    I'm baaaacccckkk...

    I came back once. Back from the precipice. Back from the very edge of the abyss. I'm telling you guys, it was like staring into the folds of a really fat man. It really was that horrific. If I hadn't been possessed of an incredible kind of gumption, that kind that eleven out of ten guys inherit...

    Happy Birthday

    Well, well, well. As if poor old Dean Winchester hasn't had enough to suffer in his life already. I thought I'd seen him go through the ringer already. He nearly died by electrocution and was only saved by an unwitting reaper. He nearly died by a combination of demon attack and car crash, and...

    Regrets. Do you have any?

    I have a few but I do prefer not to think about them. I think it's inevitable in life that you're going to be presented with a choice of pathways at numerous times. Making a choice between the two, and finding in retrospect that your choice was not so good, shall always make you wonder about the...

    Low Frequency Soundwave and the Placebo effect.

    I have to express my alarm at the idea of these evil soundwaves that will seek me out and deliver highly dangerous modes of orgasm. I know what you're thinking - an orgasm is an orgasm, right? - but falling in love/lust with a soundwave may lead me to a state of peril beyond any states of peril...

    What cheered you up today?

    I've been doing 'fitness stuff' all week while I'm off work, and the endorphins seem to be keeping me in good spirits, no matter what happens. There's nothing as relaxing nor as stress-relieving as a bit of semi-hard, physical work. Well, apart from shouting a lot at people you don't like.

    Best Friends

    Hmmm ... interesting topic. One thing I have to say first before we even get started. YOU NEVER, EVER, EVER know your friends that well. I know what you're thinking - of course I do. I've known so-and-so since we were born three yards apart from each other, two minutes apart from each other...

    Act I

    I don't know why people always say to aspiring writers 'write something every day.' Surely better advice for aspiring writers would always be 'experience something every day ... then write about it!' Writing is not that hard. Getting the right words in the right order is something that a million...

    What Genre of Music Do You Like?

    I will listen to anything that doesn't dredge up images of inbred, backwater hicks going wild on their gee-tars. That's not to say that I like the broad mass of what constitutes every other genre, just that there are songs from most genres that I like and appreciate. I am a big fan of classical...

    Damn that smooth talking Salesman

    Sales people can't get me. In fact, sometimes, if they're getting too much, I turn my gaze upon them, switch on my black magicks, and send them running into the back room with a sudden case of explosive diarrhea. I know what you're thinking - would my mother approve of that? - but my mother's...

    What cheered you up today?

    The weather has been divine here too (I imagine it would be seeing as I'm probably only 80 miles or so away from you, but I still feel the need to say this as if it is some great and impossible revelation)! I even burned my neck, the sun was so hot. In fact, the sun and I had a little bit of an...

    Bucket List

    I really want to start a war at some time in my life, preferably over something stupid, like somebody putting too much sugar in my tea (I don't like tea, so maybe I could start a war over them serving me tea AND putting too much sugar in it). I know it sounds like an awfully childish ambition...

    The Downfall of Final Fantasy.

    I always saw Final Fantasy games as story-based drama, albeit one in which you're a willing passenger. Some will look at the gameplay and the mechanics and say that some of the next-gen (starting at VII) Final Fantasies pushed the boundaries of gaming ahead of their time. Don't get me wrong...

    Serious Moving out / Unemployment

    I'm a serial fibber when it comes to job applications. I lie, I fabricate, I embellish. Nobody more conceited than I has ever set foot in an interview. The moment I step into an interview, it's all about me. There can be no quarrel, it's all about how great I am, and how brilliant I am going to...

    Favorite Sport

    My favourite sport is cricket. It's a love shared by a select few, but I am a member at my local county (Nottinghamshire), and was lucky enough to see a large part of our Championship winning season last year. Many people misunderstand cricket. It's a sport of immense depth and complexity. Few...

    PS2 > PS3

    All the old consoles were better for me. The latest generation of consoles has brought about a succession of impressive looking games, but the best stories were told on previous consoles in a more accessible form. In fact, there isn't a single current generation game that I go back and play...

    George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire

    Oh my god! Sean Bean! I'll watch anything with Sean Bean in. That guy is a legend, even if he does support Sheffield United. I've never read these books - they seem a bit too much out of fantasy canon for my liking, but I'll happily watch a TV programme with swords and magick and stuff in it...

    Tech Apple Hatred.

    I don't hate companies irrationally. I think there's a lot of pretentiousness about the whole Apple brand, and some of the marketing really gets on my nerves, but they do tend to make good and semi-original products, a few of which I own. I tend to agree that there's a lot of wanton hatred...

    Hello how are you today

    All small talk makes people look and/or sound socially retarded. It's so decadent and you can just see in the eyes of the people who are committing this atrocity that they can hear the sound of chalk scraping across a blackboard in their head. Yeah, yeah, they sound very nice when they're saying...

    Personally, I only said yes to your friend request so you could bask in the glory of having an eleven out of ten guy in your friend list. Yes, yes, you're welcome - don't thank me too hard, etc.

    Why is god benevolent?

    You know the way people are, and the way they hurt people they love. I don't understand the obsession with benevolent god over malevolent or in-between god. With the way the world is, doesn't a malevolent god have more of a place in our world than a benevolent god? I'm not saying that there is...
