1. There's an assumption that you sleep with others all the time - Yeah, that's right. We all sleep with each other, 3,000 times a day. There's no need for women. No talking about feelings (with extra witty banter about your boobs), we can just cut straight to it and...

Two years ago, just before Valentines Day, I wrote a list of all the reasons why I think I am still single.
Two years later, I am still single.
But it isn't because of the reasons in that article (reasons such as only purchasing a single pillow for...

Before I start this article, I feel as if I should make a clarification about my parent's jobs.
They were Air Traffic Controllers.

I have got a new job. For the moment, my shifts are at night.
But my shifts aren't during the early night, which now begins at approximately 2.10pm. Bloody winter.
It isn't the early evening shift. If it was, I would spend my mornings watching the Barefoot...

In a post I wrote in February this year I wrote about a Twitter friend who had taken his own life the previous day. I hadn't met him, I didn't know why he had taken his own life... I know it sounds odd to feel a connection with and write...

Oh I don't have a Twitter crush.
I don't even have Twitter. I don't believe in this claptrap at all *throws computer in bin to burn evidence*
And a crush? What me, an individual who only uses Twitter for professional purposes such as negotiating with others about synergy and innovation...

I'm dyslexic. That's right. Richard Branson, Albert Einstein, Henry Winkler and Orlando Bloom and I can all officially high-five each other.
I was diagnosed about three years ago, during the second year of my university study, undetected throughout my entire school life. If you have to place how dyslexic I...

What? The TITANIC SANK 100 YEARS AGO? Bloody hell, I mean there hasn't been any reports of it in any kind on the television, or other forms of news media has there?
THAT'S RIGHT I WAS BEING SARCASTIC. The Titanic disaster has been practically unavoidable. There have been souvenir copies...

SWITCHOVER IS COMING.
Well depending on where you live, it's actually already happened or will happen, or is happening between 2009 and the end of April in 2012, but you know, sod off I don't have time to adjust my writing for your own geographical location. IN FACT YOU KNOW...

You're single. You're female. You've had bad experiences with men in the past. You want to find a quick fix before your friends start tilting their heads on yours shoulders when you complain about it and say "awww", and you hear that there's this new TV show that is offering...

What a disgrace.
No I'm not referring to Jeremy Clarkson's comments on The One Show last night, saying that he would take all public sector workers "outside and execute them in front of their families."
No, its whats happened afterwards which is a disgrace. Unison coming out and demanding...

You know that the Olympics are around the corner when you've seen your 4657475th Cadburys and Lloyds TSB advert.
Right now though, London needs to get its act together. We've got the biggest celebration happening on our doorsteps in literally months and we're acting like cynical bastards.
You can't...

You've probably already heard the news, that according to Vice Magazine, The Only Way Is Dalston is coming to MTV.
"Wahey!", you are thinking sarcastically. Another show, like The Only Way Is Essex and Made In Chelsea comprised of self-indulgent gits who fill our screens with their unrelenting...

The words 'Delivering Quality First' are terrifying. When an up-and-coming report uses such banal management speak in its title in order to distance itself from the subject matter it is dwelling on as far as possible, in this case for the BBC the big big word of CUTS, it is...

Oh lordy. From next year the price of a yearly university tuition fee rises to a humble £374,000, so every post A-Level student is starting uni this year, therefore abandoning their original plan of working in a dodgy supermarket near their parents' house for six months before travelling to some...

Yesterday, Facebook made some changes.
Of course I didn't have to tell you that. you've complained about them already.
In fact, let's have a random poll and have a look at selection of comments on the official 'Facebook' Facebook page today, just to make sure:
Rachel: "Awful. Just awful."

Until about three years ago, as a gay man, I had never had any contact with the gay scene. I grew up in the countryside, the nearest gay bar was approximately 300 miles away and was shit, finding a gay lifestyle magazine or place to hang out was as simple...

Ah September. The time when TV columnists make statements like "Oh wasn't August's TV just RUBBISH?... but now there are proper things for you to watch" when you never actually realised that there was actually a difference. In fact I might as well reveal to you that all we've got...

Camden's Electric Ballroom smashed up. Ella Fitzgerald dead. Zac Efron pleasuring himself in his own bed. These are just some of the frankly bizarre rumours that have been RTing their way around the Fail Whale world and you know what, for a long time I didn't mind.
In fact...
