Christmas truce →
Was just watching part three of the Red vs. Blue holiday special on Waypoint and was reminded of this. Not timely — maybe — since it’s already Boxing Day, but like I said, I slept through Christmas.

“Hng… Wha…? Chriswha…? Go away, I’m sleeping.” That’s what happens when I ignore the Earth’s rotation and make up my own night and day.

Mom and the sister don’t appreciate the Kids/Poker Face Weezer cover. The sister doesn’t even think Kids is a good song. I’m disappointed.

…BBC Sport understands. Alonso, Button, Hamilton, Massa, and now Schumacher. And to think Ferrari and McLaren will have infighting to quell. 2010 is going to be very interesting.

I’m taking this as proof that, indeed, more people hate The X Factor than like it. If only this is all it takes to remove a show from the air.

Passengers trapped on Eurostar trains relive... →
Everytime I read the story about Eurostar trains getting stuck under the Channel, I can’t help but think of Thomas, Terence and the Snow. Only the passengers seem to be a lot grumpier. And it’s all happening under the sea. Wasn’t there a film about undersea trains? Or is that just a childhood fantasy of mine?

Just completed Most Wanted for the second time, though this time on the Xbox and without using nitrous at all. Every thing’s so brown in that game. Damn I’m productive.

Forget a secondary colour touchscreen, I want eBook readers to have a display on the back so people sitting across you on the Tube can check out what you’re reading.

“Hair grows about half a millimeter a day, or about 6 inches a year.”
– Oh Yeah Facts I think my hair would like to differ. Unfortunately. I wish mine would only grow six inches a year.

One Sleep Later, I'm Older.
Is it coincidence that on my birthday I wake up at exactly the time I was born? Like to–the–minute exact?

Guardian: It takes a lot to get Simon Cowell rattled, but rattled he appears to be. At a press conference today, Cowell acknowledged the Facebook campaign to get Rage Against the Machine’s 1992 song, Killing in the Name, to Christmas No 1, saying it was “dismissive” of the public as it was directed at him. “If there’s a campaign, and I think the campaign’s aimed directly at...

Sod coursework and imminent deadlines, karting was gre… Well, actually that was half–great, half–frustrating. The kart was working great at first, and I was overtaking people again and again. That was the great part. But after the first yellow flag, somehow it wasn’t accelerating as smoothly as it used to anymore. It jerks a bit, and then speeds up at a slower pace. Which gets annoying...

Yea… Starting a five–week project five days before the deadline, then throwing it out two days later and restarting does not work well. I’m very screwed.

Three hours of Internet on Wi–Fi and a few minutes of YouTube later, the iPhone’s battery is dead. Yup, it’s quite buggered.
