Transaction Denied! The geek blocking meme

August 28, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

“Meme” has to be one of my favourite neologisms. Did you know Richard Dawkins coined it in 1976? That’s 42 years ago! Did you also know that in 1904 the biologist Richard Semon suggested “Mneme”, to mean almost the same thing? These memes are far less academic. These are practical memes. The transaction denied meme […]

Comic strip: Adjust

August 25, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Have you become a grump? This comic strip from Lunar Baboon is a clever reminder. Sometimes it is better to put down baggage, switch off those parts of the brain which might over analyse, and just let yourself enjoy life.

Gulp! The loot crate craze goes hentai!

August 25, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

I suppose this is no surprise. The Otaku Box (NSFW) works on the Loot Crate model. You subscribe, pay a flat fee and every month you’ll receive a gift box containing goodies with a recommended retail price of more than that value. Tick the “I’m 18+ and interested in hentai” and The Otaku Box promises […]

Here is Jensen Ackles as The Red Hood

August 24, 2018 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Jensen Ackles may be best known for playing Dean Winchester on the long-running Supernatural TV series (now in its 14th season, wow) but in Batman: Under the Red Hood he was also Red Hood. It’s the former Robin Jason Todd who most people associate with the Red Hood. Yes, that same Jason Todd who was […]
