I don't necessarily agree with everything I say. - Marshall McLuhan

I never know how much of what I say is true. - Bette Midler

I have nothing intelligent to say. - Meg Tilly, when approached by a TV reporter asking questions on her way into the 1997 Oscar ceremonies.

I am not denying anything I did not say. -Brian Mulrooney

I really didn't say everything I said. - Yogi Berra

I'm a meathead. I can't help it, man. You've got smart people and you've got dumb people. - Keanu Reeves

My movies were the kind they show in prisons and airplanes, because nobody can leave. -Burt Reynolds

I'm no actor, and I have sixty-four pictures to prove it. - Victor Mature

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

Today's Featured Humor : -) - - Scary Psychological Test

Read this question, come up with an answer, and then scroll down to the bottom for the result. This is not a trick question. It is as it reads. No one I know has gotten it right - including me.

A woman, while at the funeral of her own mother, met this guy whom she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing, She believed him to be her dream and she fell in love with him right there but did not ask for his number and no matter how hard she tried shecould not find him.

A few days later she killed her sister.

Question: What is her motive in killing her sister?



Give this some thought before you answer.


(Scroll Down)
















Answer:

She was hoping that the guy would appear at the funeral again.

If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath. This was a test by a famous American Psychologist used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer.

Many arrested serial killers took part in the test and answered the question correctly. If you didn't answer the question correctly - good for you.

If you got the answer correct, please let me know so I can take you off of my email list unless that will tick you off, then I'll just be extra nice to you from now on.

Strange Quotes by W. C. Fields

I always keep a supply of stimulant handy in case I see a snake--which I also keep handy.

Reminds me of my safari in Africa. Somebody forgot the corkscrew and for several days we had to live on nothing but food and water.

I am free of all prejudice. I hate everyone equally.

I cook with wine, sometimes I even add it to the food.

I like children - fried.

I never drink water because of the disgusting things that fish do in it.

Start every day off with a smile and get it over with.

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Then quit. There's no point in being a damn fool about it.

A rich man is nothing but a poor man with money.

A woman drove me to drink and I didn't even have the decency to thank her.

Abstaining is favorable both to the head and the pocket.

Ah, the patter of little feet around the house. There's nothing like having a midget for a butler.

All the men in my family were bearded, and most of the women.

Always carry a flagon of whiskey in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake.

Anyone who hates children and animals can't be all bad.

Attitude is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what people do or say. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.

Children should neither be seen or heard from - ever again.

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

Today's Featured Humor : -) - Why? Why? Why?


Why does the sun lighten our hair, but darken our skin?
Why can't women put on mascara with their mouth closed?
Why doesn't glue stick to the inside of the bottle?
Why don't you ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery?"
Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?
Why is a boxing ring square?
Why is it called lipstick if you can still move your lips?
Why is it considered necessary to nail down the lid of a coffin?
Why is it that doctors call what they do "practice"?
Why is it that rain drops but snow falls?
Why is it that to stop Windows 95 or 98, you have to click on "Start?"
Why is it that when you're driving and looking for an address, you turn down the volume on the radio?
Why is lemon juice made with artificial flavor, and dishwashing liquid made with real lemons?
Why is the man who invests all your money called a broker?
Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called rush hour?
Why is the word dictionary in the dictionary?
Why isn't there mouse-flavored cat food?
You know that little indestructible black box that is used on planes, why can't they make the whole plane out of the same substance?
Can fat people go skinny-dipping?
Why do you need a driver's license to buy liquor when you can't drink and drive?

:  PRIMUS UK TOUR

  (Hell yes! A real sponsored link!)


 Primus opens up a portal to their weird Primus

 psychedelic world this June, touring London,

 Manchester and Birmingham. Two sets: One of

 oddball classics and the other exploring their

 re-imagining of Charlie and the Chocolate

 Factory.

What's your 'UKIP election flyer' name?

Simply take your real name and spell it wrong.

: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS WEEK


 * GUARDIAN HIVEMIND - bigdragon writes, "Have you

 ever thought The Guardian website was too easy

 to read? Do you prefer your headlines all

 jumbled together and psychedelic?" Yes!

 Absolutely! Actually it's pretty interesting to

 stick words in and find out what the Guardian

 makes of them. A liberal splodge of STUFF.

http://www.theguardianhivemind.com/



 * TOILET CASH TIMER - Jibbed writes, "Like all

 my best ideas, I devised this while sat on the

 bog in work for 40 minutes. It's a real

 motivator." We've seen stuff like this before,

 but hey, it's nice to be reminded that you can

 earn money just sitting on the loo.

http://www.dumpdollars.com



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


FOLLOW B3TA ON FACEBOOK


There's stuff we don't put on the site like...


* WATCH PADDY ASHDOWN SAY BASTARD 7 TIMES - we

made a edit so you can hear this in less than 14

seconds - unlike the boring BBC 4-minute-long

version.

https://www.facebook.com/b3tan/videos/1012483068764308/



* THE DREADFUL UKIP RING-TONE SO AWFUL YOU NEED TO

HEAR IT RIGHT NOW -  out of tune, bad harmonies,

the lot. And the worst bit? It'll stay in your head forever.

http://bit.ly/stick-this-on-your-phone-if-you-are-a-wanker



* ANDROID PISSING ON APPLE VIA GOOGLE MAPS -

including our attempt to draw cocks on Number 10

Downing Street.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK /GOLD/

Wank Bank from IHaveRunOutOfCoke


When I was 11, I was into electronics. My best

ever project was to install Maplin type pressure

pads around the house under the carpet, and wire

them all up to little light bulbs, attach all the

bulbs to a wooden board, and label them with their

locations. I did all of this when my parents were

out, and for years, I could tell where people were

in the house - roughly. As I became a teenager,

this actually proved fantastically useful as a

rudimentary wank alert, and allow me enough time

to hide my tadger should anyone head toward my

bedroom door.


I moved out of there 20 years ago, but bought the

house off my parents about 5 years ago.


Funnily enough, the system is still there, and god

bless, it mostly still works. As my old children's

bedroom is now my grown up office, it still

performs the exact job it did all those years ago.

Only it now warns me of my missus' approach. I'm

never going to reveal it to her but I shall pass

it on to my son one day.


Boys never change do they?

: B3TA IMAGE CHALLENGE

 Results from the 'photoshop the UK' challenge


 Last week we messed with the often mundane

 images being captured by geograph.co.uk.

 Your favourites included:


 * Signs: It's like Stephen King's 50 Shades of

 Grey. (VicBrown)

http://b3ta.com/board/11146318


 * Grave: the real reason that gravestones are

 often at funny angles (HappyToast)

http://b3ta.com/board/11146909

 * Lava: Beautiful, glittery light for the

 capital. (Dubble)

http://b3ta.com/board/11146472

 

 All these images, and a load more can be found

 here:

http://b3ta.com/challenge/PhotoshopUK/



  >> New challenge: Celebrity Deaths 2 <<


 We last dabbled in funny famous fatalities back

 in 2007, which means we've had 8 years of new

 z-list celebs to imagine terrible fates for.

 Think up hilarious and possibly ironic endings

 to befall our idols - then bring them to life with

 the power of photoshop.

http://b3ta.com/challenge/celebdeath2/



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


: SITES IN BRIEF

 Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates


 * AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT DEBUNKS MINECRAFT'S LIES

 - someone needs to stop our kids learning this

 bad science.

http://www.ga.gov.au/corporate_data/79560/79560.pdf



 * DAILY  MAIL PRANK -  Hilarious! The DM run a

 story and embed a tweet, and then the twitter account owner

 changes their name to "THE MAIL LIES"

http://blog.dave.org.uk/2015/04/quoted-by-the-daily-mail.html



 * WHAT DID THE FIRST APPLE HOMEPAGE LOOK LIKE -

 shit is the answer.

http://kfury.com/the-first-apple-homepage


 

 * A GUY WHOSE LAST NAME IS NULL IS DRIVING

 DATABASE MANAGERS INSANE - one for the coders

 reading our newsletter.

http://bit.ly/do-not-google-nullos



 * POWERFUL ARTICLE ON KATIE HOPKINS FROM THE

 ALWAYS WONDERFUL THE QUIETUS - let's hope

 they're wrong though and we're not slowly

 slipping into fascism.

http://thequietus.com/articles/17740-katie-hopkins-the-sun



 * PHOTOSHOP LOLS - So this guy asked the

 internet to photoshop the Eiffel Tower under his

 finger. What happened next won't surprise you

 in the least (they wilfully misunderstood his

 instructions). Hopefully it will amuse you though.

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


: VIDEO SCHMIDEO

 Like a cinema but without the ice-cream interval  


 * MELANCHOLY NIGEL FARAGE SONG - TheBigDoge

 writes, "I've found a nice link on youtube. It's

 a music video featuring Nigel Farage. It was

 directed by the brother of one of my mates."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3d8M7U6cBX4



 * ARGH THE DRUGS - You might not be in the mood

 for an acid flashback but this version of Full

 Metal Jacket is giving us vapour trails

http://bit.ly/nam-man-it-was-bad



 * JOCKEY'S TROUSERS FALL DOWN WHILST HORSE

 RACING - as they say it's a cracking finish.

http://www.b3ta.com/links/Crack_ing_finish



 * VOTE FOR FROGLET! At the 1974 general election

 Oliver Postgate, despairing of the political

 classes, made an episode of The Clangers

 introducing '70s toddlers to the delights of

 anarcho-syndicalism. This is a thing that ACTUALLY

 happened, and the BFI site allows you to watch

 it all.

http://player.bfi.org.uk/film/watch-vote-for-froglet-1974/



 * WHAT IF MAN OF STEEL WAS IN COLOR? - Turns out

 the recent Superman film was graded with such a

 muted palette that it barely looks like Superman

 at all.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Du-eYiD9OfM



 * SCHADENFREUDE LOLS AT TIDAL - As the music

 streaming app drops below 700 in the iTunes

 chart, fun is to had at the expense of its poor,

 multi-millionaire pop-star backers.

http://www.b3ta.com/links/Help_end_their_suffering_Now



 * WHAT A TORTILLA SOUNDS LIKE ON A RECORD PLAYER

 -  Who'd have thought it?

http://bit.ly/tum-te-tum-te-tum



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


: B3TA BOOKS BIT

 A special section because er... BOOKS!

 

 * READ ABOUT HOW TO SURVIVE IN PRISON -

 cairns.alan writes, "My friend has updated his

 prison guide, as featured in b3ta #503. The

 guide is still free online as a PDF, but is also

 available to buy on paper. It also includes new

 illustrations by FT/Private Eye cartoonist Banx,

 and comes with a seal of approval from Will

 Self.


 "Unfortunately my friend has lost control

 of prisonism.info, and the content is now on

 prisonism.com. It would be great if you could

 feature this in the newsletter again, all

 profits go back into prisoner support projects.

http://www.prisonism.com/



 * "INVADED BY THE IWATCH" -  This is an actual

 ebook you can buy. It's vaguely satirical -

 science fiction / consumer fetishism stuff. But

 mostly we're linking to it because we like the

 cover and the title.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00V2WXYO4/b3ta-21



 * DEAR MR LE BON - Paul writes, "Two dear chums

 of mine Mr Wilf Turnbull and Mr Derek Philpott

 of Bournemouth, active pensioners with enquiring

 minds, have written a book, detailing their

 communications with pop stars, requesting them

 to come clean about the meaning of their lyrics.

 

 "So far respondents have included Nik Kershaw,,

 Gary Numan, Toyah, Suggs, Howard Jones, The

 Communards, Glenn Gregory of Heaven 17, Mark

 King of Level 42 and Yazz, along with many

 others. Examples of the responses can be found

 at Wilf's site here:"
