Some offices go on team-building weekends to the Lakes where you have to go camping in a tent with Mike from accounts who’s the most boring blob of flesh in the world. Others go for post-work drinks to unwind.
Here we have an example of another stress-busting technique. And see what happens when you try and change things? People kick off. Trade unions aren’t there for fun, you know, workers have rights!
We have a snapshot of the future here. First, humans will become obsolete in the workplace as robots materialize as a far cheaper, more efficient option. Machines don’t need a fag break or have to go on facebook. They don’t bicker and whine. It just makes sense.
Then, creative things will be taken over. You won’t get writers or musicians or poets – lyrics and prose will be created from a meticulous word generating machine and pumped methodically from speakers. So. You better get used to this. Listen up and enjoy, cos the Bowies and the Pete Dohertys of this world are to destined to be replaced by nuts and bolts.

No matter how bad a day or life you’re having, this video is sure to turn things around. Like a puppy, or someone tripping up in front of you, it’s nature’s visual Prozac. Try as you might, you simply cannnot help but be tickled by the sight of dozens of babies pulling the ’sour lemon face’.
I love how some of them think they have it covered, like, “What, sour? This is fine. This isn’t sour, this is…’ Only for them to suddenly recoil in a juddering fit. It’s a knee-jerk reaction that no-one can tame. Hang on, what’s that, did I hear someone say “Child cruelty”? Nonsense. They don’t HAVE to eat the fruit, do they?
You ever get the feeling that games designers are having a laugh at our expense, i mean, it must take days, if not weeks to program and design a game like this – What the HELL were they thinking?
This is ONE very weird little game, but strangely, highly addictive and rather pleasant to play! Drive the gay bus to the gay bar & ram as many sailors as you can along the way – Yep, a gay-bashing killing fest EXTREME! Woo Hoo !
Ok, so the new Star Wars films were no where near as good as the original ones. I know that, you know that, and George Lucas – if you gave him a few glasses of wine – would admit that as well. Despite them not being as legendary, there’s something all Star Wars films have in common. There are a lot of characters, and they can get fairly complicated what with all those planet names and politics.
This is a novel way to keep things informative, fun, and fresh. By integrating a choral Queen classic with the well-known franchise you have a decidedly high-pitched re-cap of the recent films. And what’s more, you can listen to this, and get straight to watching episodes 4-6 and enjoy some real quality films.
It takes some balls (no pun intended) to do this. It takes even more balls to do this when you’re a set and a game down. I guess being a Romanian tennis fan is more thrilling than being a British tennis fan. No amount of ‘Come on Tim’ could ever make Henman win a match. He was British – forever condemned to quarters and semis. I think we prefer failure as a nation, that way we can grumble and moan more.
But had he done things like this, just maybe we would have more fond memories of good old Tim. He was a bit bland wasn’t he? I salute you, Hanescu. I like the philosophy that, whatever the score, sport should be an exciting thing. I bet Llodra doesn’t have the same enthusiasm.
It’s not often you see the sight of another car flying over your head and landing directly in front of you. You’re not exactly going to see it in rush hour are you? Well I doubt even in this crazy hobby you get to see such a spectacle.
So savour it. I guess it’s the best way of overtaking – the direct route. Takes some skill… and even more balls. Maybe the Stig has quickly found something else to do with his time
