Donald Trump is a man of many talents; he pioneered the modern day comb over, he discovered that President Obama was actually a Senegalese street cleaner called Babacar Ousamane, causing him to resign from the Presidency and is rumoured to have been the man who killed Kim Jong-il, with a Chuck Norris style roundhouse.
But now, ‘The Donald,’ as he is known, has made his most audacious claim yet, he (and he alone) is personally responsible for the meteoric rise to fame of the 21st Century musical behemoth, Lady Gaga.

Awesome or Off-Putting is a weekly delve into cryptozoology, ufology, aliens, medical marvels, scientific wonders, secret societies, government conspiracies, cults, ghosts, EVPs, ancient artifacts, strange facts, odd sightings or just the plain unexplainable.
Here’s what we as a people know concretely about the moon; it’s a wicked awesome planet that thinks it’s better than Earth, but really it’s not.
Seriously, the moon is so dumb it can’t even maintain an atmosphere. That’s, like, planets 101. Shouldn’t have skipped that class, eh moon?
And of course, without an atmosphere there’s absolutely no chance of a civilization ever popping up. After all, when astronauts visited the moon back when America had a space program – they didn’t see anything, right? Well according to one former NASA employee – they actually did see some old abandoned buildings and what-not.

Ok, we’re sorry. Honestly, we can’t apologise enough to the legions of Muse fans that we might have accidentally upset with our throwaway comments. Recently, there have been a few choice accusations of calling Muse a poor carbon copy of Radiohead – you know that band that awkwardly reinvented their own sound from OK Computer to Kid A and that marketing campaign called In Rainbows?
Obviously we’re the fools. After a bit of research, have we realised that Muse aren’t influenced by Radiohead. God no, instead it’s all been a case of mistaken identity. S Club 7 are who inspire Muse on a daily basis!
Happy go lucky S Club 7 once released the feel good anthem ‘Reach For The Stars’ and after playing it on a loop continuously, Muse frontman Matt Bellamy has decided that he wants to perform a gig in space, going one better his pop counterparts.

Warning: Brace yourself for a sickening display of cinematic affection.
As far as movies based on lunar missions go Moon is up there with the best of them. With only one man and a computer voiced by Kevin Spacey, this is a film that blows the dust away from the sci-fi genre.

This week’s half full and half empty.
Folded:
Creased:
- Brüno (when cringeworthy stops being funny)
- Swine flu inevitability (had the bug yet? It’s getting to the ‘everyone knows somebody’ stage now)
- Guys who refer to their wives or girlfriends as ‘er indoors’ (they probably say ‘aye’ a lot too)
- Crunches (the most miserable sounding exercise ever. Going on the beach? Just wear a vest or something)
- Waiting for autumn video games (you’d never know it because of the damn unpredictable weather but we’ve only just started August)
Intelligent sci-fi is for gimps.
This film could have been about going mad on an island, a mountain or even the comfort of your own home… but no, they had to take you to the Moon.
Sam Rockwell comes into shot, and soon you find yourself wishing that you were somewhere else. Sam, also named Sam in the film is an astronaut under a three-year mining contract that lands him on the surface of the moon. Satellite communications are shot and he can only receive transmissions via tape.

There are times in life when things look bad, when you don't see the point in much and when, well, you just downright hate things.
Then something happens that picks you up, makes you happy again and fills you with a beaming smile that somehow manages to envelop your entire body, filling your whole physical presence with joy from head to toe.
Take, for example, when a UFO sighting was reported somewhere in Wales, and this police radio conversation was conducted:
Control: "Alpha Zulu 20, this object in the sky, did anyone have a look at it?"
Officer: "Yes, it's the Moon. Over."
hecklerspray loves you, Wales.
