    Got this in my B3TA newsletter this week.. excellent stuff!
    >> We are all monkeys <<

    Last year, a chap called Ernest Cline gave a rather amusing speech about the state of the world today and how we are all just a bunch of monkeys. He's made a slideshow too. Excellent stuff , somewhat reminiscent of Douglas Adams.

    Watch it here!
    Quite insightful really... unlike this which was in the same newsletter, Britain's entry for the Eurovision this year:
    >> Eurovision is for kids? <<

    ..And speaking of jokes past their prime, onto the Eurovision Song Contest, and we're loving this year's UK entry. Daz Sampson has produced a touchingly nostalgic tribute to his school days, complete with a nonce-friendly "lets dress some tarts up in school uniform" video. It's that he looks about 38 that makes it all look so sinister.

    Witness the horror here

    Yep, horrible but probably still would've hammered the McCaul's last year! :D

    Good to see the spaghetti monster getting some exposure... all HAIL the spaghetti monster, may we all be touched by his noodly appendage.

    And the little bit at the end was inspired, 'all images were obtained via images.google.com and used without permission'

    Well the first video is actually brilliant and absolutely true. Well done to him. People should pay attention to it.


    The second one is hilarious. Couldn't watch teh whole think though, it still hurt to watch it.

    Why is it that, with all those bloody videos posted here, the crappier they are the harder it is to get the damn f***ing song out of your head...?

    Also, what's b3ta....?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    The first video is great and nicely true, especially about the fact that we're the only species on this planet that looks for a meaning to life, that needs to be happy, that needs to have a purpose.

    The second video.......well the UK isn't going to win Eurovision this year, I can safely say.
