I’ve mentioned these before on either here or Twitter, but I still think they’re great.

Smashing Pumpkins go all NIN on us.
Yes it’s an advert, but it’s mesmerising. If they want viewers to stop skipping ad breaks on their V+ box (ro Sky+, if you’re that way inclined), make adverts as good as this.
Part of me can’t help thinking that they should have arrested the men, but not freed the women.
This was apparently released by NASA, who are now my favourite space agency for sure.
A little bit of me is sad as this may well be the most interesting thing that ever happens to this man. Stil, great pub story.
Want to watch Hulu from the UK? Here’s how. This is probably legally dubious, so use it at your own risk.
One of the single best Parkour/Freerunning videos I’ve ever seen. The movement is incredible, the video’s well made, the soundtrack’s great, I could rave about this for ages.

A few links that distracted me in my day of doing nothing.
Ladies, if you think fitting three women in a cubical is complicated, just think what we have to go through. (thanks to @SeveralBillionM)
SO. MUCH. FUN! Where can I buy the small one?
It’s like Joseph Jackson’s wet dream.
If I ever get to use any of these in coversation, I would be so happy. (thanks to @Alyssa_Milano)

Belated bonus bank holiday braindump 31/08/09

I’ll admit it, I want that costume.
Nope, not a clue either. But I like it.
Seriously, prisoners are inventive.
I’m assuming he passed with flying colours.
Another dancing Transformer. It still makes me happy.

I just want to have them on the coffee table to tempt bravado from guests.
This is a little bit of genius.
Kind of glad I didn’t read this before I took that return flight to Canada.
Gross, but you just can’t help but want to see it.
You need to know this stuff. You’ll thank me later.
Hi. Let me introduce you to the creepiest thing ever.
Practical. And helps locals spot the tourists and know who to avoid.
This seems like an astonishingly bad idea.

No worries honey, I’ll get the parcel from the “post office.”
It’s wrong that I want most of these hoodies, isn’t it?
I’m definitely getting old. More and more board games are starting to appeal to me.
Travis Pastrana’s life makes me jealous every time I see him on TV.

I have no idea why or what, it just is.
Can’t help thinking there are other areas of life that need things like these.
For the take aways that accompany movie night.

I read about this a few years ago and it still excites me today. Can’t wait to go and see it.
Well that’s my child’s bedroom sorted. Will have to sort the whole child thing out at some point too.
Yes, I don’t need one, but I want one.
Unbelievable. Nice finish too.
Secret travelling eaterie. Apparently the food is far more gourmet than the name suggests.
More secrecy…a Twitter game. By invite only at the moment, but we know that Keving Rose is playing it and loving it.
Microsoft’s Bing is luanched. Early reports suggest goodness.

Where’re your “shields” now, Kirk?
If this is filmed on a Red One, why such low quality on the website? (yeah, like I was concerned about the camera they filmed it on)
Seriously, why aren’t you out getting rejected by women who are way too hot for you?
Friday afternoons at Google are a distinct benefit to all of us. Yes, this falls into the awesome catagory.
Nice idea, but I can’t help thinking the people this is designed for might just deserve it. Natural selection and all that.
I’m not sure why exactly I would ever need these, but I want some none the less. Just to scatter about the place, perhaps.
So that’s how they made it. I’m assuming you’ve seen the original. If not, check it out first.
Wow.
Money for writing? Ingenius idea.
