I’ve noticed fewer and fewer things these days are amusing me so much that I dribble slightly with laughter, like some sort of massive baby - but this advert, and it’s follow up are awesome. Thank you picnicface
In a recent fit of self criticism I questioned if posting other peoples material was a decent thing to do, even if it was flipping hilarious… I will call upon one of my famous* analogies: Are people not watching shows like Tarrant on TV? (sorry if you’re not from the UK… It’s a show where Chris Tarrant wheels out some crazy videos for some general point and laughery) You would assume so because ITV still show their program therefore people must be watching it.
Sometimes I just don’t have enough of my precious time to trawl through everything there is in the world, sort out what is good and rubbish. I must rely on stuff like Blogs to point out funny things which may not be original to them. Sometimes I get a little annoyed by social networking sites (like stumble), which you may point out is a good solution - perhaps, but it’s hard to get away from seeing the same stuff over and over, or filtering out the chaff that some other moron might think is funny - but really isn’t (here is a longer argument about this). I’ve decided upon a happy mix of stumble, digg etc, and sticking to sites/blogs I know update regularly with good stuff.
There. You happy now brain? all fine again.
*I am famed only to myself for skilful use of analogy. Other people probably know me more for making inappropriate comments about underage celebrities
Since this blog was build on a solid foundation of picture based puns, I resolved to create a new one. As I was mulling over the myriad of hilarious images I could make, I accidentally forgot my resolution and began visiting some of my favourite websites instead, and what should I find on b3ta but one of the exact pictures I considered! Hamster dam!
Well ok, maybe it wasn’t the exact same day that I thought of that but I really love this one, and is probably done better than I would have been bothered to…
By the way all the picture puns which lived here before I decided to concentrate on a more varied, and regularly updated blog are still intact and available on the link to the left there. Oh and in the link I just put into the previous sentence. I suppose I hate to delete any content, which is why if you explore any further back in this blog than about March you are likely to find a disturbing mixed bag of craziness from 3 blogs.
If anyone is stuck for an idea for a gift (I am talking specifically about for me by the way ;)) definitely check out this Neocube… Here are a few short clips of what kind of stuff you can do with 216 strong little magnets:
In a recent fit of boredom, Nick and Myself wondered: If someone only heard the title of a game - what would they think certain games were about?
Counter Strike: Take on the role of several CEO’s throughout history, and use bribery, persuasion, threats and violence to win back the workforce without giving in to their demands.
Half Life: Simple Puzzle game, the player has to guess the rate of decay of a given radioactive substace. Then simply wait anywhere from 10-4000 years to see if they were right!
Call of Duty: Frantic Multiplayer competition. Using your voip headseat you must shout ‘DUUTYYYY!’ louder than everyone else!
Mario 64: Will you still need him, will you still feed him (mushrooms) now that he is grey haired, incapable of jumping, and needs to get up three times a night to go to the toilet?
(Anyone who thinks my photoshop efforts are a naff version of the b3ta weekly questions is a delusional liar)
