Plus, has anyone else noticed the climate changing? Of course you have. Longer, colder winters are going to be followed by the hotter and hotter summers which is going to devastate the ecological balance in this country and cause billions of pounds worth of damage. It has already! How the hell are we gonna turn all this around now? The timing couldn’t be better and it’s enough to...

Positive 2009
I’m going to focus on the good and fun things I do this year in an effort not to notice the poo things.
1st January - I went to my first Ice Hockey match in Guildford. The journey back was pants, cause it was freezing and… wait no… positive things. It was different and entertaining to watch. I’d go again when it’s warmer outside. Or when I have a car.
5th January -...

“You are not soldiers. You have no discipline, no training, no honour.
You do...”
– What the judge Justice Irwin said to the dirty excuse for a teenager who shot Rhys Jones. I’m sick of these idiotic, self-righteous gang members calling themselves ‘soldiers’. This guy’s words are just spot on.

Most people know more as they get older: I give all that the cold shoulder.
I spent my second quarter-century Losing what I had learnt at university And refusing to take in what had happened since. Now I know none of the names in the public prints,
And am starting to give offence by forgetting faces And swearing I’ve never been in certain places.
It will be worth...

One Eating Disorder Please
cultshasha:
I have just realised how skinny I have become. I pledge to eat my sweet ass off until I start to look remotely healthier again. Time for a quick trip to the supermarket before work.
But I need recipes, part of the reason I don’t have any food is because I don’t really know what I’m doing with it. I hate throwing away food even more than starving; which is a bit backward I suppose. I...

Chunky Chips
The chunky chips aren’t up to par today.
I’m not impressed,
The Colour of Money Isn't Brown
cultshasha:
No one has any concrete answers because we’ve been living in a flawed system for years. We’re just going to have to knuckle down and work harder for our wages and forget about the age of instant credit for awhile.
Don’t wanna!
Tropic Thunder
I’m going to the Tropic Thunder premiere. And by that I mean, I’m going to the premiere. You know, the film with Ben Stiller, Robert Downey Jr, Jack Black, Steve Coogan and Tom Cruise. Yeah, I’m going.
How fucking sweet is that?!
The Canteen
Yesterday I posted about my disappointing meal that I purchased from the canteen.
I mentioned how when I ordered a portion of chunky chips, the member of staff gave me five initially. I had to pass the box back and ask for more. Five chips for 50p.
Right well today when I went downstairs, I was standing there wondering what to buy and I noticed the same guy servinf up a portion of chunky chips...
Gone Off Food
I’m probably going to start posting on here a bit more now that I can access tumblr on my work computer. I mean home. I’m at home. Not at work. And if I was, I’d be on my lunch break, anyway.
I just had a burger from the canteen downstairs. And chunky chips. The canteen has annoyed me before with things in the past, like varying portion sizes and stupid ideas they come up with....

Mr T's Secret

My brother called yesterday, he said he was unhappy to be working the entire weekend. He’s a chief working in the kitchen at one of those My Hotels in London.

Luck
Hello.
I have decided to start catalogueing my luck. Or, rather, lack of it.
I’m not saying good things don’t happen to me, I guess they do in small doses, but they sure do not appear half as much as the bad luck.
Yeah, so I’m not a starving child with AIDS in Africa. And I haven’t been kept in a cellar for 24 years either. But for a person growing up in London, in my...
Who Needs Sleep?
I am an incredibly light sleeper. I’m usually a silent sleeper too. On the rare occasion that I make a noise, I always wake myself up with the first snore. I think it comes from when I was a child. My neighbours were loud, pretty much 24 hours a day. When one neighbour was quiet and decidede to turn their music off, anotherwould start until 4am. It was hell. So I used to struggle to sleep...
Live TV feed of some teeny baby lions and their... →
What the title says, really. A hidden camera has been put in the den of a family of lions. Four little babies and their mum. If you catch them at the right time of day, it’s very cute and interesting. Bear in mind, Lions spend most of their time sleeping though. But is seriously worth checking out a few times a day. These babies are so young they’re still in their den and...
Soundtrack to my Life
I don’t usually do these kinds of things. But today I did…
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc) 2. Put it on shuffle 3. Press play 4. For every question, type the song that’s playing 5. When you go to a new question, press the next button 6. Don’t lie and try to pretend your cool

Crocodile Shoes
As I won’t be having kids (and I’m happy with this decision… don’t get me into a rant), I find stories about my workmate’s young children interesting. There are things I won’t have to go through like spending loads of money on nappies and baby food and annoying things like that. But there’s some fun stuff I’ll miss out on, too.

Phor Kune Kung Fu →
This is the Kung Fu group I joined recently. I’m off to a lesson in about an hour, in fact.
It’s a good martial arts to do. The classes are small, so I get a lot of one on one help from the instructors, and you don’t have to be super fit to start, your fitness will build up over the weeks. I had to miss the last two weeks after I cracked my rib. But I’m back today and...
Sunday
I’m not sure how it’s possible to get a sunburn without any sun. I did the Walk for Life today. A 10km trek through London. The weather was ok but not exactly hot. And I got sunburnt. How?! Anyway, I did it and my legs ache and I’m tired. Now I just need to collect the money from my sponsors. I’ve also come up with an idea for a script or story. It still needs some padding...

Camden
Today I went to Camden. I don’t go very often. I like it there but there is an air of pretentiousness about it. You see people walking around with this ‘Oh my God, I’m shoping in Camden, I’m so out there and cool’ expression on there faces and incorporated into their body language. I want to slap them and send them back to shopping in H & M on Oxford Street. I...
TRS2: Mincey Scattercushion by Emily Webber →
My first ever comic review - for a comic that doesn’t exist yet! Woo! The guy is basically reviewing a preview handout thing for my comic Mincey Scattercushion, to generate some interest for when the comic comes out. So people will see the comic on sale in the future and think ‘that looks familiar’ and buy it. I’m certainly more enthused about finishing off the first issue...
June 2008 - Pirate’s Booty - Los Angeles Magazine →
Saw this on the main Tumblr page. Is an interesting read. Is an interview with a guy who worked as Jack Sparrow in a Disney park. He was fired for silly reasons.
Crazy Dreaming
Something which I suppose is interesting about me, is that I’m a lucid dreamer. I don’t think I get enough of that deep sleep stuff which is when you’re actually getting proper rest. I dream a lot. Sometimes I can control it. If I don’t like my dream, I’m aware I’m asleep and usually I’ll fly off and change my dream. I think I’ll start noting down my...
Numpy
It’s a bit odd. I created this account, kind of inspired by my tall speccy friend, and though ‘Great, I can use this as a clever blog thing. I can share my thoughts with the world and immortalise the various (sometimes) interesting things that happen to me, and everyone who reads it will think I’m great’. If I was sitting around a table in a pub somewhere, most often in...

Click on the fun song and the clip. Makka Pakka is awesome. The best character on TV in years.
Home - Modern Monstrosity Comics →
The website for Modern Monstrosity, which consists of two guys who make their own comics and share them with the world. The website has details about their stuff, mostly Tales From the Flat, as well as other art and amusing reports from various comic conventions they attend to flog their stuff. Buy their comics.

This is an awesome webcomic. Before you screw up your nose at the thought of reading an online comic and brand me a nerd, just check it out. It’s very different to other webcomics I’ve seen out there. The humour is spot on and the artwork is amazing. The story follows a group of cats during the days of speakeasys, guns and shiny old cars during the Prohibition in the U.S. Give it a...
Today + 1
I spent ages working on what to say in my last post, and the woman on this walkthrough thing is telling me to create another one. I’m not sure I like her bossing me around like this.
Today
Today I played Grand Theft Auto IV for about 7 and a half hours (on and off). And then I created this tumblr page-thing. My friend told me to do it. I’m not sure how to use it yet.
