    I was expecting one such as this when reading the comments.

    The comments are pretty funny. I like the ones pointing out that in places like America, the humans are the most dangerous creatures running around.

    The image on the first page scared the shit out of me. Is that a vampire or a gargoyle being eaten by that snake?? Turns out it's a flying fox, yet another horrid nightmare creature in Australia.

Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Funny segment on net neutrality and a call to flood the FCC with comments. I doubt it will help, but it's fun.

    Amazing performance of Swan Lake by the Chinese State Circus... amazing what fear of a prison sentence and hard labour will do to bring the best out of performers:

    You're a fucking idiot.

    The Chinese State Circus is based out of the UK. It was created in the 1990s by Phillip Gandey. Note the banner at the top, and then look at their address at the bottom. Maybe read the paragraph in the middle if you are really ambitious.

    It's ok, I know some Chinese people so it's not racist or xenophobic to make jokes about their home country's authoritarian rule.

    Here's a dumb commercial from VW about the dangers of cell phone use while driving:

    I'm kind of happy that I don't even remember the last time I heard a cell phone ringing in a movie theater. Blabbering idiots of course aren't ever going to disappear, but at least cell phones remain mainly silent in these parts.

    A pretty funny video in any case.

    I find that a large amount of people keep their phones on during the advertisements and trailers until the "feature presentation" reel where it reminds people to turn off their phones or set them to silent.

    I'd still prefer the comfort of my own home rather than a movie theatre to avoid these people, though.

    I hate people in movie theatres; I almost always get some jackass who kicks the back of my seat and/or another ass clown that is constantly on their cell phone. It's the main reason that when I do go (which is like 2 times a year now) I sit at the back and typically away from other people and I always wait until a movie is at the end of its life in theatres so it's almost a guarantee the seating will be mostly empty...but that's hard to plan because movies hardly spend any time in theatres.

    Here's a cool website showing what a universal font would be like. It's an aggregation of hand writers all over the world:

    There are The Devil Wears Prada action figures?? Not surprised the artist is a Flip. They are a very artistically talented bunch.

    I'd be cautious using that site.

    Watching youtube clips posted by some guy named survivor030406. It's almost like following a soap opera... full of drunks and crackheads.

    I suppose you might find a use for it if you have something 5 cm long that you want to measure the angle of.

    this is awesome, an kinda disturbing if you think how it can be(or it was) used.

    Yeah, pretty cool. Though I'm sure the short video made the whole process look 500% more simple than it actually was. But that's how ads work, of course.
