Tour de Butt
You go on holiday… take loads of pictures of yourself, things and yourself infront of things… some people even take a teddy bear with them and photograph that infront of things. There’s one thing you may be forgetting… one thing that always goes on holiday with you but almost never gets to have any fun and/or appear in your holiday snaps. What is it? Your bottom – that’s what. Scott Pulver has started an online photo album of his bottom in interesting places. It’s not a particularly large site but I think it motive is wonderful and I urge you all to start photographing your bottom whilst on holiday and send it to this man!
Roger Moore’s eyebrows of fun!
Q. What do you get if you cross the theme tune to ‘Take Hart’ and Roger Moore’s eyebrows?
A. A very strange animation. Requires sound. SFW but you might get a few funny looks.
Gay Cats
I know it’s now rather passe to claim that humans are the only gay animals… but if you still need convincing check out these queer kittens
Nice pants!
Your partner refuses to put down their Playstation controller? Would they rather shoot aliens than come to bed? Tempt them into bed with these pants!
Son of Typecasting
Another interesting article submitted by regular reader Carl – this one is about the typefaces (fonts for you non-designery types) used in movies. Son of Typecasting considers the use of Futura by Wes Anderson – it’s surprisingly interesting.
Tricks of the Trade
A while back I read an interview with a children’s birthday clown. At one point the interviewer asked, “What if you’re dying out there? What if the kids are hating it?” And the clown revealed a fascinating trick of the birthday clown trade: Every year, it seems, there are two or three funny words that invariably crack kids up, and when things are going sour, you can blurt one out and bring the house down. But a clown’s got to keep up to date, because the funny words mysteriously change over time. Where “booger” might have killed in 1998, 2004 demands nothing less than an “underpants.”
Curiously, I’ve noticed an almost identical aspect in the software development trade. Every year there seems to be a technical whatsit that management recognizes as the sexy-cool new thing but doesn’t really understand. This year, for instance, a programmer can always tack the phrase “and I’m thinking of incorporating some XML functionality” onto a project summary to explain why he’ll need an extra week, account for a missed deadline, or impress a superior. In this respect, the gap between software engineers and birthday clowns is almost negligible.

Arty thing
In an attempt to make this site seem diverse and interesting and to instill into you the belief that we at Pri.me.uk are intellectual types with a full appreciation of the finer aspects of life (not just giggling at w1llies found whilst innocently searching Google Images), we think you should check out this lovely arty site – it’s full of cracking pictures, nice choons, occasional interactivity (sort of) and no kn0b gags.
One of these things…
is not like the other (part 25). Let’s do a little GIS for piggy and see what we get.
How-To Make 3-D photos
Here’s a cool how-to on the making of 3-D photos.
Man burns pr0n on plane
Ok, Read this story about a man burning a pr0n magazine on a plane because he objected to the inter-racial pr0n he saw and try to work out if he’s a bigger idiot for getting caught having a w4nk in the toilets or for being a racist tw4t.
Arcata Eye Police Log
We haven’t had an Arcata Eye Police Log update for a while. This is one of the most consistently funny sites I know. For several years now the duty log in this small-town police station has been published for everyone to see. Instead of the usual ‘a house was broken into…’ tedium, whoever writes up this stuff is a Zen poet of the highest order.
Sample; “5:25 p.m. Two men were reported having oral sex at the car wash, not previously known as a hotbed of erotic abandon, but times change. Tuesday, July 20 1:12 a.m. A cow was reported mooing too loudly near a dairy truck on Samoa Boulevard.”
Dick Van Dyke is a CG fan
I realise that the headline will probably get me blocked from most mail filters but there’s nothing dodgy about it. It seems that Dick ?Van Dyke is a big CG fan and has been doing his own stuff on the quiet for a long time – he gets bonus points for being an old Amiga head.
TouchGraph GoogleBrowser
Now this is quite neat. I thought I’d seen plenty of gimmicks like this before but the TouchGraph GoogleBrowser really impressed me. Simply enter an url (like www.pri.me.uk if you’re stuck for ideas) and it’s display a graph of the links in and out of the page. My only complaint is that it seems to be grabbing the links from my sidebar but not from the main page.
Munch’s Scream found on eBay
Ok, so it’s a spoof auction but these days it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest to see international art thefts being sold on eBay.
Palette Joy
Another handy little tool for people feigning web design skills (like me). If you can’t tell your 4rse from your indigo then you might like to tweak some colours with this little site.
Olympic Good Things
There are some good things about this year’s Olympics. My favourite so far was hearing a commentator saying the immortal line about “Ivankov on the vault”.
Which Musical Spoof shall I buy today?br>
I’m having a dilemma today. I want to buuy some new cds and I’m in a funny mood so do I buy a cd by The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain wihch has such cover versions as ‘Miss Dy-na-mit-tee’ & ‘Je T’Aime… Moi Non Plus’. Option 2 is Hayseed Dixie who do hillbilly versions of classic rock songs (got two of their albums already and highly rate them). Option 3 is Is It Rolling Bob, a reggae tribute to Bob Dylan. If it’s even half as good as the dub tribute Dub Side of the Moon then it’ll be great. Or finally, do I go for Rebuild the Wall a country & Western version of Pink Floyd’s The Wall? Dilemmas, dilemmas.
One of these things is not like the others (pt. 17-ish)
In yet another of our series of Google Image Searches which return solitary unexpected results, today we can bring you the Google Image Search for bear. (Use your imagination – it’s NSFW)
Cellphone Camera Lenses
I was only just talking to someone the other day about gettign photographic filters for mobile phones and digital cameras and then I stumble onto this Cellphone Camera Lens Combo Set. It’s a funny old world.
ggler – google with thumbnails
ggler is a neat idea that I’m sure we’ll be seeing more of. It’s an interface to google which returns a small thumbnail of the results alongside the normal google results. SImple but useful.
Gmail Notifier
Anyone who uses Gmail will probably want to knwo about the new Gmail Notifier – it comes with two features; firstly a system tray app that tells you when you have new mail without having to open a browser but also a nifty feature that changes any ‘mailto:’ command on a webpage to send to from your gmail account.
Cats Are Evil
I’ve been told this on many occassions but finally I can bring you proof that cats are evil. For full effect, you really need audio.
I Love Monkeys
I love monkeys. They make great buddy icons in trillian too.
I’ll have no Lionel Blairing on this Page
Lionel Blair is already rhyming Slang for numerous things including chair, nightmare and flares (witty lot these cockneys!) but with this advert he seems to be making a bid to become rhyming slang for ‘Swear’ too. Great stuuf from the shoe tapping maestro. (audio is NSFW).
Mystery Of Time And Space Adventure
If, like me, you jabbed away at JC’s blog, Viridian Room, until your mousing finger was sore, this game might make you feel a little better about yourself… I could at least get out of the room within 10 minutes. Very similar premise, a lot less poncey. Cheers Steve
Find your celebrity twin
Analogia isn’t some kind of colon blockage, it’s a nifty site that lets you upload your photos and tries to find your celebrity twin. Apparently I look like David Duchovney, my 8 month old daughter looks like Neve Campbell and Julia Roberts and god only knows what happened here!

PixelField
Damn this game! PixelField is irritatingly hard for something that should be simple. Best not to play it straight after the Viridian Room posted below or you’ll just end up resenting me for wasting hours of your life.
Escape from the Viridian Room
Back in February, we posted a link to Escape from the Crimson Room which triggered lots of comments and mails , mainly due to the fiendish-ness of the game. There’s now a new variant by the same guy, this time you must escape form the Viridian Room. Feel free to post hints or silutions in the comments but I’d appreciate it if you posted a comment first saying something like ‘Post below contains spoilers’.
YetiSports Update
Our favourite online game collection Yeti Sports have got a couple of Olympic specials running at the moment. Firstly, you can play their pentathalon version of the games – one round of each existing penguin-abusing games. Secondly, they’re giving away a free mobile phone version of the first pingu-slapping game for java enabled phones.
