In the bootleg stakes, ‘Orange Is the New Black,’ Netflix’s new hot hit series about a women’s prison, is the second-most-pirated TV show in the world after HBO’s ‘Game Of Thrones’ according to CEG TEK a data service which tracks online piracy. Nothing, it seems, […]
A bit of a surprise on Monday, August 25, as Amazon purchased the video game streaming platform Twitch Interactive for $970 million in cash, as it broadcast to all and sundry that it is seriously ambitious about expanding its presence in gaming, according to Business […]
Perhaps all the stinging criticism from the likes of David Byrne, Thom Yorke and Neil Young finally wore them down. At any rate, for whatever reason, Spotify claim they are looking past plain old filthy lucre, as they seek to create new ways to bring […]
The term “socially awkward” is used a hell of a lot more times nowadays than it used to. That’s partly because we’re more aware of it as a behavioral condition; and also because it’s become a somewhat trendy term that doesn’t seem to be as […]
Spoilers ahead for those who don’t know anything about how TV works… So, Doctor Who is back! I was so excited during the run up to Peter Capaldi’s debut as the 12th incarnation (no arguments about that please… save them for the blogs!) of the […]
With advocates ranging from George W. Bush to David Beckham it would probably be easier to list the public figures that haven’t uploaded an ALS Association ice bucket challenge video and nomination onto Facebook. For those of you as ignorant on the subject as myself, […]
In spite of a lot of advice and constant media and online warnings, I’m not a regular sunscreen user. Sure, I’ll put some on the first beach day of the summer, to avoid uncomfortable sunburns that night; but watching tons of people obsess about sunscreen […]
The brothers Manning don’t only rock on the football field but thanks to this awesome music video they did for DirecTV they also are rocking the best advertisement I’ve seen this year. The two NFL quarterbacks Eli and Peyton Manning showcase their comedic chops in […]
MASSIVE SPOILERS AHEAD FOR THOSE WHO HAVE YET TO SEE WILFRED Wilfred has finally come to a close for me, and the truth about the charmingly contemptible but always loyal talking dog has been revealed. Reactions were mixed when it ended. In an age of […]
Relationships are tough enough without having to think about why people cheat on one another. Some people believe that humans are just not built to be monogamous, and some people believe that it’s either the man’s or the woman’s fault. Whatever it is, why people […]
Back in 1972, and right before Deep Throat broke, pornography was not a pretty affair. While the world was changing fast and taboos were ready to be shattered, making an adult film was the ultimate outsider move. There was no big money to be made, […]
Since July this year Foursquare has moved from an app that allows you to check-in to an app that “learns what you like and leads you to places you’ll love.” Which is great for travellers I say. So far I’ve been using it on my […]
Where there’s a gap in the market, there’s an enterprising soul to plug that gap. Lots of people would love a dog, but don’t have the time or space that a dog requires. So you can now rent a pooch. It’s like a canine timeshare […]
Whilst rooting around Kickstarter’s nether regions, I was fortunate enough to stumble upon Jonathan Evans and Brock LaBorde who are producing the Air Sex Championships documentary (think air guitar, only less picks and more dicks). Coming at you from the stage since 2008, the Air […]
On August 8, renowned porn star Christy Mack was brutally beaten up by her ex-boyfriend Jon “War Machine” Koppenhaver at her home in Las Vegas. Domestic violence is sadly a common occurrence for a lot of women out there, but we can only imagine how worse […]
The world seems a cold, dark place. The onslaught of scary information and hyper realistic/depressing viewpoints of the planet has made cynics of us all. As well, wily politicians have branded true scrutiny and intelligence as boorish and unpatriotic, so there’s a rift between folks […]
A spectacular game called The Last of Us, which I reviewed on February 14, 2014, here at BaDoink is back! And it’s better, although ‘better’ is, of course, a relative term at approximately $50 a crack. No doubt game manufacturers are simply out to maximize […]
You know how you’re scrolling through your contact list on your phone and much like your Facebook friend list, you have a bunch of names there and you have no idea who they are or how you met them? Aside from sending them a text […]
Mid-season TV ya’ll. If the sun and the beach isn’t doing it for you and you’re longing for a little bit of cooler weather (aka the air conditioning in your home), then crack open an ice cold beer and crank up the a/c and sit […]
I have an IPA fetish, methinks. I just looked up “fetish” on the online Merriam-Webster dictionary. It defines “fetish” per the following: “a need or desire for an object, body part, or activity for sexual excitement”. I just looked down at my Italian salami rod […]
