What was that 118? Prison Sentence 118?

January 31, 2008

Telephone9

We’ve all been subjected to ‘hello 11811 Mourrrgrett speaking…’, and safe to say you wouldn’t go out of your way to ring them unless you were actually needed some sort of urgent medical treatment, or if you needed a chinese delivery in a very drunken haze. A middle aged man in Japan has been thrown in the clink for placing 10,000 calls (yes, 4 zeros!) to directory assistance. Why? Becuase he liked when the operators gave out to him!

“I would go into ecstasy when a lady scolded me,” he was quoted as saying by Jiji Press.

Telephone operators – who in Japan are almost always women – nicknamed him the “don’t-hang-up-man”.

His calls usually came late and sometimes exceeded 200 times a night, Jiji Press said.

Now there’s a man with dedication! I mean if this guy had sat down with a careers guidance person earlier he could’ve made it big in telecommunications! They certainly could do with someone like this over in UPC where they seem to be alergic to answering the god damn telephone!

16 year old boy with wood…en bike

January 25, 2008


Far bee it to rain on the dudes parade but without brakes on the thing it would be my opinion that it is not a fully functioning bike! It’s just an oddly shaped bumper car eh bike…

Marco Facciola, a 16-year-old high school student, constructed this wooden bicycle to fulfill a class requirement.
…In the future I hope to find another challenging woodworking project, but for now, I plan to focus on my schoolwork, my part-time job and sports

Yeah i’d do that if i was you Gipetto, concentrate on school, the outcome will be better…

Your hangover parachute sir?

January 23, 2008


You’d think those Japanese folk know a thing or two! What the lord taketh in height he firmly giveth back in crazy lunatic ideas!

Your running for your dart, the bing bong is loudly booming on the platform, you’ve just had your eye removed from a happy gentleman from Nigeria waving a free paper, you’ve just put your library card in the ticket slot of the gate and spilled 8.60 worth of change all over the floor in the mix up and look up to see the 7.15 pull out from Malahide without you on it!

Wouldn’t it then be nice to pull this bad boy out of your pocket, it’s like a ‘push the red button incase of disaster’ type products! They should be in all dispensing machines! Shame the coffee is in a can though…

Wear or Not dot com

January 21, 2008


It was only a matter of time before someone thought of something like this. Ideal for people with a tendency to take far too long to get ready (how will taking photo’s and uploading and waiting for joe public to respond speed it up i hear you chant!) or are just unsure what to wear in general!

I think Michael should get a fucking life

In my book if you uploaded you wearing clothes to this site, your a knob.

Marie Antoinette Action Figure

January 21, 2008

Product Description
Marie Antoinette’s reign as the Queen of France was clouded in controversy. Her extravagant lifestyle led many to believe that she was not worthy of the throne and eventually she became widely despised as the epitome of incompetence and frivolity within the French royalty. During the French Revolution, Marie was stripped of her crown, imprisoned and beheaded by guillotine in front of a cheering crowd. This 5-1/2″ (14 cm) tall, hard vinyl figure features amazing “Ejector Head Action,” and comes with a removable plastic wig and dress.

What better way to learn a bit of culture and history than by an obscure action figure. It steps away from the time old tradition Matell favourites of Action Man and Barbie i suppose! Also for $8.99, personally i think everyone should have one!!
My favourites about this is the “ejector head”, like they couldn’t just have made it removable…add some spurting blood and i’d buy one, i really would..

Lorcan Malone – My Super Sweet Sixteen (stone of horrendous shite)

January 16, 2008

The nation seems to be swept up with some little runt who appeared on My Super Sweet 16 on MTV recently. Ya know? The show that rail-roads their parents into spending shit loads of money on ungrateful brats by putting together parties and events that Bob Geldof would himself struggle to organise!

I first heard of this in November when Lorcan’s dad appeared on Matt Coopers Last Word and even the dad sounded like a tool of the highest order, couple that with Marr not knowing what the fuck a sweet sixteen was at all or who ‘mmm teee veee’ were. Link below to actually watch the show, now bear in mind the normal american version is cringing and funny, this is sick as its an irish teenager acting the diva.

you know what i did when i was sixteen? huh? I WENT BOWLING! and i fucking well enjoyed it!

The little tyke has a bebo page tracked down by mulley himself. In the photos section i was drawn to comments on a particular photo, i think this comment is priceless!

How u managed to embaress an entire country in a meer 30 minutes of tv i doubt i will ever understand……. How u acted was both childish and imature. Your parents i would imagine are both shocked and apauled at your behavoir on national television. You have cast aspersions on ireland as a country and depicted the once idolized irish people in an unimaginable fasion. This in my opinion is absalutly deplourable. I hope you are happy for both embaressing your fellow citizens and dragging your countries name through the dirt…… If you ever see me i would strongly advise you to run away in the opposite direction as i am deeply angered from the shame which you have brought apon this country.

Well “Tickle-My-Clit” you may have a point! However true i might say that all of the above is true, I think this guy needs to invest in spell-check! After running this through Google’s Translate programe i could only decipher some of it, best of luck if your having trouble understanding it!

At least we now know that the Northern Bank money went to a good cause. Lorcan in my view is whats wrong with this country. That and the health system.

I mean what have the romans ever done for us eh
