Hypocrisy is a wonderful thing, and thanks to the medium of social networking, it is a much easier thing to achieve. Every time Facebook chisels away at the privacy settings of the least private private network in the world, or Google adds another prohibitively anti privacy line to its terms and conditions, I do the [...]
Finding this a bit of a struggle today, a combination of being bloody tired after staying up too late after Richard Herring, a very early start for my new job, a long train journey, a tiring evening and then watching what was simultaneously the most uplifting and depressing hour of television ever broadcast in Brian [...]
Today I managed to get embroiled in a small Twitter debate, which is rare for me. Usually I am all about the telling of bad jokes, musing on the music I listen to and boring people with links to this blog. I rarely say anything worth disagreeing with, because most of the time I am [...]
Walking through York City Centre is starting to become a slightly depressing thing to do. When I first came to York there were any number of shops that catered to my interest, but nowadays the only remaining shop of remote interest among the sea of fashion boutiques, cafes and other sundry places of zero interest [...]
For the most part I’ve been taking December as a ‘month off the Internet’, save for the occasional pop round the door of Twitter or Facebook to say hello, or tell crap jokes which then get ignored or scorned upon. It’s been refreshing, and I’m not really sure how much I’ve really missed it, but [...]
It has now been six days since my missive to Virgin Media, and I have yet to have a response. I’m going to give them the benefit of the doubt and give them until the end of play tomorrow, and then I am going to call them and tell them to come get their stuff. [...]
As I mentioned before, I am really suffering with writers block at the moment. I have managed to write one thing though, a bit of a missive to Virgin Media for the terminally awful piece of shit they call ‘service.’ I thought I might post it here, just on the off-chance that I can later [...]
Not gonna be much in the way of blogging today, as I am busy writing the first few issues of Blood On The Motorway. I think once it is up and running I want to post new entries at least twice a week, so I am aiming to get a good 12 or so in the [...]
So that was interesting. The whole 7 days experiment was, I think it’s safe to say, pretty successful, although I will admit defeat on the timescale. I forgot how little I am on the computer over the weekend, and the fact that I had an OU assignment due in at the same time. But overall [...]
I must admit that while I do have a facebook account, it’s not something that occupies a huge amount of my time. There are too many irritating things about it. I for one am constantly bombarded with requests to do this or that, or bite another zombie, or take a movie taste challenge. To be [...]
