Our world. Our views. Our voice.
Return of the Pearl Princess is China’s most highly rated and beloved television series of all time, and in 2013, was dubbed for its American release.
The completed project has not been released. Personally, I think that it is not the right series to showcase Chinese television to the Western world.
Firstly, Chinese television series are more related to Telenovelas, they are Continue reading “Dubbing Asian television: Iron Chef only please”
Your child is your responsibility, stop blaming others for their bad behaviour.
I am sick of the growing trend with parents who are insisting that their golden child is perfect and can do no wrong, and it is the teacher’s fault that their grades or personalities are not up to scratch. Continue reading “Your kids are your responsibility, so, take responsibility.”
Public transport is there to be shared, not hogged. And many of us have been guilty of bad behaviour on public transport at one time or another. But it is time to amend our ways and start being more considerate. Here’s a list of the top 5 inconsiderate things that people do on public transport: Continue reading “PUBLIC TRANSPORT SUCKS BECAUSE OF YOU”
Oh what fun it is trying to find love. And if you’re wondering that was sarcastic or genuine, it’s written with a bit of both. There are some great people online, but the alarming fact is that 10% of sex offenders use dating apps to meet people (according to Statistic Brain).

Welcome to the most common response I get when I ask a customer how they are going or hello. Rarely do I get an “I’m good thanks” or “I’m well”, it is a cold, blunt often rude line of “I’m just looking” which if you really look at it, it translates to leave me alone.

I grew up in the country, my family had horses and quite a lot of acreage, and space has never really been a stranger to me. Some people would call me a country boy I, however would not. I was a round peg in a square hole. The slow pace is nice, but it’s not for me. I will say though, that people in country towns are nice, polite, and they also understand the mechanics of sidewalk etiquette. The irony being that space is all around them, yet the know how to do the footpath Waltz. Continue reading “Keep LEFT unless overtaking!”
When I grow up, I want to be a member of FIFA. I want to represent my country and collect as much bribes as possible and live large. Either that, or go be an official in a developing nation, that works too. But mostly, I want to be a FIFA official, and collect so much money that my puppy can have luxury penthouse apartments all over the world. Yay FIFA!
FIFA, the world’s most powerful sporting body, and richest, has made the news recently for all the wrong reasons. And as a “friend” has pointed out, I have painted this fine group with a single prejudicial brush. Shame on me.
Meh. Whatever dude, they’re (the ones who have and will be caught – just to cover my ass) a bunch of corrupt a’holes, who deserve to be investigated. And it’s all falling apart very quickly since May 2015.
Busy bodies and nosy parkers everywhere have long known that the greatest achievement in meddling in other people’s affairs is match making. This is where you, the overzealous one, is able to essentially quality control the “plus ones” in your life. Most of us just want to see our friends happy together, but don’t actually put much thought into it other than them both being single at the same time.
Many of you are already infuriated that I have the audacity to even question Superman’s awesome rock hard body, let alone imply that he’s fat. I’ve thought about it long and hard and this is what health magazines, television, movies and the gym has taught me:
Sex, politics and religion are the three taboo topics in any office and often, social gatherings. You have your differing views and beliefs, and when you get a passionate person onto the topic, it’s like you wish a black hole would open up and swallow you whole. That’s right, you, not them, as inevitably, their rants (let’s call a spade a spade) will bring forth another’s rant. It’s like a never ending cycle. It’s just easier to remove yourself than them really.
