Why is Queen of the Nerds disgruntled? She resents the Queen of the Nerds label and has requested a more accurate/appropriate pseudonym. She argues that Queen of the Nerds is a “completely inaccurate pseudonym”, as it “would imply that I [she] am [is] the ultimate nerd of the household”. Reading between the lines, it appears [...]

Last night, jamming on the guitar, eyes closed almost felt famous. Almost. I opened my eyes again, and I was still in my frickin bedroom. Not cool, not cool at all. I came up with a solution. I need to get a rock stars eye view of what it looks like to be standing in [...]

Yesterday, Naomi Robson announced that she was resigning from her post as anchor of Today Tonight. It was a dark day for entertainment and television. It’s been a big year for Naomi Robson. There was the cannibal story and her deportation from Papua. Allegations of her demands for a special hair and make up van [...]

Do people often tell you that your living in a fantasy land? If the answer is yes, then Fantasy Football is probably for you. By football, I’m not talking Aussie rules.

The big sports news in the past week or so has been Ian Thorpe’s retirement from swimming. Undoubtedly one of the greatest swimmers and sportsmen Australia has produced, the Thorpedo dominating his sport, breaking world records and winning gold medals.

There’s a company selling aliens, well test tubes holding white powder that grows into an alien.

I grew a year older on the weekend. Scary stuff, I’m concerned that it may mean I need to grow up. I’m hoping it doesn’t need to come to that though. It’s common knowledge that my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard. And they’re like, it’s better than yours, damn right it’s better [...]

Well maybe don’t trade in the Xbox quite yet, but those classic old Nintendo games we all grew up with (at least I know people that grew up with them!) can be played online now for free! If you want to have a crack at some old school Super Mario Brothers, check out excessively.net and [...]

This debate has been raging for a good 2 minutes now. I know who my money is on… but I better try and keep this as unbiased as possible. Of the two hot Cylons from Battlestar Galactica, who is hotter, Cylon Sharon (Grace Park), or Cylon No.6 (Tricia Helfer)? Although I’m interested in the opinions [...]

I have a crap voice, I can’t sing, and have trouble reading from scripts. Clearly a career as a voice over artist is out of my reach. If you do not suffer from any of my afflictions however, then the internet is making it easier to give voice over work a try. There’s a website [...]

This one is courtesy of Bean Bag Boy, probably the only person more disturbed than me. I knew I shouldn’t have let the little guy watch the second series of Wild Boyz on the weekend. We all know whales are pretty big so none of what you see here should be of any surprise to [...]
