Mallett: A Suitable Case for Treatment
After many decades of fruitless viewing I am privileged to finally witness a true schism of the human mind on Live television, specifically ‘I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here’ and the slowly dying bolus of 80′s flesh that is Timmy Mallett. Watching emotions seep across Timmy’s face when he thinks the camera isn’t on him (which it [...]

Why does everybody love this c*nt?
First of all, apologies for the profanity. Anyone who reads my posts knows full well that my comments are often polite to the point of verbosity – the principle difference, perhaps, between my writings and roundcat’s – but look at the above picture, please. Look at him. Just look at him. The c*nt. The source of my ire? Well, [...]

We’re now on iTunes
Well it’s taken far too long hasn’t it. How long have we been up? Just over a month? And I’ve only just got round to submitting a simple XML to those tie-dyed bespectacled long-hairs at Apple so you can finally download every audio tidbit in the roomyverse.

Barrowman Update
Following on from my suggestion that John Barrowman should be the next President of the United States in 2016, last week saw the release of his new single (oh heavens be praised!) Entitled ‘What About Us’, and written by Gary Barlow as iffy solo album filler rather than Take That splendiferous anthem, it’s on such heavy Radio 2 rotation that it’s beginning [...]

Ode to Will
If you’ve listened to the Quantum of Solace Podgasm you may have somehow got the idea that i’m rather fond of Will Young.

Why I love Adam Buxton
It’s been doing the rounds all week, but If you haven’t got round to it yet, check out this reworking of Obama’s victory speech by Adam Buxton. It’s a hoot ‘n a half (or, if that’s raising expectations too high, at least half a hoot)

BRITANNIA DIE!
It’s not often that I detest something on sight. Perhaps detestation is insufficiently venemous a term. Better to say that my stomach wall was almost perforated by the geyser of bile that erupted when I walked past this particular poster. I guess it took me by surprise because I haven’t seen such a rapaciously conceited marketing eyesore since the heady days of Cirque du [...]

BARACK OBAMA
Barack Obama – in case you’re currently groping through an empty hospital in some Day of The Triffids parallel universe – has just become the next President of The United States (if you’re reading this some weeks later and he’s since been popped in the back of the head by a posse of psycho-cracker triple K nutjobs, [...]
