Don’t really know what to say about this, other than, check out what people have made using Tampons. There’s step by step instructions for each item and even a video of someone playing Ode To Joy on a pan pipe made of Tampons!!!? Nothing is off-limit when it comes to the interwebs. All a bit random but something I feel compelled to share. Sorry about that. This is definitely the oddest post yet. Wonder what Tampax make of it? Is this site helping to break down those taboos?
Here’s a selection of some of the things featured on Tampon Crafts and a snippet of some of the copy from the site:
The Menstrual Militia is now recruiting! Arm yourself with a Tampon Shooter and report for target practice and tactical tampon maneuvers. Safe for indoor or outdoor use, this air-powered gun fires tampons “bullets” up to 20 feet. Our Tampon Bandolier insures that you’ve always got a supply of ammo at the ready, plus you’ll never have to hunt around for a spare tampon in case you really need one.
I’m offline for a few hours and look what I miss - what must surely be the first ever marriage proposal done via Twitter. Congratulations Emily and Max! Quite literally everything is happening on Twitter these days.
Which reminds me, have you seen this blog - Stuff White People Like. Japan is in there, which I pointed out to Ged over at RC! But then I’m just as “guilty” of loving Japanese stuff so there we go. Anyway, enjoy. There’s so much more to come from Twitter. We’re only just at the beginning when it’s all a bit noisy and people are starting to itch for the next level.
Right, it’s Friday and this is funny. Really funny I thought. It had me LOL, genuinely LOL - GLOL to be precise. Not quite ROTFL or even LMAOROTFL but GLOL none the less. See what you think. In a nutshell, man writes about a particularly crazy woman that bought his fridge. Funny entry gets picked up by the interwebs and ends up on the front page of Popurls. I read, agree and then perpetuate the cycle. Have a good weekend everyone. I think I need it and so do you.
Here’s a snippet:
3. Please call me only once with ALL your questions. I left for the day, and had 5 messages on my answering machine, the last one was at 11:30 pm. Frankly lady, you were sounding a bit too crazy by the end of the day. It’s a fridge. A small metal box that keeps shit cold. I don’t have the fridge’s family tree. For all I know the fridge’s was conceived by a slutty young Maytag that graced some hillbilly’s side porch. I don’t know the exact age of the fridge. I bought it a few years ago, I used it for a couple of months, ok, I lied, I used it a whole year. The fact is, you’re not buying a race horse, you’re buying a used fridge.
I’ve said it before and I know I’ll definitely say it again, but I really do love the Internet and everything (nearly) that it enables.
My dad (self-confessed technophobe) has just set up his brand spanking new internet radio (Roberts WM201) - using the easy to use Netgear browser interface and adding the radio manually by MAC address to the trusted access list. I was able to go to the Roberts website, download the manual and run through the whole set-up procedure with him.
He’s now happily surfing over 6,000 internet radio stations and checking out on demand content from BBC Radio 4 from his study in the Northumbrian hills (where he can’t get FM because of said hills and only just gets broadband because of the distance to the nearest exchange).
And for I think perhaps the first time ever, dad’s got a piece of kit I haven’t got! Bit jealous really . . .
Chuffed today. Using the modem script here and some instructions here, I really easily set up my MacBook to use my T Mobile MDA Vario II via bluetooth to surf the web over 3G. It’s actually quite fast and a whole lot better than last time I did it using GPRS. Bring it on.
This is very odd indeed. Got via Guy Kawasaki, that he got via Truemors. No option to embed the original which is a bit annoying, so I took matters into my own hands (video below and here)
