Kuwaii. Sounds almost like QI when you say it aloud, right? Unfortunately, this isn't a space of independent thought or delightful intellect. This is a fashion label's tenth anniversary party! It is an independent fashion label, but that means that, by design, it will attract people with the...
Electronic music sounds pretty benign when you consider each term without prejudice. We use electronic products everyday. We also enjoy the music of Simon and Garfunkel (in that order). But somehow when you add the word 'festival' to the end, it becomes populated with gigantic, imposing synths, noises...
Surreal. It's that term you've heard bleated out by your least favourite friend or relative describing a completely normal event. Well, good news for you, none of the people involved in this event will deign to be your friend and all of them are far more pretentious...
It's something you're easily able to pronounce as an English-speaking person. Speedy Gonzales feat. El Camino Cantina. You don't have to know what it means. So the pressure's off. Because this is essentially a business venture from an expanding restaurant and they need you to find joy in the...
Don't get your hopes up. That homeless guy who lives on your corner and busks with a panpipe-drum-harmonica-tambourine-cymbal-heroin-needle-triangle hasn't made it into the big leagues.

Summer. Barbecues, sweat, violently deluding yourself that the world isn't facing an environmental crisis...

Brisbane, it's time to take a stand. No, we don't mean against environmental destruction, political corruption, economic disparity nor the fact that Cher is still alive. No, we mean, let's take ourselves to The Stand! The Stand is Brisbane’s newest dessert and cocktail bar! The lavish pastel themed opening...
Don't worry. This isn't a one-person play about someone's tense childhood with their terse, distant parents. No, when they say raw, they mean the un-murdered living beings that will experience the pain of being ripped in half by your incisors and a slow death inside the gurgling...
'Gritty' and 'Pretty'. In no other manner has the complex Nazi-affiliated legacy of Chanel been better described. But we still prize Fanta and Volkswagens. Because they make us look good, they taste good and they make us feel like we're not having a midlife crisis, respectively. So, all you...
