When it comes to taking awesome photographs, timing is everything. It can make the difference between a dud shot and a money shot. Here are some great examples of photos taken at just the moment.
First up, a man and his camel. Now I realize the guy was only trying to mount the camel, but it [...]

Every great song deserves a great music video, and that principle definitely applies to Beyonce’s Single Ladies. Now, this may seem a little controversial, and don’t get me wrong, her video is good… just not great.
Fortunately, thanks to the power of YouTube, an alternative film clip has sprung up. This little puppy is guaranteed to [...]

For many years now it has been assumed that Karl Stefanovic, co-host of Channel Nines early morning Today program, is a robot.
In fact, many people believe that Stefanovic is actually C3P0, a human-cyborg relations droid constructed in Queensland, and the first Australian droid of its kind. This was confirmed on Wikipedia (so it must [...]

Here is the must see movie of the decade, Midgets vs. Mascots. The preview alone is worth the price of admission. If you’re easily offended, maybe you should probably give it a wide berth.
Midgets vs. Mascots is described as a mockumentary that follows a contest between midgets and mascots, each group fighting for their share [...]

As a bloke, you may occasionally find it difficult to understand what the woman in your life is thinking. You may find it difficult to pick up on some of the subtle signs and signals she’s putting out there. Sometimes it’s hard to know when she’s really pissed off at you.
If you need some help [...]

Here are some pretty cool, for sci-fi geeks anyway, print ads produced by New Zealand advertising agency DDB New Zealand, to promote the screening of Aliens vs. Predator when it was on SKY TV. As a massive Predator, and Alien, fan boy, I love this stuff. My personal favorite is Alien vs. Predator totem tennis. [...]

If you had to describe the TV show Flight of the Conchords in one word, what would it be? I’m going to have to go with “quirky”. Even though I hate that word, it’s the first one that pops into my tiny under developed brain.
If you’ve never heard of the show before, allow wikipedia to [...]

Generally I find musicals lame, with the odd exception. What I find even worse is the song and dance shenanigans at the Oscars. It makes me cringe to the point where I feel a shiver run up the back of my spine.

Do you want to know what’s awesome? When someone in an open plan office (eg. no walls!) decides to hold a conference call on a speaker phone and then proceeds to have a conversation about how it’s nice that we are getting some rain. Here’s the tip, everyone else in your office will love listening [...]

The motivational poster has served as the template for many a funny ‘fwd’ email. Case in point, one of my personal favorites, the motivational penguin. Ohhh… all this motivation stuff has me thinking of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs… saucy…
I digress. I received a few more ‘motivational poster’ themed pictures in my inbox today. I decided [...]
