A new look for iamcal.com/fonts

Have you topped up your oil lately? Cooking oil, i mean.

Marvel at, among some other sculptures, Lego Escher

A spelling lesson from bloing.

This just might be the best page in the universe

I officially hurt myself laughing at that best page in the universe site.

Its a shame to see a great institution like the BBC resorting to Daily Star type puns in the cooking oil story:

"Traffic police - dubbed "frying squad" officers - are sniffing out the tax dodgers because the fumes smell like chips cooking."


Still, it is in wales.

The thing is that regardless of whether or not it is cheaper than deisel it is definitly better fro the environment, it burns cleaner, is made from plants and not oil out of the ground. Smells better. Plus Mr Diesel the guy who invented the Diesel engine (what a coinsidence that he should share a name with the engine that he designed) actually designed it to run on vegetable based oils.

So there you go.

we should all use it.

Dave diesel?
Posted by cal, 17:30, 9th October 2002:
 
the "problem" is that there's no fuel tax on cooking oil (yet)

and as for the pun, it came from the police themselves, not the bbc :)

That guy isn't funny, he's just a mouthy twat. There's 1,000 of them on the web.

So that reasons to commit suicide page didn't even raise a slight smile?

That guy is quite possibly a comedy genius.

Nope. In fact 2 and 3 demand that someone kicks the living shit out of him.

What these ones?

2. If you just got out of a bad relationship and you feel like things are never going to get better; you're right. Everyone knows that suicide is the only option, stop procrastinating. Look on the bright side, at least your ex will feel guilty for a couple of minutes--but don't count on it.

3. Depressed? Don't have any friends? I guess nobody told you, but being depressed and feeling lonely isn't normal. Everyone else is happy, and has lots of friends so there must be something wrong with you. Put the prozac away, what you need is rat poison.

Gonna wet myself....

You can't see even a bit of comedy in this paragraph?

Come on monkey, no one likes someone with an opinion of their own, come join the flock!

I will take a look at the kiddie drawings now.
However, if he's just dissing the kids drawings because they are crap compared to adult ones, I'm just going to shake my head and lower my opinion of the guy a little more...

::Shakes head::

It's not funny!
Posted by Grim..., 17:23, 11th October 2002:
 
Oh, alright, the following made me laugh:



This was a Christmas gift from Kelly to her parents. Good job Kelly, now pack up your shit and find a foster home. If my kids tried to pass this off as a gift, they'd come home from school and find all their shit outside in a box. What a lousy gift, seriously. You give them video games and toys, and they give you some half-assed drawing with a crooked tree. I wonder how much a gift like this would set someone back. Five, maybe ten minutes to find a napkin and some markers?

see - it is funny
