Today brought a multi-coloured shit-storm in the form of an article written on 2oceansvibe to do with the possibly confusing music video made by SA band The Parlotones. We suggested the band had gone too far in aligning themselves with another country, what with the song name being “Come Back As Heroes,” and the video […]
Product endorsements and commercialisation aside; aligning yourself with another nation and singing for their victory in a tournament which is being held on your home soil (a tournament in which your own country is competing), may well be the final straw for Parlotones fans. “Aligning” might be a bit tame.

Ever since Robert Downey Jnr gave us a better way to live in Iron Man, people have been popping chubbies (present company included) at the thought of having interactive computing interfaces like the iPad on almost every glossy surface of their abode.

If you, like me, are something of an amateur (read: ignorant) economist, then you’ve probably wondered on occasion why gold is so friggin expensive. Part of the answer is definitely due to the fact that mining houses share their office space with Satan and his cronies.
People think I’m against ALL cyclists. Not true. It’s just the dicks I don’t enjoy. The guys who wear their helmets whilst dining at the table next to me.
