The scurrying escapades of John the Squirrel
Posted: 1st November 2011 by Age in RamblingsTags: cats, madness, squirrel
This was one of those moments where I wished I had the ability to take pictures or video with my eyes. One day, they’ll invent that and you won’t miss out on hilarious stuff like this. My wife and I were going out. I can’t remember where now, but it doesn’t matter. As I was [...]
Previously, I wrote about this – ‘Smart-ass responses to idiotic graffiti.’ In Norwich, there’s a chap, who has pretty much gone around the whole City tagging ‘Shook’ everywhere. Apparently someone doesn’t think much of him. Made me laugh.
How to prank a work colleague
Posted: 12th October 2011 by Age in RamblingsTags: How to prank a work colleague
Obviously, the following only works if you work in an office, with people that can take a joke and are not ruled by a boss who is a nazi dictator. You’ll also need to know your colleague’s username and password. The concept is simple. Colleague has speakers attached to their computer and they require a [...]
Mustachio makes even the most boring website amusing
Posted: 5th October 2011 by Age in RamblingsTags: chrome, moustche
I love Mustachio, it makes the web even more hilarious. I’ve got pretty much every browser under the sun at work – it’s part of my job after all. Safari, IE, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, IE tester, blah, blah, blah, each has it’s own use but all get used at one point or another. Chrome has a [...]

The internet is a wonderful place. Full of wonder, magic, pixies and other stuff. Yesterday I was stumbling about when I discovered this page entitled “20 of the funniest texts auto correct sexual texts.” (NSFW) It had me chortling very very loudly. I shared it with my wife and she laughed so much she cried. [...]
Oh Battlefield, how I missed you…
Posted: 3rd October 2011 by Age in RamblingsTags: battlefield 3, bf3, MW3
The epic win that is Battlefield is about to return with Battlefield 3. Anyone who loves a good FPS is already aware and probably playing the beta. There’s been lots of reviews, whisperings, whinings, jabberings and such about it. So I won’t harp on about it’s various elements – just go and try the beta. [...]
The results are in. Apparently, my tests show that I have approximately 58,000,000 sperms perm ml and the doctor has ‘no concerns’ about the little blighters! Good work! I was quite proud until I did a little investigation… “Next year marks the 20th anniversary of the WHO conference where a Danish scientist first alerted the [...]
Legitimate wank for the sake of my marriage (contains TMI)
Posted: 27th August 2011 by Age in RamblingsTags: sperm test
You might remember a few months back, I mentioned having to go for a sperm test, then we got pregnant, so it was cancelled. Then we miscarried, so it was back on. So today, I had to do the deed and have a legitimate wank for the sake of my marriage. God, it was awful. [...]
Last night we were watching the Top Ten Inbetweeners Moments (bus wankers) and it was a good show ruined by idiots. The show featured a number of “guests” commenting on their favourite parts of the show, including Jimmy Carr and Anthony Head (fair enough) but they also had a number of twonks on their from [...]
