Question of the week: “I ‘stalk’ my wife…”


Q: Derrick L. Mansfield asks: “Why don’t I trust my wife? Every time she leaves home, I feel like I have to trail her. I’ve even skipped work a day or two so’s I can keep an eye on here without her knowing. I know it’s irrational but I just can’t help myself. She thinks we have the perfect relationship…”


A: Burrel says: “First off, who are you fooling Derrick? She doesn’t think you have the perfect relationship. Why do guys always underestimate their women. I don’t know what triggered this insecurity you have, but I’ll keep it real Derrick, you need some help man. Look at you, like a second rate CIA agent dogging her footsteps! If you can’t get things under control, talk to her honestly about what’s on your mind, and get back on track, then I suggest you get some professional help. If you don’t Derrick you’re firmly on a path towards emotional self-destruction.”


A: Betsy K. Oklahoma says: “I had a wildly jealous husband and he made my life a misery. He followed me constantly, sat outside my workplace, called all my friends–even questioned my boss one day. It destroyed our relationship, and eventually destroyed him too. Today he’s a shadow of the man I met, just holding it together. My advice Derrick is understand that this is your problem, not hers. Speak to someone you can trust. Tackle this now before it kills your marriage too.”


A: Joe K. St Louis says: “Whoa man. Cool it. Rather than stalk your missus you should probably be stalking yourself–find out who the heck you are.”


A: Phillip J. Missouri says: “I bet she did something pretty bad to trigger this Derrick. Can’t imagine you just getting a bee under your bonnet otherwise. If she did cheat on you once, then I don’t blame you for trying to catch her out a second time. Still you gotta ask is she worth it? The worry, the missing work, docked pay and all that. Could be time to move on bro.”

Moonfall movie review

 Moonfall movie review: Halle Berry, Patrick Wilson hopelessly surrender to Roland Emmerich's dated, irresponsible vision Ploys that felt smart in our teens look so incredibly silly today, that it is a miracle that Moonfall has managed a theatrical release, instead of being dumped in a corner of a streaming website. It has only been a couple of months since Hollywood hit us with the polarising Don’t Look Up, where director Adam McKay parodied Hollywood’s end-of-the-world movies about a meteor heading towards planet earth, only to be met with denial and apathy. There is a segment in the film where while the scientists are going around trying to warn the people about the impending Armageddon, Hollywood makes a film on it called Total Devastation, starring [fictitious] Hollywood heartthrob Devin Peters [played sportingly by Chris Evans, who gives interviews from behind his massive sunglasses, using zero modulation in his voice]. I would be willing to bet half my fortune that Total Dev

Aamir Khan's daughter Ira Khan recently opened

Aamir Khan's daughter Ira Khan recently opened up on dealing with anxiety attacks. She wrote a lengthy post talking about her anxiety and how she is improving her health with this one hack. Bollywood actor Aamir Khan's daughter Ira Khan recently disclosed that she has been suffering from anxiety attacks through a post on social media. The star kid later shared another post and revealed what helped her deal with the situation after the attack. She wrote, “1 thing that helped my anxiety. I used body scrub for the first time in my life. I only managed to shower after the palpitations had passed but I wasn't feeling settled and I was worried they would be back. It took a while to figure out what I felt like doing and then actually get up to do it. However, eventually - I took a relatively long shower (mine usually last only 3-5 minutes) with body scrub. Why I think the body scrub helped me is because it made for a heightened tactile (sense organs - touch) experience." She

Stray review

I have walked around decaying cyberpunk cities such as these many times before, with their omnipresent neon signage and filthy streets, their grimy verticality. Usually I am expected to shoot someone. But this time, I’m slinking around the fluorescent-lit slums of the future as a skinny wee ginger cat, scaling rusty pipes, squeezing through barely-open windows and pattering across corrugated-iron roofs. The robots who have lived here on their own for untold decades have never seen anything like me before, but still, they feel compelled to pet me when I rub up against their spindly metal legs. I am a wild, mysterious, perfect thing in a broken world. Stray is an excellent example of how a change of perspective can enliven a fictional setting to which we’ve become habituated. Post-apocalyptic narratives have been done to death lately, but this one feels interesting because we experience it from such an unusual point of view. Accompanied by a drone, which acts as a translator between the
