Well, 2012 is here, and wormwood does not seem to have put in an appearance, but there's still time.

As a White privileged middle-class male trying to navigate my way through the increasingly politically correct world in which we live, I often find myself unsure of whether to laugh or to be offended and demand a stop to "this sort of thing".

The latest media sensation to trigger this response is Chris Lilley.

Suppose one was stuck in Switzerland, and wanted to access BBC iPlayer (having been forced to buy an annual TV license) but was being thwarted by stupid location based drm.

What Uk based VPN proxy service would you recommend or advise against?

I like to think of myself as a modern, metrosexual kind of guy. But every now and then, I feel a longing for the olden days.

And it's all thanks to the BBC.

For a long time now over fifteen years in fact, I have been what many people might pejoratively label a 'conspiracy theorist'.

I have an instinctive aversion to and mistrust of all forms of authority. I think this may have been a side effect of my "comprehensive" education at an outer London sink school.

So basically whenever any politician of any shade states anything at all about anything, my immediate reaction is "what is this shady bastard lying to me about now? and what is his/her not-so-hidden agenda"?

I am a great fan of Wally. In fact these days, I model most of my work behaviour on him. What would Wally do?

For some reason I found this hilarious.

I mean, obviously it can't be global warming because that's bullshit as we all know, but the alternative doesn't bear thinking about!

I am astonished at the blatant propaganda that passes for news these days.

So we may or may not be aware of the numerous documented problems with vaccines.

The powers that be seem to be attempting to make us want to get our flu jabs by creating false scarcity and using reverse psychology
