We hate mackems

A little something to cheer us Toon lads up after the week that we have had to endure. Mackems - A video from toongoals featuring highlights of our battles with the great unwashed. The video is only up for a short while, all will be explained on the site.

Adding "On This Day" v2 to Blogger

I've just updated the "On this day" Blogger hack and it's How To page. If you don't know what I'm talking about look at the Date header up there ^.

New features include the addition of the BBC page and the easier ability to make the output look they way you want it.

Scream stolen from Norway museum

The BBC are reporting that Munch's Scream has been stolen from a Norwegian museum by armed robbers. Don't worry though as you can always view our 'iconic' version secure in the knowledge it won't be stolen. Probably.

IRC Images

Does exactly what it says on the tin. The IRC Images site scrapes IRC channels for images then displays them in a web stylee.

Be warned: Because of the nature of the beast that is IRC the randomness of the images shown will vary from the mindnumbingly mundane to the shockingly explicit with the occasional peek into the inner workings of a psychopath's mind. Probably. Pr0n photoshops seem to be a bit popular.

The link itself is SFW - it takes you to a disclaimer page which warns you repeatedly aboput possible nastiness and ends with:
You are only permitted to enter this site if you have read the information above, and promise not to later say "You didn't warn me!", or "I thought that warning was a joke!".

Looks quite cool and there are more features in development.

BugMeNot back soon!

When BugMeNot disappeared the other day no one knew what had happened to it. The BugMeNot author has surfaced on the MozillaZine forums and announced BugMeNot will be back soon. Yay!

His host had pulled the plug but he's now sorted out another host at nearlyfreespeech.net and will be back soon. In addition to that the discussion has turned to thinking of ways to distribute the passwords so BugMeNot can't be taken out as easily in future. Which is nice.

Oh and in other news... Google launches self for a change. Shit fast linkage from New Links as usual. Oops.

Vertical Buttons

It appears there is a new link button type about to get popular on sites. Move over skinny buttons the Vert is in town.

So the question is before I start redoing the sidebar do we go for the older, not quite as trendy now skinny buttons or do we go for the geet trendy as fsck Verts?

DC Flyby

More isometric pixellated goodness. This time it's a Washington DC Flyby - or in other words an isometric graphic map of Washington DC with clicky info bits. We should do one of these for the toon.

mmmmm.... sangers...

New Links presents the 'Fat Darrell', a sandwich, which is made with chicken fingers, mozzarella sticks and french fries. The sanger been crowned the best sandwich in the America by Maxim magazine.

I'm just waiting for a fried egg butty, but I don't think it'll clog my ateries sufficiently. So here's a nice topic for mass debate this morning that everyone can join in! Sandwiches. MmmmChronic and I have a very local deli, which does fine sangers. My current favourite would be either Salami and Egg Mayo, or Chicken, Bacon and Avacado. Or Chicken, Bacon and Cheese. What's yours? The winner will be chosen for our lunch today! Maybe.

Monkey Portraits

Yay for monkeys! This one is just what it says on the tin - portraits of monkeys. The only gripe is there aren't enough.

`Get VlAG`RA at NO C0S`T

...just get it online with your NHS prescription.

The BBC is reporting that internet pharmacies get go-ahead to open in the UK after a relaxation of rules on the location of new pharmacies. Does that mean even more spam offering prescription drugs at a l0w, l0w prise?

Doom 3 Sales Affected By Piracy - Not!

All the hooha about the pirate release of Doom 3 ruining sales proved to be just that - hooha. Doom 3 is top of the UK PC sales chart and, according to the beeb, based on sales to date is the 5th fastest selling PC game in the UK ever - despite being widely available over a week before release. So a lot of hot air generated over nothing then.

Big List O' Shit Sites

...or sites that make Mozilla sad.

The linked page is list of sites that either actively prevent Mozilla browsers reading them or are so badly designed they just break totally or partially. Our old friend the Odeon site is of course in the list. Got any more?

BIKINI BOUNCE

Continuing our 5318008 theme day, it's BIKINI BOUNCE

This is from the same people who brought you the German test yesterday.

They also do a neat game called beachsquirter and another one called Toxic Blaster which is for the WWF. The pandas, fools, not the wrestlers! So save the world, and have fun at the same time!

What Would Jeebus Do?

More sexual hijinks with nuns. 12 American nuns aged between 22 & 31 allegedly went wild on a Club 18-30 holiday after binging on booze and sleeping with up to 43 men between them.

I think this is absolutely disgraceful. A 31 year old should not be allowed to go on a Club 18-30 holiday.

So what would Jeebus do? Neck a slab of lager and start porking I reckon.

Medieval (and earlier) Maps of Britain

Interesting little collection of maps of Britain from the Roman era throught to medieval times. The main reason I've linked it though is because there is a map of Northumbria in the 8th Century which shows the extent of this soon to be reborn kingdom.

That should stop all this Northumberland / Northumbria confusion. ;)

Sharron Davies the official web site

I knew it. She is permanently thinking about sex. It's...

Sharron Davies : the official web site

Q : Stockings or hold ups?

A : Stockings definately.
It has a gallery of the saucy minx in her shreddies too, but no photos of her from the Olympics coverage yet. Booo!

Toogle Image Search

And what exactly is a Toogle Image Search? It's a Google Image Search which gets the 1st image result returned for a search term (like boobies) and asciiises it.

Looks like our dogs has turned up too!

New Links Olympic Coverage

I'm afraid we've been a bit lax in our coverage of the Greatest Gaming Event Known To Man (probably) having only had an Olympics inspired Flash game and erm... nowt else. So without further ado here's some Olympics coverage.

As we are banned from linking directly to the Official Olympics site you will just have to make do with Olympic Babes 2004.

Men with Breasts #325267

Speaking of fetishes, we first featured "men with breasts back in November on New Links, and it's been one of our most popular search requests with you tinternet porvs ever.

Anyways.. you'll be interested in this program that's on Channel Four tonight, which will be...
Exploring the secret world of the not uncommon, yet rarely discussed, physical condition of gynaecomastia, an over-development of male breast tissue.
N.B. It seems our image host is down at the moment... sorry!

One for emetophiliacs

Yes for those of you out there with a vomit fetish comes Vomit Online.com with lots of pictures, videos and sound clips of people spewing.

The most amazing thing about the site is that it is a pay site - people pay for this! If you were bulimic this could be a nice little earner to pay for your therapy sessions.

I never promised you a Zen Garden...

Here's a lovely little thing from Mark Light. It's The Zen Garden. Drag the rake about and find enlightenment.

And while we're on the subject of Zen here's another site [CSS Zen Garden] that shows how cool CSS style sheets are. The HTML stays the same, but if you clicky the links down the side of the page, you load a new style sheet and then you can marvel at the lovely design!
