I know I’ve already made a post about long-lost TV classics from my childhood, but the list would be incomplete without at least mentioning The Muppet Show…

Woza Wimpy
I landed up at a Wimpy last weekend- Wimpy breakfasts make my heart happy (you’d probably imagine that they would make my stomach happy, but trust me, it’s my heart). Wimpy coffee also makes my heart happy. Collectable items that I have very little use for make my heart… you guessed it, happy! So it [...]

My Precious Suit
So here I sit, shoes shined, tie tied and sports jacket sported, in celebration of a favourite holiday: International Suit-Up Day. I’m not a huge fan of How I Met Your Mother – I’ve seen a few episodes and found them pretty chortle-worthy but it seems too much to me like Friends for a new [...]

Job Seeker
Dear Readers,
I Would like to know if anyone knows of a job opening for me. I have a degree in Information Science and I am handy with a hammer. I would like to add that in my previous job I did very little and was paid disproportionately. I wouldn’t mind even getting no credit for [...]

Paws for Thought
I first encountered this video on an episode of Conan O’Brien. And it doesn’t seem to matter how many times I watch it or what mood I am in: it leaves me in hysterics each and every time. I just watched it a minute ago, in fact, with similar results. I’m not sure why someone [...]

10 Dating Tips That Will Change Your Life
I am friends with a large number of- now, I’m not sure how to phrase this without getting myself into trouble- clever boys. You know, boys who wear glasses and enter science expos and debating competitions. Boys who start blogs and who write for magazines. Boys who talk about politics and help me with the [...]

The good ol’ days
I recently had the rather random opportunity to watch an episode of Pinky and the Brain and it immediately sucked me back into my childhood days of watching KTV at my grandparents’ house after school. It also made me think about the way that my grandfather used to smother eggs in a thick layer of [...]

Confessions of a Closet Patriot
Ok, that’s it, I am sick and tired of constantly complaining about life on this blog. I have a confession to make and this is very difficult for me to say (deep breath) : I am a complete sucker for patriotism. I actually get tears in my eyes every time I hear the national anthem [...]

Tomorrow… it’s only a day away
Considering I have missed 4 out of the last 5 deadlines that I have had for this blog, I got to thinking about procrastination and why it’s so common. And I’ve figured out the answer: I will tell you what it is tomorrow.**
**Yes, I am aware that this joke is weak, but I am tired and I don’t [...]

Think twice before registering your domain name!
Just as with Rowan Atkinson’s infamous roll-call routine (in his sketch for stage called Smut) this post is riddled with schoolboy sexual innuendo and lavatorial humour. What could be funnier though? Whether an honest oversight or terribly enduring and public Freudian slip, these domain name may not always read as the owners would have originally intended…
