Top 10 Ways for Characters to Survive Horror Movies


1. Do not try to reveal the face behind a killer's mask.

2. If your car breaks down during the night, do not go to any nearby house looking for help. Call a friend and wait in the car.

3. Never ever hide in your cupboard.

4. Do not say: "Who's there?"

5. If you have seemingly killed your stalker/monster/alien/demon, never go back to see if it is really dead.

6. Do not read out loud from a demon/devil/spirit summoning book, even if you are just kidding around.

7. If the lights go out, do not go down into your basement.

8. Do not go near graves, tombs, crypts, mausoleums and any other place that houses the dead.

9. If appliances go on by themselves, you hear footsteps and doors start to open in your house - it is time to relocate!

10. Do not keep all your kitchen knives in one of those wooden, block holders. Chances are, you will end up on the wrong end of it.

Top 10 inventions we should have had by now


1. Time machines: Ah, we can think of many a Pandora’s Box that could be opened, or reopened... Where would we start?

2. Anti-gravity mechanisms: It’s not fair that only astronauts get to have all the fun. Imagine how useful this would be in a bar? No more stumbling and making an idiot of yourself.

3. Hologram images from TV: This would be awesome on so many levels, but imagine the sport!

4. Laser weapons (ahem, light sabers): Two words – Luke Skywalker

5. Android robots: Okay, we're getting closer, but we still don't have ones we can interact with, à la Kitt from Knight Rider.

6. Teleportation gadget: We could all say “Beam me up, Scotty” and see the world in a matter of hours.

Top 10 quotes from Julius Malema

1. July 2008: During President Zuma’s rape trial, Malema said Zuma would lead the country from prison if he was arrested.

2. September 2008: In lobbying for Jacob Zuma to become president: "Any force in our way we will eliminate. We are on a mission here. We will crush you. It doesn't matter who you are, even if you are in the ANC."

3. January 2009: Commenting on the woman who accused Jacob Zuma of rape: "When a woman didn't enjoy it, she leaves early in the morning. Those who had a nice time will wait until the sun comes out, request breakfast and ask for taxi money."

4. February 2009: In response to a dispute Minister Naledi Pandor was dealing with at the Tshwane University of Technology, Malema said she should “use her fake American accent to address our problems".

5. February 2009: He refuses to a public debate with his Democratic Alliance (DA) counterpart Khume Ramulifho, saying he will not discuss anything with "Helen Zille's garden boys".

6. May 2009: After DA leader Helen Zille took control of the Western Cape province, Malema calls her a “racist little girl” and says, “Zille has appointed an all male cabinet of useless people, the majority of whom are her boyfriends and concubines so that she can continue to sleep around with them, yet she claims to have the moral authority to question our President.”

7. October 2009: During the prosecution of police National Commissioner Jackie Selebi: “ In Jackie Selebi they want to prove a point they failed to prove in Zuma: that we [Africans] are corrupt, we like easy money, we like alcohol, we like women and we've got no skill."

8. April 2010: During a press conference, he kicks out BBC journalist Jonah Fisher, calling him a “bastard and a bloody agent".

9. April 2011: Malema calls on South Africans to vote so that Nelson Mandela remains healthy. "President Mandela is sick and you don't want to contribute to a worsening condition of Mandela by not voting ANC. President Mandela will never endure if the ANC is out of power."

10. August 2011: During a speech at the University of Johannesburg: “"Mandela was not released by De Klerk. Mandela was released by South Africa. De Klerk remains the enemy... We don't need De Klerk as a role model.”

Top 10 cartoon characters you wanted to be

1. Lion-O, Leader of the Thunder Cats: We wanted his strength and the clairvoyant power that he gets when holding his sword to his eyes, saying: “sight beyond sight”. Maybe then we'd know what women are really thinking.

2. Popeye: By simply eating spinach he gets stronger – no need for longs hours at the gym. And those muscles always made Olive Oyl swoon…

3. Inspector Gadget: Who wouldn't envy his cache of built-in gadgets like helicopter blades and super-strong, bionic limbs?

4. Optimus Prime: The leader of the Transformers is an all-around good guy: brave, wise, compassionate and he wants to improve the universe he lives in. All the ladies say, "Aaaah".

5. Conan: He's got a six pack worth envying, and we don’t mean beer.

6. He-Man: Prince Adam of Eternia becomes He-Man when he raises his Power Sword and says: “By the power of Grayskull”. Once the transformation is complete, he continues: “I have the power!” If only super strength was so easy for us all, especially when you're hung over.

7. Johnny Bravo: A modern-day Cassanova with an Elvis-like voice and beefy build… what’s not to like?

8. Throttle from the Biker Mice from Mars: The leader of the trio of bikers got us feeling all macho with his motto: "In this wild and woolly universe, there are three things you can count on: your brains, your bros and your bike!"

9. Donatello from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: As the scientist, inventor, engineer and genius, he is more the thinking man’s favourite. Donny prefers to use his brain power over brawn, which can come in handy when you're asked to do some DIY around the house.

10. Bart Simpson: This fast-talking kid managed to win everyone over with his sassy ways and bad attitude. He represented the bad-boy wannabe in all of us.
