Quick Tip: Intimidate the Neighbours

When reading the story of a couple in Harriman, Tennessee today, I was struck by one thing. Wait. That’s a lie. By about four things, but the point of today’s Quick Tip is only one of them. According to the Metro: “Officers responded to a call reporting a man on fire in Harriman, Tennessee on Tuesday, only to discover the couple severely burned and, apparently, drunk. The...

Funny. Now. Do it.

I realise that I haven’t been funny in a while. Not that nothing funny has happened in a few months. I mean just the other day ten police officers were hurt in a clothing sale.

Chia Obama

These have to be the most useless gifts ever. I read about this on a Weird News site, and then googled it, and came upon the official site for the product, chia-obama.com The best part has to be this description of the...

Impatience a virtue?

Impatience a virtue?

Usually I’m all about being patient. Over the past couple of years it’s a skill I’ve worked to develop, but not always successfully. However, I read a story this week about impatience that made me giggle uncontrollably for a good ten minutes. A PASSENGER on a bus got impatient of waiting on the driver to start his shift – so drove the vehicle herself. Chen Li decided to do...
