Ex-Tabula Rasa

I shall try to define myself in a sentence with a pithy comment at the end:
I'm just an English bloke who lives in Canada after marrying a Canadian lady he met while living in Japan. Yeah, that old cliché.

Shameless Self-Promotion:
My utterly hilarious blog is here
And another one is here

Wow! I'm on Twitter now!
Averaging three stars a tweet since the death of Favrd!

Still Want More?
Email me for fun and frolics*! My address goes along the lines of Japanese (dot) smoth (@) gmail (dot) com. *Actual ratio of fun to frolics may vary.

How I imagine Tumblr monetization meetings to go

Not Jon Karp #1: “So, with my projections, when introduced, this feature will be paid for and used by around 5% of our user base, which will earn us revenue of lots of money.”

Not Jon Karp #2: “I like it. Makes sense. A lot of people will want to do that. It improves the user experience for those who use it, and it’s not intrusive for those who don’t. Jon? What do you think?”

Jon Karp: “It’s good and all…but…where are the stickers?”

Not Jon Karp #1: “Oh God, Jon? What is it with you and stickers?”

Jon Karp: “I just think we can make a lot more money with stickers! People love stickers!”

Not Jon Karp #2: “But the things you keep suggesting are not even stickers, Jon. They’re on a computer. They’re not actually sticky. They don’t stick to things.”

Jon Karp: I MUST HAVE MY STICKERS! LEAVE ME NOW AND DO NOT COME BACK UNTIL YOU HAVE MONETIZED TUMBLR WITH SOME FORM OF STICKER!
