Hello there

Had a good Christmas? I did!

What better way to come back after a break with some drunk people shouting at a bus, eh?

Merry Christmas

As you may have noticed, today is the 25th of December. This happens to be the day that Jesus was born. So in celebration, a fat man in a red suit comes down our chimneys and places expensive goods under prosthetic trees in our front rooms. Festive.

On a serious note, I'd like to thank everybody who has read my blog, watched my videos and left comments over the past year.

I hope Santa brought you all something nice.

Merry Christmas to all fellow head-doctors.

Wiik Competition

I haven't been paying attention to other blogs recently, so I was really shocked to see that the Chinese have ripped off the Wii.



There it is, in all it's horror, compared to the fantastic Wii.

As far as I know, it includes twelve rip-off games such as "Happy Tennis" and "Free Craps".

I personally don't think it is a dent on the Wii, a great console with online capabilities and a range of great games.

That's about it. Have this Vii ad.

And have a look on the electronics in the Vii's casing.



PS. I forgot to mention it's made by Chintendo.

Buswatching is the new trainspotting

I take the bus into Newcastle almost every weekend, taking the bus from my tiny village of Red Row, all the way to Haymarket Bus Station. DaveSpencer32, who is 55, has spent a considerate amount of time visiting major cities around the world filming buses.

Including Newcastle, here.

Microwaves + Flammable Items = YouTube Material

I like microwaves. They heat things, like Rustlers burgers, and soup. They're good. They're also good when fireworks, wool and other things are placed in them, proven in these videos.

iPhone :: Second Opinion

Today I went to Newcastle, visiting every Carphone Warehouse and O2 store, setting my face as the wallpaper on every iPhone on display. During this bit of tom-foolery, I had a little play with the devices, and have to correct my previous post.

So, here we go.

HEAD-DOCTOR'S FULLY FLEDGED REAL OPINION ON THE APPLE IPHONE

I'll split this into separate sections, one for every part of the iPhone*. Let's start off with

SAFARI

Apple state they have put a full internet browser on the iPhone. And they're correct. I checked my blog on the iPhone, and I could not believe that Apple put my crappy little blog onto the iPhone. The text looked sleek and I loved how you could just zoom into paragraphs by tapping. I seriously would want the iPhone for Safari alone.

MAIL

The iPhones on display didn't have the Mail function, but a nice O2 worker had one in his pocket and gave me a little demo on how his iPhone works well with Gmail. His sister was in Spain on holiday and took a photo of her daughter with a BlackBerry and emailed it over to him. The simplicity was remarkable.

IPOD

"The iPhone is the best iPod ever", Apple claims. I'm not too sure about that. It's a little bit fiddly at the beginning, and it's still fiddly at the end. Yes, it works, but I had about ten people asking me how I got Green Day on it. Even when I showed them how to do it, nobody could grasp it that well. Instead of dials and arrows, Apple could have at least labeled them "Volume" and "Back".

SMS

I have seen a countless number of blogs slamming the iPhone's keyboard, and how they can't touch the correct keys, and how the spell check doesn't help. Well, they're wrong. I might be saying this because I have really thin fingers, but I typed with ease. And when I (deliberately) mis-spelled a word, the spell check gave me the correct word straight away. The same goes for NOTES and a part of SAFARI.

YOUTUBE

And finally, I love the YouTube app. To test it, I thought no better video than Star Wars Kid (I feel some people may be upset with this decision). I loved the full screen option and the quality was excellent (in YouTube terms)

SO... THE CONCLUSION IS...

I am now Stephen Fry.

On Turkish petrol stations and beauty

Following up on the last post, a beautiful ad for Petrol Ofisi. (in Turkish)



(in green because it's not that beautiful)

Petrol Oflutti

Out of the very small bit of Turkey I visited earlier this year, I came across about thirty petrol stations on the way to the hotel from the airport. Twenty or so of them were Petrol Ofisi sites (three of them were within 500 yds of each other on a motorway).

Although, in a country filled with oil and money, I never encountered something as beautiful as this.



(it's lovely, so it's in blue)

New YouTube embed colours

Ooooh, YouTube has a nice shiny embed design. Again. This time, they've introduced new colour schemes, which seems to be a good idea. I'm going to adopt this for the blog.

For example:
Really sick and NSFW videos, like this one of a boy eating dog poo, has a red display.


And this one, of a quality moment in TV history, is in a nice calm green.

Remember this?

I do.

I've been testing out some blue screen stuff in Movie Maker as a sort of "here's what's on later on the show" bit.

It's a little bit messy at the beginning and at the end (and generally throughout the video), but that's Movie Maker for you.

How to Make Garfield Funny

I've came across this little forum who have photoshopped Garfield comic strips to a point where they become completely random. So random, it's rendered the comic funny.

Sex etc.

A little Facebook app here that is gauranteed to grow bigger.

Get Free Condoms on Facebook

The main gist is to sign up to offers (DVD rental trials, poker websites) and get "Bangin' Bucks" to spend in the condom store.

I'm gonna give it a try, and post the results up here.

edit - fixed the link. every click gets me some jams. yay!

Sunday, November 11, 2007

Oh yes!



What are you doing on Thursday night?

I'll tell you what!

iPhone this, something else that

So the iPhone was released in the UK on Friday. On upon seeing it for the first time revolving in a small cylindrical glass case in San Francisco eleven months ago, I knew that it would be a huge thing. I also knew that I wanted it. And that it would be at an extortionate price.

I'm not going to a Stephen
Fry delve deep into why I adore the device so much and why I want to make love to it (imagine that, through the headphone socket? That's awful), but I will do a Stewie Griffin, and give it a compliment sandwich instead.

THE MULTI-TOUCH SCREEN IS A GREAT ORIGINAL IDEA

Who'd have thought it? A huge touch screen instead of fiddly plastic buttons that are too small and too closely placed together is a good idea. Not the best of ideas, as I'll say later on, but better than a crappy cheap plastic thing.

THE MULTI-TOUCH SCREEN IS SOMETIMES CRAP

Before you start saying, hey, you've contradicted yourself, you stupid self-contradicting fool, I said above that it is a good original idea. But it does have flaws. Sometimes it becomes very easy to make mistakes if you're in a hurry, and sometimes the predictive text won't work as well either. But that's just like a normal mobile, you'll make a mistake and the predictive text can screw a sentence up. But some people may get irate after a while and do a John Dvorak.

THE ENTIRE INTERNET IN YOUR POCKET

How handy is that? The whole internet, in a beautiful web browser, all in your hand. I could really do with something like that for when I'm on the bus or Metro doing my "special pointless errands". And because I have high speed Wi-Fi in my house, I'd use it more than my laptop.

THE EDGE NETWORK ONLY COVERS 20% OF THE UK

Yes, it covers part of the area I live in, like some of the bus route and a little bit of the Metro route too. But if I was to go down the country or go up past the Scottish border, the EDGE network probably won't cover that area. And if it does, it'll be painfully slow. A guy called Joey from Indianapolis talked about his BlackBerry that uses the same AT&T EDGE network as the US iPhones, and he did not like it.

YOUTUBE WIDGET

This is genius. All the content of YouTube full screen on the beautiful multi-touch display. The ability to log in with your YouTube account and add videos to your favourites is great. In this Apple video, we see footage of a bunch of men attempting to jump a river on mountain bikes just shows you how endless YouTube is.

NO FLASH PLUG-IN

This is where the iPhone lets itself down severely. Although you can have as many YouTube videos as possible, you cannot access Vimeo or LiveVideo, which is pretty bad. At least the Wii contained a version of the Flash plug-in so we could use websites more efficiently, instead of no version of it leaving you annoyed and hairless.

And those are my views on the iPhone.

Not exactly a compliment sandwich, more of a compliment Big Mac.

Oh wow

I haven't done a post in a while, so this is to let you know I still care.

It's like forgetting that you really need to do a massive shit you've been holding in for a week.

But now it's there.

If anyone cares, I'm typing and publishing this in Word. Oh wows.

I Zeldom Care

I am halfway through completing Twilight Princess, and I have to say it is the most fun game I have every played.

But I can't help to want to see the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, or use a walkthrough to speed up the journey to reach the end prize.

But it seems as though the end prize is a huge trail of credits, interspersed with footage of many stunning views of Hyrule.

If you are still playing Zelda and don't want anything ruining your gameplay experience, DO NOT PLAY THE VIDEO BELOW.

Chris Crocker - The Well Planned and Laid Out Blog Entry

Chris Crocker famously said he came out of his mother's vagina holding his nose in a video describing when he "came out". I, like many other people in this world, think that Mrs Crocker is a smart arsed bastard and should be shot several times in the face. But that is a very vague reason of hating a person, because just by saying that I haven't gone into the context of the reasons. So, sit down on your favourite swirly office chair and let the hate begin.

Crockface lives with his grandmother, who I have total sympathy for. Hearing all this swearing and having her make up stolen all the time must get to her. I know family is family and that she loves Chris but she must get tired after a while. So reason one for hating Crocker is:

1. ANNOYING HIS POOR GRANDMA

Crockface is a pretender, always pretending, acting and lying. He models himself as a woman all the time, but he is unbelievably sexist. And not just jokingly sexist, I'm talking about really outrageously sexist. From pregnancy to periods, Crockface is a rude crude motherlover when it comes to hating on the girls.

2. BLOODY SEXIST

His facial features are changing all the time and have characteristics of animals. For example, here's some animal faces Chris has pulled in the past few videos he has uploaded.






3. BLATANTLY COPIES ANIMALS

Just like his hideously mangled face, his hairdo changes like a traffic light. Either that or he has a wig for every day.



4. HAIR HAIR HAIR

Crockface has hissy fits all the time similar to those what a toddler would do after he had peed himself. He doesn't just throw a wobbler, but he screams and screams and screams until his eyes nearly burst. He once stated that if anything bad happened to love of his life Britney Spears, he would jump off the nearest building and hit the ground leading to obvious death.

5. PATHETICALLY BABYISH
6. RIDICULOUSLY SUICIDAL

BRITNEY SPEARS! HE IS THE NUMBER ONE GREATES FAN OF BRITNEY SPEARS AND MUST BE MURDERED FOR THAT VERY FACT! How can anyone of any religion, race, age or state of mind like Britney Spears to so much of a state where they make their own shrine of photographs of her. It doesn't make sense, much like Crockface. Actually, thinking of it now, the only person who could like Britney must be in the same mental state as Britney. Hmmm...

7. LIKES BRITNEY BECAUSE HE IS EXACTLY LIKE BRITNEY

And I think that just about clears up why I hate Crocker. You could also count the fact he uploads shit and is a complete nutcase, but meh.

Roller Coaster Tycoon - Psycho Edition

I love this little video, because three things appeal to me.

1. It's pointlessly destructive.
2. It features roller coasters.
3. It's computerised.

Conchord, not Concorde

I have recently "discovered" an American HBO delight about a band from New Zealand called Flight of the Conchords.

Basically, Jermaine Clement and Bret McKenzie travel to America (either because they've been kicked out of New Zealand or they're looking for a new life) and sing a hell of a lot of songs. And many, if not all, a bloody hilarious.

I have one hundred noses

A very pointless video here, featuring a man with his wrist in a cast. He has three things that you will never have.

And...

Talking about shredding...

Risk it For a Biscuit

I'm really starting to miss Saturday morning TV, since TMi really isn't appealing to me. I mean proper TV, like the first series of the BBC version of Saturday Show. But none of the weak crap with Angellica Bell and whatshisface who now presents Experimental, I mean the good stuff with Dani Behr and Joe Mace*. The kind of programme which can make kids cry.

EXAMPLE:
A nice cruel game called Risk. The rules are quite simple, take in a prized possession when you visit the Saturday Show studio, get picked to play the game and then choose to risk your fluffy teddy bear you have had since you were a newborn for a signed Backstreet Boys toilet seat cover.

You will then have your poor stuffed bear stuck on a conveyor belt, heading straight towards a metal chute with six circular saws sticking through it in a cartoon-esque style.

You then have to complete a wire maze, spelled out in the word "RiSK". If you finish it within the time limit, Winnie the Pooh will be taken off the belt and you will also win the crapper cover.

If you don't, a grim end will come to Pooh.

Quinton Ames

watching calisthenics from the grandstands.
To reach out into its own vanishing
I. Arctic Scenery
Gray the cloud-like oaks
And piled up at the base of the columns
No name, no meaning. Oh my friends,
The edge of that other square cut from the right
By bloody pool—rattling, gasping his last.
That patch of white at the very end of the road
By trees—or might see as the masonry
To pick up even the quickening of wind
grow hot in the parking lot, though they're
Away from their profundity of surface.
Snow haze gleams like sand.
Your red cheeks radiant against the wind,
At these masses the snow hides from me.
To mark that square, perhaps: were Mère and Père
I do not betray you, I still go forward,
Along the walls are only empty niches,

Poodle gets identity stolen



I really cannot believe this story, it makes me wonder why I turn my computer on.

A dog breeder in North East Wales claims that her prize-winning poodle had his identity stolen over the web.

Lynne Day says that her dog Blue was targeted after his pedigree details were posted online by accident.

A suspect had been trying to pass off Blue as his own, stating that the dog had given birth then tried to sell the puppies to unsuspecting customers.

Police are investigating a complaint by Mrs Day, of Tremeirchion, Denbighshire.

Mrs Day said the scam was brought to her attention last week by a woman from London who had been looking for a standard poodle pup and answered an advert on a dog seller's website.

The woman became suspicious when the seller demanded money up front.

She said the man also spoke in broken English, and sent her pictures of toy poodle pups - not standard poodles.

The seller then forwarded details of Blue's pedigree.

But when the woman checked Blue's pedigree online, she discovered the dog was registered to Mrs Day, and contacted her through a number on Mrs Day's website.

"The woman didn't know whether I was part of the scam or not when she called me," said Mrs Day.

"But she explained everything to me, including the fact the pedigree that was emailed to her was for my dog.

"I was appalled. I contacted North Wales Police, who have been extremely good and are looking into it."

Mrs Day said Blue's details were mistakenly put online by somebody she employed to work on her website.

She added: "The woman began to smell a rat when the seller sent her pictures of toy poodles, which are obviously different to standard poodles.

"He would have said he could get whatever sort of dog she wanted, but we don't think he actually had any dogs.

"He's banking on people sending money up front, which can happen when people are buying pedigree dogs."

In a warning to unsuspecting buyers, she said: "The best way to buy or sell puppies is through the Kennel Club.

"And always get the necessary papers as you pay the money."

A Kennel Club spokeswoman advised breeders and owners against publishing full names and details of their dogs online.

She added: "You should only every buy a dog or a puppy when you see it in the flesh.

"If it is a puppy then you should be seeing it with its mother in the home in which it was born."

Blue won last year won at the Midlands Counties Canine Society Show and the North West Poodle Club. He also competed at Crufts.

Suddenly, in a savage, dreadful bend,
giddy as good kids playing hookey. Now,
And off the white smoke swims
Of the matter of snow here. Both of us have grasped
The ordinary, wide scene which begins
Are muffled into silence that refuses
Still has to be intoned, as in a lonely
the old men burnish stories of Yaz and the Babe
Against which we have been projected? What . . .
Covering the land
The face of a Quos ego),
His sightless eyes horribly watch the air;
Out of the road into a way across
They move against, or through, or by, or toward.
Of Boyg of Normandy . . .
I. Arctic Scenery
Coextensive with everything? How could they know?
Rise, to the muffled chime of churchbell choir.
Blurring the terrain,

HI IM KERMIT

Pointless...? You decide

I never understood Speed Stacking. It's a pointless hobby that empties your wallet quicker than you can stack cups. Most, if not all, of the equipment is very, very, very, pricey.

Yet, some people still feel obliged to splash their cash on mini flower pots and look like a fool flapping their arms like a chicken.

EXAMPLE: (the world record Speed Stacks holder Emily Fox looking an absolute Muppet)


No matter how good people think they are, there's always some much younger and much weaker than them whipping their arses.

EXAMPLES: (a snail being beaten by a younger girl)





What do you make of all this?

Be afraid...

A project involving freebies

I'm taking "Sheridan Blackhead" a tad further. I am going to get as many freebies under the name of Sheridan Blackhead I can, then give them away in fantastic comepetition.

So far I'm getting some Whiskas cat food and some SIM cards.

I'll keep you updated and give you info on how to enter.

Don't worry, I'll try and get better prizes than just cat food.

EDIT - So far I've registered for SIM cards from three different companies, a whole more heckload of cat food, tons of cosmetics, condoms and plasters. More soon!

ZOMFG!

This has to be the worst fetish anyone can have. Only click if you wish to be shocked.

Excuses and spam

Sorry I've been away, I've been performing African drums with some class mates at this place. It was rather fun and they asked me if they could use my footage (which may be online later this week).

Some bits of Hollowell weren't so fun. I fell in a hole and sprained my ankle. Some paramedics in a nice shiny ambulance had to check on it. At least I have a bandage to prove for it.

According to good ol' Google Mail, I have 55 spam emails (and the number gets bigger every minute). This is probably because I signed up for the Zoo magazine newsletter and they think that I might be interested in a bigger penis. No, not really, thank you very much. No need to ask me 55 times about it.

Let me show you some of my spam.

SPAM 1:

Take one capsule twice daily. Maybe you have always felt that your orgasms could be stronger and longer…

As you are my loyal readers and I know some of you are interested in my "projects", I ask you to email these three adressed constanlty. Give them hate mail, death threats, the works. But, sign off as Mr. Sheridan Blackhead (all will become clear soon enough).

I'm just off to read some more spam.

Live cock ups

Sky News have a YouTube channel too, believe it or not. But it seems they're only using it to show off their bloopers.




Hurgh.

Penguins and that

I was horrendously surprised to see CBeebies's best had it's own YouTube channel.

Nope, not Fireman Sam. Neither Bill & Ben.

It's PINGU.

Take a look at this hilarious snippet of probably my favourite cartoon of my primary school years.



More Pingu here.

And take a look at probably the worst cartoon theme tune ever.

Utterly pointless

Take a look at this hilarious, yet somewhat disturbing video of a pelican downing a pigeon.



If anyone's interested, I'll be getting a Wii on Friday, and a video will be joining it.

In other news, there's some brand spanking new videos.

Holy cakearoony!

I'm pretty sure you've seen the latest Skoda advert. If not, you need a smack. But I won't give you one, I'll just give you this:



Anyway, I think it's worth mentioning that Skoda made a behind the scenes video about the cake ad, which is rather good.

A remixer.

YouTube has come up with the YouTube Remixer, so you can edit all your uploaded videos together, add a bit of music and some titles. And the results end up looking a bit better than the standard ones.

Here's my attempt at YouTube Remixing, see what you think of it.



And if you want to subscribe to meh channel, clicky here, here or there ---->here.

EDIT - Hmmm, YouTube seems to have buggered that video, so see the intended one here.

I need bed

G'night.

Lego of me you weirdo

Readers of Knifewriter would know about a kid called Jamavamo who builds cars out of Lego using no help or instruction leaflets then crashes them into each other. Example below.



The are more and more and more and more of these videos, but let me get to the point.

Destroying toys seems to be a new YouTube craze, even if people do it for fun or to satisfy their weird fetishes.

One example of a video injecting kicks (related to feet):



One example of a video injecting kicks (not related to feet):


It is now safe to turn off your computer.

Holy titsticks

Someone gave Davina McCockledoodledo a camcorder and let her in the Big Brother house. Amazing*.



*ly poor

Been a while...

I'm sorry, but I was in Turkey all last week and I didn't find anything worth blogging about. But some good news (depending on how you look at it) is that I'm starting a regular vlog. I still have nothing decent to post here because I've prepared a bunch of stuff for the vlog, so I'll leave you with this website, given to me by Evan from WTB Daily.

I might get "head-doctor" condoms done.

Wootings

I made a few videos.

IKEA

This video has somewhat inspired me.



So, because of this, me and the regulars are going to make a video response, that I assure you will be worth watching.

Watch this space.

Swim

I'm sure many of you are aware of the work of Adult Swim, do I don't really need to bother about blogging about them.

But something really caught my eye about this video, of which embedding of is disabled by request.

God bless Seth Green indeed.



EDIT - Another Adult Swim video which isn't a load of balls.

Promotion

As none of you know (except Ritchie), I went to the Sunderland game on Friday which was live on Sky Sports HD :P. Sky wouldn't let me in their truck, but I did get a go of one of their HD cameras at half time. As few of you know and even care about, Sunderland were promoted today, so as a tribute, here's a lap of honour from Friday's game (not filmed by me, but I did get some footage of the lap of honour).

Tart

My dad infamously went to an infamous game of football played infamously by the infamous Vinnie Jones. Infamously, my infamous dad shouted to the infamously angry football player "Vinnie, you tart!" and recieved an infamous look.

Infamously, you can probably guess where I'm going after I've mentioned infamous Vinnie Jones infamously and show you his new infamous RAC ad in an infamous way. Infamously.

Smoking

Blunty3000 has quit smoking and has assured us that it has been an easy process with no side effects. But I'm not sure...

Baaah

More Rayman Raving Rabbids, I saw the explosion one on Nickelodeon at my aunts today. I really want it.





Larvely!

Panic

I'm a large fan of the Panic Room as I really do like watching people freak out over absoultely nothing at all.

If you want to see a nice video of some scared people, clicky here (the Beeb won't allow video embedding now, will they?).

Hoo hoo hoo hoo hee he he he haaaa!

Wikipimpia

I pimped up my Wikipedia page with links and userboxes an' all that.

Chekkit!

Pecs

This is what YouTube was made for, overrated people showing off their bodies.

*yawn*.

Grave

Comedian Lou Ryder has started the YouTube Video Cemetary, a place where you can lie your frankly shit videos to rest. If you don't believe me, here's a video.



I've added an old episode of "Magical Internet" I made a while back.

A few other videos that are worthy of their spaces are these.









Hmmm.
