FLASH! Video comic for 21st century kids.

My mate Richie always sends me annoying mails instead of just leaving a comment like everybody else. He wanted to know what the FLASH video is in yesterday’s post. So now I have to repeat myself. It’s nothing to do with Adobe Flash or Flash Gordon, it’s a video from 1984. I had a youtube [...] read more...

Fake Sylvanian Families

I kicked my fake toy problem about 4 years ago but sometimes you have to make an exception. I don’t think it surprising for a grown man to like Sylvanian Families, it would be a surprise if he DIDN’T like them. I love them, have lots of them and have spent a small fortune on [...] read more...

How to get a haemorrhoid

First it was the inability to get a decent boner, then my gammy knee, then carpal tunnel syndrome but now the most recent ailment is a haemorrhoid. It’s gone now though, in as much as they can disappear, but for more than a week I was crippled by it. Had to sit down on a [...] read more...

The Gypsy Rose in Dublin

I was back in Dublin last week for a few days and went to meet my brother in that new pub where The Viper Room used to be. What an awful name to call a club, the Viper Room. I went there before and in the toilets instead of seeing the usual jovial black man [...] read more...

I had headlice

I have ants in my studio. Only a few but some days I notice them. I also have a gecko that lives under a poster who I presume likes eating ants so it all balances out I suppose. I was gazing absently at the floor when I saw a tiny spec crawling along. I then [...] read more...

Is Top Gear fake and scripted?

(this is an ancient post from the old site but it still gets hundreds of hits a day so here it is again) Is Top Gear fake and scripted? Yes. A strange topic to bring up here but it needs to be said. I’ve been watching it and enjoying it for 3 weeks in a [...] read more...

F*ck the Documentary

That is the title of an absolutely pointless, childish and stupid documentary I had the misfortune to watch a few weeks ago. There’s maybe a decent 30 minute programme in there somewhere but it’s stretched out to a feature. A long, smug feature. It avoids the etymological side completely which would be probably most people’s [...] read more...

Killer Wasp and Power Dots

I found out what the huge 2 inch wasp is from the last post about flies, it’s called the Cicada Killer Wasp. Imagine a cigarette lighter with wings making the sound of a vibrator left on a glass table. Absolutely terrifying. Cicada Killer Wasp meets Adversary from ACTnow! on Vimeo. I’m going back to Dublin [...] read more...
