“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.”

An irrational day

So I woke up this morning to discover that Prof. Stephen Hawking is now on his way off to the Great Lecture Hall in the Sky: Physicist Stephen Hawking has died at the age of 76. Hawking’s children Lucy, Robert and Tim issued a statement on Wednesday, March 14th, in...

There will be grunts

I hate women’s tennis. I hate it because it is slow, boring, full of unnecessary womanly weeping dramatics and hysterics, and riddled with deeply unfeminine women. As I have pointed out before, former Wimbledon champion and general all-around Dutch shitlord...

Priorities

This golden retriever could teach us all a thing or two about getting them straight: I have to say, I’m impressed. And it’s not just because I have a great personal fondness for big fluffy dogs in general, and golden retrievers in particular. That dog is...

Holy crap, he’s real

A couple of weeks back I posted a clip from TOP GEAR – y’know, back when it was still good, as in, still hosted by the three blokiest blokes ever to bloke across a TV screen – which gave us a few good belly laughs about a chap with the last name...

Master Chief IRL

Those wonderfully mad Russians have evidently decided that my beloved HALO saga is, in fact, a long-running documentary somehow sent backwards through some kind of wormhole to the present day. That would explain why they have basically developed their own version...

The most interesting bounty hunter in the Galaxy

There was a time when I used to watch Cartoon Network almost religiously. I grew up watching old-school cartoons, from Tom & Jerry to Scooby Doo to, of course, Transformers and SWAT Kats. (Many happy memories…) But eventually I grew up- partly...

Only in Soviet Russia…

Russia might still be one of the few countries on Earth where men act like men and women act like women- and to be honest I have my doubts about both of those things. But, I’ll be there in a couple of weeks’ time myself to see what things are like, so...

The GOAT is a complete ham

He may well be the greatest tennis player of all time- and possibly the greatest athlete of all time- but from time to time it’s nice to see that Roger Federer is in fact human, and has a very funny sense of humour: Share this: Share on X (Opens in new...

Lady of Pain by Unknown

Lady of the East, thy grey eyes haunt me in my dreams, Thy words soothe me in the morns and then break me in the eves; Thy loving voice bids me forth to fulfill thy command — But thy sweet deadly venom freezes heart and stays mine hand. Did thou lift up my heart...

Shorts

It’s been a while since I last did one of these collections of badthink, and since there is far more going on than I can be arsed to write about on any given day (as I do, in fact, have a job and a fairly busy life), I figured that this might be as good a time...
