And then there were three.. - Art
30 Nov 2006 @ 10:07 pm - I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed, (or looked even), but my photography has started to move away from things that look 'cute' and 'nice' towards more of an abstract comment on the disgustingness of the human race. I'm not sure how/why/when this...

Ebay jokes - MP4 player shopping - Internet
10 Nov 2006 @ 05:17 pm - I'm pretty sure that this isn't really meant to be a joke but it's hillarious. It's badly translated English that looks like it's been beaten to death by a thesaurus. I shudder to think what the mp4 player is like... I have no idea. [code]65,000 ...
