Half finished buildings, communal toilets, gay protesters, suicide bombers, no snow, Putin's increasingly plastic looking face - this is going to be AWESOME!

I've never understood why the spray they use to turn mud into "grass" isn't actually the colour of grass. Who has teal coloured grass?

Somehow I doubt South Korea would have "spent" $51 billion on them.

But if all the palm trees in LA are dead, won't it look weird that your film, supposedly set in LA, has lots of palm trees in it?

She's not the Queen of England, she's the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Or the Queen of the United Kingdom if you must shorten it. And she isn't "Her highness", she is "Her Majesty The Queen".

You boss if they happen to be German. Believe it or not, more than one person learned that the hard way...

Wait, I never worked at a law firm...

No, these people actually think they're being intellectually evolved. Seriously. I know, it's painfully obvious to me too. They're just a bunch of clueless white folks who totally aren't racist because they have a black friend. Though acquaintance would probably be a better description. Okay, so they live in the same

You mean she was taking part in a competitive sport and the other competitors didn't like her and wanted to see her lose and themselves win? All because she was black. How on Earth could anyone overcome that? Oh, the exact same way every other person participating in a competitive sport does. But she's black. She's

I wasn't aware that an individual had been appointed leader of the creative arts movement in Brooklyn. Good to know I guess. And she got to name it. And by doing so excluded all white people, males and anyone who doesn't describe themselves as "carefree". Tortured artist? No thanks, we're full. So that's... nice, I

Yes, but it's human nature to get stuck in the past and unable to move on. We need to acknowledge it and then move on to actually taking action to make tomorrow better than today.

That photo is from 1981. Lego hasn't gone backwards. We have. And Lego has been forced to keep up with the increasing demand for increasingly gendered toys. We need to ask ourselves why every "girl" toy is bright pink? Why is it if something isn't bright pink we think a girl won't or shouldn't play with it? And how

There are two separate issues at play and I think it's important to acknowledge both in order to make progress. The first issue is what Lego makes. The second, and probably more significant issue, is what stores will stock. Lego can make all the female-featuring products they want, but if stores won't stock them

McDonalds has freezers. You know, the cold place they keep the "beef" patties before "cooking" them. Throwing a box of veggie patties in there doesn't seem all that difficult to me.

I wasn't rude to you for no reason. There was a very good reason. You're a fucking idiot who needs to be taken firmly by the shoulders and shaken until you wake up from your self-important, vapid existence.

It's not difficult to grasp at all. But since we don't have a time machine to go back and change what happened, we can only deal with today. Which we avoid doing by focusing on the past. And then nothing gets better. It's not about denying the past. It's about dealing with the real-world issues we're left with today.

I'm probably going to end up feeling stupid for asking this, but how do you know it's 600mm? Is that like a special dinosaur thing or does it say 600mm somewhere?

Guilty. Oh so very guilty.

Yes. There's a massive amount of evidence that she is guilty. And none that she's innocent. She doesn't have an alibi (Sollecito recanted and admitted that she asked him to lie for her) and even if she did, she provided a written statement - that was not requested by the police or the prosecution - that states she

Russia: where good taste went to die.
