it's getting darker so walking up in the morning is slowly becoming a feat of inhuman endurance, buy me buy me!!



QuoteA silent alarm clock, an illuminating, personalised alarm integrated into your bedding that gently wakes you in the most natural way. Ever since the beginning of time light has controlled our body clock telling us when to sleep and when to wake. As lifestyles are rapidly changing with increased travel and demands on our time, people's natural body clocks are out of sync. This pillow and duvet simulates a natural dawn that eases you into your day. Light Sleeper Bedding uses electroluminescent technology allowing traditional textile surfaces to become a reactive light source.

Wow! Those do look the bizzo. You can get, I think, lamps that have the same affect.  How are you fairing with the winter time at the moment, splats?

A repost of the 'lost' episode of Columbo. It won fair Frinky's heart.




splattermac

that's wonderfully put together. Has comic book Columbo solved any more cases that you've not posted?

And speaking of comic strips, I wonder if Mundays is working on anything, perhaps something festive for Christmas if you're reading ;)

re the glowing duvet above, I don't have SAD (touch wood), I imagine it's a horrible debilitating thing, I'm just lazy and anything to make getting out of bed for the monotony of wintertime 9-5 would be welcomed.

I wonder as it starts to get brighter do you dream about angels, or spooky deep sea fishes or being crushed by a giant LCD? If I were a rich man I'd buy one for an experiment. As an aside I'm looking forward to a future when technology can make a room deathly silent so you get to sleep in deafening silence and all you can hear is your pulse in your ear and the sound of your twitching eyelids on the pillow... and not the sound of your housemates up pissing twice each during the night and the cistern refilling, eww shudder, worse is to wake up to early morning plopping and raspy wind expulsion, my room is next to the loo you see, remember that anyone looking for shared accommodation!

Gandhi



Gandhi is pleased with your work, young Plonker. Have some Golden Sandals as reward.

Lt Plonker

I did have Columbo visit Michael Barrymore but I got stuck with images and the such.

Strangely enough, my room, or to be more accurate, my computer desk (i.e right here) is right next to the communal lav too. The cistern refil goes on forever.

Many thanks Ghandi. I'll wear them to college tomorrow. :)

Don't come around these parts much so I do not know how you denizens would react to a "look at some cool stuff I found".  Hence I'll hide it  away here.

You know how some cinemas have free postcards and stuff?  Well I found one with a piccie that I think really stomps.  Here 'tis, along with a clicky to the artist's site.

Somebody just came over while I was listening to that to ask why I was crying, I was shaking so much with giggles. There's a certain element of shooting fish in a barrel there I suppose, but still – excellent work. Thanks!

Quote from: "Jemble Fred"excellent work. Thanks!
I third that.

Barbie fun (again)

two movies,



#1 Der Schlangemann (NSFW but funny in a purile dolls animated to have sex kind of way )


#2 The Karen Carpenter story told with Barbies

Todd Haynes
"Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story"
Film, 1987, 43 min.

With Barbie dolls as the principal actors, Superstar portrays the life of Karen Carpenter and her battle with anorexia. Haynes never secured the rights to the Carpenters' music he used in the movie, and Richard Carpenter filed an injunction that kept Superstar from public release. Even without Carpenter's court order, the film would probably have been stopped by the notoriously litigious Mattel, the makers of Barbie. - 43 minutes long FFS :)

That was great, ta.

Here's something I accidentally captured and just couldn't resist:



What a smug twat. You should've seen some of the seduce-a-mum sideways looks he was giving on that advert...

Someone please mong the shit out of this apalling image. Theres a caption compo on another (US) forum but everyones too depressed by it to say anything funny.

splattermac

edit: it looks like I've ignored your image above, I haven't, I had a ponder over it but it doesn't inspire a mong nor conversation, just contemplation and thoughts of 80's Madonna in a tank. So it wasn't a deliberate thread swerve or post stepover as so often happens on community boards.

images of Japanese Salarymen falling asleep here and there, death by overworking = Karoshi

Reminds me of the Japanese chap who made his living as a human punchbag on the streets of (probably) Tokyo, I bet some stressed out Salarymen were happy to part with some Yen just to kick the shit out of a padded man.

I was flying just the other day and with a rotten hangover I checked to see if there was a sickbag in my seatback pocket just in case, It was a plain white one so I decided to draw a picture on it and leave it there, it was just a little autobiographical stickman bemoaning the perils of foreign boozes. So coincidently I was reminded of this site and then found it earlier saying they are down to 25 finalists for their 'sickbag art' compo

One of these watches has a lie detector on it which flashes L-I-E when you are telling a porky, the other has little auto-suggestion messages to supposedly manipulate your personality, 12:52 'all your friends hate you' - 09:34 'you are an amazing person'

Jonathan Harris' 10 x 10 is an interactive exploration of the words and pictures that define the time. The grid is updated every hour with the 100 most relevant words and images based on the headlines and leading photos from the worlds primary on-line news sources. Every hour is archived and a 10 x 10 summary is also created for each day, month and year. In a sense, the project is a series of beautiful historical flash cards.

I recently took a wander around Barcelona's MNAC and although a lot of the pieces seemed to be missing 'by Rosie age 9' plaques I found a fascinating piece in one of the rooms by Andreas Siekmann (Berlin)

QuoteAll drawings contain the motif of a pair of blue jeans. These "empty jeans" sit, stand or walk, as if being worn by imaginary persons, surrounded by the city with its typical streets and structures, its businesses and offices. It is solely the specific posture of the jeans and their context that characterise their absent wearers.





The ca. 200 drawings can be divided into groups, each examining a certain aspect of the topic. By supplementing each other content-wise and by maintaining a formal unity, they indicate that they belong together. All pictures are drawn on sheets of paper in DIN-A-4 landscape format using water-colour, felt-tip pens, and paint markers. Their detailed compositions possess a strong narrative element. In relating to each other, the series appear as a picture story.

I was really impressed with these, I think I maybe saw them a bit simpler than I was supposed to, I was thinking RED Communist and BLUE Capitalist, the jeans being BLUE and the majority of the storyboards being penned in RED ink but as they progress more blue creeps in to other throw the dominant colour and then you have the reversal in a couple of strips, beautifully drawn and with no dialogue the repeating patterns and ideas take on a sort of Mayan kaleidoscope twisting little political thoughts around your mind. I normally have no time for politics but show it to me in an image and I might consider your manifesto.

I'm waffling, I liked it and recommend it.

Submission [2004]

QuoteDutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh (yes, that van Gogh) was assassinated November 2, 2004, by a 26-year-old extremist Muslim of Dutch-Moroccan descent. The current theory is that he was taken down for his critical look at the treatment of Muslim women. It's not a documentary, but a metaphorical look at the harsh realities of their lives. (In English with Dutch subtitles.)

remember the Japanese boyfriend arm pillow?



well finally the 'his' version has appeared and as expected it's a creepy thing, the 'girlfriend lap pillow'


imitationleather

Blimey, I've never rested my head on a girl's lap while she's been in that position. Wouldn't it be horribly painful for her?

I still have so much left to experience...

fanny - fannytastic!!! thought you'd lost the plot or I had, took 4 goes before it clicked - heheh!!!!

I agree. It's one of those excellent posts where you look at it and look at it and then *click*, it's very good :) I'm glad someone else had to check a few times before realising.

Haha! Sterling work there, fanny!  Took me a few minutes of staring at it quizzically before the eureka moment came :-)

gazzyk1ns

Hehe it took me a while to spot it too. The fact that the first letter of each item on the shopping list spells "Absorb" led me astray, was that deliberate?
