Hal-9000 Soundboard
For all the geeks and sysadmins out there here’s a Hal-9000 Soundboard so you can set your answerphone message to “I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that”.
My New Hero
My New Hero.
Pets in Places
Take your pick from these ‘specialist’ websites – are you a Cats in Sinks person or a Dogs in Cars person. Both do exactly what they say.
Whale spotted in central London
You certainly don’t see Whales in central London every day!
Willy Chilis
MMmmm….. chilis… drool… ARGH! Willy chilis! (NSFW in a comedy kind of way)
ball revamped IV
You’re going to hate me for this one. Remember ‘ball’? the excitingly named game where you had to get the ball into the wormhole? Well they’ve just revamped it. I dare you to stick with it until you get to the first boss. click
Need practice?
Why not practice your r3ctal examination technique on somebody who isn’t going to complain about cold hands or lack of lubrication. Digital Rectal Examination simulator. I wonder if there are any other uses for this product? (strictly speaking this should be SFW but I wouldn’t risk it if your boss it around, therefore here’s the obligatory NSFW tag)
Bullet Madness
This site is not the gore-fest you might think. In fact it is a resource of sweet little icons and graphics for your downloading happiness. Most are actually quite nice.
50 people see
Yet another lovely flickr tag post. User ‘Brevity’ has written little bit of joy which harvests images with the same tag and blends them. I think the resulting images lie somewhere between Monet and Pollack. What do you think?
Timing is everything
Another bunch of lovely photos of things being caught at exactly the right moment. I wonder if the lady with the red fingernails got hurt in the taking of some of these photos?
Things stuck in MRI Machines
If you’ve watched enough ER then you’ll know that the M in MRI stands for Magnetic. You’d think that this would be a big enough clue that you shouldn’t put metallic objects near an MRI machine, wouldn’t you? Apparently not it seems. (The html is a bit squiffy – make sure you scroll down on the Oxygen Tank picture for the bonus horro story underneath the image).
*Edit* Bonus link – I’ve only just noticed the legs in this image – bet that hurt!
The Slug Site – Another Unecessarily Exhaustive Website
We haven’t featured any unecessarily exhaustive websites for a while so I was pleased when Dan sent me a link to the Slug Site which fulfills our criteria pretty well and even managed to introduce me to words such as “Nudibranch” and “Opisthobranch” which I’ll be trying to drop into conversation all week.
Tarzan!
Just received this from a FOAF. I have seen the original without the blacking out of the mobile number so I can verify it that far but other than that I can only tell you that he found it on the floor of a restaurant just before Xmas. I present this without any further comment.
Kill the guy with the microphone!
On a scale of 1 to 10, just how gutted do you think this guy is? And how leathered the dude with the microphone is? (NSFW due to banners)
fur elise
And now for a musical interlude. We at Prime are fans of strange and unusual music, whether the strangeness be the music itself or the instruments creating it. Today, for your aural pleasure, we bring you Ludwig Van Beethoven’s “Fur Elise”, an arrangement for software and solo flatbed scanner. Requires sound (duh).
Using Google Video from Outside the US
Further to our recent cool hack for getting to see blocked sites by using Google translate as a proxy server, it seems that you can use a very similar hack to use Google Video from outside of the USA. (NB this is for our readers outside of the USA, Australia and the UK since we can all use Google Video already).
Mealbox – An Instant Design Classic
Every so often you see something that just makes perfect sense. The Mealbox is a great example of that – it’s an instant design classic. It’s a simple box that contains a Japanese-style dining table and chairs for 6 people.
Yutaka Projects
Pri.me.uk are in the unique position to be able to offer our visitors the unique chance to buy an incredible thing. Tower Bridge, one of London’s most distinctive landmarks has been passed to our good selves to sell on behalf of the people of London. For the princely sum of £50,000,000 you can walk away with a piece of history. For a limited period only you can take control of the bridge and raise it’s famous roadway just to demonstrate to you the awesome power at your fingertips. (Buyer must collect. Cheques payable to “Prime Guys”)
Capoeira Vs Muay Thai
If you’ve of Capoeira dancing before, you might like this chance to see it in it’s original fighting form in a beautiful (& Kick-ass) fight scene of Capoeira Vs Muay Thai from the movie Tom Yum Goong.
Best Name Ever
If you thought being called Demetrius Breedlove would be bad, think about the poor girl fifth row down, far right. *Speechless*
Best Blonde Joke Ever
This has to be, without a doubt, the funniest blonde joke ever.
More Puzzles to scream at
Quick round-up of many online puzzlers – many seen here before but still a few new ones at Quandary Free Fun.
Impress Your Manager – Cheat at Minesweeper
You are now only one click away from impressing every manager, sales person and receptionist you meet by beating Minesweeper every time – just follow the simple instructions and have a try.
The Prejudice Map
The Prejudice Map defines the world’s prejudices using Google. Seems about right to me.
Obsessive Compulsive Action Figure
As much as I like th idea of having an Obsessive Compulsive Action Figure, I can’t stand the idea that someone else might have touched it with their hands. Must wash…
The Garfield Randomizer
The The Garfield Randomizer reminded me of a cheap fruit machine – I kept thinking I was going to get 3 cherries and win something.
A Million To One
Some of you will remember our post about student Alex Tew’s Million Dollar Homepage where he was selling pixels on the page for money. Remarkably, he’s done it, he’s sold every pixel on the (now ugly as sin) page and in the process made himself a million. Good Work Alex. (& why am I not surprised to see Golden Palace in there too – since they’ve jumped onto vrtually every internet attention grabbing headline for the past couple of years).
To Each His Own
Time for another reader submission (and you’ll realise why I stress that in a minute!). I can’t quite understand the need for a Rubber Urinal Suit but people out there obviously buy them. If I want someone to use me as a toilet then I could go into any number of dodgy bars around here but somehow that just doesn’t appeal. Site is SFW but probably not the kind of thing that you’d actually want on your screen at work so do excerise caution.
thanks Kim
StickMen Arena
I didn’t post this last time I saw it as the server was being a bit flaky at the time but everything seems to be back to normal for the marvellous Stick Arena – it’s dead simple, it’s an online, multiplayer stickman deathmatch so click the link, hit quick start and proceed to kick butt. You can even create private servers to play against your friends (enemies?)
firstgoat53
We’ve all done it… and we all remember the strange mixture of revulsion and fascination experienced when one witnesses g04tse for the first time. Consure up that feeling now if you will… then enjoy the sublime flictr tag firstgoatse.
