics. Obviously the game is only a year old. Maybe younger, not sure, and WoW has been out since 2004, so that could be the reason for that. It still gets a point for that.
The land looks exactly like WoW, and my guy reminded me of a Knight Elf.
When you die, you don't become a ghost like in WoW. I know, it can't be exactly the same. Instead of being a ghost, you revive in the starting zone. Whenever you get to a new zone, you have to bind to the area. Good idea, sure, EXCEPT you then have to shell out money to bind. A point loss to that.
Questing annoys me. I'm used to the whole ? and ! for quests, I still can't tell what and who has quests. Points loss for that.
Leveling up was a bit annoying to. Level 1-3 took 113 XP, and then another 4000 XP. I can't really remember WoW levelling, but I don't think it was that much of a leap. WoW 1-10 took me only a few hours to get to, which was good. I like the levels being a bit easier, until you get a bit higher. Might just be me, but minus a point again.
SPAM. So much spam in the game to. WoW you can read the conversations with people. It also has there name, and report spam function. None of that in WoW. Minus another point again.
At level 10, you can fly tho. For 1 minutes at first and it builds up, so a point to that. I just like to fly.
There was a few more things. I really should've had a notebook to jot them down.
Aion got a score of -1. Now, I don't like the game. I would strongle reccomend WoW over it. If you have played WoW for ages and want a new game, I would go that game, or do what I'm doing, and wait for ToR (Star Wars: The Old Republic) to go on sale.
The other things I was going to review is Fired Up!
Fired Up! is your typical douche sleeps with every girl, finds a girl he likes, then changes his way movie. Except in this one, there's 2 douches. I must say tho, it was a good movie. Sure you pretty much knew the ending from the start, but still good. I enjoyed playing "HEY LOOK!*" while watching it. I rate it a 3/5 stars, or a B/B+ depending on which scale you want to use.
That's all from me, I've been Christopher Lane, and I like to blog.
*HEY LOOK! is the game where you find people from your favourite shows in movies. I found 1 cast member of Greek, A guest star from Greek, and a cast member of Secret Life of The American Teenager.

i canz be odd.
My last few blogs have been very depressing, and I'm sorry for that. No more of that. RANT TIME.
Telstra. It's no news I hate them. I do. I have had internet, mobiles, and home phones through them. The whole package. The problems?
Telstra Mobile. No big problems, except the plan is SHIT. $40 gets you $40 credit, 100 text and 100 minutes of calls. Now Vodafone gets $49 get's you $300 (I think, can't remember) of credit, for text and call, alot better. Optus $40 get's you $400 credit. $200 to any network, the other $200 Optus2Optus, plus 150Mb internet time, and if you recharge before the credit expires, it rolls over. I love Optus.
Telstra home phone. If you set up internet with it you are supposed to get 100 or so free local phone calls. Have had it connected toghether for almost a year and a half, and still not done, even tho I complain monthly.
AND finally, internet. There so call 'unlimited' internet. It's 25Gb of ADSL+ speed, then DIAL UP SPEED! Freaking dial-up. Wasn't that outlawed. The next highest plan is 60Gb, but instead of cutting off to dial-up (which I would prefer) it costs you for ever $0.15 for every Mb over. Not much right? WRONG! I signed up for this last month when my internet speed went WAY to quick. I went 3Gb over. $450! BUT WAIT, because I switched mid month, they worked it out to be $1400+. Since they didn't explain it fully, my mother managed to get out of it, and only pay the price, which was $150.
Optus internet gives you 80gb. 40gb on peak (which is 12p-12a) and 40Gb off-peak (12a-12p) which I love, and has been the best price I've seen so far. I trust Optus. My first phone was an Optus plan. I've had all the others (Telstra, Vodafone) but none of them come close to even the customer service. Granted, it's an over seas call centre, so you get people with accents, and like many companies they will piss you off somehow, but in the long run, I have always been happiest with them.
If you are thinking of switching mobiles, land line or internet, I strongly reccoment them.
This has been Christopher Lane, and as always, remember Satan>Telstra. Bye.

i canz be 19?
For a 19 year old I think I think about life and stuff to much. I actually started accepting death and stuff when I started working at Coles. Not because the jobbed sucked, but because it was so monotonous I could actually shut my brain off from what I was doing and think. After that, I used to get really depressed at work. Add that to the depression from actually working, and it was bad. I'm all good now. Being unemployed and just internetting it for 6 months has done good on my life (I think anyway).
It's also made me think about religion and stuff alot. Now, honestly, I still don't know what I believe. I was christened, my family is EXTREMELY religious. We're Greek, so yeah. There are only 3 people in my family who have questioned religion. My Mum, who out right hates it. My cousin, who doesn't really know if she believes or not, and of course me.
What I hate about religion, is that people are so pushy for their religion. Expecially Jehovahs Witness' who come to your door. Sure, some of their brochures are good reading (I read one that says something about life is like fire, when it's extinguished, it's gone forever, and that stuck with me) but honestly, if you're religion preaches truth, and good faith, people (I hope) will be able to find it themselves. Another thing about religion is the total hypocrisy. Mainly with Scientology. No not that Scientolgists are hyporcrites, that people in other religions are to them. They mock their religion, throw protests, just because a science fiction writer created it. I would much rather trust a science fiction writer who I knew lived, then a few guys back 2000+ years ago who wrote a book.
My personal belief, which you may say "Is this a joke?" and when I started saying it, it kinda was, until I put more thought into it. I am a "gamer" and not in the sense of "Oh gaming is my life" no, in the sense of life is a game.
I've said before "Jesus just had an extra guy" but the more thought I put into it, the more I find paralels in religion. We could all just be in another world right now, hooked up to some kind of 'life simulator' and if we live our lifes in this good, we get to continue once our character dies. If we don't then, no we don't. It makes sense in my head, so hopefully it came out ok.
I was originally going to blog about some YouTube stuff. I've been meaning to for 2 blogs, but I always seem to run into something else. Oh well, maybe the next blog. It is 10 to 5a so I think I will watch a bit more Youtube then hit the bed. Night night.

i canz promote gud comiks?
A review on webcomics? Being a 'web artist' and spending all my time on the internet, I do read alot of webcomics. Some I read for a few strips, get boredm then go, but the rest hook me in.
I'll review others a bit later in this post, but first I have to put in a word for Girls with Slingshots http://www.daniellecorsetto.com/gws.html Honest to God, hands down, the best webcomic I have read in so long. I read a few story line based webcomics, but none that are updated 5 days a week. This amazes me. I struggle to put out my lame-ass comic (If you switch the hyphen, it become Lame ass-comc, thanks so much for making me always do this XKCD) 2 days a week. The story is fresh, a consistent. I read through the entire archive, up to the current one, last night. The first few, I was like "Eh, it's alright" so I kept reading. Next thing I know, I was sucked in. It's the first time too, that I have read through an entire comic archive in one sitting. It's so, fairly true to life, true story lines, ah just SO GOOD. So definetly go check it out.
One more word on it, don't check it out if you're younger, as it has alot of sex, dildos, and the like in it. Maybe that's why I love it. (if you're younger I wouldn't be reading my blogs either, but thats just me)
Now, other webcomics I read (in no order, just how they are placed in my bookmark bar):
http://mycardboardlife.com/ It's not drawing, the artist uses cardboard and paper for the 2 main characters. It's a cute kind of kids comic, with some adult undertones, I like it.
http://www.picturesforsadchildren.com/ READ IT NOW. John Campbell is my idol. His comics are depressingly funny. Also check out his hourly comics page. He does comics about his life once a month, every year. It's just about him, but it still makes me laugh. He's excellent
http://www.jeffschuetze.com/ I was annoyed when there was a massive lack of updates. The author was filiming a movie, but he is now back. It's about a gamer/asian/actor kid. Good read.
http://www.imycomic.com/ I got my first fan-art posted on this site. Excellent story line, and an extremely friendly artist. While most webcomic artists rarely even reply to people on Twitter,(only her, and Zach Weiner of SMBC comics have) she even Ping!'d me and had a chat, which I thought was awesome. Go read the comic right now.
http://pajamaforest.com/ Brilliant art style. Brilliant story lines. Brilliant everything. It doesn't follow a defienit storyline, it has just short little arcs, but honestly, I've had a lot of lulz reading it (why did I just say lulz?)
http://eqcomics.com/ Follow Edmund Finney while searches for the meaning of life. He obviously has never read The hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. It's a very out there comic, a bit droll (is that right?) at times, but when it has a good joke, it has the best good joke out there
http://www.amazingsuperpowers.com/ If you aren't already reading this comic, you leave my site now. Seriously.
http://www.boatcrime.com/ By the guys who write ASP. Not updated that often. I don't even think it has a definitive update schedule, but still, a definite read for webcomic enthusiasts.
http://www.ctrlaltdel-online.com/ This is obligatory. CAD is...wait no, WAS a good webcomic. Back in the day it had this story line about gamers named Ethan and Lucas. For the past 2 months it has been mindless pop culture fillers. I've been reading for 3 years or so, and the author used to do this from time to time, but 2 months is really shit. I suggest reading from number 1, up to when Zeke (the x-bot) leaves home, then stop. That's when the goodness ends.
http://www.xkcd.com/ What would a webcomic list be without XKCD? Bad. XKCD is updated M/W/F with stickmen drawings. You're thinking "STICKMEN? WHAT, how is that good" and the answer is, because Randal Munroe is a genius.
http://www.smbc-comics.com/ Zach Weiner is some kind of God. Some jokes may fail, and some are only for hardcore nerds, but most are the funniest shit you will ever read. Also check out www.smbc-theater.com for thevideo counterpart of the comic.
http://www.explosm.net/ Everyone has heard of cyanide and happiness. Not much I can say about it.
http://www.basketcasecomix.com/ I usually only read this comic one every 2 weeks or so. It updates daily, so it gives me alot of good comics to read. Definetly worth a read through when you're bored. Some jokes are a bit complicated. overall good.
http://spudcomics.com/ This comic reminds me of those one panelled comics that are in newspapers, except, y'know, funny.
Now that I have enriched your lives with humour, I go now.

i canz be a lil bitch.
Sorry for the odd blog yesterday. Things have been all shit. I should never post stuff like that on the internet.
I have really wanted to rant about so many things, but the main thing is people. Some people just become sudden cunts. I'm not one to dwell on the past, but lately it seems there's a big cunt potion everyones been drinking. This makes me annoyed because.
1. The drink has made them all cunts
and
2. They haven't shared it with me.
Like honestly, I don't know what is up.
I really wish I could bad mouth and bitch people in more detail here, but I think I'd rather not.
I'm also really sick of religion, or rather, people who claim the Loch Ness Monster (or the like) isn't real, and tell me it isn't real, then claim there is a God with as much evidence as I have for Lochie.
Everyone sucks right now. Where's my food. I'm hungry.
Bye.

i canz rowl mah dice?
Well well, not a very eventful day today. I woke at 9:30a relatively awake. Fell asleep on the couch until 10:15a again. I guess it's good for going to bed at 2a. Is it bad if I thought 2a was early? Well it's 4a so I guess. Stupid sleep clock. ANYWAY.
So I woke up fairly awake, more then I normally am when I wake early. I showered, had a Mother and headed off to my Aunts.
She wanted her hair dyed. What I learnt from that? Always make sure the lid is on, unless you want blue speckled walls. Just sayin'
Then I went to my cousins 4th birthday party, did some playing with little cousins, the headed back to my Aunts to sing and make videos.
Enough of a dose of sweet family time-ness?
Ok, good.
You know what I hate? People. Seriously. I do not understand them. I feel like, I don't know. Townsville has been shit since I quit my job and my best friend left. He was the only one to talk to. I blog and Tweet because, I think I just need a way to vent.
Honestly, he was, and still is the only person I could talk to about anything.
Wow, I'm actually tearing up. Hmm....enough of this blog. I don't think crying while blogging is manly.

i canz talk aboot sh1t?
Zynga. We all know them. For those who play Facebook apps all day, we almost all have at least one of the apps, but I'm sick of them ruining the good ones. They seem ti be glorifying the same game over and over, and that game is, farm games.
YoVille, the job used to be just click a button, get money, and the style your room and shit like that. It was like a simplified version of the sims. Then KAPOW! they put in the sweets factory. A 16 by 16 oven room, that you clean (plow) the ovens, then bake (plant) the goods, then take them out (harvest) in varying times.
Now, this was an alright idea. I used to hate it, but I thought of it like, if you play every day, you can put in quicker things, but if you can only get on like once every 3 days, you could still make 1000 coins, instead of like 250c, althought if you only go on once a week you're now screwed.
Roller Coaster Kingdom also now has elements of farming. You used to have a 'buzz' rating, which defined how many people would visit your park, and now, you have to clean (plow) driving spots, book (plant) bus tour times, then let them out (harvest) and again, each things has varying times. There is another thing that gets me annoyed about these game, but I'll get to them below.
Cafe World, again, you clean (plow) ovens, put the food on stoves (plant) and then take it off (harvest) and again, varying times.
I'm really expecting Mafia Wars to suddenly change, and you'll have to clean your house (plow), then kill enemies (plant), then hide evidence (harvest) again, with varying gangs taking longer to kill.
Before I go, another things that annoys me is, in Roller Coatser Kingdom, you used to automatically expand when you went up levels, now you need a certain amount of neighbours to expand. I hate applications that put a vital piece of game play weighing on the fact that you have friends. I only add friends and family on my FB, I currently have 27, and out of them, I have maybe 5 or 6 people who play applications. My mum doesn't have this trouble, she adds people from all over the world just to get the advantages, which I don't think FB is about. But eh, enough rambling. Must sleep. Have to wake up to dye my aunts hair tommorow. And by me, I mean my Mum. I'm going to type out some stuff for my YouTube vlogs and stuff like that.

i canz hayt twilite?
Ok, not so much hate. I do like the movies, and I don't plan to read the books, it's just the characters. The main thing is the vampires. Ok Stephanie Meyer, obviously you were the fat nerd in school and wanted to live out your fantasy by writing a book about a fanatastically awesomely cool boy liking the book version of you, but really, vampires aren't like that.
Point 1, Vampires die when they go in the sun, they don't glow. If that was the rumour, vampires would not be scary "WATCH OUT FOR DA VAMPIRE! HE GLOWS!"
That would be like me writing a book about zombies, except the zombies aren't actually undead, or eat brains, but they dress fancy and have good hair. Also, they own a bank. See, I can write just as good as you.
Point 2, Vampire DO sleep. Ever seen an old movie? The vampire sleep in coffins. THey do this during the day, you know why? BECAUSE THEY DIE IN THE SUN!
Point 3, Now, not really sure on this one, but I'm pretty sure no legend has that vampire babies age rapidly. I don't even think technically a vampire can have babies. They're the living dead. So saying that a 17 year old boy (or however old Jacob is) falls in love with a baby, but it's ok, because the baby will age rapidly, IS NOT OK. That makes him a paedophile and he should be treated for it.
Point 4, while on the subject of Jacob, now I've only seen this in trailers, so I may be out of c ontext, but in the trailer, Bellas is about to be attacked, and Jacob leaps, and turns into a werewolf. It looks like day time too. So I don't get it, because I am quite sure Werewolves only become werewolves during full moons.
So please, Stephanie, stop buthering urban legends so they will fit into your little queer story about how you wish your life was.
This has been Christopher Lane, with my first actual rant in a while. Goodbye every body.

i canz blog naow?
Ok, very quickly, am I the only one who gets followed by a twitter account that's picture is Britney Spears sucking pole? It's always the same picture, the same description, just a new username. Like sjdbasfka and shit like that. I block, and it comes back. Why bother doing this? WHY? DOUBLE-U-HACH-WHY?!
K, good night now.
K, good night now.
i canz loathe god?
Ok, not on actual God, but I have to write something NOW.
On my previous blog, I wrote how much I loved Pocket God, then they go and write this in the game
"Show your appreciation for Pocket God and help support future updates. Instead of charging for updates, we are providing fans fun "extras" that they can buy, but do not affect core game-play. Those who cannot afford it, or aren't interested will still get all the updates FREE! Thanks for checking out the custom pack store"
This annoyed me, and I'm going to tell you why.
Now yes, I understand you have to make money, but the app is already a paid app, so you're making money there. Now, all these packs are good, sure, I'm not saying we should get the packs for free, but my main annoyances are:
"Instead of charging for updates"
and
"Those who cannoy afford it, or aren't interested will still get all the updates FREE!"
Ok, all updates of all iPhone apps are free. You have NO say in charging for updates (that I know of) and I don't think Apple's app store would be popular if they allowed devs to charge for bug fixes, or additions to the game.
The devs of PG may be saying "We could create another game for each chapter" but again, I don't actually think Apple would accept them.
Second annoyance is the price. At the moment all you can update is the dinosaur. You can update the skin, give it a hat, and a tattoo. Only one of each, and it costs you the price of the app to do it ($1.19) if it was like a 'Dino pack' with everything included, then sure, why not. But come on, that's a bit steep in the long run. You could end up spending an extra $6 just for all of them.
While I still think it's a good app, that you should buy if you want to waste a minute every now and then (you will never get more then 2 minutes of enjoyment out of the game, except the first few times after you bought it) I think the way they have phrased it is BS.
That's all from me, blogger keeps shitting up and making random sentences Times New Roman font, and I don't want that on this blog. BYE.

i canz haz tatoos?
This blog won't be of any importance. I will only talk about myself and the tattoos I want. It won't be to long either. Ok, here goes.
Since I was a young lad, I have wanted tattoos. I was never one of those kids that was just going to get one on impulse. I knew they'd last forever. I've been thinking of what tattoos I have wanted since forver, and FOR NOW, these are the tattoos I want:
Autobot Symbol under my right collar bone. Like between my nipple and collar bone kind of.
Batman Symbol in the middle of my chest, or the other side, like where the autobot symbol would be, but on the left.
Star fleet logo on my right hand. I draw this one alot, and I like it. It's simple, yet awesome.
Pokeball on my left wrist, I'd want it coloured in too, it'd be sweet.
Jack Skellington down my right arm. I've actually wanted this for ages. My old drama teacher (who fucking ruled more then any human ever) had a voodoo looking doll there, and it gave me the idea of Jack. Then I saw Pete Wentz had it, and I got angry. Bitch stole my idea.
That's probably all for now. There all like, pop culture/nerd symbolly things. I honestly want them so when I am an old man, I can look at them and go "Ahh, I remember the ole' pokeemon show, with the pikamouse and all them" plus, I'd be the coolest old man ever.
Quick side note, I have never seen a really old man covered in tattoos, I think because it's only been in the past 30(?) year people have liked tattoos more, so the people would only be like 50 now, but I wanna see one.
Anywhozlebees, any thoughts on them, comment or tweet me @christopherlane.
Bye.

i canz revyew apps?
Well, as alot of you know, since I announce at anytime, I have an iPhone. I also get bored easily, so enter in, the apps.
That is the key benefit of an iPhone, the app store. Plus iPhones are the best. Now, I know alot of people will say "iPHONES SUCKS!, bla bla bla phone is better" which may be true (no it's not) but think of this, every (and by every, I mean most) of the new touch screen phones have taken the look of an iPhone. Mainly the icon look. Anyway, drifting from my point. APPS. The best part of an iPhone, and I am here to review them. Not all. Not even all of my phone, just the best and worst.
Ok, let's begin.
Now, as soon as you get an iPhone, and you have social media stuff, that's what you'll usually get. Now Facebook, Myspace, AIM, all those things have their own app, so not alot to compare too, but if I was to review.
Facebook- Brilliant UI on it. The only bad thing is when you turn it on it's side, it changes to landscape, but that's true with most apps.
Myspace-I don't really use Myspace. It's old. The app is annoying, as the main page is essentially your profile, and you have to click each thing to see what friends have updated. Unless you use Myspace alot, not a big point of getting it.
eBay- It's good for checking your bids on the go, but I don't really use it that heavily. If I really want to look for something, I use the computer. Still a good app.
Now onto things that don't have apps.
MSN. Now alot of people use it, and you'l want a nice clean app. I never use paid apps for things like this, I find it shit, that the company puts it and then YOU (the app developer) makes money from it. These are the apps I have used for it:
Nimbuzz- Not sure how long I used it for, but not that long. I didn't like the UI, and I think it froze a dew times and stuff.
Palringo- This was my first MSN app. I liked it, UNTIL they suddenly stuck ads in it and then made a paid app. Ads are ALWAYS a big no-no for me with apps like that. As soon as that came in I deleted it. That's when I got Nimbuzz I think.
eBuddy- What can I say, it's free, brilliant UI, and does more then just MSN. This is the BEST one I have found so far, and I'm sure it'll be the best MSN app out there.
Now onto apps you should REALLY have on your iPhone.
Ping!- It was free, but now it's $1.19, and I like apps that do that. They kind of, reward the people who got it first. They don't leave it free for a while, then go "FUCK YOU ALL!" stick ads in it, and then make a paid one. Even if they did, I'm pretty sure I'd buy the paid one, since it's AWESOME. It's an iPhone2iPhone messenger. It works over internet, for a very small price. If you have even 1 friend with an iPhone, then get it.
Did someone say Twitter? No, well I did. Twitter apps are plentiful in the app store. I want Twitter to release their own, but until they do, here's a review of the others-
Twitterific- Download, saw ads, got rid of. Plus it was slow.
Twinkle- My first ever Tiwtter app. I liked it, but the UI bored me after a while. I made a few followers from it. It's a location based app that shows people within 5k-300k away from you. I still have it now, I just don't use it.
Twitterfon (now Echofon)- Used it, it got ads, and they made a paid one. I do not like it.
Tweetdeck- Free. No Ads. Great UI. Get it naow.
BlogPress- Have a blogspot? Wanna post on the go? Get this. It's $4 and my most expensive non-game app purchase. If you are a big blogger, then get it.
Pocket cinema- An app to tell you when movies are on a Bitch carroll and coyle cinemas. It's not an app I use often, but it is good for quick look at time, when you get bored. If you go to a BCC a few times a month or so, I'd get it. Or just download it if you ever need to know movie times. It's free, and a small file. Only a few seconds to download from the app store.
WoW Armory- There were a few non-blizzard ones out there before, and they were good, but the Blizzard one is awesomely sweet. Check your quilds raid times, character info, and all the cool stuff on the go. Makes me wish I still played.
Games times.
I'm done reviewing, so these apps you should download now.
Mafia Wars
Vampire wars
Street Racing
All free. If you do, add me to the crew yo. ID is 7303 2810 57 for all 3.
Pocket God- It's $1.19(AUD) and updates almost weekly with new content. ATM it's about 13Mb, and it rules! But it now.
And, the last 3;
Tap Tap Revenge- Free
Tap Tap Revenge 2- Free
Tap Tap Revenge 3- $1.19

That is the key benefit of an iPhone, the app store. Plus iPhones are the best. Now, I know alot of people will say "iPHONES SUCKS!, bla bla bla phone is better" which may be true (no it's not) but think of this, every (and by every, I mean most) of the new touch screen phones have taken the look of an iPhone. Mainly the icon look. Anyway, drifting from my point. APPS. The best part of an iPhone, and I am here to review them. Not all. Not even all of my phone, just the best and worst.
Ok, let's begin.
Now, as soon as you get an iPhone, and you have social media stuff, that's what you'll usually get. Now Facebook, Myspace, AIM, all those things have their own app, so not alot to compare too, but if I was to review.
Facebook- Brilliant UI on it. The only bad thing is when you turn it on it's side, it changes to landscape, but that's true with most apps.
Myspace-I don't really use Myspace. It's old. The app is annoying, as the main page is essentially your profile, and you have to click each thing to see what friends have updated. Unless you use Myspace alot, not a big point of getting it.
eBay- It's good for checking your bids on the go, but I don't really use it that heavily. If I really want to look for something, I use the computer. Still a good app.
Now onto things that don't have apps.
MSN. Now alot of people use it, and you'l want a nice clean app. I never use paid apps for things like this, I find it shit, that the company puts it and then YOU (the app developer) makes money from it. These are the apps I have used for it:
Nimbuzz- Not sure how long I used it for, but not that long. I didn't like the UI, and I think it froze a dew times and stuff.
Palringo- This was my first MSN app. I liked it, UNTIL they suddenly stuck ads in it and then made a paid app. Ads are ALWAYS a big no-no for me with apps like that. As soon as that came in I deleted it. That's when I got Nimbuzz I think.
eBuddy- What can I say, it's free, brilliant UI, and does more then just MSN. This is the BEST one I have found so far, and I'm sure it'll be the best MSN app out there.

i canz GHD haur.
As many of you may or may not know I straighten my hair. Many reasons I do this.
One is that if I leave my hair curly, it is like an afro, and 2 because it's curly. They're kind of the same thing, but oh well. I have been straightening my hair for 3 years, and in that time I have used 2 straighteners, both the exact same brand and make (remington something, my first one gave out after a year) and to me it worked fine, but on Sunday my sister bought a GHD straightener. For those not hip to the fashion brands and the like, GHD is the high class straighteners that cost about $300 (mine was $30 or $40). The only time I have used a GHD is when my hairdresser would straighten my hair after I got a colour (this blog makes me sound like a woman) and because she never did it right, I could never get a good feel for a GHD. Now Alex (sister) has one, I gave it a test run. I'm not sure what temperature it gets too, (my old one got to 200 degress celcius in about 3 minutes) but to heat up, it took under a minute. So 1 point goes to it. Anyway, I'll just get to the point. It done a great job. The sides of my hair got curly, but I was out in the sun all day, so it may've been from sweat, but the rest has stayed pin straight all day.
Point is, if you have the chance in the current economic climate, I strongly reccomend one. Or you could just not be vain. Whatever you like. Kbye.

i can watch aminalz?
Today I woke up at 7:30, showered, had some caffeine, and went off to the Billabong Sanctuary (google it, I have no time to explain).
I've always liked that place. It is expensivem yes indeed. $30 to get in, but that is for as long as you want, and the sign says they close at midnight (I think I should have stayed longer). Whenever I go, I buy a bag of food to feed the Kangaroos, and go off to see animals. It's such a fune day.
I also taped alot today, so much that my camera almost died. I shall edit my hours of footage into a 5-10 minute video and put in on the Youtube site. You know the one.
What did I learn today you ask?
I learnt:

I learnt:
- To make the baby koala leave, the Mummy koala beats it up. THis is because Koala are dumb, and the only way to teach them something is to beat them up
- I learnt a Wombat can crush a dingoes skull using it's bum. Seriously. Google it if you don't believe. The guy who works there told me, and he has to know.
- Curlews are b*tches. Seriously, one cornered me. I was scared. I have 5-10 minutes of footage of me being a bitch and being scared of it.
- A crocodile biting your head is like being run over by a car
- Crocodiles don't like to share
- Geese are naughty. Bad goose, naughty.
- I will buy a oven mitt if it looks like a crocodile
Well, I think that is all. When video is up, it will go below this line here.
But above here, so in that space. Ok well, bye.
i can haz a camera in my butt?
Has not been a good couple of days. As none of you know, I have ulcerative colitis, a shit disease. Basically it's like my anti-bodys or something see my intestines as a virus, and go all kung-fu on that bitch. I was on alot of pills for it, now only 8 a day, so it's getting better. Because of such a WONDERFUL disease, I occasionaly have to have a colonoscopy (great knowledge for all you, right?). So, this was my first full colonscopy, (my last one was while I was in hospital, and there wasn't much prep) so I had to drink 4 litres of some liquid that can only be described as Satans urine mixed with shit and hobo spit. Really bad (maybe over exagerated) but it did make me gag the first 2 litres, I kinda got used to it. Anyway, I had to drink 3 litres yesterday and one today, and one this morning. ALSO I could not eat all of yesterday. Usually I barely eat, but as soon as I couldn't eat, I was overly hungry.
So today, I woke up after 4 hours of sleep (I blame Rose, she keeps me up) and couldn't have any caffeine. I then skulled a litre of this demonic fluids, felt sick, showered, got all perdied up, then left for the hospital. I got there at 12:15p, with my appointment at 12:30p. So after being in the waiting room for a half hour, they moved me to another room closer to the examination room. I thought "Oh yes! This must mean I'll soon get to go in" so yeah, after sitting in that room for about an hour and a half, they finally call me. They ask me information (When did I last eat, did I drink the demon fluid, do I wanna go on a date etc.) and then give me a gown and tell me to get naked. I'm not a big fan of public nudity. Sure I talk a big game, but nudity is always akward, but I thouth "Hell, I'm sure I'll go out, they'll give me some good ole' drugs, and I'll be clothed again in no time". So after sitting in nothing but a very loose gown for another 1 and a half hours (during which time, they stuck a needle in my arm, which let blood gush out of my arm, but atleast I had signal for internet) they finally wheel me in to the room. They tell me some of the procedure, about all this stuff, the lady tells me to breath in some tube. The tube was filled with freaking MAGIC. It made me feel so awesome, I couldn't get enough of it. I felt like everything on Earth had slowed down. So many thought and calrifications came to my head, FREAKING SWEET! Plus I saw bit and pieces of a camera in my rectum. Events from today are still a bit blurry. I do remember when my Mum picked me up, I ate a donut in 2 bites, and scoffed down sandwiches.
I guess this was a round about way of saying, after all the shit stuff, sucking on a tube of magic was so worth it. Sounds like I'm saying 'Do drugs', and I kind of am.
Now onto stuff in my life:
I was going to read 'Maos Last Dancer' but I couldn't get into it. I was going to try again, but then I got a new manga. Mangas are the best. It is 'Neon Genesis' I actually managed to get issue 1 and 2, so I should be set for a few days, then I might try Maos again.
Manga series I am reading:

Manga series I am reading:
- Full Metal Alchemist-I've read issue 1, waiting for issue 2 and 3 to come in. I also own the Anime
- Bleach-Read issue 1, and will continue reading
- Dragonball-Read issue 1,2 and 3, watiting for 4,5,6 special edition to come in.
- Neon Genesis-Reading issue 1, and is really good so far.
Manga series always pull me in. I love them.
My next read will either be:
- Dragonball
- Fullmetal alchemist
- Maos Last Dancer
- Watchmen
Depending on if the mangas get here, or Watchmen comes in, otherwise it'll be Maos.
Anywho, night night. I need to talk to some hoes.

i can makez new headah?
Wow, the new header actually looks really good. This also marks the first appearance of my new cartoon style on any of my 3 blogs. Now to make new Server 404, S404X, Twitter, and Youtube backgrounds. YAY. Might do them a bit later.
Whenever I read hourly comics, I always get the urge to comic. Gotta love it.
And now, to RANT!
Tommorow I need to have a colonoscopy, FUN RIGHT? No, because I have to drink 3 litres of some terrible liquid that tastes like ass and makes me want to throw up. ALSO I can't eat. I've never wanted a burger so much in my life.
Remember kids, meat is murder. Tasty, tasty murder.
BYE.

i canz read meaningful book?
Today I was hungering for a good book. I haven't read anything in a while. My first stop was to Gametraders, to see if they had any new Mangas. I usually look for any I need, or just buy the #1 of a series I haven't read. Alas, they were closed, so next stop was to the only other bookstore I like, Dymocks. I went looking for Watchmen, but they didn't have that. Then I thought about buying some Dean Koontz, but I remembered I had alot of his books unread at home. I felt like I wanted to read something different then I have read. Something I can be proud of reading. An informational type book.
The obvious choice was "The God Delusion"
Just the title grabbed me. I love anything about religion, especially if it's about the stupidity*, but at $30, and me only having $15** I couldn't get it. Luckily for me tho, my Mum, who saw Maos Last Dancer*** with me, decided to buy the book. So all these words were just for me to say the new book I'm reading is Maos Last Dancer.
In a side note of this, I just had the biggest jolt of the feeling I get at Christmas just then. I was watching Friends and then BAM. There were also some Christmas decorations out at the shops too. Bit odd, but I guess, it's only 3 months away.
Christopher kun, sez BYE ^^
*Yes, on occasions I have read many different religious scripts, and researched the beginnings of some religions online, so please don't come on here and try to convince me in God or anything. I have my beliefs already, thankyou
**Probably thinking "There's no book you could buy for $15" well observant reader, I could've bought 'Fantastic beats and where to find them' or 'Quidditch through the ages' I've read both of them, but lost the copys. I may buy them again
***My Mum and Sister keep calling it 'Mayos Last Dancer' like mayonaise. Even when Mum asked in Big W where is was, the girl asked another employee for 'Mayos Last Dancer' and it kind of annoyed me.

I canz rip off nurd kulcha?
First blog from the iPhone.
Right now I am walking around Stockland Townsville, in my favourite shop 'Jay Jays'. Something that annoys me about this shop tho is the same reason I love it.
The nerd shirts. All the shirts if Sonic, Ghostbuster, Transformers and the like. I love that this shop sells them, I can relive my youth, but at the same time, I get annoyed if someone buys them just for the 'Geek Quality'
The kids who only know what Ghostbusters is because it's part of pop-culture, who quote "Dont cross the streams" the be cool.
The kids who wears a sonic shirt, but never played the original games on a Sega, and lastly, anyone who buys the new Bumblebee shirt and says "But I the movie he wasn't a bug!"
If I ran the store, I'd probably have tests to see if people could buy any if the nerdy shirts
Double goes for bands tees.
Enough rambling, back to shopping. Bye-o-Nara.

i canz run arownd like a crazy man?
As you won't know, I have to get up early in the morning. It is very rare when I have to get up early, and usually I know a few days in advance. Then it's just a case of stocking up on energy drinks to get me through the day, but alas, this is not to be for tommorow. I may have skipped out on some friends (rather, ninja'ed away while hiding in a car) and afterwards I felt really bad. SO to make it up, I said I would go to their house tommorow morning (it's one of those cool kids party where they drink all night and don't go to bed. Different to my parties, where I'm all alone and I sit on the internet and don't go to bed.) SO anyway, since my normal bedtime is around 4a, and I'd need to get up at 8a (totally possible when I have caffeine btw) I thought I'd go to bed at 1:30-2a. I was watching hard at the time then BAM it was suddenly 3am.
WUTTHEBALLS. I thought it was late. I whipped out of all my windows, switched everything off, and headed to bed, only to see my clock said 2:07a
Of course I went back outside and re-checked, thinking my clock was wrong. Computer said it was 3:07a, and iPhone confirmed. Then I thought of the most unholy of all things on Earth. Daylight Savings, a time when some people in places make the time all screwy to save daylight or something. I don't know, where I live, that's not the case. Unfortaunetly, my iPhone and Computer thought I did do daylight savings, and f**cked my schedule up. I'm now more awake then I was thanks to running around like a crazy chicken man. Fixed both of them, and I see the time is now 2:19a, so I best hit the sack.
Do you know what daylight saving is about? Hit me up.

Goodnight you sexy things.
i can cownt to 3?
Usually when a new song comes out, and it gets SUPAH popular (like it's all over Twitter) I try not to listen to it, then onces it's old I swoop in like a mother-effer and go "OH so this is what it was about" and then go on about it. Why do I do this? Not sure, it's just my thing. I only do this for a few things (mainly songs) but yeah, onto the actual song.
3 if you didn't know, is Britney Spears new song. She is one fo the few singers who brings out just 1 song every now and then, and it goes big. I applaud her for it, but this song sounds like something for "Pri-zee schoolz; we is for dem gangstaz" The lyrics; like most of her songs; is the same thing OVER and OVER again. The most prominent lyrics?
1,2,3.
There is more words, but I only listen to the singing.
HAHA, best thought. The Count from Sesame Street singing it.
1, ha ha ha, 2 ha ha ha.
Screw the song, just bring on the count singing. There's your number 1 song.
I think that's enough for now. 4 blogs today (technically 3 yesterday, and 1 so far today, but I count my days from when I wake up to when I go to bed)
One, no wait...2 more things.
1. I'll be setting this blog up on my 'BlogPress' app for iPhone, so I can blog when I'm out, even more then I would on S404X and Server 404
2. New blog header. Just a temp for now, but the next one will be pretty much the same, maybe just a bit artier. Might pencil draw it.
Usually on S404X I'd be saying "Oh, I'm rambling" by now, BUT the point of this blog is to ramble for as long as I want. I love it.
Enough mindless stuff, I'm off to watch sxephil on Youtube. Christopher is now gone.
(I would post all the Youtubers I watch daily, but they're all pretty much the top 10s, but INCASE you don't know of them, or don't watch Youtube, the ONE Youtube you should definetly watch is Shay Carl and his Vlog channel SHAYTARDS. He is funny without really trying, and for that, I idolise him)

I think that's enough for now. 4 blogs today (technically 3 yesterday, and 1 so far today, but I count my days from when I wake up to when I go to bed)
One, no wait...2 more things.
1. I'll be setting this blog up on my 'BlogPress' app for iPhone, so I can blog when I'm out, even more then I would on S404X and Server 404
2. New blog header. Just a temp for now, but the next one will be pretty much the same, maybe just a bit artier. Might pencil draw it.
Usually on S404X I'd be saying "Oh, I'm rambling" by now, BUT the point of this blog is to ramble for as long as I want. I love it.
Enough mindless stuff, I'm off to watch sxephil on Youtube. Christopher is now gone.
(I would post all the Youtubers I watch daily, but they're all pretty much the top 10s, but INCASE you don't know of them, or don't watch Youtube, the ONE Youtube you should definetly watch is Shay Carl and his Vlog channel SHAYTARDS. He is funny without really trying, and for that, I idolise him)
KBYEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
i canz test owt browzerz?
I wonder how long I can keep up the 'i can haz' blog titles? We shall see. Right now I am testing out all the web browsers on my computer, to see which I like best. There was a time Safari was my #1, but it's become internet explorer again.
The browsers I currently have:
- Internet Explorer
- Safari
- Google Chrome (I'm using it atm)
- Firefox
Is there any I'm missing? Then contact me:
Gmail: clane.iphone@gmail.com
Skype: Christopherlane
Tweet: @christopherlane
Ping!: Christopherlane (Ping! Is an iPhone2iPhone messenger, currently free at the app store)
I'll be posting my reviews on each once I give them each a good run. Google Chrome seems to be alright at the moment. It gives me more space, but not sure if I'll leave it in the long run.
Christopher Lane, signing out.

i can haz rant 1: Ohaiiz.
There are alot of times that something will just angry up my blood. Often I use twitter for these things, but 140 characters is just not enough characters to fuel my anger. This then leads to multiple tweets, and that's not the point of twitter. I was thinking of using http://extras.theserver404.com but again, that's more for my artwork. I didn't know what to do. I needed an outlet, and now, there is.
i can haz rants* will host all my ranting. I can just tweet the title, and people can read if they want. I think it's a good idea. The posting of this blog will be a bit less structure then SERVER404 and S404X. I will post on this blog whenever I get annoyed. That could mean 10 posts in one day, and then none for a week, so keep an eye out for them. Now for my first rant;

TV Shows that have flashbacks, but use the same actors to play when the character is young.
Wow, that was a mouthful. You know what I mean tho. TV shows or movies that flashback say 20 years to when a character is a teen, and the same 30 year old actor plays the teenage self. They used to do this on 'Grounded for life' all the time, and everytime I'd see the 35 y/o actors playing there 16 year old self, all I'd think is "Wow, I'd hate to look old when I was SO young". I never wrote anything about it before because, well I thought it was the only thing to do it, until I was reading OK** today, and see that for the next 'Sex and The City' movie, the actress' will be playing themselves when they first met. Now I've never watched the show, but the actress' are about 45, right? The caption said they were taping scenes that would take place in the 80's, so that's 30 years ago. Now, to be safe, I'm saying the secene will be set in 1985, where they would all be 20, now this might JUST be me, but somehow, I don't think 4 45+ y/o women can play 20 year olds. Hey, that's just me. But that's the thing that really annoyed me today.
Until something else angries up my blood, my name is Christopher Lane, and i has had rant.
*i can haz rants was not my first choice for a name, my first idea was "Let Me Rant" and second choice was "iRants"
