Well, it’s been a while since I made any blog posts and I recently shared the great series that is Charlie The Unicorn with my friend and ended up re-watching them all myself so figured there may be others out there that also have not experienced the amazingness.
It takes a bit to get into so at least watch the 1st until the end before dismissing it.
Enjoy peoples!
Well, since my last food post seemed to do so well I thought it was about time for another one (now with deserts too!).
Wow, my first competition on my own website! Not sure why I haven’t done them before, but that’s the way things go when you work for yourself I guess. Always working on other people’s things…
So, if you haven’t read my previous blog post about my love for Kickstarter and Playing Cards then you can hit that up here.
Once you’ve read it then you’ll notice I am a backer of the Asylum playing cards deck and I liked it so much I actually picked a pledge that means I will have a spare deck to give away to you lovely readers of my blog.
Here’s some artwork from the cards so you can see just how awesome they are:
Kickstarter is a wonderful website and has taken over as my dirty pleasure from fiverr.com (See my blogpost about fiverr).
One of my other strange, unexplanable pleasures is interesting decks of cards. I really can’t explain this one, as I don’t even play that many card games these days but I do love a good deck so I have been looking at a few on Kickstarter and I found some great ones!
Here’s a few you might be interested in:
Well, I’m a bit slow because Borderlands 2 has been out for a while now but here are some wallpapers in case you haven’t got round to showing your love for the game the only way a desktop can.
Well, I was reminded lately by a friend that he often likes to read my blog at work, but I had not updated it in a while with anything good. (I also got told to turn this blog into a porn website, but that’s not as relevant to this).
He was right, I have not posted anything good in a while, so I decided to post something I consider almost as good as turning my blog into porn, food porn.
Enjoy the gallery, and don’t get too hungry.
More after the break.
Not much more to say really… you should be playing it.
I recently was lucky enough to get into the final beta weekend for Guild Wars 2 and had an amazing time!
I had very high hopes from what I had already seen of GW2, and with Diablo 3 being a bit of a let down I wanted a good game to hold my attention and I could play with all my friends and GW2 didn’t disappoint.
ArenaNet, the people behind GW, recently released some videos about various parts of the game and I actually agree with them for the most part, which is rare from marketing videos.
Check them all out below:
Hey guys, this post is going to be rather different from my usual ones, no gadgets in this bad boy!
So a little background into my health and dieting. For anyone who knows me in real life, they’d know that I’m over weight. I’m not “massive”, but I could definitely benefit from losing weight. We all know the way that is considered “best”, and that is to eat healthy and exercise but what really is “eating healthy”?
Most people believe this is generally cutting out high calorie, sugary foods. In laments, this generally means less deserts, crisps and fried food and more salad and such. I think we’ve all tried this, and the main drawback is it’s boring as hell. After all, the more fat the better it tastes! Right?
Well, the way the Ketogenic diet works is rather different from regular diets. This is all based around very little carbs and high fat and protein. This means rather than cutting out the “fun” stuff, you’re actually cutting out things like bread, rice etc.
All the following is pulled together from various research I’ve done, but as with much internet research some of it may not actually be 100% correct so please don’t take this as gospel. As with anything you read on the internet, please do your own research before taking it at face value.
It seems like a long time ago when I was writing about Siri and how impressed I was with it. Sadly it seems the hype didn’t quite live up to expectations and no one that I know is using it any more.
I’m sure Google Now will go the same way, but I have to say I’m impressed again. Here’s a video of someone putting Google Now through it’s paces and it stands up remarkably well.
We’ll see how well it does when it comes to my West Yorkshire accent.
