Crapcha is fake Captcha.
Very funny (even though it’s not always easy to tell them apart). Now where’s the lemon symbol on my keyboard…?

I’ve always wanted a vehicle with a ‘thoracic cockpit’ but I’ll never find a space big enough in the Sainsbury’s car park.

Clearly, what’s needed is some kind of heat ray attachment to melt inferior vehicles.
Failing that, try Waitrose.
“Accomplish wonders.”
That actually looks pretty good.
Crapcha is fake Captcha.
My keyboard doesn’t have a toaster key. Should I upgrade?

That paper-creasing art … maybe he just stamped a piece of paper.
A number of those fishtanks make me a little sad, since they’re clearly not designed with the fish’s comfort in mind. They ARE quite pretty, though.

Aquariums of note. I do like #22.

That “Take Five” version isn’t that innovative, I still recognise the tune.
BTW the “Crapcha” one made me laugh out loud, not bad for 8am.
Am I evil for laughing at the following story:

In other robotic vehicular hexapod news, some enterprising folks are working on one here in Boston. His name is Stompy.
