I decided I wasn’t going to write this post until the entire hullabaloo died down and I could let my own thoughts on the matter solidify without the influence of the articles I’d been reading on the subject as well as the great Fake News wank of 2010. I know everyone’s thrown in their two cents and it often got messy, especially with the Jezebel ( Read more... )

Recently Jezebel.com discussed the lack of women on The Daily Show. I love the show but there are too few women on it, at least count there was Samantha Bee, occasional correspondent Kristin Schaal and the new (not so funny) correspondent Olivia Munn (I am not dragging up that wank again, honestly!) As I briefly, not so eloquently said in my 100 ( Read more... )

Semester two is over.

Seriously. Not counting exams, this is my 2nd year of university over. Holy christ, where did it all go? I finished my 4 frakking essays in 3 frakking weeks and now I'm home for a week or so with the comfy recliner chair, the big bloody TV and my lovely family who are still driving me nuts but I don't care. The essays went from ( Read more... )

The TV Baftas just finished and in case you missed them, here are the winners ( Read more... )

Will sketch for the first five people who comment with their request.
The catch is that you must put this up in your journal as well.
If you absolutely do not draw, write something, etc.

Hurray for Restoration work! Right now in Englidh literature we are studying the period of the restoration and it's subsequant literature. Basically, after the return of the monarchy, Charles II used the theatre as a sort of propaganda to show how he was much better than Cromwell and he let women on stage for the first time so things inevitably got ( Read more... )

Sadly Benjamin Button was sold out tonight so I went to see Frost/Nixon again (I was too embarassed to go and see Bolt on my own) and loved it as much as I did the first time. Michael Sheen = Phwoar! Since I'm now in need of a few favourite actor, I have a feeling this guy's going to fill the role. Bring on The Damned United (which I saw a trailer ( Read more... )

I have a test this Friday in Gaelic and I am in the midst of revising. But I've suddenly found it hard to revise without some sort of noise in the background, preferrably a comedy. Sadly the majority of QI has been removed from YouTube (damn you copyright infrigement laws) and almost all of Mock the Week as well, so I've mostly been binging on ( Read more... )

(1) List 16 celebrities you would have sex with without even asking questions.
(2) Put all of them in order of your lust for them.
(3) Say which movie/show/thing it was that hooked you.
(4) Supply photos.

The new year is almost upon us and I'll be glad to see the back of it. It's been a very stressful, heartbreaking, annoying, fearful and bloody long 12 months. It was destined to be a tough year from day one! I think the nadir of the year was definately my grandad's illness but that can all be shoved aside because he is alive, on the path to full ( Read more... )
