No, me neither, but this cat seemingly does…


Stick with the video, it starts slow, but then again the movement is slow. I think the cat needs to invest in some camoflage…

I’m an undereducated neanderthal whom puts himself through learning stupidly difficult things for no reason at all. Case in point: the years of Japanese tuition. Over all of this time, I’ve had to endure the acting from CDs going through basic conversations, and although I’m still learning, I can’t help feeling that if a Japanese person heard them, it would be mildly amusing to them. Cue someone getting one of the English learning CDs and re-purposing the audio for non-intended circumstances…

It’s a bank holiday here in the UK. That means a day off for many people, and extra pay for way too much work for the skeleton staff stuck in offices. Afterwards, I would expect many to want a post-work tipple. Some more than others. Heck, some may even do a Power Hour. Cue the pastiche of Kanye West’s “Power”…


2. Happy Monday! (Late due to the bank holiday, calm down…)

Expressing your love for a fantastic author may be difficult. Dressing up as Harry Potter and stalking J.K. Rowling would be illegal and wrong, yet would feel just right. But what if you can’t really do that because the author is a recluse whom doesn’t understand the internet, yet have contacts to musical friends and plenty of free time on your hands?

Why, This!

On a daily basis, I come across such hard tasks that even I in my greatness require assistance. Usually I will search online or read a book. Unfortunately the internet can be boring when it comes to basic information issuing.

But what if Batman were to teach you…
If only….


Thanks to Thomas Perkins for this suggestion of epicness.

The Guild is a fantastic web series in it’s 4th season. Featuring a collection of gaming misfits trying to manage their lives around gaming together, it’s made me laugh a fair few times. Their music videos, however, are exceptional. Remember the Do You Wanna Date My Avatar video? Here’s their take on Bollywood music productions…

I’m not a fan of equipment meant for chores that doesn’t live up to expectations. A washing machine should be able to take anything that you throw in it, especially heavy loads. Yet somehow this isn’t what was expected by the manufacturers…
