But they felt they had to drop Gemma Ward into the middle of it… perhaps to give it a Western feel… bizarre…

Look at this beauty:

New in Japan - the N700 Bullet Train, powering along at half the speed of a Boeing. 1300 passengers. Can do Osaka to Tokyo, in just under 2.5 hours. The entire train is a free WIFI hotspot. Leans into turns. And looks AMAZING!

Here are a few photos some girl’s blog, which I got to from linking from another blog, which I got to from linking from another blog, which I got to… you get the idea…

Basically, she takes photos of herself in various outfits, and blogs them.

I think you ladies should do this more often.

I’m giving her “Spirit Of The Net Award”, as decided by Evan Lucas, for this week.

For the super rich, a 4kt Gold & Diamonds Macbook Pro.

Miss Russia 2007, for Miss World 2007.

These things have gotten out of control. Some cyclist or other wore one once, then everyone thought it was a good idea. While purportedly worn to show support for good causes… people now wear these things to tell the world X, Y or Z about themselves: that they’re a geek, or that they support a particular football team, or that the like the colour green. Ridiculous stuff.

A fashion item it’s not. If you’ve got one of these around your wrist, do us all a favour, don’t cut off the bracelet - cut your wrist!

Wearing clothes because they happen to have a custom-made iPod pocket is pretty dumb. Whatever happened to normal pockets for holding normal things? It’s not as if iPods come in one fixed size for one fixed pocket size anyway, Apple’s selling-out-to-the-masses ensured there’s now about 10 different dimensional sizes. Nor is it like the things are so heavy that pockets need special stitching or reinforcement. And BROTHER, these cars with the iPod dock, what are they thinking!? You’d hope your car would last longer than your iPod, right? And with iPods on average (from personal experience) lasting a total of 366 days before they die, you’ll have gone through at least three before you plan on selling-on your wheels.

Get WITH it! Music players, wallets, mobile phones, cash and coins should fit into YOUR life, you don’t mould your life, or change your clothing, to fit with THEM!

I really really really hate those little dangling devices that people who should be old-enough-to-know-better have hanging off their mobile phones. I can handle kids having them, even I had a childhood - but 50 year old French women should know better - and moreso because she’s my neighbour! I saw her today with something resembling these. I nearly topped her!

I just SO dare you girls to wear this… first one to post a photo of themselves with this kit on gets a 100 bucks!

Latest winter styles just in from Converse showing the uniform-shoe-of-choice-for-hipsters-everywhere are taking a few new angles.

I’m not much impressed.

I know she’s a graphic-bloody-design. But I’d so marry her if only she were real.

Internet co-residents Shot Dead In The Head win the Geek Chic of The Week Prize with their Apple Mac Pear T-Shirt.

Are we glorifying Mac here fellas, or taking the piss?

(You can comment on this, but only if you have something vaguely interesting to say.)

I’m having one of my days today, I want things my way, bad hair day, no comments please. Thank you.

“Contestants must photograph themselves for their MySpace default profile picture, and it’s a neck and neck race to do it. Now the hipsters are aiming to make these pictures look spontaneous yet well composed. Exactly, they want this pic to show their good side, ideally from the point-of-view of some anonymous third party photographer.”

Die Hipsters Die!
