Latest: 18.05.12 Project 13 @ Joshua Brooks

Welcome to our new weekly feature, which at the moment we're calling Cyberwaste until someone thinks of a funnier title. Every week we'll be bringing you a top-ten list of the stupid, interesting and generally pointless stuff we "just so happen" to happen across and bookmark on our travels through the web.

footprints

10. Footprints

First up this week is simply a lesson in common sense and something I would've thought was pretty obvious - don't go robbing people's houses when it's just snowed (just to be safe, I suppose we should state this: we don't condone burglary!)

Although, I really don't think it really warranted praising the "initiative" of the guy who made the arrest...

It's not cool to rob people, especially in the snow.

 

 



clever-ads

9: Clever adverts

At number 9 this week is a list of 10 clever adverts that have been built into buildings around the world. If you're bored of the current wave of TV adverts and boring bill boards, this should stir your imagination a bit...

horses

8: Horses

Probably not something for any of our younger readers, though rest assured there's no images to accompany the story.

Note the stark wording of the sentence, "charged with a serious sexual offence against a donkey".

Each to their own I suppose

 

 



7: That old man on the escalator

Lots of you have probably seen this, but James wets himself every time he sees it so I thought it was worth digging up. [/left]
 


6: Japanese gameshow set in a library

As you can probably gather if you've been following our other posts about Japanese people hitting each other with lightbulbs, we like our share of Oriental goodness - and this is no exception. [/left]

It takes a while to get going but once you see the "Slapping Machine" your life will never be the same.
 



bipedal-dog

5: Faith the bipedal sog

This is a bit tragic to be honest, but it's definitely worth a mention. Faith was apparently born with three legs, had to have one amputated, and now gets about just on her back two.

If you're ever feeling demotivated, give this a look, it's inspirational stuff.

phoneshop

4: PhoneShop

If you've not seen any of Channel 4's Comedy Showcase, you should definitely give it a look - there's a few pretty funny programmes well worth checking out, including Guantanamo Phil, Plus One, and our personal favourite, PhoneShop.

There's only one episode, which revolves around new-man Chris as he tries to get to grips with his new job...

facebook-fail

3: Massive Facebook fail

A little bit of advice on what to do if you just so happen to have strict Muslim parents, and your little sister tells them you've been drinking.

Pretty brutal, but too funny too miss out.

"If he cuts his hair, I might give him a blowjob."


egg-mcmuffin

2: The birth of the Egg McMuffin

Another quality find by Synkro, who's apparently on a quest to learn all there is to know about McDonalds.

Whatever his intentions, this has got to be one of the greatest pieces of writing in the history of mankind. I don't know how much people get paid to write this stuff but it must be quite a lot because I wasn't aware that just by eating a McMuffin I was biting into such an amazing piece of history, but that's the case according to their website.

Check out big Ron's "relentless creativity and innovation."

 



1: Burger King bonus fail

Without a doubt though - and continuing the fast-food theme - this weeks number one spot has got to go to this video. If you've already seen it you'll know why it's here, if you haven't then watch it and find out...


Well, that's your lot for this week. It's been emotional, I'm sure you'll agree. If you come across anything you think deserves putting in next week's list, feel free to send it to dropbox@examplemagazine.com and we'll have a gander.

Until then, next time you go for breakfast at McDonalds, remember that you're not just getting a muffin, you're getting the latest in a legacy of innovation.
