Media morals - the oxymoron
2007-04-20 17:57:36
I’m sorry guys but, despite trying for something lighthearted, there is only one thing on my mind.       © %FIRST - get over to the plooptionary for more glass half empty content.


Men and Jewellery - what’s that about?

I’ll be whacking out another ‘open source’ ploop science graph tomorrow (basically everyone who comments comes up with better ideas than me!).  In the meantime: © %FIRST - get over to the plooptionary for more glass half empty content.

ploop TV - no one cares like Blair
2007-04-23 10:26:27
Exhasperated that not one single member of the British public cares about people as much as him, Tony Blair calls in some favours from his Islington TV buddies. A meeting is called in a ball-breakingly fashionable cave carved from bat shit underneath Battersea Power station.  In between far too many uses of the phrases, “you [...]


Hilarious restaurant jokes
2007-04-22 21:20:01
Went out for lunch today.  Quite a top end restaurant - with very low quality guests.  They were low quality for this reason: they didn’t think of their audience before cracking jokes.  That worries me.  It’s arrogant joking.  It’s thoughtless joking.  In fact, if I were the waiter I’d have simply driven the steak knife [...]

ploopology - for anyone stupid enough to believe their stars!
2007-04-26 10:00:33
We love astrology.  Nothing makes more sense than your destiny being dictated by stars so far away that, by the time you see them, they’ve burned out.  It makes perfect sense.  I also adore astrologers.  I love their cute ‘mystical’ names, their incredibly accurate and precise copy, and the way they make huge amounts of [...]

plooptionary - absurd phrases idiots use in business (12 of 100)
2007-04-25 18:48:04
  Plooptionary – utter bollocks from the mouths of people with nothing useful to say.  Today’s word combines everything that makes me want to go out and torture animals.  It’s a word that’s been hijacked and royally fisted by internal communications consultants. Weary and sick of life, the word “cascade” has lost its associations with water and is [...]

I’m working today yet have spent the morning messing around on the blog.  Not good for my business but a very productive morning for the blog!  It seems the instigator blog have been having similar thoughts regarding productivity and are looking for other people’s thoughts.  I’d certainly like to know what other regualar bloggers think on [...]

Smugness - open source
2007-04-24 10:58:37
I’ve being trying to nail smugness myself and there are too many variations.  Take the graph below - what would you make A and B to arrive at smugness?  I started with A=religious zeal and B=narrow mindedness but it doesn’t feel quite right.  Answers in the comments please - what are A and B?   [...]

It’s simple - eat less and exercise more.  That’s weight loss in a nutshell.  But people are bone idle, they want to lose weight quickly without taking their stubby little fingers off the remote control.  Enter the fad diets.  By fads I mean the Atkins diet, the east coast, the west coast, the bondi beach, [...]

Proof, in the form of two good reviews landing in the ploop inbox, that the world is not entirely full of idiots has half filled me with cheer this morning.  We all know we’re the last of a dying breed - the cynics, the lovers of words, truth, morality and the arts.  But we can [...]

As well known mystics, we’ve taken it upon ourselves to offer some of our star spotting wisdom with readers here.  Not much sharing you understand - that would be commercial suicide - just the odd bit.  Those wanting the full, bare arsed truth about their desparate little lives will need email me at ploop at [...]

Nasty God Squad TV - aren’t they supposed to be Christians?

Just when you start feeling comfortable in your own cosmopolitan bubble - you know the score … you don’t believe there are too many racists or homophobics around, you’ve convinced youself that the far right must be “joking” with their bullshit, you are confident that people only watch American Idol to be ironic - this [...]

I’d like to let readers and commenters here know that there is someone silly enough in the world of publishing to think the ploop science graphs could be make into a book. Yep, I’ve had an approach from someone who clearly enjoyed themselves too much in the 60s who thinks the graphs could well make either [...]

 We’ve received a graph from Dolores which I’m sure readers will agree is a fine addition to the plooptionary. Dolores broke all the rules by insisting that the graph be posted with supplementary notes.  Having being through the correct referral channels and accepting that Dolores might be behind the power curve on this one … we’ve [...]

ploopology - stealing hard cash from the vulnerable
2007-05-08 14:51:40
We hate astrologers.  Every single one of the money grabbing charlatans oozes round the globe stealing hard earned money from the vulnerable.  Frankly they’re scum.  So ploop’s joining them - after all, there’s money to be made.  Gradually we’ll be providing bespoke ‘executive stars’ - quick, at a glance, star readings for business men with [...]
