Accept or Deny?
Folded
- Space, the Final Fron- oh, you’ve probably seen the timelapse video from the International Space Station already but just in case you haven’t, here it is again.
- Ferenc Puskas – You’ve probably not heard of him unless you’re into football (if you’re not, jump to the next item) but if you’re a fan of the great man then you might appreciate this article from The Guardian which proves he was a bloody nice chap too.
- Zombies – If you believe they’re a possibility then you’re an idiot but, in fairness, there is a shop that will cater to your warped delusions.
- Minimalism and superheroes usually go together like Piers Morgan and a sense of perspective but fortunately, this humorous print shows that when it’s done right, it’s ace.
Creased
- Demi Moore is divorcing Ashton Kutcher! Oh no! Now they’re going to be in the papers all the time when it’s blatantly obvious that no-one cares.
- Sepp Blatter – “I’m sorry I’m a racist but I’m staying because I have to work on eradicating ethnic minorities from the game.” That’s obviously not a direct quote but… it could have been.
- David Cameron - Can’t run the country, can’t do an Australian accent, can’t look like anything other than melted playdoh even when stuffed into a dinner suit. Is there anything the man can do? Well, obviously there is but he’s still got a piss-poor Aussie accent.
- Water Bottle Cannon – This is only creased because we happened to imagine what it must be like to take a blast from this to the stomach. Still, it knocks down walls. Respect your water cooler!
- The History of Emoticons – When words aren’t good enough, why not draw a little picture to express how you feel?
Due to the rapidly expanding world we live in, there are occasions when we have to get our heads round so called “exciting” terms that are cooked up by balding PR men in their fifties. We’re all enduring the stranglehold of social media which is basically a tool for people to show off an impressive number of virtual friends who they rarely ever speak to in the real world.
Now we’re plagued by flash mobs. These are surprise events that are created by hilarious individuals who think it’s amusing to perform stupid activities whilst you go around your day to day business.
Doing star jumps on a busy train during the home commute? LOL! That won’t irritate anyone to the point of violence! As you’ll probably agree, dances and other strange acts are rapidly approaching a saturation point of dire inanity. How about spicing things up by causing an organised panic? On paper it seems like a good idea, but in true British tradition, it turns into a shambles.

Zombies, zombies, fucking zombies. We really should be sick of the sight of them. The most annoying thing about them is that regardless of how many zombie films come along people keep on making more on them.
On the flipside every so often someone comes up with a decent take on them, and most of the awful films don’t make it as far as the cinema. They have a much better hit rate than vampires and with good reason.
Zombies may have no emotions or feelings but that’s a hell of a lot more appealing than being angst-ridden self-obsessed immortal teenagers. Read More >>>
Death and zombies, death and zombies – go together like a horse and carriage. Or so Frank Sinatra did not sing, ever.
But he should have done, because they are a great combination.
Like fish and chips or Madonna and the chronic desire to plunge nails into your eyes.
Of course, that’s because zombies are actually dead, but still somehow manage to die again and deal out death.
(Before you start, we know they are actually ‘undead’).

Zombies – got to love them. Seeing their slow, shiftless bodies somehow catch up with and eat the brains of their unwitting, fully agile victims never ceases to amaze.
Their grotesque faces, their cold, emotionless eyes and laboured movements – it’s just like watching X Factor, only remarkably not as popular.
We cannot get enough of them. Maybe we secretly want to be one.

An idyllic wood cabin, surrounded by snow in the Norwegian mountains – sounds like the perfect postcard.
Add to that a group of ravaging, recently resurrected Nazi zombies, tearing students’ limbs off, painting the vast landscape a gloriously unsettling red and you’ve got Dead Snow.

Tommy Wirkola is a new name for the horror genre but his audacious, hilarious and blood-splattered Norwegian Nazi zombie movie Dead Snow, shows that this is one director who has done his homework.
If the film isn’t making you laugh, cutting something in half or having intestine pulled out of one of the characters, then its winking at the audience with some reference to some of the best-loved horror masterpieces.
Tommy Wirkola has exclusively talked to us about his top five horror movies of all time, and as a list of definitive titles to watch, it’s hard to argue with. Enjoy…
