Humour
This new 2 minute clip on how the Republicans have managed to distract Americans despite an entire four years of failure is almost as brilliant as This Land. Look for web-reports that the author of this will surely exceed bandwidth limits on his/her Earthlink site soon.
If you have a love of architecture, green homes, virtual reality, and Dilbert, and you have a good half hour to waste spend, I recommend that you visit Scott Adam’s new Virtual home tour at http://www.dilbert.com/duh and be prepared to be blown away. The house design was the result of thousands of Dilbert readers collaborating [...]
Cable company NTL subscribers who called for tech support finally heard the unequivocal truth that is universally understood but never explicitly stated about tech support lines the world over: “You are through to NTL customer services. We don’t give a (expletive) about you. We are never here. We just (expletive) you about, basically, and we [...]
John Paczkowski over at Good Morning Silicon Valley linked to this brilliantly funny one pager on the world’s 9 worst convenience foods. I’m not sure which is more appalling, the clam jerky or the armour pork brains in milk gravy.
I like it. Very funny. This post of Hugh’s is definitely worth reading and he obviously struck a big nerve given the number of comments he received after his post. Here is a sample of Hugh’s business card sized artwork:
I was laughing so hard, my stomach hurt and I was in tears. I highly recommend this movie being hosted at Atom Films. CNET has written an article on the fact that this film has now received 10.4 million unique visitors in July – more than three times the number that visited Kerry’s and Bush’s [...]
Well, it seems that the Nigerian “help us free this money” soft-sell scam is getting lower response rates these days so they have moved on to version 2 – the hard sell (article in the Register) – a direct demand for protection money with the threat of being “snipped and gunned down.” From the poor [...]
These two postings from David Hornik at Venture Blog are definitely funny. It makes the most sense if you read his prior post called “Calendar Calisthenics” first (the serious one in which he laments his compressed schedule) and then you’ll see the humour in the follow-up “Calendar Calisthenics Redux” posting where his friend made fun [...]
Sex drives all new technologies: Super-8 films, Videos, DVDs, the web. Well, now it’s time for orgasm-inducing porn on your…phone. According to this article, Europeans are building, building, building (pant) towards a climactic $1.5B worth of soft and hard-core porn purchases over their phones. A few lessons come to mind: • Selling sex is almost [...]
I’m not sure whether to laugh or cry at this particularly awful campaign that contains 4 different shots of women fawning over a huge armpit that looks like a headless furry crotchless armless mutant. As usual, Mark Morford has quite a bit to say about it. You know what chicks really dig? Armpits. Not normal [...]
Duckomenta….the museum of historical duckery. This is a must-see.
The Universe is 14 billion years old and will either either re-collapse into itself, expand into a completely diluted state, or rip apart in its 36th billion year in a runaway expansion so violent that galaxies and planets will be torn asunder in a fraction of a second. How do we manage the polarity inherent [...]
