When was the last time you cried?
A toughy… I’m not really sure. I guess it’s been a while. Maybe the last time I watched the final episode of Babylon 5? Ok, that’s a little geeky but generally really emotional writing about loss gets me, and B5 was probably the last thing I watched in that vein. The main character knows that he’s about to die,...

Chips and cheese or a kebab after a night out?
The whole lactose intolerance thing pretty much rule out chips and cheese unfortunately. Haggis supper is a frequent choice (in terms of number I get vs number of nights out - still talking one every couple of months).
However, I’m partial to a good kebab even without the associated night out, its just that the only decent...

Where do you think you’ll be in 10 years time?
I have no idea. I’d probably settle for “somewhere on the planet, preferably breathing”, but that’s not a particularly complete answer.
I’d really like in ten years to be properly settled. I’ll be 36 by then so I’d like to have a family, and preferably a job I don’t despise....

Is romance dead?
“It’s just a flesh wound!”
I’m maybe not the best person to ask about this, my concept of romance still being in the “fling sand in her eye and pull her hair” vein, but I think it’s definitely in trouble. We’re in an age where a slurred pickup line is a primary method for initiating a relationship, and at the same...

Are we alone in the universe?
On our planet alone the diversity of life we can find is immense. Extremophiles have only just been discovered in the past 20 or 30 years which has pushed back our knowledge of the limits of what life as we know it can tolerate. Based on this, the question becomes “Is it likely that given the diversity of life we have found ourselves, our...

After an apocalyptic event, pockets of humanity emerge, banding together to maintain some semblance of order. If we are classified by our skills in this technologically barren wasteland to aid our new community, what is the talent or skill you provide?
Firstly, I’d question the validity of an assumption that apocalypse => loss of technology. Mankind will still have the...

Macaroon or Tablet?
Tablet without a doubt. I’m not even going to dignify this one with a long thought out reply…

Spirits or beer?
Typically beer but I really don’t enjoy the way it makes me pee all the damned time. Seriously, if I’m out drinking beer, I’ll be up and down every ten of fifteen minutes. Its ridiculous!
So instead I sometimes get spirits. But then I mix them with Coke which sort of defeats the purpose…

If you could choose a superhero power, what would it be?
I have enough pressure in my life just being me. I don’t know that I could cope with having any sort of super-human ability that I’d feel compelled to put to work for the good of mankind. Gun to my head, I’d probably want to have something utilitarian and not massively flashy (gun to my head, I’d...

Would you bake me a cake for my birthday?
Of course I would. I really enjoy baking and experimenting in the kitchen, so it would be a good opportunity. Of course, since these questions are posted anonymously, figuring out how to ship it to you might be a bit hard, so I’ll probably just east it on your behalf and post somewhere about how good it was. There may even be...

Stalin vs. Martians Trailer on Steam →
I have absolutely no idea what this is about. At all
Without the ability to one click share, or at least copy/paste links on the iPhone, the Tumblr app seems reasonably redundant
I’m setting up my iphone to post stuff to my tumblr - which is what you are looking at right now!

How To Kill The Music Industry | TorrentFreak →
TorrentFreak is carrying a great guest post today on how much the Entertainment industry has changed in the past eight years, and how shortfals in revenue can’t be attributed to a single cause. Well worth a read.
It begins again
Rebooted and Rewound, KateHo got me thinking about tumblr again, so 2 year old posts got cleared out, and lets have some fun.
