December 10The best thing, ever
I’ve seen some funny things in my time, I really have. Star Wars kid has been and gone, as have the GI Joe parodies and a number of other internet funnies. However, short film-maker Richard Gale has completely blown away everything I’ve seen and set a new standard. If anything beats this in the next few years I’ll show my arse in a Tesco advert. I’m posting this about a week late as I’ve been too distracted to blog.
Richard Gale presents: ‘The Horribly Slow Murderer with the Extremely Inefficient Weapon’. Check it out after the cut and prepare to reconnect your ass, as it may fall off.

November 232012 (not the film): End of the world?
I’ve just come across an interesting graphic that was originally posted by Information is Beautiful that I found on Derren Brown’s blog. It makes for fascinating viewing if you’re even remotely interested in whether or not the Mayans prediction that the apocalypse is coming in 2012 has any credibility, or not. Warning, long graphic is loooooonnnng.
