I’ve obviously been using the internet for far too long. Its peculiar fads, its lingo, and its self-absorbed recycling of others’ creativity has started to colour my perceptions of RL.
How else then could I possibly respond to this direct mail from KiwiBank without seeing it as one half of a goatse?
Hey! Maybe it’s on purpose! It wouldn’t be the first time such a thing has been sneaked past the unsuspecting. If so, what next? A KiwiBank lolcat ?
Send me the money, now.
My name is Alan Macdougall, and this is my website. There's more about me here, if you really want to get carried away about it.
On the other hand, there's a whole lot of my favourite recent links of interest, photos I've taken, and other stuff over on the Elsewhere page, and there's always the site archives over in Bygones for additional excitement.
But probably you just want to find something specific (why else would you scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, right?), so here's the search box instead.

I notice it says “to give your Aussie bank the elbow” [your flickr posting]. Don’t they mean fist?

Are you suggesting what I think you’re suggesting? [Wikipedia, somewhat NSFW] That’s, er, certainly another possible explanation…
