You should be ashamed… but are you really?

My apologies as ever for the sporadic nature of my submissions. Unfortunately work and the real world have got in the way of spouting bile and bilge on here. On top of that, someone seems to have cruelly swapped my spine with one from a 130 year old corpse, which means that on occasion I can’t walk without feeling like I’ve been shot in the kidneys by a Sherman Tank.

My suffering is inconsequential however, when compared to the guilt ridden anxiety that every single British citizen has had to endure for the last 7 days because of Simon Cowell and Britain’s Got Talent.  Read more... (661 words, estimated 2:39 mins reading time)

The Hills have eyes… but not much between the ears

Ladies and gentlewarts… there are times when the Bloggods bestow a great vision upon me. Today, I have gone to the mountain, and a great voice called out to me:

“Oi, you… yes, the bloke trying to dress like the Joker and in dire need of a shave. Yes, you… put those pissing pop-tarts down and listen. The Hills is on tonight. Seriously, if you like self-inflicted pain, you have to watch it. Sober.”  Read more... (966 words, 2 images, estimated 3:52 mins reading time)

Ladies and gentlemen. I am a proud man, and as TS will tell you I am not one to admit defeat or error easily. It therefore makes it difficult to admit that…

… I was impressed by the originality of an idea in the new Celebrity Big Brother series.

It’s like admitting addiction to heroin… having to publicly state something that flies in the face of everything that society expects!  Read more... (705 words, estimated 2:49 mins reading time)

Lord of the Pies

OK, confession time. Last night Techno Scouse caught me watching something i shouldn’t have been on TV. It involved a group of hot teens, and plenty of big naked boobs. Obviously I know these programmes are on TV most nights, but they’re always trashy pieces of crap that fill schedules. I guess I just had a moment of weakness and got found out. She’s forgiven me, but I still feel a real sense of shame and embarassment.  Read more... (635 words, estimated 2:32 mins reading time)

Righty ho… well as I’m having a relatively good day, and so far I have not seen Derek Acorah or Jade Goodey on TV, there is no specific thing I fancy writing about. However, I do fancy adding something to this little blog, in the vain hope of amusing and entertaining you dear readers.

And so, I thought I would give a little look at what’s in the papers. It will give our non-UK cousins a chance to get a flavour of the Nation that spawned an empire. In light of this grand aspiration, it is only proper that I use the finest daily publication as my source of news. I speak of course of The Sun:  Read more...
