This Week… All By Myself
"If mass media, social isolation in the suburbs, alienating workplaces and long car commutes create a bunker mentality, the Internet does the opposite." – Alex Steffen
"I'm ridin' solo, I'm ridin' solo, solo." – Jason Derulo

Well, who'd of thought it? The end of the world is here and it's far less exciting than we'd anticipated. We didn't get destroyed by a bloody big asteroid or blown up by a nuclear bomb. No… 2020 had a very special kind of apocalypse planned for mankind, death by neverending skype calls, a lack of physical contact and reruns of Mrs Browns Boys on the television. What a way to go?!
We are all trying to be optimistic but in all honesty at this stage we have to ask, is life even worth living without Eastenders?
One highlight of this utter chaos is that planet earth is breathing one big sigh of relief, animals are happy, the air is fresh and us lot haven't had the chance to f**k anything up for a while (apart from BONO). There's dolphins in Venice, reduced CO2 and less pollution. Perhaps this might be the reset the earth so greatly needed…
Anyway, as you might imagine with little else to do, the internet has gone into overdrive so here are some of our best bits from the week…
