Warning – the following article contains nudity, swearing and numerous references to bodily fluids. If you are under the age of 18 (or are under 18 but already a parent, in which case congratulations for being able to read at all), then you might not want to read on unless an adult is present.

So, here we are. It’s been a blast for the last few years but unfortunately with the economy picking up and Baby X yet to come to terms with the whole ‘don’t try to eat anything bigger than your head’ issue, I find myself with a whole pile of important things to do and not [...]
The infinite monkey theorem states that a monkey hitting keys at random on a typewriter keyboard for an infinite amount of time will almost surely type a given text, such as the complete works of Shakespeare. A now-extinct variant of the same theorem said that, “if you give a million monkeys a million typewriters, eventually [...]
Most of us like to think of ourselves as fundamentally honest and decent people. However, an awful lot of people are lying, cheating criminal scumbags who deserve to be forcibly sterilised so that their atrocious genes no longer form an oily slick upon our already shallow gene pool.

They believe in bringing [...]
A lthough you probably don’t think that the Jersey law of contracts is very interesting, it’s a bit like one of those discreet ‘clubs’ lurking in the darker corners of Amsterdam – because behind a boring-looking façade lurks i) a smoky, confusing haze and ii) a surprisingly large hole. This is because, unlike most European [...]
I reckon that the vampire squid is the best evidence yet that either i) God doesn’t exist or ii) God, like the rest of us, occasionally wakes up in a bad mood and decides to take it out on someone else. The difference being that instead of reducing a hapless employee to a quivering wreck [...]
As Advocate X has spent the last couple of weeks single-handedly saving the global banking industry from total annihilation (and in an entirely unconnected coincidence, wondering what to do with the money he made from shorting certain shares), we thought we’d give you THE FIRST PART OF a selection of the caped crusader’s best bits [...]
