After 50 years of convincing girls that thin is in, Mattel is trying a new approach to Barbie; you'll soon be able to buy the iconic doll in a variety of different body shapes - including 'curvy'. Additionally, Barbie will also be available in a number of new "empowering and imaginative" roles - a spy, president, vice-president, fashionista, and - get this - game developer. 

What other Barbies might Mattel be considering in a bid to bring the brand up to date? Digitiser2000 has speculated so that you don't have to.

"Welcome to the world. Society is mandatory. Drop out, refuse to conform, and you will be punished." 

Society seemingly benefits us all, but certainly benefits some of us more than others. The only way to ensure this structure perpetuates is through control, and society controls us in ways that are both overt and covert. 

Rules, laws - these are obvious. But then society exerts its influence on us in ways that are more subtle, insidious, covert.

We're told about doing things for "The good of our society" (or country...). Well, whose society is it? We're never handed a choice to opt out... though given that society is everywhere, where would we go anyway? Society gives us roads, gives us electricity, gives us television, and Sainsburys and Star Wars and a justice system. If you want all that, you have to be a part of it. 

​Alas, society is also hugely, intrinsically, unfair, and has been manipulated to primarily benefit a tiny elite - and from birth we are brainwashed into going along with this conspiracy.

"Grow up" we're told from a very young age. And so, grow up we do, in the belief that it's the right thing to do, and that one day - if we're very grown up - we too might be able to spend most of our lives on a yacht in the Caribbean.

Frankly, it's rubbish. So thank Bushnell for video games.

Greetings, dicks. My name is Doctor Ashley Tagg. My closest friends call me Ash, while my students refer to me as Doctor Hashtag, although I don't understand why. And I certainly don't find it funny. I have six GCSEs, and I own a car.

​I work for the Institute of Video Game Recruitment, or some shit like that, and I come to you today seeking applicants for the post of Next Big Platform Game Star.

​Do you have what it takes to become an icon of gaming? Please answer the following questions honestly, and to the best of your ability, so that we are able to make a fair and accurate decision. I thank you with all my heart.

Hello, everyone. Mr T here. You possibly remember me from TV's 'The Eh? Team' - a short-lived show I was in about a group of partially-deaf mercenaries. 

Anyway, enough bragging about my glittering career! It's time now for me to test your knowledge on my favourite topic - bins! Click onwards for my very own Big Bin Quiz! It won't be easy - but make sure you do your best to stay away from my wrong bin answers! LOL!
