The Huge Entity: Pain, Cheese Shake and False Mis-information

Pain, Cheese Shake and False Mis-information

Pain

I found this handy tool in a children's book on the human body. I quote:

"Pain: Lift the elastic up, place your finger underneath, then let go. This feeling is called pain. Pain warns your brain that something is wrong."

...well, I'm glad we got that sorted.

Cheese Shake

I always said someone should make a Cheese based drink, and it looks like the Japanese stole my idea. Funnily enough after taking this picture, I didn't feel like purchasing the said Cheese Shake...

The manufacturer's name, KOIWAI is far too close to the Japanese word KOWAI for comfort. (KOWAI = "Scary/I'm scared")

Nuff said...

False Mis-information

...and finally, I found the wonderful site Uncyclopedia today. Where as Wikipedia is a highly useful and informative online Encyclopedia, Uncyclopedia is equal in stature by being entirely full of nonsense, and yet very humourous at the same time.

Here's an extract I wripped from an article on The Spanish Inquisition:

"The Spanish Inquisition was a jovial TV quiz show between 1950-1955. One of the first successful television shows, contestants had to answer a series of questions in order to win $12.34 in cash. Oftentimes a man dressed in a bear costume would run out and tickle contestants randomly. It was cancelled in October 1955 when an audience member opened fire, coincidentally assassinating JFK."
