![]() | True Pedantry A Huliganov Rant (done now but ostensibly for October 2007, as I missed that month). What's this all about? Well, right now, in the UK there are a few books and broadcasts going on about the so-called walking diet or the 10,000 steps diet, all of which revolves around the use of a pedometer, which is like a mechanism clipped onto the belt that clicks a counter forward every time it moves up and down. However, there is a problem with this whole concept, as I show in the rant. |
![]() | What is Culture? The new series of The Culture Show on BBC TWO starts on Tuesday 3 June 2008 (yes I do say Saturday 3 June in the video - sorry) and to mark the occasion I do a video review of the new Culture Show 'What is Culture?' website and ask the same question myself. But don't worry I haven't gone all useful on your - I still don't manage to actually come up with any conclusions in the piece. The jist of it though is - Culture is everything to everyone but nothing to all people except to some people it is something and to others it might be everything - I think you get the idea now. The quote of the episode actually goes to Andrew Marr though. He said "There's all the stuff you do to keep yourself fed and dry and everything else is culture." Things left out My bad impression of Forest Gump saying "culture is as culture does". A passionate plea for the iPlayer Party Lots of footage of the Culture Show shot by pointing the camera at the computer screen and a full screen play from YouTube. Next week I think I will be mostly complaining about milk cartons and why they're so bloody annoying to open - that and why I now have to carry anything I buy in a shop in my arms because I'm too stupid to remember to take a carrier bag with me. |

![]() | I hate pedants I hate pedants! You know who I mean - the kind of people that start a message board reply, blog comment or even conversation with Well Actually - in that sneery annoying way. I hate their horrible scrunched up whingy faces and want to see them all jump head first into a blender. They're a waste of the oxygen they use and the atoms used to make them up. They don't deserve to remain on the planet. But don't worry I am seeking physciatric help for my little obsession. This post looks at and explains why I hate them so much - them and their picky, pinickity, pointlessly annoying ways. |
