Big Brother’s Jon is up for eviction this week. There is a high chance he will be voted out. This is a shame as he’s plainly intelligent, witty and an all round interesting chap. The producers evidently want shot of the bloke and have been editing the daily footage to show him as boring: Jon [...]

Spurred on by this post at Adactio, Stephen decided to do some of his own googlebombing. He’s now got nearly 300 comments on his post. Most are solid answers to the recent Doritos scratch card promo.
