“Rise of the Idiots”, by Dan Ashcroft

Just popped out for lunch in Shoreditch. Reminded me of this. I think they’re now called “Hispters”.

Scene from the excellent “Nathan Barley” series in which Dan Ashcroft gives a commentary on the rise of the idiot classes. Many people think this rant is the exposition of co-creator Chris Morris’s own feelings on popular culture.

WIN! Owl Transforms Into Battle Mode

Posted: July 9th, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Funny, General | Tags: , , | View Comments

Owls are generally pretty cool but this Southern White-faced Owl is like a final boss in a video game. When he sees potential enemies, he transforms into one of two battle modes.

In the first, he puffs himself up, bugs out his eyes, and squats like some kind of battle tank.

But when he’s facing a really big foe, he stands up straight, squints his eyes, and brings one wing around him like Dracula’s cape.

Trust me, you’ll say “Whoa.”

Transformer Owl, I choose YOU!

One balloon and a couple of evenings after work — Dyson engineers show how inducement and entrainment works on the Air Multiplier™ fan.

You can do this yourself – if you’re willing to spend about $30,000 on fans.

Iceland, Eyjafjallajökull – May 1st and 2nd, 2010 from Sean Stiegemeier on Vimeo.

Another stunning video shot on the Canon 5D, this time of the active volcano in Iceland.

Sean Stiegemeier was inspired to get out and shoot the event after the saw all the ‘mediocre pictures’ being shown on tv.

Great colour. Great music. Love it.
