Well it makes me laugh.

I'm an avid watcher of programmes that basically make people look like dicks... Jeremy Kyle, Embarrassing Bodies, Bizarre ER, you name it, I'll watch it.

Bit of an odd picture.


So when I saw Diagnosis Live from the Clinic was on, it was a recipe for viewing success! I know a common quote has been 'if you're so embarrassed, what the hell are you doing showing the nation on TV'! Which I agree on to an extent - but obviously with Embarrassing Bodies they get any surgery or procedures paid for. But this Diagnosis Live from the Clinic just features random people exposing themselves on webcam! Slightly odd to see men and women showing us willies and boobs when you turn on the TV, imagine innocent old grandparents casually flicking through the channels before bed and being confronted with genital warts.

Anyway, one of the women involved was casually discussing her fishy discharge to Dr Christian and Dr Dawn, and to the rest of the general public, and when the doctors mentioned going to visit a GP she shyed away! What! How does that make any sense?
Get some logic woman!
Even the doctors reassured her and told her not to be embarrassed about seeing her GP because they will have seen it all before. To be honest after watching the last couple of series of Embarrassing Bodies I've also seen it all before. I think I could be a trainee GP from the knowledge I've acquired.

Although on a serious note, after watching the dangers of skin cancer especially concerning moles, I'm booking a visit to the doctors tomorrow as I am COVERED! I'd also like to see if the weird coloured mole always referred to as 'Cancer Mole' is indeed a cancer mole. Removing them all shouldn't be too big an issue surely?

A round up of what is in my head.

It has probably been a bit too long since I last blogged. Much too long infact, as I did say in my first post this was the sole way I was going to keep my brain alive and well for University. Unfortunately, I currently feel like I didn't achieve any A Levels, and probably not even passes in my Year 9 SATS. However, here we are and let us try and improve my vocab and lexis before I enter University a mute loser who can only grunt and occasionally say Facebook.

A pink cat.


These cute little kittens were found in a concrete making factory. Apparently a red pigment caused their fur to turn pink - I don't know if this is cruel but I WANT A PINK CAT LIKE THIS ONE! Maybe we should breed cats in this way from now on, maybe we could create an Army of multi-coloured cats to scare other countries away.

Overweight man
Fat tax on fat people

Fatties in Arizona who are claiming welfare benefits will now face paying a £50 fine if they do not follow a diet plan set by their GP. Personally I think it is a great idea - there are too many people taking the easy way out on life by claiming benefits by being overweight and if they aren't doing anything about it - THEN YOU PAY! It isn't fair on people who look after their health and weight and work hard.

Facebook page
Israeli parents name their child 'Like'
It is quite incredible what their parents call their children. I've read stories before about children called 'Walt Disney Christmas', and 'Ikea'. How odd. My mum also just told me when she was listening to the radio earlier, the parents of a newborn child let their other child pick the middle name - the poor baba is now stuck with 'Dinosaur' as a middle name thanks to the parents 'great idea'. I was thinking about names for future children today - it is pretty much a minefield as every bloody word in the English Language now has a sexual/rude/insulting connotation these days. I was even put off of 'Megan' or 'Meg' because I thought people would oh-so-cleverly nickname her 'Smegan' or something similar. Anyway, the father of 'Like' from Israel was really impressed  -

"When I posted her picture and name on Facebook I got 40 'likes'," he told the newspaper.
"Considering that I have only a little more than 100 friends on the network that's a lot."

Just genius.
