Safety Briefing Card
Have you ever noticed how much aeroplanes look like giant sky wrenches?
Or that seatbelts look like a Lego version of Michelangelo’s The Creation of Adam?
(This is what happens when you spend too long staring at things)
Served in a plastic cup?
Is it also worth pointing out that “…the way nature intended it to be” is a registered trade mark?
Water Failure
This is from a few years ago, but it still makes me shake my head. (Article from the Tasmanian Mercury.)

What makes this particularly chuckle-worthy is that the bottom photo was from an article in the paper just days earlier, wherein the pictured property owner was complaining that the heritage listing on his house was preventing him from renovating. They later passed this off as ‘an accident’.
Crashing House Prices
New Car Smell
Mercedes Benz has released its own fragrance line…

For those who just love that New Car Smell ™.
For the budget conscious, I hear Hyundai are also releasing their own perfume.
I wonder if Citroen will bring out a citrus variation…
Or if more states will legalise the VW Kombi range…
Too Dear
Found these clocks…
It said they were 12 bucks
But they were just two deer.
Priorities
“I will have have my revenge! If it’s the last thing I do!”
“Which it probably will be, seeing as this isn’t really high on my list of priorities.”
“So if I manage to get those other things done first, then revenge. Otherwise, meh.”
“In fact I’ll probably find better stuff to do before I even finish this list off, which will just add to the original delay before I have my revenge. So, I probably wouldn’t worry about it.”
“Unless this year is going to be excruciatingly boring, which given the current political climate seems unlikely, but if it is, then boom, you’d better watch your back. Revenge!”
“But most likely I will just go and watch a film or something until I’m over it.”
“Something light hearted, maybe with that guy from that movie about the monkey in it. You know the guy. Makes you laugh but then in the next moment makes you think. That guy is great in those things.”
“What I’m trying to say is that you probably shouldn’t have murdered my family, but I didn’t really like them anyway.”
“So… Don’t suppose you want to catch a movie?”
