The long slow jerk

The office tea room is more often than not the site of some very awkward conversation. You know the type, you're there making your coffee, your boss walks in, you have to make polite small talk. There's the extended pause.

There may be an attempt to change the subject, but more than likely, you'd rather shove a Tonka Truck up your but rather than endure anything further. It's at this point you can employ the "slow jerk". Guaranteed to make anyone uncomfortable enough to want to end a conversation and leave you alone.

Inspiration coming at ya like a wet flannel

I'm sure everyone has days where they find themselves dragging their tired asses into work, even though there is roughly 3.7 trillion other places they'd rather be going.

Sometimes it's just nice to know that you're not the only one to feel that way.

Still in need of some further inspiration?

I actually find the penguin to be one of the most motivational animals in the world. If the dodo had paid more attention to the penguin, then perhaps the dodo would not have gotten itself into so much trouble.

When you sit down to compile a list of the worst jobs in the world, I'm sure that you can come up with a sizeable list.

Go on, grab a pen and paper, sit down, and spend five minutes writing down the worst jobs you can imagine doing...

Now read back your list. Tell me, does elephant proctologist appear on your list?

A tropical Skittles paradise

Woohoo biatches! A new Skittles commercial!

This one focuses on a happy place. A nice little tropical island paradise.

What does this ad prove? Well, if you ever find yourself at the end of a rainbow, poke your head through, and you'll no doubt see a relaxed looking dude, he can talk your ears off about Skittles all day.

Raise your hand if you want some Skittles now.

The Skittles Sheep

It is possible that I have an obsession with the Skittle commercials. I think that you are either the type of person that loves the Skittles ads or the type of person that hates them. Clearly I love them.

I posted the grown man raised by birds not all that long ago, so here's a companion ad, the Skittles Sheep Dudes.

As with all the other Skittles ads, this one is very random.

Sam Kekovich speech prior to the 2008 AFL Grand Final

Here's a funny little speech that was apparently delivered by Sam Kekovich at an event prior to the 2008 AFL Grand Final.

In case you're not familiar with the work of Sam Kekovich, he's a former Australian Rules Football player who has since gone on to make a name for himself in the Australian media, as well as for doing some piss funny ads for lamb.

Apparently he spoke to those that were rich enough to attend the Grand Final event held at "Centre Square", Punt Road, prior to the 2008 AFL Grand Final. According to the original email that accompanied his speech (see below) tickets for the bourgeois event were $1500 a a head.

Cheesy banking joke

Here's one I received in my in box today for the banking geeks. It's cheesy, but worth a chuckle.

Following the problems in the sub-prime lending market in America and the run on Northern Rock in the UK, uncertainty has now hit Japan.

In the last 7 days Origami Bank has folded, Sumo Bank has gone belly up and Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut some of its branches.

Yesterday, it was announced that Karaoke Bank is up for sale and will likely go for a song, while today shares in Kamikaze Bank were suspended after they nose-dived.

While Samurai Bank fell on its sword, Ninja Bank is reported to have taken a hit, but they remain in the black.

Furthermore, 500 staff at Karate Bank got the chop and analysts report that there is something fishy going on at Sushi Bank where it is feared that staff may get a raw deal.
