Aye.

Opera doesn't work with Blogger again. 

They should just rename Sunday "Nothing But Frigging Cookery Programmes On TV" Day.

And no I don't give a fuck about your new phone, or how it validates your otherwise empty existence. Defining yourself by the consumer durables you own is so far beyond pathetic it defies the normal parameters of what actually constitutes "pathetic".

In ten years time people will look back at a time when smartphones and auto-tuned fuckery define popular culture not with nostalgia, but with bewilderment at how we let things slip.

Whatever headline is on the BBC page, not now, but when you read this, is the worst thing ever. And it will remain the worse thing ever, until it is replaced by the next, different worst thing.

Angry Since 1967 "Most Popular" Angry Since 1967

In figures released today "Angry Since 1967" confirmed its position as the pre-eminent   "Angry Since 1967" blog. Commenting on these results AS1967 claimed "we're seeing record numbers of hits to the site. This is matched by our engagement statistics which demonstrate people are spending more time exploring the blog, up 50% per visit". Dismissing suggestions 3 hits a month, most of which came from Google was, in fact, pish poor AS1967 claimed that these were just "bald" figures which had not been adjusted according to well established interpretive models. "These numbers are representative rather than indicative. In this instance we use the commonly accepted assumption which directly equates the numbers of hits Angry Since 1967 receives and the population of the country which coded the automated web spider browsing the site. When this is factored into the calculation, it means a single visit from Google is equivalent to getting 312 million views.".
