Men who've been * Crushed by marbles * Stuck in a typewriter * Covered in melted cheese * Stuck to frozen peas * Burnt on a plasma screen * Squeezed with pliers
People who've got themselves impaled on * Mr T * An HB pencil * A BMX bike * Nelson's Column * A lubed-up cork. (in a vain attempt to cure flatulence) >> This Week's Question << We'd like your restaurant and bar stories. Tell us what they really do with our food and drinks here: http://wibble.com/questions/restaurantskitchensbars/ ------------------------------------------------- : SITES IN BRIEF Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates >> Lovely treehouses << Nothing much to add on this subject, other than these are cool as fuck and an idyllic place to sit smoking and bingeing on home-made wine after a row with the missus. http://www.treehouse-company.com/ >> Angry Rolf Harris << Surprisingly powerful stuff from wobble board-playing national treasure, despite a dated trance backing track. Strange for something to be both so stupid and emotionally moving at the same time. Just when you want to smirk you can't. http://www.wibble.com/links/Seal_protest >> Bucket fanny on Wikipedia << The old Wikipedia may not be 100% reliable, but it is exhaustive. They don't seem to think they have enough info on 'bucket fanny'. You could help Wikipedia by expanding it. (With a big speculum covered in KY jelly.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket_Fanny >> Proof that breasts are popular << So we put them in the headline... Look at the picture and click on it anywhere. The next page shows you the points where all the previous visitors have clicked. http://blog.outer-court.com/click/ >> 'Stupid' tattoo << We can't really imagine the mindset of someone who, like this character, gets a tattoo on their forehead that clearly reads "STUPID". Aside, perhaps, from guessing that they don't feature working in a bank as one of their ambitions. http://snipurl.com/stupidtattoo >> Good bad ideas << Always nice to see the underdog win a little. Here's a list of ten, frankly, idiotic internet business plans. All of them have done extremely well for the people who thought them up. We await that magical day when wibble makes us multimillionaires... http://snipurl.com/tg3w ------------------------------------------------- : THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO AAHH Sleepy serval Servals are medium-sized African cats that look like little leopards with tiny tiny heads. Here's a baby one, asleep in somebody's arms. http://www.kostich.com/baby_serval.htm ------------------------------------------------- : VIDEO SCHMIDEO VHS these and post them to your mates >> The dangers of unwary napping << There's an unwritten rule that you must never fall asleep when the majority of your mates are awake. So it's no surprise to see this drowsy fellow's erstwhile chums attaching fireworks to his legs and scaring the living crap out of him. He had it coming, you see. http://video.google.com/videoplay >> Musical rollerblading << Ad directors - rip this off now! It's kind of like all those marbles bouncing down San Francisco, but with a bloke on rollerblades that ping bottles at the side of the track to make classical music. Not something you see every day. http://snipurl.com/musicalrollerblading >> YouTube first lawsuit << "So what is up with YouTube?" we hear you ask. "Loads of good stuff's been removed due to 'terms of use violation'." Yep, it looks like YouTube is now not just big enough to be good, but big enough for the lawyers to start in. Bah. http://snipurl.com/yousued >> Love song for a bot << This musically-talented European chap thought it would be super-cool to make a trance record about an excellent IRC chat-bot. Was he right about that? Erm... http://basshunter.m0o.eu/anna/index_en.php >> Unpleasant crisps ad << Fresh from the "is it really real?" file (don't write in, there are no prizes) comes this short ad where UK snackmeisters Smiths compare the smell of their products to a lady's private bits. http://www.youtube.com/watch >> WACaday racist shock << If you look at the very start of the intro to this Eighties kids' TV show, the letters appear to spell out the word 'WOG'. Ooh. Naughties. Just as an aside, can that really be how the Eighties looked? Surely no. http://www.youtube.com/watch >> Fascinating toy collection << It would seem that an array of mechanical gizmos could be a little dry, but as you go through the video links, the Frasier Crane-alike professor demonstrates just how excellent each one is so you end up wanting one yourself and revering him as a genius. We particularly liked the Levitron. http://www.grand-illusions.com/toycollection/ >> Upside down room << It's an old, old prank but still incredibly good when people put as much work into it as this. Chappy goes away for a few days, his friends get busy with the galvanised screws... When he gets back his bed is on the ceiling. Excellent photos. Perfect. http://www.lightsideup.com/ ------------------------------------------------- : FUNNY NAME CORNER Pushing thumbs in your eyeballs until they burst >> Simple baby << "A campaign like this is giving babies a kick in their self-esteem from the off" writes Pixelmixer. It's the big gormless baby at the top left that does it for us. http://www.simple.co.uk/simplebaby >> Munters << "Whilst waiting for my girlfriend outside the local Woolworths a van drove past with this on the side of it," informs purplebananaskins, "and it made me chuckle." http://www.munters.co.uk/ ------------------------------------------------- : wibble IMAGE CHALLENGE Results from the Emo Challenge Last week we wanted you to imagine life a world dominated by Emo, youth movement of the terminally depressed. And so you did... Your favourites included:
