So those burly and brawny men are about to run around the football field and best of all, there are going to be some incredibly expensive ads. That’s right: this weekend it’s Super Bowl Sunday! While bringing glamour to football is a challenge, here are a few speaking points to enable you to blend in while [...]

In an age of digital gift giving, sending an electronic gift has the ability to feel intangible and impersonal—kinda of like a visit to the proctologist without the aid of at least a water-based lubricant. An email or a gift voucher code just doesn’t have the same cachet or mystique of a gift-wrapped box topped [...]

The most civilised of summer sports is croquet, which, incidentally, is yet to be desecrated by hipsters then bogans respectively for sheer impracticality of carting metal hoops around on a fixie and planting them into the halfpipe at a local skate park.

In what can only be described as ‘cute overload’, animator Kirsten Lepore brings this sickeningly saccharine video, “To Give a Present” for Yo Gabba Gabba. Admittedly it’s targeted at children, so perhaps I’ve had little too much brandy custard for breakfast? ‘Tis [...]

There is no greater revenge than the self-satisfaction that comes from knowing that someone you detest is stupid. Have you ever stalked a former lover/friend/colleague/someone you dated’s social media presence only to get out your giant and virtual red pen and have a field day picking out their flaws? It’s like learning that they wear [...]

Have you ever found yourself alone in a dive bar, head slumped over the sticky beer mat, crying into your martini to “I’ve Never Been to Me” by Charlene? Err … no, neither have we. Well, if you have you were doing it all wrong. Any discerning pantywaist knows that the ballad of drag queens [...]

For some, dressing sharply comes naturally, whereas for others, simply getting into something other than a pair of tracksuit pants can be quite a challenge. Fits, fabrics and pairing colours can seem like the most daunting of tasks, but there’s no shame in that and the new men’s online stylist, One Stop Stylist agrees. A lot of men [...]
