Vending machines have come a long way since they were first invented. Now vending machines vend anything from rice to sneakers to coffee beans. I would have loved to be in that era when you can buy your own meals, like in the video. Nonetheless, I am in my era and I have some great [...]
Yeah but if they all look like Cheryl Tweedy, they can be as loud as they want.
Last month, Roy Scheider, the guy from Jaws and Seaquest, passed away.
This following Heath Ledger’s death. This I find really strange, because famous people from the same groups usually die at roughly the same time - usually in pairs. Remember when Princess Diana died? That was roughly the same time as Mother Teresa’s death.
This guy sure took the risk of finding out. By running his iPhone stopwatch for 999+ hours, he’s now going to show us what’ll happen after 1000 hrs of not turning the thing down.
It could explode, it could fade out in a fizzle, Steve Jobs could call and congratulate you!
To find out how ingenius Mac-gineers [...]
For those of you who went to watch Ratatouille, methinks you would agree that it was one of the best Disney/Pixar film of late. You might, or might not remember one of their famed shorts, which made you laugh your head off - Lifted. If you remember, you can watch it here again, and if [...]
Go watch this video first (link opens new window).
Then come back and see how I count money here.

Don’t you hate hypocrisy? I do. What’s more is large companies’ hypocrisy. When they have buttloads of money because they keep raising prices just because they know you have to pay. Companies like power companies and rail companies.
For those who live in the UK will know this, especially those who live in London and the [...]
Has anyone seen the British comedy Run, Fat Boy, Run? It’s weird how British films are always advertised loudly, get in the cinema, and fizzles out quickly. Are they really that bad? I remember a whole string of comedies from Cloud Nation - one of the many affectionate names I have for this country) - [...]
Have we all seen 300? Did we all enjoy it? Well, here’s another film that you can watch to waste 90 minutes of your life: Meet the Spartans.
The funniest scene in that film was definitely Britney Spears, which they obviously spoiled by putting it in the trailer - as you do - and Lindsay Lohan [...]
One of the things I enjoy most for a quite evening out is going to the cinema. Paradoxically, it ain’t that quiet in there, but you know what I mean. When you have a couple of hours to spare and you don’t feel like doing anything else. Just get online, book your tickets, get there, [...]
I bet you know I enjoy spoofs, don’t you? Here’s one that I recalled seeing. Can you guess which ad it’s spoofing?
Clue: I’ve recently shown you. (shh…)
Previously I posted a spoof of the MacBook Air ad.
Now I’m going to share with you another spoof of the ad.
It’s silly little things like that that brighten up my day.
A follow-up to Lunar BBDO’s post.
Remember super ads like Sony’s “Balls” and Honda’s “Cog“? The follow up to Balls was tepid at best - which was disappointing - but Honda Civic’s, with an orchestra emulating the roars and squeaks and booms made by the Civic was, I thought, brilliant!
Then came that ad by Orange, of [...]
For those of you who were having troubles watching the Ann Summers ad, it’s now been rectified and back on again. If it stops working again, just go to your favourite online videoclip website and type “Ann Summers Wood”.
They undermine men by saying that all we’re ever interested in is sex, and particularly during Valentines’ Day. Apparently, we only want our partners to wear skimpy, uncomfortable lingerie that exposes most parts and leave nothing to the imagination. As if sex games and dirty thoughts are what dominate our minds.
What happened to the romance [...]
