Double Llama glory for a Thursday morning

I saw this excellent graphic by gotbob and thought it was awesome (president Obama Llama rocks my sox). Naturally afterwards I was immediately  transported back to 2004 and started singing the Llama song (a truly infectious viral that’s alive and kicking over 6 years later) so I thought I’d share the joy that is. Warning [...]

Balloon fun with the new Dyson fan

Ok so I’m a little late to this one but how much does this make you want to rush out and buy 100 new Dyson fans? (We are going with “quite a lot actually”.)

If the T-1000 was a pig… this would be him.  He’s unstoppable (and awesome)!! If anyone knows where to buy one of these things let us know in the comments! There’s still time to ship from Japan before Christmas!

Comparing the Meerkat is racist, according to the Guardian

We aren’t really sure how to react to this article in the Guardian from Saturday. Give it a read yourself and tell us what you make of it because the Meerkat series of adverts from comparethemarket.com has to be one of our favourite advertising campaigns of all time.
