Quality jokes Jan 6, 06, 2:06 a.m.

Need to laugh, so give me your best, relatively short jokes, I'll start...

A man wants to have his penis enlarged, so he goes to a specialist who recommends a new procedure of attaching an elephant's trunk to the end of his member. The man goes for it and ends up with a massive penis.

One day, while eating dinner at his girlfriend's, his penis reaches up from under the table, grabs a bun and slides back down under the table. The girlfriend is amazed. "That's incredible", she says, "Can you do it again?" The man replies, "I'd love to, but I don't think my arse can handle another cake right now".

Is it me or is Blanka preying on the stereotypical obsessive nature of the designer? is this gonna be some sort of weird design geeky street code...

Geek A:
"Hey look they've got the NB:Studio bag"

Geek B:
"I prefer my Multistorey one though, and at £15 this design self gratification, holds just one fifth of my groceries, I'll need six to deal with my big shop"

Blanka: "cher-ching"

Recycled british... Jun 25, 08, 3:16 a.m.

Can you think of anything that belongs to other countries, but have in a sense been hijacked and become part of British culture...

A couple of loose example might be...
Lambretta/Vespa: Italian, but because of it's place in UK popular culture (Mods) it can be seen as a kind of symbol of British-ness

The Balti: A Pakistani food, associated with England (Birmingham etc)

Any more things

iTunes 9 Sep 11, 09, 4:15 a.m.

On previous versions of iTunes when you clicked on the green button it use to minimize the player to a nice little size, so it could sit comfortable out of the way of all the other program windows, why has Apple stopped this?!

Do you think the reason you have become a designer, photographer, artist...etc is because you have a creative background, are/were your parents any of the above?

Sandwich Polotics Nov 28, 05, 3:54 a.m.

I have just been having a bizarre argument with a friend over sandwiches, he claims that if a sandwich is cut in half it becomes two sandwiches, but I think not ...for instance when you buy a pre-packed sandwich from a shop you buy one sandwich cut in half, you wouldn’t call it two sandwiches?! however my friend came back with...well what about when you’re at a buffet and someone asks you to get them a sandwich you have one sandwich cut into little triangles, you’d get them one little triangle and that would constitute one sandwich? I kind of agreed but only because of the context in which the sandwich is in(buffet) weird I know but we couldn’t come to an agreement.
