Upon beginning reading this book, I’ll have to admit I wasn’t crazy about it. The book was recommended to me by my cousin, who is constantly reading books that are related to gay men and their lifestyles. I’ll say right off the bat that this isn’t really something that interests me, but my cousin said that [...]

I never understood the ‘If you were stuck on a desert island…’ questions. I mean, who is ever going to get stuck on a desert island? Even more baffling: if you did get stuck on a desert island, why would you know in advance that you were going to be stuck and there and have time [...]

Remember when we reviewed Ellie Goulding’s ‘Lights’ on the day it was released? Well now, I’m going to review Kate Nash’s new album ‘My Best Friend Is You’ the day after it came out. Don’t say we don’t spoil you. If you’re thinking ‘but it’s not Monday!’ don’t worry. I know this. But music reviews aren’t exclusive [...]

Oh look, it’s Monday again! Don’t the weeks fly by? What happened this week? Well, a volcano erupted in Iceland, meaning that shit loads of European flights got cancelled. My favourite thing that happened this week? Nick Clegg became the hero of the Liberal Democrats and made David Cameron look ugly, old-fashioned and an all round [...]

Although there’s not been much feedback about the new format, I’d like to share with you why I personally prefer it. Mostly, I enjoy the excitement of not knowing what is coming up next. The fact that I simply put my iTunes on shuffle in order to come up with songs to review keeps everything spontaneous, [...]

Sympathy for the Parents? Actually, it’s quite a good name. And apparently it’s a Marilyn Manson song. Lovely. For the purposes of this ‘re-naming the episodes’ gig, I’m going to go a little softer on the rock ‘n’ roll vibe and stick with Guns ‘n’ Roses’ ‘Sweet Child O’ Mine’. Why? Because this week’s episode was all [...]

Wahoo! Week 2 of the new layout. Seems no one commented saying they hated it last week, but that might just be because no one actually read the article. So for now, we’ll stick with it. Song #1: Just Like Heaven – The Cure: As you can probably see, my iTunes is filled with a lot of vintage. [...]

I understand that each Grey’s episode is named for a song title, but frankly, sometimes I don’t understand why the writers choose the ones they do. So I’m going to rename each episode every week. This week, we’re calling it ‘Just Another Soldier’. It was all about Owen and his army days. Surgery of the Week. Not a [...]

Okay, Music Monday will be undergoing a slight change as from this week. Instead of reviewing full albums from one band, I’m going to start reviewing 5 individual songs a week, sometimes with a few more details about the band in question. And how will I decide? Obviously, I will be using the iTunes random shuffle technique. [...]

Ah here we are. The last episode of the 2nd generation. Don’t worry though, Skins has already been picked up again for 2 more seasons. Good times. With a new cast. Sad times. Anyway… At the beginning of the end, we see Thomas running. Not sure how this is at all relevant, but apparently it is. Next thing [...]

I bet you’re thinking ‘An Horse’? But that’s incorrect grammar. Oh, just me then? Well I have no idea why they named their band in such an odd way, but they’re pretty quirky and awesome anyways. But does their first full-length studio album match their personalities? Track #1: Camp Out – The band actually performed this song on the [...]

Yeah, yeah another film about gays. Hell, what am I talking about? There are seriously no mainstream movies about gays out there. Except for Brokeback Mountain. This time round, the pretty gay couple is played by the ridiculously funny Jim Carrey and a sweet little blonde guy named Ewan McGregor. I’m guessing you’ve heard of them. Before I [...]
