==================================

Strange "They're Mean to Me" Quotes:

I'm not Jacko, I'm Jackson... 'Wacko Jacko' - Where did that come from? Some English tabloid. I have a heart and I have feelings. I feel that when you do that to me, it's not nice. - Michael Jackson

People have been so busy relating to how I look, it's a miracle I didn't become a self-conscious blob of protoplasm. - Robert Redford

People say I'm extravagant because I want to be surrounded by beauty. But tell me, who wants to be surrounded by garbage? - Imelda Marcos

I can't get no respect.- Rodney Dangerfield

They have vilified me, they have crucified me, yes, they have even criticized me. - Richard J. Daley

==================================

Today's Featured Humor : -) - Oreo Personality Test


Psychologists have discovered that the manner in which people eat Oreo cookies provides great insight into their personalities. Choose which method best describes your favorite method of eating Oreos:

1. The whole thing all at once.
2. One bite at a time.
3. Slow and methodical nibbles examining the results of each bite afterward.
4. In little feverous nibbles.
5. Dunked in some liquid (milk, coffee...).
6. Twisted apart, the inside, then the cookie.
7. Twisted apart, the inside, and toss the cookie.
8. Just the cookie, not the inside.
9. I just like to lick them, not eat them.
10. I don't have a favorite way because I don't like Oreo.


Your Personality:

1. The whole thing. This means you consume life with abandon, you are fun to be with, exciting, carefree with some hint of recklessness. You are totally irresponsible. No one should trust you with their children.

2. One bite at a time. You are lucky to be one of the 5.4 billion other people who eat their Oreos this very same way. Just like them, you lack imagination, but that's okay, not to worry, you're normal.

3. Slow and methodical. You follow the rules. You're very tidy and orderly. You're very meticulous in every detail with every thing you do to the point of being anal retentive and irritating to others. Stay out of the fast lane if you're only going to go the speed limit.

4. Feverous nibbles. Your boss likes you because you get your work done quickly. You always have a million things to do and never enough time to do them. Mental breakdowns and suicides run in your family. Valium and Ritalin would do you good.

5. Dunked. Every one likes you because you are always up beat. You like to sugar coat unpleasant experiences and rationalize bad situations into good ones. You are in total denial about the shambles you call a life. You have a propensity towards narcotic addiction.

6. Twisted apart, the inside, and then the cookie. You have a highly curious nature. You take pleasure in breaking things apart to find out how they work, though not always able to put them back together, so you destroy all the evidence of your activities. You deny your involvement when things go wrong. You are a compulsive liar and exhibit deviant, if not criminal, behavior.

7. Twisted apart, the inside, and then toss the cookie. You are good at business and take risk that pay off. You take what you want and throw the rest away. You are greedy, selfish, mean, and lack feelings for others. You should be ashamed of yourself. But that's ok, you don't care, you got yours.

8. Just the cookie, not the inside. You enjoy pain.

9. I just like to lick them, not eat them. Stay away from small furry animals and seek professional medical help - immediately.

10. I don't have a favorite way, I don't like Oreo cookies. You probably come from a rich family, and like to wear nice things, and go to up-scale restaurants. You are particular and fussy about the things you buy, own, and wear. Things have to be just right. You like to be pampered. You are a prim. Nobody likes you.

: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS WEEK
Lots of things, oh yes, stuff

>> Cassetteboy vs The Apprentice <<
Casetteboy hits Alan Sugar's shuffle button to
create an improved edit of the reality show
tycoon. Not quite safe for work, and so popular
already that we've been emailed it ten times
since Casetteboy posted it on our links board.

Joel sings a proud song, he sings of the

: QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Impulse buys

Inspired by your Ginger Fuhrer's purchase of a
trampoline that completely filled his garden,
we asked for the stupid things you've bought on
impulse:
http://b3ta.com/questions/impulsebuys/

Here's a list of the choicer items:

* 400 self-adhesive goggly eyes
* A full size dalek
* 1,000 cocktail umbrellas
* A replica Storm Trooper suit
* 5,000 kitchen cupboard doors
* A pub
* A life-sized statue of Lara Croft
* A replica US Army 1840s revolver
* A ghillie suit
* A set of deep purple satin bedsheets
* A 6-berth motorhome (off a man in a pub)
* A 12-disc Worzel Gummidge DVD box set
* 1,500 square metres of granite tiles
* A commemorative Eric Bristow plate

and

* The skeletal remains of a nineteenth-century
artist's model called Jo

>> This Week's Question <<
There you are, minding you own business when
**SURPRISE TODGER**... Tell us of unexpected
encounters with nudity:
http://b3ta.com/questions/unexpectednudity/

-------------------------------------------------

: SITES IN BRIEF
Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates

>> Memes without content <<
Here are the anonymous rooms where they
performed the crazy comedy you sent on to your
friends. See how many you can get - we were
surprised how easy it is.
http://waxy.org/2009/05/memescenery/

>> Potato Portraits <<
Ginou Choueiri paints amazing portraits on
potatoes because "Not only is their skin porous
like ours, but their skin texture and colour is
very similar." Also, you have to cut the eyes
out before you cook them.
http://snurl.com/potatoshops

>> Explosions & boobs <<
Save valuable time watching Hollywood
blockbusters; simply reload the page to see
more pics of breasts and things blowing up.
http://www.explosionsandboobs.com/

>> Star Wars first draft <<
Mystery Man dug through the George Lucas
archives to find the original draft of The Star
Wars. And it's quite the turd. Amazing how many
of the rubbish ideas trimmed from this made it
into the latter three Star Wars products.
http://snurl.com/starwarsalpha

-------------------------------------------------

: VIDEO SCHMIDEO
It's like VHS 2.0

>> Cool optical illusion <<
One of the disturbing things about running B3ta
for so damn long is seeing our contributors
age: Zefrank is still producing excellent and
amusing content but his eyebrows are going grey
and his skin is sallow. Poor chap, maybe a
holiday would help.
http://vimeo.com/4791698

>> Biscuit-man vs chatlines <<
If you've ever pressed the channel up button on
your TV above the numbers that actually have
proper programming on them you'll have found
those weird video chat lines where tarty young
ladies are waiting for gentleman callers. Our
friend in this case subverts them by keeping the
subject off sex and on biscuits - although
personally we prefer to exercise our
sociopathic tendencies by wiping snot on door
handles.
http://channelbee.com/move/gags#2631

>> 1964 Antique MODEM Live Demo <<
The first modem we ever saw was in 1985 - an
acoustic coupler connected to an Amstrad CPC,
playing British Telecom's Multi User Dungeon.
Like an ASCII World of Warcraft it knocked up a
£400 phone bill for our school friend. We had
no idea that even in the 80s, this was a 20
year old technology. Watch and learn, children:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9dpXHnJXaE

>> Hello Cleveland! <<
Comedy Basics 101: writing feel-good songs
about provincial towns is funny. Try it
yourself.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZzgAjjuqZM

>> Spiderman vs pigeons <<
People who do street mine are pillocks who
deserve everything they get - including this
fine bit of bird seed-based pwnage.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76ysrKF3tBI

>> One Line on the Sopranos <<
You probably don't remember Erik Weiner's
performance in The Sopranos. His single line
was, "Leon, take your break at two." Erik is
now stretching out his small moment of fame,
for comic effect, and thereby making himself
much more famous as a result. Clever stuff,
Erik.

: WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?

Follow-ups on previous stories.

* STOLEN VIDEO - "I can't believe some yank
STOLE the video I filmed especially for the
links board and won $600!" yells
combatcameraman. "Luckily, the b3tards were
straight on it. I've got in touch and am going
to try and claim the money back as it's
rightfully mine."
http://b3ta.com/links/Is_this_stolen

* COVER VERSION - "Since posting my first few
mashup 'Cover Version' album covers on here a
couple of months ago it's kinda gone global -
in no small part to the enthusiasm of you
boarders and having them featured in the
newsletter," chirps little pixel. "Just wanted
to say thank to everyone for motivating me to
do more and for the exposure. They are on the
cover of trade mag 'Design Week' as of today as
well as being featured in Wired and GQ's
webbysites."

-------------------------------------------------

: STAR IN NEXT WEEK'S ISSUE

Make something cool and tell us about it. If
you are in it then people will see your stuff.

This week we asked all the people who follow
your Ginger Fuhrer on twitter (@robmanuel, some
shit nabbed @b3ta) for suggestions:

* DE-HANCING FILMS - "re-edit a CGI-fest to
make it look shoddy + fun. Add strings to space
ships, replace any CGI with claymation." We
suggest Tron. (via @ricomonkeon)

* VERBSWAPR - "Poet Ross Sutherland once
swapped every verb in Little Red Riding Hood
for the one below it in the dictionary. More of
this, plz." What about an automatic tool that
works with URLs? (via @gomark)

* MICROWAVE MODS - "Can you turn a microwave
into some kind of slow-acting raygun by turning
it inside out?" (via @bounder)

And special mention to Gidleys who asks, "Can
someone please code something that enables me
to load the newsletter with all the Joel Veitch
stuff removed?" Oooh meany!

Send contributions via the mail form.
http://www.b3ta.com/mailus/

BTW: If you've sent something in that hasn't
been featured then don't be put off - we look
at everything you send us.

THANKS:

This issue was written by Rob Manuel with David

Floppy Donkey & @dxtr Additional linkage and
image challenge by Fraser Lewry. Mike Trinder

TESCO VALUE TOP TIP:

Mong the Merciless explains, "Simply use
Tesco's self-service scanners and enter any
random number for 'own bags used' - voila, free
clubcard points. It seems to work with no
problems up to one bag per item bought. My
record is 150 for a packet of chewing gum - it
beeped and some nice employee just came over
and hit override without even looking so I
still go the points.

"Forget the image challenge, I want, nay
demand, to see who can get the most free
clubcard points with this method. Remember
folks, scan and post the receipt as without
pics it never happened."

-------------------------------------------------

SICKIPEDIA:
Some random woman stopped me in the street
today and started telling me a joke. It had all
the ingredients of a good joke: child abuse,
incestual rape, tears and suffering; but I
didn't understand the punchline. Something
about £2 a month? (nobodys hero)

==================================

Strange "Military" Quotes:

"Do not touch anything unnecessarily. Beware of pretty girls in dance halls and parks who may be spies, as well as bicycles, revolvers, uniforms, arms, dead horses, and men lying on roads -- they are not there accidentally." - Soviet infantry manual, issued in the 1930's

One of the serious problems in planning the fight against American doctrine, is that the Americans do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligation to follow their doctrine...- From a Soviet Junior Lt's Notebook

"The best tank terrain is that without anti-tank weapons." -Russian military doctrine.

..At a prewar diplomatic conference, the Nazi Foreign Minister Ribbentrop "sniffed" to Eden and Churchill that if there was another war, the Italians would be on Germany's side!
To which Churchill supposedly replied: "that seems only fair, we had them last time!"...

"The reason the American Army does so well in wartime, is that war is chaos, and the American Army practices it on a daily basis." - from a post-war debriefing of a German General

Memorial Day Toasts & Quotes

"To her we drink, for her we pray, our voices silent never.
For her we'll fight -- let come what may, The Stars and Stripes forever."

"Here's to the Army and Navy, and the battles they have won. Here's to America's colors-- The colors that never run!"

"May the tree of liberty flourish round the globe, and every human being partake of its fruits."

"May noise never excite us to battle, or confusions reduce us to defeat."

==================================

Today's Featured Humor : -) - EULOGY FOR A VETERAN


Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.


I am the Gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush of
quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.

Terminate the Rate

this, some forward thinking types including BT

-------------------------------------------------

: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS WEEK
Toasters, Voices, Fat Cats

>> Lion toaster <<
Joel Veitch regrets his recent purchase of a
toaster manufactured by lions. He elaborates
through the medium of song:
http://rathergood.com/toaster

>> Impersonations <<
"I'm always behind the animation doing my
impersonations," complains Terry Mynott. "So
here is my ugly mug." By some ungodly wizardry,
he's able to make his voice sound exactly like
somebody else's. Probably sold his soul to
Satan. Anyway, we'd really really like to see
more of his Shawshank Redemption redub.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Impersonations

>> Lol fat cats <<
Nicolas Roope, best-known for having an
enormous Nordic beard - has been combo-ing up
the locat meme with satiric intent. In theory
we hate it, but in practise it made us grin.
Much like Roope's beard.
http://lolfatcats.com/

>> Beyoncé's unseen Nintendo DS advert <<
Defying Darwin reveal the Beyoncé endorsement
that the lawyers didn't want you to see. NSFW,
if your boss has particularly sharp eyesight.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Beyonces_unseen_nintendo_ds_advert

>> "Buy me a boat" <<
"I'm gonna become a the Simon Le Bon of le
comedy," brags John Hopkins. He and his chums
vow to beat the recession by buying a yacht on
credit, sailing it to Edinburgh and using the
ticket money to pay back the boat shop. Will
they make it? Or, more likely, will they drown?
http://www.b3ta.com/links/With_Sails_and_I

-------------------------------------------------

: QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Bullies

Last week we asked for your, frankly shocking,
stories of bullying:
http://b3ta.com/questions/bullies/

* FISH FACE - "My dad was a policeman and told
me of a man who'd been brought in regarding a
crime the police knew he was responsible for.
He refused to budge from his story and the
decision was made to apply a little 'pressure'
to ensure the required outcome. One of the
coppers was a member of the police diving squad
and just happened to have his wetsuit and gear
with him. Someone was sent down to the pier.
The accused was left alone in the interview
room for a while. And then... the door opened
to reveal a frogman in full kit, flippers and
facemask, carrying a large fish. The questions
were posed again, but this time each
'incorrect' answer came with a mighty wet fish
slap around the chops. Eventually the chap
coughed to the crime and it all went to court.
Once on the stand, the defendant withdrew his
confession as it had been made under duress,
and explained the situation surrounding it. The
judge had him sent off for psychiatric
assessment." (chickenlady)

* FROGS, SNAILS, PUPPYDOG TAILS - "I'm half
French and so I had the usual taunts of 'frog'
through primary school. One day whilst enduring
the (by now slightly stale) jibes about 'eating
snails', one of the more ape-like older boys
thrust one under my nose. 'Fuck it,' I thought.
So I ate it. It wasn't too bad as I recall. Bit
crunchy - I've since learnt not to eat the
shells." (mrgibbles)

* SICK AND TIRED - "A four year-old Rakky is
sat on the school bus, wearing her boater and
gymslip, heading off to another day at the hell
hole school she'd been sent to. And like every
day, as soon as the bus doors closed and my
mother's tearful face slid out of view, the
girl from my class, the stupid, popular, rich
one would start on me. "Give me your jotter,
what's the matter, cry baby, going to tell
teacher?" On and on it went, every single day
until one day I could take no more. So, pulling
myself up to the full height that only a four
year-old can muster, I prepared to unleash a
salvo of such terrifying force that even the
gods themselves would stop to listen... And I
vomited on her. Didn't mean to, it just kind of
fell out. Left me alone after that, though.
Stupid bitch." (Rakky)

>> This Week's Question <<
This week your Ginger Fuhrer bought a
trampoline that was almost bigger than his
garden. Make him feel better by telling us
about your impulse buys:
http://b3ta.com/questions/impulsebuys/

-------------------------------------------------

: SITES IN BRIEF
Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates

>> Cake lego <<
Cake made of lego and lego made of cake. It's a
mixed-up, muddled-up, shook-up world. Except
for lego.
http://is.gd/ALiW

>> Flash electronic music generator <<
Save money by cluttering your screen, not your
room, with inexplicable but exciting-looking
lumps of electronic gubbins. You could be the
next Technotronic!
http://www.hobnox.com/audiotool

>> Kanyefy the web <<
Make every site like the Kanye West blog, with
this handy one-button solution.
http://fffff.at/kanyefy-text-bookmarklet/

>> How to use Twitter for marketing and PR <<
The Web 2.0 adman's holy grail explained.
Although in our experience, Twitter is the most
effective marketing tool... only for Twitter.
http://www.howtousetwitterformarketingandpr.com/

>> Vintage porn interiors <<
Watch one porno and you've pretty much seen
them all, in terms of naked dangly bits. But
check out the wallpaper! We suspect this is how
ladies think when we try to get them to watch
dirty movies with us.
http://snurl.com/pronbackgrounds

-------------------------------------------------

: VIDEO SCHMIDEO
Which this week we're subbing to 'yideo'

>> Czech novelty pop <<
Delve into eastern Europe's murky past with a
seventies ditty from what is clearly the 20th
century's most mental musical combo. It'd be
comedy gold even without the sound.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/Pure_Comedy_Gold

>> Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus <<
From the scant clues, we figure this is a film
where a gigantic shark meets, and possibly
comes into conflict with, an enormous octopus.
Fans of this sort of Z-movie action might also
enjoy tracking down Megalodon, which stars a
young John Barrowman and a colossal CGI shark.
http://bit.ly/14xMrs

>> 5 second films <<
Ludicrously short comic sketches; keep hitting
'Random for more lols. "Robodog, walk!"
http://5secondfilms.com/watch/robodog

>> Whack-a-kitty <<
Please hammer, don't hurt them.
http://www.b3ta.com/links/whack_a_kitty

>> A message from the Queen <<
Britain's head of state finally speaks her mind
to the nation.
http://b3ta.com/links/Ladies_gentlemen_Her_Majesty_the_Queen

>> Nazis on the moon <<
In 1945 the nazis fled to the moon. In 2018
they are coming back. Now THAT'S a film pitch.
http://www.ironsky.net/

>> Sorry I'm late <<
Arty bit of stop-motion whimsey, in a lying on
the floor and wobbling pillows about stylee.
http://www.sorry-im-late.com/watch.html

: B3TA IMAGE CHALLENGE

Results from the Reinventing the Wheel

Last week we wanted you to invent
pointless new stuff to replace perfectly
old good stuff.

Your favourites included:

* CATFLAP - upgrade your cat's life with this
useful bit of intergalactic kit (2 Can Chunder)
http://www.b3ta.com/board/9450292

* LEGO - entirely feasible yet completely
rubbish Jenga update (op)
http://www.b3ta.com/board/9446748

* TRUMP - summing up the challenge perfectly:
expensive and stupid, and probably in

http://www.b3ta.com/board/9456399

All these images, and the highest as voted by
you can be found here:
http://www.b3ta.com/challenge/reinventingthewheel/

>> New challenge: Letter Art <<
This week we'd like you to make an animal or a
celebrity, or something generally

punctuation. It's like making ascii art, but
using Photoshop.
http://www.b3ta.com/challenge/letterart/

-------------------------------------------------

: STAR IN NEXT WEEK'S ISSUE

Make something cool and tell us about it. If
you are in it then people will see your stuff.

This week we asked people on twitter what
they'd like to see:

* KITTY SHITTY TWITTY - RFID tag your cat & set
it up to tweet every time it uses the litter
tray. It'll be huge, twitterers will follow any
old shit. (via @bounder)

* IMDOLLATED HEROES - Build dolls of famously
immolated people, then set them on fire and
film it. (via @Ikebox)

* YOUPAIDFORIT.COM - Take photos of MPs' homes
and make a 'Home Beautiful' style blog to
feature all the nice things we paid for.
(via @bloggerheads)

TOP TIP TESCO HACK:

Want to book a delivery from Tesco more than
two weeks ahead? Simply edit the URL in their
dumb-ass web-site. Click a future date range
and you get a page with a URL including
"week=1" or "week=2". There's no link to
anything further ahead, but it works up to
week=5 by simply editing the page address. So
you can book your groceries to arrive the
morning you get back from your 3-week holiday.

You can always reason with a German. You can always reason with a barnyard animal, too, for all the good it does. - P. J. O'Rourke "Holidays in Hell"
