They Think It's All Sober...

I've posted before about how much I love pun-y Sun headlines - today there was an article about the beer in the Stade de France with this headline: They Think It's All Sober. Apparently the stadium is an alcohol-free zone, so while there are plenty of bars inside the stadium all of them serve zero% beer.  The idea that for all intents and purposes the beer brands looked like proper alcoholic beer brands just made me laugh.

As did these quotes:

Neil Jones, 35, from Portsmouth, Hants, said: “I’ve averaged four pints a game and my friends have knocked back double that. I was so excited by the action on the pitch I assumed I must be burning up the alcohol.

“I kept drinking and wondered why nothing was happening. Now I feel completely conned.”

Jim O’Shea, 45, from Coventry, said: “I’ve been drinking like a fish and I thought it was strange.

“I suspected the beer was watered down but had no idea it didn’t contain a hint of alcohol. It’s outrageous. I could have saved a fortune by drinking water.  The fact that it’s alcohol-free should be advertised. It’s typical of the French to try and cheat us.

Something for the weekend

Lost in Translation

Beyonce is upset that her album B'Day is also the name of a certain bathroom appliance that men use in mainland Europe.

"I paid hundreds of people. Not one of them seemed to know this."

Brilliant!

Twitter with Darth

Thanks to Ian M, i have a new Twitter buddy. Who knew that the Dark Lord of the Sith himself was on Twitter, fantastic!

This week I pimped out my new Imperial TIE Fighter with angled wings, chrome laser cannons, and a wicked powerful hyper-drive. Rockin'!< 10:39 AM March 07, 2007 from web

Wondering if that dork son of mine will ever figure out that there is more to life than bullseyeing womp rats in his T-16 back home. 11:13 PM February 08, 2007 from web

I love Twittering with friends, I am "NylonMeals" if you ever want to Twitter together.

Darth Vader's Twitter is certainly the funniest one I have come across.

Are there any Twitterings (not sure what the word is) that would make us all smile?

"I'm a Mac" Vs "I'm a twat"

From Amber Mac's blog. Made me laugh.

The real US ads are here.

The new Mitchell and Webb Apple ads that broke yesterday are the UK version. It might be that I watch too much Peep Show but I find it really hard to disassociate Robert Webb the actor from Jez the character he plays in the show. When I see the Apple ads and Webb is playing the part of "Mac", I just think of pretentious, arrogant, wanky Jez. Hmmm, not sure that is quite the brand associations that Apple were aiming at.

Seems like little-known comedians are the order of the day, with Microsoft signing up Demetri Martin in the States.

Ironically for the first time ever my Mac died on me last night - a dire slate grey screen, then a crash, then when I re-booted pages of code telling me "not to freak out." Maybe 3 years is just the life cycle of an iBook, but I hope not!

Amazon and Jordan (the site and the glamour model!)

I have not laughed as hard for a very, very long time.

Take a look at the Amazon reviews for "A Whole New World"

Just brilliant!
