Politics Bolitics

Excuse the fact that I've not posted in ages - I've been busier than a one-legged cat covering up its own shit. Since that last time I've turned 25, which is a wonderful feeling. It's not actually, it feels completely the same as 24, 23, 22, 21...except I finally have pubic ...

Inspirational Words Inspire Your Sorry Ass

Good day. I haven't blogged for nearly a month now, mainly because now that the football season is over (yes, the European Championships are on, but I have no vested interest) I have little to say. That's not entirely true, as I have some more stuff planned for this blog soon - ...

Why I Hate Manchester United

Yes, I've completely gone against what I said in my last post - this blog gets neglected more than my hair does. I'll try and post a bit more regularly, but I'll make no promises! Today's post will be about why I hate Manchester United. Hate's a bit of a strong ...

That Was The Season That Was

First off, apologies about the very patchy posting schedule - too much to do, but I promise I'll post more from now on! Anyway, I want to prattle on about how this season has been for both of David McFarlane's teams (technically I should be doing this after the Premiership season ...

David McFarlane’s Top Ten British Kids TV Shows They Should Bring Back

I used to love kids TV when I was younger - heck, I still like it now (SpongeBob SquarePants is very enjoyable, LazyTown is a work of genius) and I'm 25 this year. I was thinking about some of the stuff from the past that I'd like to see again, so ...

Hail To The King!

After I'd all but written off his chances of turning Newcastle around, King Kev is finally delivering the goods. Some excellent performances over the past few weeks have seen the Magpies begin to flirt with the top half of the table - which would have sounded pathetic at the start ...

New Kids On The Block Reunite!

I can't say that I particularly liked New Kids On The Block back in the day, but I'm sure some people will be excited to know that they have reunited. To celebrate this momentous occasion (!), the group appeared this morning on the NBC show Today. You might be happy to ...

BBC Watchdog Programme In Bullshit Shocker

I, David McFarlane, dislike the BBC intensely - I think this comes from having a big pile of bullshit delivered, courtesy of their news and current affairs output, on a fairly regular basis. On Monday night, their consumer rights programme Watchdog had a piece on Internet shopping and the dangers associated ...

Will The Last Person To Leave Britain Please Turn Off The Light

With the housing market in decline, banks bricking it that people may discover how bad their debts really are, jobs beind fairly difficult to get and Newcastle winning a game under Kevin Keegan it makes you wonder how long Joe Bloggs will be prepared to put up with this country. Possibly ...

Clickbooth Are An Embarrassment To Affiliate Marketing

I don't generally post about internet related shenanigans, but I'll make an exception in this case. Because certain people might get upset and threaten to sue your good friend David McFarlane, this is only my opinion - make up your own mind and remember that I'm not a lawyer (although ...
