Heathernet defined
This is almost wacky enough for the newly debuted TDOWT..W!?, but we've got to have some standards around here. Still, imagine my surprise when a google search of "heathernet" turned up this link (Caution: may contain NSFW banner ads) from Urban Dictionary.
It's not all that inaccurate either!
TDOWT…W!?: British Airways ad
(The Department of What the... What!?: Sometimes something will strike The Heathernet as so ridiculously off that it needs to be instantly commented on. The TDOWT...W!? chronicles these abuses of our minds.)
Apparently this travesty of an ad (a tradvertisement) inspires the airline customer to associate the commercial with oceanic amounts of space in British Airways new Heathrow terminal. That's what I learned from the YouTube blurb from the embedded video below. What I learned from the actual commercial is as follows, the world will be flooded by oceans soon, the airport will still be packed, and seals make everyone uncomfortable with their public displays of affection. See what you think:
Heath update: Employment? I guess.
I am fairly certain that all quarter dozen readers of The Heathernet are currently enthralled by Um, excuse me: The Murphy liveblog, nonetheless, time for a real life update!
I'll give a little background first. Finally graduated in May, got a degree in something that really spoke to me: Broadcasting. Did my last year as a staff member at Camp Fowler this summer. Then I hit the job search. Bought an account with TVjobs.com. Applied to jobs at ESPN, WGBH, NESN, Versus, NBC, and WTEN right here in Albany. Got an interview with WTEN, went well, but then the position wasn't actually open. Holiday season approaches. Keep applying. Throw in seasonal applications at Borders, Target. Got hired at Target. Start within a week. Working as an "Electronics Team Member" and maybe will move up to "Electronics Specialist." Wait, wait, wait... what? How and when did that happen?
I was just coping with the moping jobless life and now I have to make a snap adjustment to full time holiday retail. Oh, I have my experience, but I thought I shut that door and locked that box and through it in a cage with the pink gorilla. This is a good thing, a good idea, and a certain stress reliever when I open my wallet and peer inside mid-January. Still, as I rifled through the Sears racks tonight, looking for khaki pants with an armful of identical red polos, I felt like some kind of weird puppet. Someone else suddenly started playing the part of me-living... and soon they're going to make me ask you if you'd like to sign up for a credit card.
