GAME STORES NOW SELLING FUCKSWARE PRODUCTS
14 Jan 2009 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I don’t know what is more alarming – the fact that the manufacturer would give their product a name that can be so easily mistaken for a swear word (Fuchsware), or the fact that the person writing the sign didn’t double check the spelling. Nonetheless, the result is quite stunning. This, spotted in a local […]

ONE OF THE REASONS I STEER CLEAR OF PICK N PAY
19 Dec 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
This is why I prefer to shop at Woolworths. Organic mature cheddar (my choice) vs. Parmalat Yumchum Ass. I’ve never seen a Yumchum, let alone a Yumchum’s ass. Is it like a Bum Chum? Some, err, ASS for you, Sir? Tsk tsk. Naughty. [thanks zone]

Amazing – remember a couple of years back when Kate Moss was caught snorting cocaine and everyone said that she was finished. There were stacks of labels and high-end beauty products cancelling their deals with her, embarrassed by the association. Hmm, kyk how lyk hy nou! Kate Moss has apparently re-signed her deal with Topshop […]

27 Nov 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I am “between” laptops at the moment and am using an old beast (not too old – running XP) I had locked in a cupboard far far away. Apart from the trip down memory lane, courtesy of the old pictures and videos I found on the hard drive (not very good quality – the size […]

With a fridge filled with Jack Black upon arrival, I realised The Cape Grace were on the right track and should therefore experience even more of the 2oceansvibe.

EX-PATS – TIDY UP YOUR SHIT
21 Nov 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I really wish we had these things in my day in London. My God, we hoarded a lot of crap. I remember carting a life-size Scooby Doo cardboard cut-out from digs to digs, all over London – along with the other crap (larva lamp included). I never did see the irony in boasting that the […]

IT FEELS LIKE IT DID THE FIRST TIME

You will recall the sheer childlike exuberance I expressed the day I bought my Louis Vuitton shades (click here for that story), back in July. then imagine the sheer heartbreak I felt when those very sunglasses BROKE last week on Wednesday.

THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HATH MADE
05 Nov 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
We’ve chatted before about this lovely game the Atlantic Ocean plays from time to time, called “lake-lake.” That’s what it is doing today. It usually comes with an ever-so-thin haze in the sky, causing the ocean to look almost metallic in colour. Camps Bay – todayvery kak Yup, that’s the one. So anyway, […]

PARTNERS AT THE WATERFRONT DO NOT ACCEPT AMERICAN EXPRESS
30 Oct 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I’ve wanted to mention this for quite some time and finally got it done this morning. It is well documented that I use Redken Maneuver as my hair product of choice. It comes in at a reassuringly expensive price and is only available in actual salons. Like the Partners “Hair Design” (hilarious) chain of salons. […]

I was surprised, amused and concerned (all at the same time) when I spotted this TIK test in the local 7-Eleven. Or, “Friendly” Store as it is actually called. It doesn’t make a difference what the place is called; it will never deter from the fact that it has always, and will always, have the […]

FINE
26 Sep 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I was feeling a little peckish the other day. I knew I shouldn’t be having carbs, but I felt noodles could slip through the net without detection. I wasn’t close to Long Street, so Noodlebosch was out of the question. And I didn’t hangover so I couldn’t deal with the dried out nonsense from Knorr, […]

REDISCOVER YOUR INNER SIX PACK FOR SUMMER
16 Sep 2008 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I don’t know. People say I’m looking thin and I must say I did have had a recent cardiovascular explosion in the gym, combined with an incredibly admirable dietary regime. But that stopped three weeks ago and I’m still riding the “God, you’re looking awesome” wave. But, truth be known, The Muse has reacted of […]
