A Frikkin Hashtag: #DescribeAFoodToAnAlien

We all know what milk is, what a hot dog tastes like and that you never dip fish fingers into custard. [Well unless you’re THAT guy!] But what if you were a creature from another planet and had just arrived on earth. Would it seem weird that people were drinking the stuff that came out of the dangly bits of a cow? […]

A Frikkin Hashtag: #2015WasTheYearThatIFinally

Another Wednesday, another Hashtag game… although this was not just another hashtag game. It was really interesting how this one played out… RSA Min of Warts [@Stevens947] played the co-host role and we even had a co-co-host in the incredible Kesha Tedder [@KeshaTedder] who i have an online ongoing “nemesis battle” with, and it was a whole lot of crazy fun. […]

Wanna play a game?

It's official. Today at 12 lunchtime South African time, @afrikkinhashtag launches the first official on the @HashtagRoundup app South African game with a bid to get South Africans in on this game phenomenon that has been sweeping the world. As i explain in more detail in my post 'Is it at a bird? Is it at a plane? NO! It’s @AFrikkinHashtag' the basic premise involves someone presenting a tag for the game, eg #DifferentEndingsToHorrorMovies was one [...]

Rugby World Cup 2015: Some thoughts from the Fish

Those who know me know i’m not the biggest fan of rugby. i will watch if the Springboks are playing and get a little more excited when it is the World Cup. Throw me into a Superbru game [although a round late so desperately just trying to catch up] and it comes a little more alive and meaningful. And after a couple of rounds of games, with the quarters for the most part locked up, [...]

Tandem Post: Meeting The Queen

Two steps forward and then one to the right. I stand and wait, watching... guarding... carefully listening to my own heavy breathing... I try to remain focused completely on the spaces around me, watching for you, zoning out of the chatter and in on any nearby movement that may be about to occur. This time you will not get by me. I am ready, alert, prepared for the inevitability of your attack. One thing in mind, [...]

Plants vs Zombies too!

Braaaaaaaaaains... You do not have to be a big zombie fan to appreciate the delightful Popcap 'Plants vs Zombies' tower defence game which is one of the most fun and addictive games i have ever played. To be absolutely honest it was one of the activities both the beautiful Val [tbV] and myself spent a huge amount of time on our honeymoon doing together and gave us immense times of laughter and appreciation and moment [...]

Saturday Round Up: The week that was: Episode 4: of Geeks & Wild Animals Eating Habits, a woman made of iron & a lot of mirrors

so recently i started another blog called 'The Weekly Mash [and Peace!]' which has a different theme for every day and i have decided that i am going to post the Saturday Round Up on my Irresistibly Fish blog so that subscribers can have access to the week that we have just vibed through... so if you missed any of these, pick the ones that look interesting, and enjoy... [the FRIDAY one feels like one [...]

the greatest cricket match of all time

i took a moment at lunchtime yesterday to step out of my body and just really take in what was happening in front of my eyes: a guy busy in mid phone conversation running in to bowl to a batsman trying to play shots with just his left hand on the bat [as he had broken his right hand recently in a sister-encouraged skateboarding incident gone horribly wrong] while South African Sevens rugby player Paul [...]

return of the japanese [may contain traces of silly]

so it's been a bit of a long while since i have watched japanese games shows and i figured there have to be some new ones around - for those of you who may have missed out on human tetris, binocular soccer/football and being-hit-in-the-nuts tongue twisters you can catch up on those over here and then on to here... so i did a little searching and i did find some new ones [to me anyways] [...]
