Why is there such a huge obsession with the so-called iDevices? It doesn’t matter what new features they bring, whether it’s “state-of-the-art” FaceTime or maybe the innovative use of a bigger screen, the iNuts (those with the aforementioned obsession) will flock forward with their wallets ready. FaceTime sounded great at first. Finally proper video calling [...]

I hate Simon Cowell and all he stands for and adores. There, now that is out of the way, I can at least attempt to be objective. The Prince of Darkness himself has now been given even more credit for abusing our eyes and ears with his talentless wannabes by BAFTA who plan to give [...]

Curse the English language. Its tricksy ways have caught me out on numerous occasions and it has just happened once more. Unless you’ve been doing better things over the last month or so, you might know there was an election in the UK recently. The outcome of said election was far from clear and we’re [...]

The BBC are not that good at pop culture. Sure, they have plenty of TV shows which appear to be ‘cool’, but they’re all old. Take Dr Who for instance – hardly something fresh from the Noughties, right? But still it is very popular and is a part of pop culture once more, perhaps more [...]

The Swiss. They’re an odd bunch. So it comes as no surprise that they were the ones who came up with the idea of animal laywers. No, this is not the idea of animals being lawyers, more the idea of animals getting legal representation in matters which might affect them, like cruelty cases. Proponents claimed [...]

Cheryl Cole has finally realised that her soon-to-be ex-husband is a twat, being quoted as saying “I can’t believe I’ve been with him for 4 years – he can barely tie his own shoelaces”. Well, she might have said that if she were able to string more than 5 coherent words together. Why the rest [...]

When you were 5, what did you know? Probably not all that much. What did you want to be? Something like ‘dinosaur’, ‘astronaut’ or ‘super awesome ninja man’ used to be the usual answer. Nowadays, kids aged 5 and up should be expected to be planning for their futures, have a grasp of current affairs [...]

Racial epithets are rarely good business. This is the new business strategy of the Russians at Gazprom with their new 2.5 billion dollar joint venture in Nigeria – Nigaz. The Nigerians don’t care. The fact that the word ‘Nigaz’ is a portmanteau of the words ‘Nigeria’ and ‘Gazprom’ and is pronounced as ‘nye-gaz’ is enough [...]

Everyone gets spam, its like a law of the universe or something. But when you think back, we always got spam. Way before the invention of e-mail, we were (and still are) getting inundated with leaflets, pamphlets, print adverts, TV commercials, radio spots and informercials until we could virtually memorise them. Trust me, if I [...]

The world is in turmoil as we speak. Swine flu is sweeping the entire known extent of the universe (rumours are even God himself caught it after a dodgy sausage butty) and the economic crisis means soon, you won’t be able to afford to breathe. Aside from all this, another global conflict is brewing in [...]
