Tim from Bristol: If you were to come into power, how would your party change a broken light bulb? Nick: We'd ensure that the people have the power to replace light bulbs when they break and also see to it that replacement light bulbs are much more energy-efficient and long-lasting. Gordon: While we could replace a light bulb, the reality is that no light bulb is broken. Light bulbs today

Okay, so I've made the point before that my job is pretty sweet. However, I think I've found an even better job. To make sure LA talent scouts don't get caught in a "booby trap," potential lassies will have to undergo a Hollywood-style jiggle-your-jugs test and jog for judges. If there's nothing moving from the waist up, they're saying, it's a dead giveaway that you're not all flesh and

Doctor Who comes back on April 3rd. Words cannot really say how excited I am about this. New Doctor, New Companion, hell, a nice new lick of paint for the TARDIS inside and out, and Steven Moffatt taking over as the show-runner. It's going to be a damn good season, and it can't come soon enough. Anyway, time for the trailer:

So there's this website called ChatRoulette. It's a neat little site which takes random people all over the internet with webcams and matches them up to talk, or more commonly, demand that each other show them various body parts. Bringing together all the wonderful things from the internet in one horrifying cauldron. So, obviously there's a compilation site with all the best shots, hilarious

*Ripped directly from my notepad when I got in today* This is the first time I've been sober in about 3 days now. I'm writing this down old school style, on a notepad that I brought with me in a flight of madness. This will go up in the blog later, but for now le me trace my steps to find out how I got here.

They didn't do this much work on The IT Crowd. Today was one of the most labour intensive days I think I've had. Spent the whole morning ripping apart a pair of desks, and creating new work set-ups for two new traders who, I'm certain, will immediately decide that they don't like where they've been set up and demand to be moved. I've never seen a more horrifying collection of tangled wires and

So, the synopsis for the new season of Doctor Who got leaked today: A new era of Doctor Who begins in Spring 2010. This latest series of the BBC's flagship drama programme sees Matt Smith's debut as the new, Eleventh incarnation of the famous Time Lord alongside a new travelling companion, the enigmatic Amy Pond (Karen Gillan). Together they explore 16th century Venice, France during the 1890s

February the 8th. A date which will live in infamy. I know, I know, you're racking your brains, or even googling or wiki'ing to find out what's so damn important about this date. Well, there are a few things, like the execution of Mary, Queen of Scots, or the first radio in the White House, or the opening of the NASDAQ for the very first time, or even, sadly, the last night-time launch of the

I think I'm going to start writing again. I've been fermenting an idea I reckon I could expand into a novel for almost half a year now, and had a look back at the notes I first scribbled down on 18/05/2009, and I think I'm ready to start pulling some actual writing out of this. How well it will go is another matter. As James was so kind to point out, I'm actually no longer living my life as one

So, yesterday was my first day of gainful employment. I think it hit me, as I was commuting(!) in with all the other young business professionals, I'm one of those people. It's incredibly surreal. It's been all I.D passes and lunch hours (yeah, that's right James, I get an hour. Suck it down!)

I've got 1979 by The Smashing Pumpkins stuck in my head, and it will not go away. I've resorted to downloading it, but playing it over and over again is not working anymore. As a result, I think I'm going mildly insane.

It's always great when you catch a film that you've heard almost nothing about, and it's really good. Things like Iron Man 2, yeah I'm excited, but if pushed, I could give you a pretty good plot outline and a breakdown of every key scene. It doesn't tarnish the enjoyment of the film, but it does mean I'll sit in the theatre going 'right, so I still haven't seen that bit from the trailer, so

So, because I've got my finger on the pulse of popular culture I got GTA IV over Christmas, and finished it a week ago. And it's been stuck in my head for a while, more than any game where you can murder prostitutes should have any right to.I think that it's the first time that I've ever been properly emotionally connected to a video game character, which is a big step. I mean, normally, you're

It's all very artsy and stuff, cool shots of architecture and whatnot.Then, of course, you see this making of video and realise the entire bloody thing is CGI. I mean, that's just terrifyingly impressive there. I mean, I was impressed by Avatar and District 9, but this is just amazing.Edit: link to the original video file. 904MB for 12 mins of video. I'm downloading it and using it as a desktop.

Have you heard of a band called Steel Panther? They are truly the greatest band. This is because they take all the best attributes of 80's bands, the hilarious hair, the indulgent guitar solos, the overly emotional sweet songs that are actually totally about sex, and then turns them all the way up to eleven.For example, in the song Community Property, we start with this sappy acoustic guitar, and

Today was a big day. I woke up at regular people time, went to London in an actual suit, and got myself one of those real person jobs. It's all very exciting. And terrifying, naturally. So, starting February 1st, I'm gonna be the guy who you call when your computer isn't working.

Firstly, sorry for the lack of update on Friday. The Natives in America have been showing extreme tenacity, and the Spanish and French are attempting to punish me back in the Old World as well. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that Empire: Total War is absolutely fantastic nerd fuel, a glorious continuation of the Total War series and the most entertaining game that I've ever played where you

Maybe around day 100 or something deeply significant like that. Oh yes, that'll do nicely.Anyway, apologies for my unforgivable lapse once again, but I was back home over the weekend, and then stayed there until, well, Wednesday morning, so I was slightly cut off from the ol' internet as well as being drunk a bit far too often with Matt.So, I finally touched down back at university after a

So, I might have mentioned before that I wasn't really that into the new Skins. The first couple of episodes didn't grab me and I just stopped watching after that. This will be important later, I swear.Right, last night I was over at the neighbours, getting dinner made for me and all sorts. I'm honestly not sure why this happened, given that I am a terrible person and generally fearful of human

(Geeky post up ahead. Seriously. Go outside and play football or something.)One of the major problems with comics seems to be this massive amount of history hanging over all of the characters. If you look at something like DC, which has near 70+ years of back story to it, and has actually rebooted their own history more than a couple of times, then there's just a little bit to the characters

Transmetropolitan is maybe one of the more awesome comics that I've ever read.Now, a matter of perspective here. I'm a huge dork, but up until recently I'd kept it confined to movies, TV, books, the internet...okay, what I'm actually saying is that I do most of the regular nerdy stuff apart from read comic books. Or tabletop gaming. Or, especially, LARPing. Because holy fuck those guys are

So yeah, rough couple of nights with not much sleep, drinking too much and just generally feeling like hell. But, at the end of all of that, I find myself sitting here, only two pieces of work before the end of university (One essay and an exam! Holy shit!) and nothing much to do for a few weeks until I enter my various panicky states regarding those particular things.This now means I'm finding

So, firstly, I had a fucking awesome time in Sheffield. I'll heartily recommend their union to anyone (Seriously it is called the Octogon, OMGEE that is the coolest thing EVAR), and Carols flatmates and friends were all very lovely to me and Mike while we were up there. Plus Caroline made us epic Bacon sandwiches in the morning, and it was fucking glorious.Secondly, yeah, I got my essay done. It

There probably won't be an update tomorrow, as I'm going to Sheffield tomorrow morning, and I've got an assessed discussion at 9am that morning too. And I'm going to the silent disco tonight, which will be most pleasant and awesome, but I'm concerned that a bit too much drinking might take place. So, I'll obviously be bringing to bear my considerable willpower to avoid drinking.Oooh, I'll also be

So, continuing on from yesterdays review of Incredibad, the début album from the Lonely Island dudes, here is the second half of the album.Like a BossThis is a fucking great song. The same escalation as Boombox, but taken even further. Samberg absolutely tears this up, and it rocks.We Like SportzA sequel to Just 2 Guyz?

So, the debut album from The Lonely Island dudes came out a couple days ago, and I've been listening it to it near continuously since then. I mean, I've mentioned before about how cool it is to see these dudes make it big, especially after seeing them start out from something like this. Anyway, now I've listened the absolute crap out of this album, I thought I'd go through and review that shit.

My only comment on Valentine's Day: Steak is great, and beer is great. Steak fried in beer though? That right there is fucking awesome.Okay, so remember the other day when I was talking about movie trilogies and the fact that the third one always seems to suck? Well, I'm pretty sure that Lord of the Rings is the exception. This might have something to do with the production process, which is

I mean, really, is there a worse holiday? It's miserable for single people. It's expensive for couples. It's absolutely sickening for everyone involved, and it's abominable that it exists. However, it has provided me with a great excuse to get terrifyingly and completely steamingly drunk tomorrow. I'm meeting up with James and Chris at about three, and we're going to start drinking and never stop

Firstly, if you're one of those soulless people who doesn't enjoy, nay, love the Back to the Future movies, then it's probably best that you stop reading now. Honestly, we're going to get deeply nerdy about all three of the films, and if you're not a fan, then you'd best move on. There's nothing for you here.So, the third film in the trilogy. It always gets a lot of stick, which I think is sort

Right, I don't know what happened, but somehow I managed to miss Crank. I only just finished watching it, and my holy lord it is like totally the best film ever.Well, no, that's not true. It's not a thinking movie. It's not going to challenge your perceptions, or alter your mind. But holy shit, this film kicks ass in a very, very special way. We're talking Shoot 'Em Up levels of kick-assery.

So, yeah, the last time I updated was Wednesday the 4th. Not exactly great for my weekly updating thing. Anyway, I'm sorry and all that. I got into kind of a funk over Thursday and Friday, but had my spirits lifted by a most excellent weekend. I don't want to go into too many details, but lets just say that both Beer and Back to the Future figured heavily in it. It was good.So, Saturday was

Firstly, an apology for James' incomprehensible gibbering yesterday. I don't even know what the hell that was, but it does offer a chilling reminder as to why I should never leave James unsupervised with my computer. Not only did he leave a collection of even more aimless ramblings than I normally do, but he also decided to download gay pornography onto my computer. Because he's a lovely human

This is courtesy of James' Blog. I am..well, grateful isn't exactly the right word for it...So then, I'm pretty drunk right now, but not drunk enough to not kill zombies. Man I love Left 4 Dead, simple, unchallenging zombie killing at its finest.I do need to walk home though, gay.So apparently I need to pad out this post, I think its literary genius quite frankly, But apparently its not.

Okay, so I might be moving even further past the dork horizon. I mean, I'm already pretty far gone, in that when people ask me if I've seen the latest ubuntu release, I don't respond that "I'm not that into Pokemon"After all, I built my own computer! (Well, stood around and made knowing comments while Matt wired together my motherboard) That aside, I know what the hell I'm doing in there now. I

Man, that was a pretty fucking awesome night.It started with several beers and good pizza with James, while we watched Taken, which I must point out right now is a fucking ball-flatteningly awesome film. The moral might only be "Don't kidnap Liam Neesons's daughter, because he will royally fuck up you and anyone else involved, but it's still a lesson I think we can all take to heart.So, many

So, further evidence that I'm a horrifyingly sad bastard, I spent much of my morning watching Mean Girls. There's something wrong with me, I'm sure. Also, what went wrong with Lindsay Lohan? Seriously, she was all sorts of awesome in Mean Girls, and then she just kinda stopped doing anything remotely good. Although, she was superbly outshone by Lizzy Caplin, who I will make my wife one day. My

I'd like to take a moment to philosophise about drinking, and why it's fucking awesome. Drinking offers clarity of purpose. Maybe not clarity of mind, and certainly not clarity of body movement, but I can certainly attest that I've always done my clearest and most direct thinking when I'm completely fucking battered.When you're sober (or at least when I'm sober. That's right, I'm assuming that

So I've been dicking around with all the import notes settings on Facebook, and I think the entire thing is just completely borked. There's no real way for me to import blog entries as notes without it cutting off at some arbitrary point, unless I feel like doing it manually each time I update. And man, that is another level of just sheer, I cannot be arsed to do that.Also, it would detract from

I know I was at a house party last night. There's no beer in my fridge, and I've got new pizza boxes and takeaway menus in my room. I also woke up with an open and completely undrunk can of coke next to my bed. That proved useful in getting up this morning.Oh yeah, so I found this on youtube.

Good drunken evening tonight. Came straight from campus to town, where I met up with Sarah Katie and Sam, and we drank quite a lot.Did you know that they do Double Jaeger Bombs in Squares for £3.75? My mind is still fucking blown over that. I need to go there before every film I watch. Apart from that, we also had many different cocktails of many different colours, and it was wonderful.Oh, and

I mean, I'm not sure I've covered this enough. I've been re-watching it through from the beginning, and it's still capable of constantly rocking my socks. I think the main reason why is that I've been burned so many times before by other sci-fi shows.The big thing as a kid for me was stuff like Stargate and Voyager, and the problem with these shows is that that had a very pronounced tendency to

I am going to list them in reverse order, because that's just how I roll. And also I'm planning on getting all gay and political at the end, so I'd rather save that. So.I saw Twilight today with Kate and Emily. I'd been wary about seeing this because it looked, to put it bluntly, fucking terrifyingly bad. And man, I was not disappointed. This is a new triumph in awful cinema. I mean, there were

So, have you guys heard about Microsoft Songsmith? It's the most insane and weird thing I've come across, today at least.The original idea is that you sing into this program, and it then automatically generates music that matches your vocals, creating something lovely and beautiful, as illustrated by this lovely video.(By the way, make sure you watch the whole movie.

Man, I was different kinds of drunk last night. And I've no idea what that rambling about Spaced being my desktop background was.Though I do have clear memories of trying to minimise it and being unable to, and my desktop icons being in the way of Simon Peggs face. So I don't know.Anyway, I'm getting quite excited because this weekend sees the relaunch of pretty much all of the shows that I watch

So, the thing is, I'm drunk and posting my very second entry of this year in a terribly, drunken, state.Spaced is on in the most unconventional way possible and it's kicking arse.Argh you fucking bastard.I don't know how I managed to get the entire first season od spaced t opalay as my desktop baackgound but I',m excited avbout it.

...a day later than I promised, but after having about 50 million drunken conversations about Christmas and New Year which were essentially that "yeah, mine was pretty okay. Yours? Okay, yeah? Okay then." I figured that no-one really wants to read me trying to stretch out Christmas and New Years over 250 words. I mean, it was pretty good, yeah, but not particularly exciting.With two

So, I'm coming back up to uni this Saturday. I won't be restarting updates then, as I'll probably be busy with the minutiae of unpacking, then getting drunk and explaining in slurred phrases that I deeply love everyone at uni, before falling over in the bathroom and passing into blissful unconciousness.However, the plan is, when I get up on Sunday, after clearing the beer bottles from my desk,

So, damn. That was a good couple of days.I was still awake Thursday morning, having spent the preceding 24 hours solidly writing up two essays for politics and animation. Finally met up with James on campus at around twelve, and spent about an hour getting them both printed off and handed in. I also laughed at Karine and Scott, who had also both been up all night, but in the library. Scott was

Well...So here we are! I have travelled today for Hutton to Norwich in order to celebrate young Anderson's 21st...So far it has been highly enjoyable. I think it may just be the amount of beers consumed (18 bottles) or the fact it has been too long since our last outing!What random shite should I write about???It's a possibility that the one true reason I am here is to keep Jimmy in a non-stop

This right here pretty much sums up why I could never live in America. I can visit, sure, and I'll always have a great love for the country I was born in. But holy fuck, an article in The Wall Street Journal dealing with the "controversy" that Obama uses a Zune instead of an iPod?Yeah, fuck that shit.And the fact that someone in the Obama camp had to release a statement to placate the rabid Apple

Firstly, holy fucking shit yes! Man, this Christmas, TV is going to rock. We've got new Doctor Who, new Wallace & Gromit, and now new Shooting Stars. I'm not moving from the front of my telly this year.Secondly, have I mentioned before how essay writing really sucks? It's even worse when you've just finished one, because you're suddenly confronted by this expanse of blank page, and you've got to

So, I've "finished" one of my essays now, with a mere 4500 words to write by Wednesday. I've got the sneaking suspicion that I might overrun that slightly. I will almost certainly fall asleep in the Christmas screening as well, because if I haven't finished my essay by then, I'll certainly have stayed up all night before working on it just to try to do so anyway.Anyway, I've been spending an

I've had a number of people nag me to check out Vitamin String Quartet now, so I've been doing that this evening. I've got to say, it was time well spent. (Youtube them, they are awesome.)Vitamin String Quartet is the collective name for a group of tribute albums which reinterpret alternative rock by playing it in a string quartet. It's fucking awesome. I always really enjoyed it when rock took

So, this is kind of weird. James was good enough to talk about it already however, so go to his place.Anyway, me and him have decided that we're going to get our shit organised for this final week of term. We both have two essays due for Thursday 11th, which is happily the day before my birthday, and the same day that my actual birthday celebrations begin. So, the pact was that we'd both get our

You know what the worst thing about Wikipedia is?(There are a great many things, actually. The fact that anyone can edit it, the lack of citation for much of it, the insanely anal habits of the administrators, the schizophrenic nature of their relationship with pop culture and the bizarre ways in which they format templates, seemingly arbitrarily. Anyway.)The worst thing is that you can jump onto

So, yesterday we discussed the gay and terrible Vampires from Twilight. Well, today, we'll be talking about the much more awesome kind of vampire as found in True Blood.Now, just as a completely random aside, I've been burned by HBO before. They created Rome, one of the most asskicking and fucking awesome shows ever, with some of the best historical drama combined with some hardcore swearing and

I first heard about Twilight this summer. My sister and cousin were reading these books which I surmised were about Vampires and stuff. However, that wasn't as important as Edward. Apparently he's the sort of main character in this series of books, and the writing is mainly centred around how dreamy he is. I didn't really care at the time, to be honest. I was more concerned with getting drunk

So, it appears a certain Mr Turner has taken on himself to dare criticize the shining beacon of perfection that is this blog.Well, that's fine. After all, I welcome attacks on my opinions. Because my opinions are unique in that they are always, 100% correct. This is true. Because I said so. And, as we've discussed, I am always, always right.James claims somehow that The Cable Guy is a bad film.

So, yeah, I felt incredibly healthy this morning. Actually, I think I was still drunk. The hangover took about three hours to kick in, so I'm now dealing with that.Here's what I remember from last night:Buying and downing a JD and coke in about 10 seconds to get to the screen quickly.Leaving the theatre about five minutes after that to buy some beer.Pierce Brosnan is a man who I have a great deal

Yes, I'm aware that I've done one of these before. Let me explain something first.I have a tendency to get, just maybe a bit hyperbolic about movies or TV that I like. Actually, that's not strictly true. I get a bit over the top when describing any single piece of media, good or bad. This is not a bad thing, it just tends to mislead people when I tell them something is fantastic. However, when I

Whoa, wide-screen youtube! Thank god too, otherwise we wouldn't be able to enjoy things like this.Actually, maybe that isn't the best example. Although it's still quite cool. (wide-screen youtube, that is, not the really fat kid.)Anyway.I felt a little fried Monday morning, having stayed up all night to write an essay.

- Has anyone ever noticed that Brad Bird seems to have a serious problem with redheads? Seriously, the villain in both The Iron Giant and The Incredibles is a ginger. I mean, Jesus, I think Brad has a serious hang-up on this.- Man, The Iron Giant is totally about not fucking with the communists.

So, this Waltz with Bashir film? It looks pretty fucking awesome to me. Very cool animation style, and nice to see some more stuff coming from the middle east nowadays. As Kate is at pains to tell me, everyone needs to be doing her Israeli-Palestinian politics module, and while I don't think that's entirely practical, I certainly think that more cultural things emerging from the region is a great

Man, I'm looking forward to The Office tomorrow. So many good things are coming. The wedding is getting closer, and Michael is pushing getting fired. Personally, I'm hoping they spend some time developing the Andy/Oscar relationship that was being pushed in last weeks episode. Exciting stuff.As for what else has been going on this week in TV, Heroes was pretty rock and roll, although I'm glad

I did not feel healthy this morning. Not at all. A great deal of beer combined with a great deal of Purple People Eaters did not do nice things to me, especially when I'm out with Callum, who shows a similar lack of restraint in terms of his drinking.So, I arise in the morning wearing a hat that doesn't belong to me, and feeling like I wanted to die. It was pleasant. However, I've discovered that

So, I play this game called Frets on Fire. It's a free ware version of Guitar Hero for your PC, which is a nice way of saying that I'm totally stealing Guitar Hero. Anyway, it's exceptionally fun stuff, especially given the fact that every song that's been in Rock Band, and every Guitar Hero game is on there. And really, the only thing that's lacking is the whammy bar, which could be resolved if

I did not have a productive weekend at all.Admittedly, I did go out for a rather good night on Saturday for Terri's birthday, although the exact details are somewhat fuzzy given the copious amounts of booze that I consumed. I do remember berating Emily at length for taking so long to get ready, whhile playing some good Frets on Fire with Callum, finally leaving, and then on arriving at Terri's,

Just finished watching Casino Royale with Emily, and I have to say, I think I do prefer this to Quantum of Solace. It helps, of course, that I can say Casino Royale without thinking that it's a fucking retarded title and I hate it. I mean, Jesus, really? The fucking Quantum of fucking Solace?Shit makes no sense.If anything, I think that watching Solace actually improves watching Casino. It sorta

Seriously, what's up with that? The last two entries have been in all caps. That is not cruise control for cool, no matter what anyone says.So, anyway, I think I'm actually gay now. I spent last night watching Jeffrey, a charming drama/comedy about gay men in New York. It was, um, unusual. There were bizarre breaks of the forth wall, and Scrubs-esque fantasy sequences. It also had that charming

HOLY SHIT EVIL SPACE ZOMBIESI realised that I've been playing this game obsessively for the last week or so now, and I still haven't managed to eloquently state why exactly I really love this game. So, what I'm going to do is ramble a bit about it, and hopefully I'll be able to distil what eactly about this game sets it aside from everything else vying for my attention at the moment.Firstly, it's

Wasn't fantastic, to be honest. I mean, it was okay, but it's always going to be hard to pull off a decent pub crawl in Norwich where we have about three decent cheap pubs, and the crawl involves us visiting none of them. Still, I did manage to sell my T-Shirt for more than I paid for it, which is fucking awesome. Truly, being drunk is a wonderful thing, although I'd did mean I was quite cold on

So, you might have noticed that there was no real update yesterday. Or rather, there was, but it was simply titled "Wait" and had a picture of Brad Pitt from Burn After Reading. That is because when I got back to university on Monday, I realised that for some reason, my internet wasn't working.Shit.Okay, so I try doing a System Restore. Despite me not having touched the computer over the weekend,

So,I think we've all agreed that the episode of South Park that came out not even a day after the presidential race was over was facerockingly awesome, right?I mean, not only was it hugely impressive from a technical standpoint, given that they were using direct quotes from speeches delivered twenty hours before the air date, but it also had the clear advantage in that it was absolutely,

Yay!So, yes, on Wednesday I felt a bit unwell. Rumours that I stayed up drinking until 4am and then danced around my room like a mad fool because Obama had crossed the line are completely untrue. But man, that was a fantastic night. Drunk as fuck by the time I got to the LCR, watching the election coverage on the big screen, watching the states roll in and seeing the lead grow higher and higher
