TopGear – What’s it all about?

TopGear – What’s it all about? TopGear - What's it all about?

TopGear – it’s a programme about cars, I love it, you love it, we all love it. However, at the moment it’s having an identity crisis as to what it should be about. Me being me (that’s me; everyone’s favourite Jim, not you reading ‘me’ as you), will explain why, along with my reasoning as to why I think it should go back to how it was.

Number Nine – Animal Cruelty Week

Not a conscious effort, but this week seems to have turned itself into Animal Cruelty Week. Sometimes these moments of genius just happen, they’re not planned. Before you all start complaining and whining I must state that during the course of creating this week’s Roundup no animals were harmed, but a lot of laughs were had at their expense.

This week: Beavers, cats, squirrels, monkeys, elephants and more

Number Eight – No More Quotes

It’s taken eight editions of the Internet Roundup, and the funny quotes have gone. You may well miss them but let’s be honest, they weren’t all that funny and were just a little something to pop on the bottom. So now I put it to you… what should go at the bottom if anything at all? Suggestions can include a small lump of red leicester, Lord Lucan, or a 20p voucher for Tesco. They’re my suggestions, you can do better.

This week: Space shuttles, Bad predictions, Lazy Disney, Armadillos, Hungry bears, Kittens, Lemmings and more

Number Seven – I’m an Internet Whore

Don’t look at me! Don’t look at me! I’m so shy! What’s up with some people on the internet? They treat it like some kind of diary, moaning about their teenage angst, whining about their miserable lives and how depressed they are when they’ve only been on the planet for next to no time. People, people, the internet is for sillyness and fun, like this:

This week: Internet Cam Whores, Nickleback trot, Expensive Amazon, Men in coats, Farting Pigs, Women drivers and more

Number Five – Nothing Funnier than Cats

I’d like someone to sow me something that is funnier than cats. Cat pictures? Hilarious. Cat videos? Genuinely laugh out loud funny, on the verge of urinating in one’s own trousers. I don’t know why, but I can be having a really shit day and I can see a funny cat and it makes the world seem right. I think instead of sending soldiers into Iraq, just send funny cats. The world would be a better place.

This week: Funny Cats, Funny Baby, Big Boxes, Magic, Spiders, Sand, and more.

Why is the Sky Blue?

Why is the Sky Blue? Why is the Sky Blue?

Everyone thinks that no-one knows why the sky is blue. It’s one of those questions used as a retort to a silly/unanswerable question ie “Why doesn’t the government spend more money on hospitals and education?” retort – “Why is the sky blue?” It just is. Well, there’s reason behind it, and thanks to Science Gimp you’ll soon find out.
