 Drawings of Vaginas by Teenage Boys

 

 Best title of a book on Amazon yet? Reviews

 include, "Bit disappointing really. Yes, the

 book has pictures of Vagina's drawn by teenage

 boys but there isn't many (Roughly, about 15)

 and there isn't any notes, annotations,

 introductions or any other interesting passages

 of writing. OK, you get what it says on the tin

 but still, very small book with a few drawings

 in. Bought this for my Brother by the way and he

 has yet to comment as it isn't Xmas yet. Will

 update."

 Pesky Young Scamp writes, "It's the 4th barrier

 from the right at the west entrance, not the

 2nd, though I noticed that the exit barriers

 from the Jubilee line at Waterloo are copying

 it. Talented thing."

Strange Regional Idiosyncrasies:

The attractive wrought iron on the windows and doors in Detroit is NOT ornamental. "DO NOT get out of your car"

----------

What's the Difference Between California in 1850, AND Today?

California became a state. The State had no electricity. The State had no money. Almost everyone spoke Spanish. There were gun fights in the streets.

So basically, it was just like California is today except the women had real breasts and men didn't hold hands.

-----------

The North has coffee houses, The South has Waffle Houses
The North has dating services, The South has family reunions.
The North has double last names, The South has double first names.
The North has Cream of Wheat, The South has grits.
-----------------

If you do settle in the South and bear children, don't think we will accept them as Southerners. After all, if the cat had kittens in the oven, we wouldn't call 'em biscuits.

No, there's no "Vegetarian Special" on the menu. Order steak. Order it rare. Or, you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the two pounds of ham and turkey.

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

Today's Featured Humor : -) - Strange Foreign Mistranslations into English

Here are some interesting mistranslations:

In a Belgrade elevator:
To move the cabin, push button for wishing floor. If the cabin should enter more persons, each one should press a number of wishing floor. Driving is then going alphabetically by national order.

A doctor's office in Rome:
Specialist in women and other diseases.

In a Rome laundry:
Ladies, leave your clothes here & spend the afternoon having a good time.

On a menu of a Polish hotel:
Salad a firm's own make; limpid red beer soup with cheesy dumplings in the form of a finger; roasted duck let loose; beef rashers beaten up in the country people's fashion.

A Finnish hotel's instructions in case of fire:
If you are unable to leave your room, expose yourself in the window.

Ad for donkey rides in Thailand:
Would you like to ride your own ass?

In a Czech tourist agency:
Take one of our horse driven tours---we guarantee no miscarriages.

Car rental brochure in Tokyo:
When passenger of foot heave in sight, tootle the horn. Trumpet him melodiously at first, but if he still obstacles your passage then tootle him with vigor.

A temple in Bangkok:
It is forbidden to enter a woman even a foreigner if dressed like a man.

In a Bangkok cleaners:
Drop your trousers here for best results.

In a hotel in Yugoslavia:
The flattening of underwear with pleasure is the job of the chambermaid.

In a Paris hotel elevator:
Please leave your values at the front desk.

: QUESTION OF THE WEEK

 Bad Smells

 

 Last week we asked for your smelliest stories.

 These ones reeked:

http://b3ta.com/questions/smells/

 * GUFF LOVE - "You know that thing where you can

  stand the smell of your own guffs, but not

  other people's? So you can drop the most

  rancid Guinness fart in the world and sit

  there quite happily while everyone else is

  retching?

  "Once at work, I popped into the loo to strain

  my greens and was greeted by the smell of a

  previous occupant's sit down visit. What

  utterly freaked me out was that although the

  farty smell was clearly not my own, I could

  quite happily stand to smell it. It smelled

  like I'd done it. I'd unwittingly stumbled on

  my very own guffleganger. I am to this day a

  little disturbed by the incident."

(mictoboy)

 

 * FROG HOLOCAUST -"If the school caretaker forgets

  about the bowl of tadpoles you put on the

  nature table when he closes the school for

  Easter break, they tend to die. After 2 weeks,

  this creates a smell so odious and vile that

  the first girl into the classroom at the start

  of the new term will almost immediately vomit

  all over the floor.

  "The next girl in can now smell dead tadpoles

  and vomit, and so a chain reaction of puking

  begins. 6 girls sent home, 4 classrooms closed

  for 2 days until the smell went away and one

  caretaker reprimanded for allowing the

  tadpoles to stay there and stink up the place."

(Smash Monkey)

 

 * DUTCH OVEN - "A friend of mine, L, has been

  seeing her other half, R, since long before I

  knew her. On one occasion, she was telling a

  group of us a story about the first time she

  and he went camping. R is lactose intolerant;

  the merest exposure to lactose means that he's

  generating foul stenches from his behind for

  hours.

  "Unbeknownst to either of them, R had eaten

  something with milk in it at some point in the

  evening. His insides were beginning to bubble

  just as he and L turned in for the night. 'I

  don't believe in any of that race-memory or

  collective unconscious stuff,' L said, 'but I

  am Jewish; and there I was, in a dark,

  confined space, slowly being gassed...'"

 What's made you smile recently? We could do

: SITES IN BRIEF

 Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates

 >> UKIP Shipping Forecast <<

 Beautiful work, as the chap's delivery is so

 spot on.

 >> Traveling in a Boeing 747 in the 70s <<

 The 70s was very much the golden age of air

 travel, according to these amazing pictures.

 Even the economy seats seem to have had an

 extra 3m or so of headroom. Extraordinary.

 >> Fake signs in London underground <<

 Old-school, but good. Guerrilla art project

 puts up legitimate-looking but sarcastic

 stickers over the top of existing London

 Underground information signs.

http://fotozup.com/fake-signs-in-london-underground/

 >> Craigslist mirrors <<

 Bloke scours the auction sites for pictures of

 mirrors. In case it's not obvious, the real

 interest is in what the keen vendor has

 accidentally allowed to be reflected in the

 product pictures.

http://craigslistmirrors.com/

 >> Man chest-Spanx <<

 T-shirts that claim to squeeze your unslightly

 man-belly into muscular shapes pleasing to the

 eye. Hmm. Seems legit.

 >> Who is Henry Kelly? <<

 Affable daytime TV personality Henry Kelly

 tells us about himself via the medium of "Going

 for Gold" clues.

 >> Me and my Spectrum <<

 Sweet, nostalgic site - children of the 80s

 pictured with their ZX Spectrums. Warning: May

 contain excessive 1980s haircuts

: VIDEO SCHMIDEO

 >> Noel Gallagher rips the piss out of old Oasis vids  <<

 Always good value, the older Gallagher brother,

 here in DVD commentary form.

http://www.b3ta.com/links/1126578

 >> Weird cat <<

 Skip to 0:17 for the lolz. Odd trope - so many

 cat videos are in portrait format. Don't know

 why that might be, just an observation.

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

>> Stop-motion dystopian sci-fi <<

Amazing bit of work, apparently made by one

person over the course of four years. NSFW due to

monster dong.

http://www.b3ta.com/links/1125650

 >> YouTube Comment Reconstruction #6 <<

 We really love these - two Shakespearian actors

 re-enact a comment storm on the YouTube vid

 "Soccer Player Accidentally Slaps A Referee's

 Boobs" - and there's more than a hint of

 Shakespeare about the language, somehow.

 The Winter Olympics are almost here, and if
