Internet. Verse 12

Hello and welcome to another week of stuff. 

How come nobody has ever told me that for weeks and weeks and weeks babies sound like they're trying to force their guts through their bellybuttons? The noise this baby produces is terrifying. I've never heard anyone or anything strain so much. I keep thinking something's going to pop. 

Anyway. Here's a space GIF because space is amazing.

If that didn't blow your tiny little mind, maybe old people playing GTA will. At least I hope it entertains you for 10 minutes.

Do you have a lot of money and like VW vans and stuff? Then this stretch Volkswagen bus from 1965 is for you. 

Now you too can have an invisible boyfriend, complete with a story of how you met, and social proof (because if it ain't social, it ain't real). This would have come in handy when I was trying to explain the lack of boyfriend for all those years...

Oh, look, more space. 

Sort of on the same theme (space...God...you know), here's fuckity-fucker, I mean, Richard Dawkins, reading some of the lovely letters he received. 

April 11th, 2014 - In a candid moment, filmmaker Eric Preston, founder and producer at Fusion Films, rolls his camera as Dr. Richard Dawkins - Author, Professor and Evolutionary Biologist - again reads "fan mail" he has received from some of his not-so-great admirers. (Parental Discretion is Advised!)

Find the Golden Hour anywhere you are. What's the Golden Hour? "The Golden Hour (sometimes referred to as the Magic Hour) is often defined as the first and last hour of sunlight in the day when the special quality of light yields particularly beautiful photographs."

That's it! Go have fun.

Superb ad for the Royal Dutch Guide Dog Foundation. 

Genomineerd voor de Gouden Loeki! Stem hier: http://stergoudenloeki.nl ** "We not only help people who cannot see, but also those who have seen too much" This Guide Dogs TV commercial from Royal Dutch Guide Dog Foundation (KNGF Geleidehonden) shows the assistance a veteran dog can offer in helping a military veteran who is coping with severe war related trauma.

Sniff. 

Chapter 11 of the WWW

Well these weeks just fly by, don't they. Another week, another week of what is mostly meaningless crap, which will all be forgotten by Monday - if not already. But that's life. That reminds me, I came across a thread on reddit asking what phrases we used to use (by 'we' it mean people my age-ish, e.g. 30+), that are, or will be soon, meaningless. I'm going to go through it and make a best of, because there were some golden ones in there. Anyway, here's some already meaningless crap. Enjoy!

It's really a very clever campaign for the Toronto Humane Society, tackling pet abandonment. Over 180,000 animals enter Canadian shelters each year, and 40% will never leave. Ouch. 

You might have heard of Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson's record making free-climb of the sheer face of El Capitan. It's an absolutely astounding feat, and if you don't believe me, look at this wonderful interactive site from the NY Times. You can see more photos here. They're really worth a look. 

Like zombies? Like parkour? Then you'll like this. Go full screen, it's worth it. 

Inspired by the highly-anticipated action survival game, Dying Light, this Real-Life Parkour video puts you in the POV of a runner and takes you on a frantic escape from zombies through the rooftops of Cambridge, UK. We had a lot of fun making this and cant wait to play the game when it comes out at the end of the month!

I was going to write about the genius idea of sending glitter to people you hate, but it seems it because so successful, so quickly, the guy who started it has already made a huge amount of money and has put the site up for sale. The modern world never ceases to amaze me. 

Here's another form of sending things, albeit a slightly more digital version. You can send file, anywhere (e.g. from PC to iPhone). It's simple and smart and one of those things you'll forget about in a moment. 

Here are some bonkers photos of NYC at night. Are they real? Yes. 

Life is like a box of chocolates. Or a donut. 

If you're not sure how big your country is compared to another country, then check this out. Just add the two countries you want to compare, and boom, there you have it. 

That's it, folks. See you next week.
