How’s it going then treacle, alright?

Well stone me dead with an elastic band and a damp sponge; it’s almost 2010 innit?   I mean, blimey, where has the year gone eh?  Down the side of the sofa?  In the fluffy pocket of my occasional jacket; occasional because it offers some protection to sunnier climes but doesn’t get a look-in during the winter.  Too cold I tell ya, I’d catch a bleeding death!

Without further ado, I’d like to announce my predictions for the year twenty hundred and ten, that’s 2010 to all you digital folk out there!  Big up, respec’.

THE SATURATION OF ‘ACTIVITY’ GROUPS ON FACEBOOK.
Given the popularity of the ‘Rage Against The Machine for Christmas Number One’ Facebook group; I predict that every wannabe trendy activist in town will eventually attempt to start up their own pointless protest group on Facebook for media exposure and bragging rights down the Student Union.

GLOBAL WARMING A “FALSE ALARM“.
Scientists declare the international phenomenon of ‘Global Warming’ a “false alarm” after it is revealed that they have been using counterfeit fake thermometers purchased off of Ebay.

Secondary experiments investigating the average temperature of Spider monkey rectums confirmed that the instruments were inaccurate; rigorous tests eventually revealed that the liquid was not Mercury but actually Economy Cherryade from Sainsbury’s; the family favourite fizzy drink has seemingly duped us all into believing that the planet was warming!   You silly sausages!
