How do you like your tremendomeatatarianism? Rear, medium?

Posted by John Lampard on Monday, 8 March, 2010 to the trends subset

Could you print me out bowl of spaghetti bolognaise for lunch?

Posted by John Lampard on Thursday, 18 February, 2010 to the technology subset

The caveman lifestyle, in Mr. Durant’s interpretation, involves eating large quantities of meat and then fasting between meals to approximate the lean times that his distant ancestors faced between hunts. Vegetables and fruit are fine, but [...]
