A novel idea

I'm really losing faith in humanity today. First, a Cheeseburger in a can, and then... well... you decide.

I has can cheezburger?

Digg this
Oh dear. The quotes, they fly into my head as if without any effort!

"mmm, this IS a tasty burger! Mind if I have some of your tasty beverage to wash this down?"

Canned cheeseburger.

Jules: I do love the taste of a good burger. Mm-mm-mm. You know what they call a canned burger in Germany?
Brett: No.
Jules: Tell 'em Vincent.
Vincent: Cheeseburger in der Dose.
Jules: Un Cheeseburger in der Dose!
Vincent: Ich habe ein Pausebrot gegessen.
Jules: Ich habe ein Boner gesprungen.
Brett: Haha.
Vincent: Ja ja.
Jules: Ja.

Cyriak's animation mix

Digg this
On the other hand, there's also the "how much acid was the cretor on" scale, which in this case had to be quite some serious figure.



Takes the digg award for 'craziest YouTube video ever'. Well, at least, for the moment anyway.

Kitten versus Front Row

Also appearing on the Cute Meter/radar this morning is a kitten who's clearly not quite sure what the hell is going on.

Complaints of Taxi drivers

Just received this from a workmate which I found worth a laugh.

A dispatch guy who answers the phone for a taxi company blogs about the doofs he meets. The following "irate customer meets 'talk like a pirate day'" section is in honour of Scott.

ME: Blank Top, your phone number please?
GUY: Yeah, I have a complaint about one of your drivers, and your fucking manager isn't answering his phone!
ME: Yeah, I don't think he's in right now, if you leave a message on there he'll . . .
GUY: NO, I want to talk to a person! This guy almost made me wreck and I want him fired!
ME: The best I can do is bitch him out over the radio, what's his cab number?
GUY: I don't know what his fucking cab number was!
ME: Well, I mean, if you didn't get his cab number, then how do we know which guy to yell at?
GUY: Just figure it out from your GPS locater, it was like five minutes ago on 66 near Lee Highway.
ME: Uh, we don't have anything like that, we're pretty stick and rudder over here. I have no way of figuring out what driver you had a problem with.
GUY: Well I want to file a complaint anyway!
ME: . . . How? You don't know what driver it was.
GUY: Just a general complaint!
ME: Okay . . . let me transfer you to our general complaints manager.
Ordinarily I'd just hang up on this jackass, but in honor of the holiday, I put him on hold for a minute to pump myself up and get into character. Since I already know everything he is going to say I've got him dead to rights.
ME: Yarrrrr, this be the Cap'n, what de ye be needin' matey?
GUY: . . . . Uh, hello?
ME: Ahoy matey, the bosun tells me ye be havin' a problem with one o' me lads.
GUY: . . . Uh, yeah . . . I had a problem with one of your drivers?
ME: What did he be doin', says I?
GUY: He . . . uh . . . He almost ran me off the road . . .
ME: ARRRRR!!! That scurvy bilge rat! Give te me his numbarrr, and I'll be havin' him walk the plank 'afore the first bell o' the evenin' watch!
GUY: Uh . . . why are you talking like a pirate?
ME: Arrrr . . . I had a stroke.
GUY: Oh.
ME: So what be the number o' the tar that almost made ye founder?
GUY: Uh . . . I didn't GET the cab number, actually . . .
ME: Aye, but if ye don't know the number of the blaggart that dropped ye in his wake , how do we be findin' him says I?
GUY: Uhm, I just wanted to . . . you know . . . generally complain about your drivers.
ME: Shiver me timbers! There may be a scurvy swab 'er two in me crew, but we can't keel haul 'em all just on account that ye didn't like the cut o' one of 'ems jib!
GUY: Yeah, well, this guy was very dangerous and you should find out who he is and pull him off the road.
ME: Arrr, well next time one 'o me brigs bow rakes ye, mind ye read his flags!
GUY: Sure, whatever. (hangs up)[source]
