I wos blagged.


I have been robbed, some little twats crawled into a window and nicked my bag with my computer, cameras, and a few other things, Laika must have scared them off, cause I heard her go downstairs but thought nothing of it.
Obviously I claimed from my insurance company, who has 6 weeks later repudiated my claim, and my broker now is fighting this using the ombudsman to do so.
This is all part of a trend I have noticed; it seems like every company out there offering a service is out to do you in, like thieves in the night. My insurance company, 20 years of premiums, but when it comes to a claim do everything not to reimburse you for your loss, even the accessor makes you feel like you were wrong by even claiming.
My Medical Aid, now there is an oxymoron, premium every month over a R1200, but how is it that I run out of funds half way through the year, hell!, I will buy a month, maybe two before year end but half way? Then I’m on some meds I have to take constantly so I apply for chronic benefits, hell that’s repudiated because they don’t think it’s necessary, so either my Doctor is an asshole or they are, and after spending 7 years studying I doubt my Doctor is.
My satellite service provider, DSTV, how is it that I pay a load for a full service, but receive only half the channels cause your signal is so bad? And don’t give me that shit about the weather and my dish and all that crap, cause everyone in the neighborhood suffers the same problem even on a freaking clear summers day without bad weather anywhere, and in the next neighborhood it’s perfect. That’s not what pisses me off though, it’s that you have an automated response system designed to not respond to anything, and when you finally speak to someone, they no less than the neighbors pet poodle.
My phone service provider, how is it possible that I am paying so much for a service yet you are unable to give me an exact breakdown on where, and at what time this expenditure took place, so I can at very least see if there is a problem.
Car guards that stand there waving you in and out of an open parking bay, like you are some retard and need the help, pretending to take care of your car, but if someone tried to steal it they would be the first to run off, if not the ones trying to steal it, and then when you get back to your car, look dude it’s still here with that expectant look on their faces waiting to be paid, fuck you! Have a little dignity and beg, at very least it’s honest.
And the list goes on, but that will probably just bore you as much as it does me.

So do me a favor, go out and blast one of your service providers that don’t give you what you pay for, lets start our own trend and kick their asses

Love and Happiness

At this time of year when everyone is reminded that being a human being is being kind and loving, forgiving and tolerant, I feel that it's all bullshit, this is not a state for the holidays, this should be a constant state and something we should strive towards in our everyday lives. I blogged about being a "mensch" and perhaps it's good to remind ourselves what it means to be one. what follows is that blog A while ago I mentioned being a “mensch” and I was not really clear on what it means. A good friend and client brought this in for me, it’s part of an article written by Charlotte Cohen, and it sums it up well. What is a honourable mensch It is a voice, and the understanding behind it. It is the eyes, and the intelligence behind them. It is the recognition that support is needed, and asked for, giving it And the kindness that lies behind all of that. It’s keeping quiet when one ought and speaking when one should and knowing the difference. It’s giving pr...

A little this and that

It’s been a while since my last post, but I’m not going to bore you with bullshit post every second day. I have been meaning to get some stuff out, but have refrained, but some stuff just has to come out. Firstly, I have plugged a restaurant called “Orinoco” in Bree street, great value and authentic South American food, I’m afraid to say, no longer, I took Nicci for dinner and two ridiculous portions of poorly cooked food, cost over R480-00, I’m sorry, but that’s just retarded, and had the food been of an epic standard, it would not have pissed me off so much, but this is just fucked up. I complained to the owner, and the best she could do was shrug her shoulders, well that’s blown it for me, they certainly will not see me there again, and I would suggest you stay away too. It is just amazing how the odd little magazine article and a little plug here and there can give people such an attitude, Bob said it best, “Be good to the people you meet on the way up, cause you’re b...

The World Fuck..... sorry I mean CUP

I'm Italian and I'm pissed at Italy going out of the world cup, as Italians we are just build that way when it comes to soccer, but right now I'm pissed! I'm pissed at a Mexican ref that's just an asshole, pissed that Suarez felt it necessary to bite someone, but most of all I'm pissed that a poes like Mario Balotelli gets to play in a world cup, when he has to be without doubt the biggest waste of space on the european continent, I just can't find the right negative superlatives to describe his performance on and off the field. I'm not even going to get into his performance on and off the field. That's the one and only world cup post from me....
