PGXVIII: Get Well Soon, Boss

Why does John Hartson have a job as a football pundit, Yeah? He’s a bloody eejit.
And we’re leaving Payne alone for liking Bryan Adams because I saw him twice when I was a teenager. I mean, he hasn’t released a decent album since 1992 – and I don’t think I’ve played anything by [...]

Fish: Saratoga

PGXV: Good night, Frau Blücher

I quoted this movie (although not that line) in my English Lit final exam, actually during a very salient discussion of the differences between staging in the book versus film. There’s no creation scene in the book: no electronics; no switches; nothing. Life is just created off-screen, as it were, in a manner [...]

PGXIV: Silicon

No time today for any chit-chat.
Have at it…

Something Borrowed: Chapter 14

Final chapter, Hot make-up sex.
Rating: X. NSFW. Hot.

PGXIII: We Don’t Need No Triskadecaphobia

It’s hard for me to end a thread called “Dev is a GOD” but, needs must!
Despite being a God, a platonic lobster and Snoopy (all good things, you would imagine, which point to me being kinda nice and fluffy and sweet), you really, really don’t want me to start in on homeopathy. You thought [...]
