It’s no secret that I think our species is pretty weird. One of the weirdest things that I find about our species though, is our propensity for isolating, segregating and categorising our fellow weirdos. Humans are, for better or for worse, multi-faceted creatures. We are all onions (figuratively), with layers upon layers upon layers of […]
It all started five days ago. I was sitting in my office, aka, a local cafe, where a man walked in and sat beside me. I live in a pretty … trendy? area, so it’s not uncommon to see some whacky people come by. But this guy wasn’t your ordinary weirdo; he had quite evidently […]
If there are two words in the English language that I absolutely loathe seeing paired together, they are: I’m. And bored. What does this statement even mean? I’m bored! Argh-Gah-Bajahhhh.

Haha. I started following Matt’s blog a little while ago, cause […]
So in Australia our government is doing this splendidly clever thing and holding a plebiscite to determine whether we should legalise gay marriage. Translation for the non-Aussies: The Australian government is going to spend $120 million on a postal vote to put the morality of homosexuality under the spotlight, i.e., to legitimise and give […]
I was about to fall asleep just now but I got out of bed to write this and I haven’t reread it because I’m half asleep, so if I’ve made any typos or stupid things, please let me know in the comments to save me from proofing it in the morning. I’m half asleep, so […]
DISCLAIMER: All of this information has come from Wikipedia and an interview with Lady Gaga that I found on YouTube. My knowledge on this article is narrow.
