Spoiler alert. I never would’ve suspected that Jamilla was in on the plot to rob Kaylene of her father’s inheritance by posing as a penguin saleswoman, or that she was put up to the task by Ulysses, who secretly wanted to simply get down into the treasure vault of Kaylene’s ancestors to steal the Mask …
There’s always one piece left over. ALWAYS. You think you’re done, I always think I’m done, but I’ve forgotten something, every single time. It’s become a cliche at this point. It’s like my brain automatically removes one thing out of everything I do and stores it to one side for…reasons. My Christmas jigsaw was a …
My favourite cartoon has knocked it out of the park again, with a tacit depiction of an often-overlooked part of society. And by ‘tacit’, I do of course mean there’s a ton of magic and the main character is an ordinary guy surrounded by a bunch of illogically-attractive people, all vying for his attention, just …
There was a report on Melbourne Minutes that was basically just listing all the things that people say will give you health problems in the future. There was the sun of course, mobile phones, maple flavoured bacon, a very specific brand of chocolate buttons…um…it was very long and very silly. But now, they say, there …
There are plenty of people interested in caring for the environment, but only a few interested in caring for the environment, you get me?

Elsa has been hassling me again about wanting to make over her room. I’ve had my reservations about it because she’s so prone to changing her mind, and I don’t want to shell out a bunch of cash for something she’s not going to want to live with in six months. But she’s been going …
Aargh! There’s hair everywhere! I’ve just moved in with my girlfriend and her dog, and it’s taking a bit of adjusting to. The Labrador hair I was ready for, but the human hair in the plughole has been a… surprise. It’s partly because I’ve always had very short hair, but I’m starting to suspect that …
You’d think being trapped in a virtual world would be great fun. That, or really dull, what with all of it just being code and whatnot. I haven’t seen Word-Art Online, the show about the people who get stuck inside a Word document, but I certainly know of it. It has virtual reality hijinks, just …
