Internet-based snark since 2007.
Argh! Still a week behind. Episode catch up continues. This episode is called “South will rise again”, and I’m really hoping this doesn’t mean Confederate Zombies but who knows with this show? We open with the return of the cowboy from episode 2. We’d kind of forgotten about him, hadn’t we? Now, just remind us, what…
So I’m frantically trying to catch up on episodes after having a hectic couple of weeks of non-viewing. But anyway, this episode is called “Monster Swamp” which is a phrase the Sheriff used at the end of the last episode by way of describing the anarchic and violent nature of things to his son, Eugene….
Gah. So trying to get recaps up in a timely fashion didn’t really happen. My bad. Perhaps I need an inner voice with the timbre of Jesse Custer’s ordering me to pull finger and sort my shit out? Speaking of which, the last time we saw the holy man in question he was instructing a…
Most of my writing these days is for my day job. Here’s a selection of my latest postings there.
Yee-ha cowboys and we’re off and galloping into episode 2, is called “See”. And this time we’re down to a more standard sized 49 minute episode so I guess we can assume that extra long pilot episode was just a one off. So what will we see this episode? Hopefully more of Tulip being intimidating…

So a couple of weeks ago this amazing thing happened where my fiancé, who is something of a clever clogs, won a competition via Air New Zealand for tickets to the red carpet premiere of Taika Waititi’s latest film “Hunt for the Wilderpeople”. I was pretty durn excited about it, I can tell you.
Recently I wrote a piece for The Spinoff arguing, in a not very serious tone of voice, that the bogans of beloved Outrageous Fortune were really just latterday incarnations of the legendary vikings, right down to their love of blow-off valves on longships (just kidding, they didn’t have blow-off valves, but they almost certainly had…
Okay, so that blog post I wrote about mental health in post-quake Christchurch got an amazing amount of attention with people sharing it willy nilly and generally agreeing that it was right on the money.
A picture of me in the same place at three different moments in time. Feb 2011: After the 6.3 magnitude earthquake on 22 February 2011, immediately after we had left the building, my friend and workmate took a photo of me with her phone. The expression on my face probably says everything. I’m looking towards…
