“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”

Given that we’re all nerds here – well, most of us are – and given that a few said nerds are big fans of the Warhammer franchise in either its regular or 40K flavours, I figured it might be useful to borrow an idea from that universe to describe the...

Monday morning at Mar-a-Lago

It’s hard to believe that it has been a full week (just about) since His Most Illustrious, Noble, August, Benevolent, and Legendary Celestial Majesty, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Donaldus Triumphus Magnus Astra, the First of His Name, the Lion of Midnight, may...

A rather piquant video has been making the rounds on teh innarwebz, showing a Federal BATFE agent being arrested and tased by local police in the USA for, basically, being a colossal arse. The whole clip is well worth enjoying in full, simply to get a feeling for the...

Here’s Monday, yet again, and once more, we’re pretty much all WELL behind where we thought we would be. For me, though, I must admit that this particular Monday didn’t start off too badly. I’m in the process of getting a new driver’s...

“We gotta eject, Mav!!!”

Gentlemen, have any of you ever tried ground turducken? This is a particularly weird kind of “pseudo-roast” that comes from stuffing a deboned chicken into a deboned duck into a deboned turkey. Apparently, this odd concoction is popular in certain parts of...

Friday T&A: Faceplant Edition

Gents, we sometimes get a little hyperbolic around here and say that “THIS is the week that changed the world forever!!!”. But, in all honesty, THIS week actually qualifies for the moniker, because that is precisely what happened over the past few days. It...
