A man walks into a psychiatrist's office wearing nothing but clingfilm all over his body.
The psychiatrist says, "Well, I can clearly see your nuts".

How many pschiatrists does it take to change a lightbulb?
One, but the lightbulb has to want to change.

martinX - so true. I was waiting for the bit where you get bombarded with vampire sniggles and trivia pokes and all that crap.

I'm pro-choice, and I have to admit that when I first read this link, I was so disappointed just imagining the field day that "pro-life" groups will have with this. But the more I think about it, the more apparent it becomes to me that no one on either side is going to change their mind because of this, and no one is going to see this woman's actions as typical or widespread. Similarly, from an artist's perspective I often cringe at this kind of work because of the reputation it gives... [more]

absolutely gorgeous - when it loaded i was wishing there were 'adult' games as beautifully made, but upon reuniting the neighbour with his top hat i realise that it doesn't really matter - an engaging game is an engaging game.

When I saw the post about the band, I had to share my squid links.

In that spirit, may I offer you one of my favourites? Baby Squid, Born like Stars.

Like many above me, I'd be more concerned about the subtle and pervasive effects of advertising on a child than cartoonish gore.

Also, regarding the article at Words & Pictures, I notice that one of the banner ads linking to the merchandise section features a headless woman's torso, the underside of the breasts exposed and the site's logo emblazoned across the top (I found it on the archives page).

Perhaps not as overt as a cartoonish stump, but rather hypocritical given the tone of the article.

Erm, did anyone else notice that the chicken in the 10th episode (around the 7.20 mark in the first link) ended up between the rabbit and the toilet bowl?

Now I am embarrassed by my puerile sense of humour

Thank you so much - the display at Massive Attack back in 2001 blew my mind and i have always been meaning to find out more about the people who did it. Awesome, this is why I love Metafilter..

Lentrohamsanin - I also discovered this comic via YWiBaYSFB and have been reading it since (a wonderful antidote to the vileness of Shredded Moose)

Man why is Australian TV so kick ass?

Damn, if only it was all this good - be thankful you're not exposed to our police/medical dramas - that line from The Hitchhiker's Guide about the president of the Intergalactic Arts Nobbling Council gnawing his own leg off during a Vogon poetry recital always seems to spring to mind when I catch a bit of All Saints or the like. I guess I'm not sure that the Chaser and John Safran's various shows... [more]

thanks for posting this video, it presented the whole issue in a way i've never seen it framed before.

still, i can't believe that in 2007 we're still arguing about this. if you object to the idea of abortion, then don't get one.

there are quite a few treasures and curiosities on this site, some of my favourites:

if an a-bomb falls (1951) ("will you know what to do?")

abortion eve 1973 and who killed junior? (1973) - fascinating roe vs wade decision comics, particularly the former

hooked! (1966) and johnny gets the word (1965) - dealing with drug use and syphilis respectively

and how to spot a jap (1942) - a... [more]
