Are You A Minecraft Person Or A LEGO Person?
Are you a Minecraft person or a LEGO person? Both involve small rectangular things, mild obsession, and at least one meltdown when something gets destroyed. Throw in LEGO Minecraft sets and a neurodivergent brain that loves both structure and chaos,…
The November Armistice: A Ceasefire in the Christmas Wars
Britain’s annual ‘too early for Christmas?’ row gets a peace plan. Meet the November Armistice: a light-on, tree-off truce that respects Remembrance, permits cosy pre-heating, and saves the big sparkle for December—while, obviously, Mariah Carey is already defrosting on the…
untypicable Turns One: Still No Idea What We’re Doing, but Apparently the Terrible Twos Are Coming
untypicable turns one this week, and like all one-year-olds, we’re still confused, sticky, and occasionally brilliant by accident. Here’s what we’ve learned about writing, patience, and pretending to have a plan — on a Sunday, no less.
October 31st: The Annual British Siege
A cultural comparison of Halloween etiquette — one nation turns its entire suburb into a theatrical production, the other treats it as an unscheduled home invasion.
untypicable: Not What You Were Thinking…
Welcome to untypicable, the off-beat blog where irreverent humour and fascinatingly pointless musings collide. If you’re looking for articles that go absolutely nowhere but entertain you along the way, you’ve come to the right place.
Untypicable doesn’t believe in sticking to one topic—why limit ourselves? From mind-boggling hypotheticals to surprisingly deep dives into the trivial, we’re here to embrace the wonderfully random and, let’s be honest, the gloriously unnecessary. Think of us as your go-to source for all things… well, nothing in particular.
Our (Un)Mission
Here’s the thing: untypicable isn’t about “making a difference” or “changing lives”—unless, of course, we accidentally manage to do that while we’re wasting time. Our (un)mission is to bring you off-kilter stories, bizarre observations, and humour that doesn’t try too hard. It’s all about taking a break from the seriousness of the world and celebrating the kind of things that make you laugh, scratch your head, or say, “I didn’t need to know that, but I’m glad I do.”
What You’ll Find
- Articles About Nothing (and Everything) – Our posts are as unpredictable as they come. We might explore the secret lives of houseplants one day and the existential crisis of socks lost in the laundry the next. You’ve been warned.
- Irreverent Humour – Expect sarcasm, playful jabs, and humour that’s not afraid to poke a bit of fun—sometimes at ourselves.
- Thoughts That Go Nowhere – From conspiracy theories about coffee mugs to musings on why pigeons always seem so judgmental, we love the strange, pointless questions just begging for answers.
- No Politics – We won’t be discussing politics here. We may discuss politicians if we find them to be funny or downright stupid, but not their politics.
Why untypicable?
Because sometimes you need a place to unwind with content that has absolutely no agenda. untypicable is here to give you that mental break from a world that’s a little too obsessed with being “productive.” We’re here for the people who find joy in the little absurdities of life, who laugh at the ridiculous, and who appreciate the humour in a well-timed tangent.
So grab your favourite snacks, settle in, and prepare to learn absolutely nothing useful. untypicable: your ultimate destination for delightful nonsense.
Even our name is a play on a mis-spelling… and our logo is our take on a Heath Robinson design.
