Something I Didn't Do: what is a man to do? (love... →
somethingididntdo:
I once knew a man who had been in love. You could see it on his face. It showed itself via a large scar down the left hand side. Coming out just under his eye, down past his mouth and ending in a large divot on his chin. It had been made by a hook, he said. “And not the kind you catch a fish…

It is Christmas but…
You can’t wear that.
What do you mean you don’t mean you mean I smell?
People don’t actually think it is funny to give socks anymore.
Wrapping paper is not ‘implied’.
Just… dont.
Hitting me with a chocolate orange is not, ‘festive’.
Nor an orange.
1.pm is not really Christmas Day (though we all wish it was).
Santa Claus is not opt out.

Across many markets in many cities, there are things for sale. Weird, odd, whowouldbuythat things abound. There are, of course, things you might want to buy. But as it goes with things that anyone might actually buy… they aren’t that interesting. Amongst the dreadful toys, fake wigs and…

Something I Didn't Do: kiss me now →
somethingididntdo:
“Kiss me now!” came the cry out of nowhere. I turned, surprised, and laid eyes upon the Train Wino for the first time. He was saying it to everyone in the carriage, or maybe just to the bottle of red. It was hard to tell, but he said it with a force and conviction only a true wino can muster. I…

Dear Funny, Witty and Good Writer Seeker,
I think that’s me.
If I was writing a newsletter vaguely to do with coffee I would say:
“COFFEE DRINKERS!
Ever wondered how much better coffee is that tea? I thought you had.
Here are a bunch of science reinforced reasons:
Coffee is better for you! Coffee is ever so slightly addictive, and the reason for this is that your body...

Did everyone else know it was Christmas on Saturday?!? I feel like I missed a memo or something; I was painfully sure it was over a week away.
This, I think, is what happens when you don’t have an advent calendar!

Something I Didn't Do: don't feed the animals →
somethingididntdo:
Out there in the wild live the animals we know, accept and love: Bears steal lunch and rip peoples faces off, yet bears don’t need a fishing license and they get to share a toilet with the Pope. Rats eat babies, scare womenfolk and carry plague bearing fleas, yet they are routinely trained in…

Snow is covering everything. Where once there was road, now there is snow. Where once there were people, now there is snow. Where once there was a graveyard, now there is a snow covered graveyard. You cannot cover death with cotton wool or meringue or candy-floss; It would not fool the detective…

drugs
somethingididntdo:
I remember the day when drugs were legalised:
People didn’t have to do shady deals.
People stopped dying because they had snorted poison covered glass.
Addicts got the help they needed.
Kids got educated.
People’s lives were no longer automatically ruined in some country far away because someone wanted to show off and buy loads of coke (instead the government would tax...

I was right about that time you shouldn’t have had that drink and you drank it and then you realised you shouldn’t have. If you had listened to me like I said you might still have a boyfriend and your handbag might not smell that way. I was right about the lottery numbers, but I forgot to tell…

It's just a game
Dear Just A Gamers,
I don’t live in Berlin right now, but I’m planning a move (looking for jobs, in fact). I thought this out loud - via skype - to a friend of mine and she sent me a link to your job, because she knows how much I like videogames.
This seems rather fortuitous to me.
You, a company seeking gaming enthusiasts with good communication skills, native english speaking...

There were no taxis walking home tonight. There were no kebabs, and there was certainly no horrific dancing in the street to tunes you will never know. This we can all agree on. What isn’t so clear is why these three girls were laughing.
3 Grls Laffed. WHY? They did this as I didn’t dance on…

Ice is here to fuck with us again. No thanks to the will of God; no thanks to a weather cycle centuries old, occurring outwith Man’s great meddling mittens, and certainly no thanks to bloody ‘chance*’. This bollock-freezing, “What are hands again?” nuclear winter is here because one or two of us…

A job for Ollie
Dear The Brewmasters and Mistressess of Thornbridge.
I’m Ollie, and I am a loveable northen beerthusiast. Right now I work in an Italian restaurant. I have a Masters in Brewing… and I work in an Italian restaurant. My life is a lie!
I am not Italian. I don’t even like pasta - I do like pizza (although a friend told me this was barely even Italian!) - what I do like is brewing a tasty,...
