KFC came to Trinidad back in 1973, opening its first outlet in St. James that still stands today (that’s right, even back then St. James had everything). With over 40 years of oil in de coil that makes it the oldest international restaurant franchise in Trinidad and older than most people who reading this. We children of the ‘80s and ‘90s grew up on it, always looking forward to the odd Friday or birthday when our parents would buy us a Munch Pack and we’d…
Well they surely took their cool time with this one. God knows everyone wanted the option to be able to edit your Instagram captions since you uploaded your very first photo. True Selfie addicts know that after taking the perfect bathroom pic, adding several filters and effects, the icing on the cake is the ideal caption complete with that ever so crucial emoji.

This innate overreaction manifests itself in all aspects of our lives, including acts of protest. Case in point, the woman who camp outside HDC head office because…
As Trinis we are very accustomed to the concept (and practice) of hornin’! It is the fodder for soca and kaiso annually, the cause of heated debate at work, the explanation for why your little sister’s hair has a markedly different texture to yours etc. etc . With celebrity couples dropping like flies in 2014, see Nick and Mariah, Jason Derulo and Jordin Sparks, Wiz and Amber & yuh neighbour horning her husband breathless daily, SCORCH has decided to explore infidelity and we came up…
So you survived the stress and worries of “The Fappening” and you saying to yourself yuh GT. For those of you living under The Rock of Gibraltar and don’t know about “The Fappening”, it was when Apple’s iCloud server was hacked and a bunch of nude celebrity photos were posted online. This also led to every Tom, Dick & Harry joining in and posting very intimate pics of their exes, outside ting and/or chile mudda using the hashtag #thefappening. Yuh would think you might have…
We all have those annoying Instagram followers so we decided to highlight some of the usual suspects (with open profiles). If you see your picture there #scorchdawg #sorry #notsorry #deuces
