Drowning in essays, that’s what. And yes that is Sylvia Plath’s face. As normal humans begin to make merry and hang twinkling Christmas lights from the rafters, students buckle and flail beneath the strain of essay word counts in the black shadow of looming exams.

While some are more famous than others I will never forget watching children’s TV presenters Zig and Zag on RTÉ and their jolly dose of festive insanity. A cherished childhood memory for me is the post […]

Heading into the Christmas season, there is nothing like a light-hearted anime to get the spirits going. One Punch Man is always my go-to anime for some laughs and it allows me to just unwind and watching something that doesn’t take itself too seriously.

Television has such a wide variety of the bizarre, the high concept and the downright crap that it’s easy to parody. We’ve gotten tons of laughs from movies, games and other TV shows which lampoon these ridiculous ideas by creating their own hilariously idiotic concepts.

Aside from the initial stories surrounding Disney’s return to polynesian culture and people for the movie I’d never really given Moana time.
