Shit tech guys say: ‘Well, technically…’
For my geek pals … a laugh a minute from the sharp Daniel Eran Dilger … fantastic!
Louise Mensch right wing vixen part 2
I mentioned UK Tory MP Louise Mensch in July applauding her handling of a blackmail attempt. Here’s a profile from The Guardian‘s Decca Aitkenhead Louise Mensch: ‘We’re not all ogres’ which is very interesting for similar reasons, and more… We were still swooning at her brio when rioting broke out across Britain and she made […]
Oh Patrick Gower!
Well worth watching … 50 seconds of … well, of … Patrick Gower. You know, the [allegedly] ‘deceitful bastard’ ACT leader-on-the-skids Don Brash wouldn’t talk to — three times. Good on him. From TV3’s Firstline (full clip). Look how he cracks up Rachel Smalley … who sometimes indulges in a wee bit of humour […]
Grumpies’ solution for the economy
This was emailed to me. Here it is, without endorsement or criticism, warts and all (although I think it’s a cut-and-paste. What ‘motor industry’?): ==START QUOTE== Dear John Key and Bill English, Please find below our suggestion for fixing New Zealand’s economy. Instead of giving billions of dollars to the banks, Iwi’s and others to […]
Poor Siri caught up in an argument
A little swearing, but I had to chuckle at the tagline… See all the CollegeHumor Original Videos here. via stumbleupon.com
Leave John Key Alone
Oh dear. Now he’s a subject of piteous mockery. (I assume.) Whoever ‘runawaywithgypsies‘ is, I’m sure Cameron will have the number plates of their motorcycles up on his website days before the NZ Herald. – P
Oh, wow. Enjoy
I like these optical illusions … it’s NOT moving. Even more here at www.ritsumei.ac.jp Thanks to Jeremy Parkinson. – P
Naff
I like Gin Wigmore. I already done said it. But that idea of using a picture of yourself with a red background on one side and blue one on the other? Well, that’s just naff. – P
Green Gorilla: What? No authorisation statement?
OMG, don’t let Cameron Slater see this! After last week’s brain fart he might blow a gasket. I don’t know exactly which Green Party candidate it’s promoting — who is the ‘Green Gorilla’? Does anyone know? Russel Norman? Bu-bu-but I couldn’t see an authorisation statement anywhere! Gee, they’re cunning, those Greens. Very cunning … – […]
Choked? Who? The Aussies?
I hesitate to say anything that might remotely jinx the All Blacks next weekend against France in the Rugby World Cup final … I had the opportunity to wish All Blacks coach Graham Henry the best of luck in person today, so like a schoolboy, I did. This is from the foot of a rather […]
Birds of a feather part 2
Ha! A couple of days ago, I commented how a google search led me to a website offering training courses in pick up lines for women … and, judging by the ads on the site, punters in the market for that valuable, um, service also appear interested in paying to learn Gambling tips. Today I […]
Birds of a feather?
Ha! I found this funny: I googled the term ‘disvalidation‘ this morning (I know it’s not a real word, but wanted to see if it was used, you’ll see why in a later post on the Filter Bubble) … and saw a web result that, on a glance, I thought had the word ‘education’ in […]
A rich Green comedy performance from Matthew Hooton
STAND UP COMIC Matthew Hooton — he works part-time as a political commentator — had me howling, breathless with laughter at his latest comedy routine on RadioLIVE earlier in the week. Under the deeply ironic title of ‘The Political Panel’, talkback radio hosts Willie Jackson and John Tamihere sometimes give a platform to budding comedians […]
