Back in High School, it always puzzled me that the most homophobic boys were also “jocks”. To me it was extremely ironic to hear a group of garrulous kids yacking about “fags” while they undressed in front of each other and showered together, two of the most faggot-y […]
Contemporary film criticism is so excruciatingly dull and unvaried, not to mention biased. I suppose it’s apt that as Hollywood movies have become monotonous and tedious to watch, so too have its so-called critics. Never has there been such a palpable cult-like atmosphere where the self-important and the […]
Blink Twice isn’t merely an overrated movie, it suffers from many problems, including one glaring issue with the plot that I just couldn’t get past. I’m sure you’ll agree that it’s common sense not to wear expensive jewellery out in the street because it might get nicked. You […]
It’s that time of the year again; the air becomes frigid (like your mum), the nights become darker (like your mum’s perineum) and both television and radio becomes shittier (like your mum’s underwear). The point of that last sentence was to wake up all those slowly sleepwalking into […]
Defiance is a film that stars Daniel Craig and Liev Schreiber as the real-life Bielski brothers, who “defied” the Nazis and saved Jews from extermination, recruiting them into their resistance group.

The public seem to be infatuated yet mystified by quantum physics, so much so that the average person out there doesn’t question the absurdity of what they’re being told about the subject. The multiverse, wormholes, the butterfly effect, the grandfather paradox, string theory, and Schrödinger’s Cat, are all […]
As we approach the six month anniversary of the October 7th attacks in Israel and without an end to the slaughter of Gazans in sight, it would be a grave mistake for me not to temporarily come out of blogging retirement in order to comment on the ongoing […]
It’s a stereotype that Brits like bland food but it’s generally not true (fish and chips is mouthwatering for instance). If what’s appearing on our supermarket shelves is anything to go by however, this may soon become the truth. Thanks to the sugar tax, the demonisation of both […]
