TwitterFacebook

With Microsoft seemingly uninterested in releasing a new 2-in-1 Surface Pro, other PC makers like HP are stepping in to fill the void.

HP’s Elite x2 1012 G2 (yeah it’s a mouthful) is the latest Surface Pro clone and it packs quite the punch.

Stephen Colbert has a brilliant explanation of why Donald Trump fired James Comey

TwitterFacebook

The big news everyone is talking about is Donald Trump firing FBI director James Comey. 

It happened just 10 minutes before Stephen Colbert taped The Late Show, but the late night host had plenty of rounds to fire. 

“That shows no gratitude at all. Did Trump forget about the Hillary emails that Comey talked about?” Colbert said. 

Trump said in a letter that Comey was “not able to effectively lead the Bureau” after the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails, but Colbert thinks he has a more plausible explanation. 

“I think he was fired because Comey couldn’t guess the name Rumpelstiltskin,” he joked. Read more…

New Zealand’s Prime Minister doesn’t find John Oliver’s Kiwi jokes very funny :(

TwitterFacebook

We’d consider being made fun of by John Oliver on Last Week Tonight an honour, but of course, there are people who don’t quite appreciate the joke.

Like New Zealand’s Prime Minister and creator of the world’s most disgusting pizza, Bill English. Turns out he does not think the British comedian is that funny, what with his impression of a New Zealand accent and political party criticism.
