Old Grandma Hardcore
No, not one of those sites. Infact it’s alot less dodgy than it sounds. One mans blog about his console-games loving gran. CAUTION: The old lady has a turn of phrase that would make a trooper blush.
30 second bunny theatre – Rocky Horror Show
Angry Alien have been very busy recently, we posted their Pulp Fiction re-enactment last week and they’ve just released The Rocky Horror Picture Show in 30 seconds, re-enacted by bunnies.
Best Grafitti ever
Especially for my mate Olly – here’s what could possibly be the best grafitti ever.
Ecclestone and Schumacher in a treeee…. K-I-S-S-I-N-Geeee!!
Well, this image confirms what I’ve always thought!
More Japanese Metro Images
After our strange interpretation of Christianity, cast your eyes over this image also (apparently) found on the Japanese underground. It may well be fake / photoshopped but it’s fun to suspend one’s belief!
Police strip to halt nudist crime
This story about British police having to strip off on a nudist beach to stop crime made me giggle. I just pity to poor bobby who has that beach on his beat.
infinite flickr Slideshow
The infinite flickr group is a great idea – here’s a slideshow – anyone can take part, just take a photo of you looking at the last photo in the series. (It’s easier to understand by checking out the slideshow).
How stonehenge could have been built by one man
Wally Wallington is a normal guy on the surface but this ex-labourer might have discovered how Stonehenge could have been built. It doesn’t seem that impressive but when you see the ease that he moves multi-ton rocks with only rope and some wood then it does seem entirely feasible.
*Edit* Link to movie is now a direct download link to avoid NSFW banners – now it’s SFW so everyone can see it.
Graduation Prank
This Mike Hawk sounds like a fine, upstanding fellow if this video of a graduation prank is anything to go by!
eBay item 5789263206
One for the Star Wars fanatical prime fans: The bass is strong in this one…
Melly Clistmas
What happens if you give an advertising company who has very little understanding of Christianity the job of developing the new campaign to publicise the release of the “Passion of the Christ” DVD? Answer… this.(Sorry about the poor taste title)
Google Moon
In honor of the first manned Moon landing, which took place on July 20, 1969, Google have added some NASA imagery to the Google Maps interface. Check out Google Moon to see the lunar landing sites and don’t forget to zoom in all the way to see if Wallace and Grommit were right.
One down, too many more to go
BNP founder John Tyndall has died. Shame eh? Let’s hope it something contagious that he spread to the rest of his racist followers. The only downpoint was that he didn’t actually get to stand trial.
(Sorry – we’ll return to normal non-political posts now)
The Adventures of ACTION ITEM!
Struggling with all the business jargon? You need…. ACTION ITEM!
Welcome to my world – no, really, you’re welcome to it.
Youblewmeupyoubastard
www.youblewmeupyoubastard.com: “We’ll store a photo of you, giving it large at the terrorists what done you in, and in the event of your body being blown to bits by a suicide bomber, we’ll supply your disgusted image to all news services. ” [sic]
The game with only one control
The title says it all. Play.
Inventive suicides
I love the very dark humour in this series of photos by Bill Thomas called ‘Suicide’ – some of the Heath Robinson/Rube Goldberg (delete according to your nationality) methods are disturbingly imaginative.
Magnetic Paint
Great idea – Magnetic Paint – I might get some to help block out the voices in my head.
Lastminute Auctions
For those frantic eBay addicts amongst our readers, here’s a link that you’ll either thank me or hate me for posting. Lastminute Auction will link to eBay in America, the UK, Germany, Australia and Italy and will show you all auctions that either end in the next minute (up to one hour) and cost less than a pound, dollar, euro etc. In their words – ‘… an hour or less, a buck or less’. It’s addictive so be warned.
Bloc Party Live Concert Download
I’m a big fan of Bloc Party and if you like them as well then you’ll thank me for pointing out this free download of a recent Bloc Party gig in Washington DC that was recorded and transmitted on National Public Radio.
Sparkler Art
Some of these examples of Sparkler Art are very cool – the planned ones like the angel’s wings or the man on the bike are very cool indeed.
*Edit* Oops – NSFW banners on the page.
It’s not an ad, it’s cinema sudoku
Newspaper readers in the UK are currently being treated to one of the best print ads I’ve ever seen. The title of this article about the Stella Artois adverts goes a long way to explaining what the fuss is about – It’s not an ad, it’s cinema sudoku luckily has links to the images and (thank god) the answers too. Here are some direct links if you don’t want to RTFA;
The Town – Answer
The Park – Answer
The Beach – Answer
More please!
Space mission to photograph Apollo landing sites
Fed up with people disbelieving the moon landings, NASA are setting out to debunk the conspiracy theorists once and for all. Off they pop to circle the moon as few times and take a few piccies – meanwhile they might collect one or two other shots just to make the most of the trip.
Making the Olympics more interesting
Another brilliant photoshop competition from Worth1000.com – this time it’s how to make the Olympics more interesting (and much more dangerous).
Half Life 2 vs A Few Good Men
Remember the classic “You can’t handle the truth’ speech from A Few Good Men with Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson? A guy from Seattle has redone the entire scene as a Half Life video and it’s amazing. Check out the effort involved for the different camera angles. Amazing work from one man.
Optimus LED keyboard
I can’t wait for this keyboard to make it into production. IT’s been getting lots of press recently and with good cause (if it can be made cheaply enough). Basically, the Optimus LED keyboard has blank keys that will show the icons for what ever program you are using – in normal mode it will look like a normal keyboard but switch to photoshop or games and the keys will change to display symbols. Very cool indeed.
More Ukulele Madness
I’m not sure why we started posting so much ukulele madness but I just love it. Check out this video of Jake Shimabukuro playing George Harrison’s ‘Why My Guitar Gently Weeps’. It’s astounding and you’ve gotta hang around for the utterly insane solo about two-thirds of the way through.
Pulp Fiction in 30 seconds with bunnies.
Angry alien have done it again, this time they’ve tackled Pulp Fiction in 30 seconds with bunnies. It’s their toughest one yet but they manage it with style.
Plan 9 From Outer Space
Ed Wood’s fantastic movie Plan 9 From Outer Space is often called the Worst Movie Ever Made (for excellent background viewing, you must see Ed Wood with Johnny Depp). If you haven’t ever seen it, those lovely people at the Internet Archive will let you download the whole movie for free and you too can see how the death of the lead character just before start of filming doesn’t need to affect the shooting schedule.
Multi-Monitor FAQ
This handy FAQ on Multi-Monitor setups is just my way of showing off that I have mutliple monitors at work and at home. (I’m just posting this for myself really but I guess some people will find it handy).
