Different kinds of warm

Bite Sized Add comments

Feb 122012

So, we have a canteen at work. Every day it serves different warm dishes in addition to the main one.

Normally they have a pretty good idea as to what they’re serving and announce it accordingly.

Last Friday, however, they seem to have looked at whatever they’ve cooked and said “fuck it, it’s some kind of food, we’re not committing to anything”.

Because this is what the sign next to the dish said:

Warm, Different kinds of warm

I'm actually more into "various kinds of hot" myself

I, spam collector: 10 ridiculous spam lines
By now you know that making fun of spam is kind of my thing. Thanks to this undoubtedly unhealthy hobby I have been collecting all sorts of spam, instead of deleting it from my junk mail folder like most sane people.

The 5 types of junk in my Twitter Direct Messages inbox
I’ve grown to really like Twitter. Sure, it may be a place full of irrelevant verbal haemorrhage. Sometimes the steady stream of random tweets makes me feel like I’m stuck in the mind of a deranged telemarketer. People are out there promoting stuff, making inane statements about the colour of their breakfast or sharing regurgitated inspirational quotes. In short, it’s [.....]
Wednesday fun: I respond to a hate comment…
In late 2011 I’ve written a blog post where I made fun of the sexist nature of a book called “Don’ts For Wives”. You can read this world-famous and critically acclaimed article right here. Today I woke up to a fun little comment on that article: I’m extremely touched to have received my first ever hate comment. This means I’m [.....]

However, not all crazy folk [.....]
I, Spam Detective: 7 Obvious Spam Signs
Identifying spam isn’t exactly rocket science. Mainly because it involves neither rockets nor science. There are only a few categories of spam mails and virtually all of them revolve around penises. An email sent to you by “Best Enlargement Pills” is typically a good tip off that it’s spam, because not many people have friends called Best Enlargement Pills. If [.....]
8 Awesome Superpowers (that can be yours thanks to eBay)
eBay is a great place. Even though I’ve never bid on anything myself, I’m sure countless people have become proud owners of everything from collectible toothpicks to self-sufficient private islands and nuclear launch codes. It’s a place where buyers can find almost anything they want and sellers get a fair price for whatever it is they’re selling. Hurrah to consumerism! [.....]
Versatile Blogger Award? Why thanks!
Some weeks back a fellow writer, blogger and Twitterer by the name of M. E. Franco has sent a shoutout my way on Twitter. The tweet read: “Versatile Blogger Award worthy!”. Upon reading that I thought: “Well, cool! I’m certainly a blogger, I guess I’m versatile and I also know that ‘award’ is a noun. So it’s nice to have [.....]
23 great tips from “Don’ts for Wives” (or marriage advice for sexists)
A few days ago I have stumbled upon a tiny book at my friend’s place. This book was entitled “Don’ts for Wives”. Judging from the title, it focused exclusively on what not to do, so I knew straight away it was going to be a cheerful and inspirational read. I flipped through the pages and pretty soon it became clear that [.....]
“The Sound Of Music”: Mock Recap (Part I)
“The Sound Of Music” was one of those classic musicals that everyone “must watch”, yet I’ve managed to miss out on. Remember, I grew up in Ukraine, behind the Iron Curtain. Sounds of music were not high on the agenda, unless they were the National Anthem of the Soviet Union. Around one year ago my girlfriend found out about this [.....]
The new “Facebook Timeline” or “RIP Privacy”
As recently as one month ago Facebook announced a major upcoming overhaul of the site’s user interface.

Vietnam 2011: General Observations (Part I)

Elephant parades and pedantic pursuits
From June 1st to August 25th 2011 Copenhagen was the scene of a colourful phenomenon. Over a hundred painted elephant statues were found scattered all around the city centre, much to the confusion and joy of passers by.

Living with a psycho: a true story (Part I)
Everyone knows flatmates can be difficult. They leave their socks all over the place, hog the TV and constantly keep nagging you about something called “rent”. But what if your flatmate is an undiagnosed schizophrenic prone to sporadic outbursts of insanity? Meet Bent. Yes, that’s his real name, and as you will soon learn it’s somewhat fitting. “Batshit Insane Lunatic” [.....]
