Adventure Time: A Last Goodbye

Adventure Time: A Last Goodbye The finale of Adventure Time was a bittersweet pill to swallow. For a long-term fan, it marked the end of something special, and remains very close to my heart. The first time I watched Adventure Time was over the shoulder of my younger brother. I’d been passing through the Living Room, but the show caught my eye, and I ended up sitting down to watch the rest of it. It was bright, colourful, and funny in the most innocent. It gave off a tone of

An Open Letter to Salad

An Open Letter to Salad Dear Salad, Why do you feel the need to permeate every restaurant meal? Why do you wait beside my steaks when you know I’ll never eat you? Why do you come in a bag with my curry? Why do you have to swim in my sweet and sour when I would’ve preferred more chicken instead? You follow me to barbeques and remain untouched as I fill up on drumsticks and sausages. You are constantly pushed to the side of the plate in an effort to make it look like I've eaten

The Identity Myth: National Identity in a Changing World

The Identity Myth: National Identity in a Changing World National identity does not exist. It is an abstract concept; a myth, the same as Robin Hood or King Arthur. As with these stories, our identities are closely tied to our surroundings. Robin Hood, for example, is identified as an English story because the characters and locations are consistently associated with Nottingham, England. Yet King Arthur is also claimed as an English hero, despite his origins in Welsh/Breton t

Coffee Conversations: Nice Day for a Royal Wedding

Coffee Conversations: Nice Day for a Royal Wedding Coffee Conversations is a segment that talks about things usually overheard in quieter moments; like when talking to a friend in a coffee shop. The subjects are loose, opinionated, and poorly researched. I promise nothing and will deliver less. Just a tea for me, thanks. Milk, please, no sugar. Ta. Soooo… Oh my God oh my God! Price Harry’s getting married today woo! I can’t wait to look at all the mad hats and famous people I

Reasons Why You Shouldn't Date Co-Workers

Reasons Why You Shouldn't Date Co-Workers There she is, the Mistress of Human Resources, the Madame of the Corner Desk. She’s so office-hot. She’s probably the third best-looking girl on the whole floor. The way she stands by the coffee machine is as sultry as her slumped posture when she’s working late. It’s enough to drive a man to do something stupid, like ask her out. No? You don’t think that’s a bad idea? Well go ahead, try it. But first, let me tell you a few things tha

Coffee Conversations: Why Can't Classics Be Sexy?

Coffee Conversations: Why Can’t Classics be Sexy? Coffee Conversations is a new segment that talks about things usually overheard in quieter moments; like when talking to a friend in a coffee shop. The subjects will be loose, opinionated, and poorly researched. I promise nothing and will deliver less. So, first up in this train of thought comes an idea I tried to articulate for three minutes when I woke up at 5:35 this morning. I woke up, thought ‘I’d better write this down b
