Only One Palin

Sat, 08 Nov 2008 12:25:53 GMT

Monty Python fans marched on the US Embassy to support the one true Palin.

I really wanted to see a CIA man saying "Stop That, That's Silly".

Pythonline have cleverly used this as a very cheap way to plug the new DVD boxed set.

Spooky Scary Skeletons

Something fun, more nonsense to get stuck in your head.

The original, better quality than YouTube:

Why Is The Rum Gone?

Thu, 16 Oct 2008 09:51:12 GMT

Something to get "Taking The Hobbits to Isengard" purged from out minds, it can be replaced with "Why Is The Rum Gone?".

One for Jak to try in his new job.

You know you want to.

From xkcd.

The Flashmob Heist

I thought it was just in movies you hear about heists like this.

Code Jokes

Mon, 22 Sep 2008 11:51:50 GMT

Thanks to a link on the Bristol and Bath Perl mailing list, I stumbled over to this from xkcd.

I don't know why, but it stuck me as the funniest thing I've seen in ages.

For bonus Nerd points, here is the code as Perl.

sub getrandomnumber { #Chosen by a fair dice roll. Guaranteed to be random. return(4); }

Background Patterns

A bit of playing about with the GIMP again, some simple recolours of the old green background image.

Flat Earth and Space Pasta

Flat-Earthers.

Yes.

Flat-Earthers.

Yes, people who really do think the earth is flat.

More about this on the BBC website:

Do they really think the earth is flat?

Now, I can see, from an "always ask the question, even if you think it's stupid" point of view, much like the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster challenge the ideas of teaching religious belief in a science class.

Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster

But how can Flat-Earthers not be joking?

Flat Earth FAQ

The mention of "four elephants and a turtle" in the FAQ doesn't help credibility.

The Discworld Books

The BBC have given them a fair shake, but I call shenanigans.

A huge amount of work has gone into this Joke, but it's a Joke.

"An elephant could no more stick it's trunk up it's arse than we could lick our balls."

New Background Pattern

Playing about with the GIMP, came up with this.

Generated by the Land script, then played about with to soften and dull it down.

Zombies vs The Mob, great fun.

New Smiley for the LAF

Fri, 16 May 2008 00:28:16 GMT

Something I quickly GIMPed up for the Lead Adventure Forum, Wirelizard asked for a drooling on the keyboard in envy face, so I took a couple of the existing smiley faces and mashed them together.
