In reply to Fun: why isn't there enough?, posted by Tabßitha on September 25, 2002, at 1:46:27
...if you can call it fun. I do.
O mighty Destroyer of Pulmonata, you need to try slightly different wording for your searches. Typing in variations on fun is not enough - you need to include a defining phrase such as "how to". You'd be amazed what you'd come up with.
Whenever I need more info on fixing or repairing or doing anything for myself that I'm not knowledgable enough about, I do a search with "how to" in it. "how to" "toilet repairs" - voila! a fix-it-yourself site. So try typing in "how to have fun" & go from there.
Another poster tried it & got How To Have Fun In A Wheelchair http://glensfallsdisabled.freehomepage.com/omegatrac/index.htm & asked if I'd send it along.
Want to try to identify those bothersome snails & slugs in your garden? Try http://scan.nmgw.ac.uk/snailchart.en.shtml for the Snail Chart.
I love Homestar Runner (he of Fluffy Marshmallow fame)
http://www.homestarrunner.com/toons.htmlVideos? Try http://www.hypnotic.com/ & under Channels menu at the very top of the page (hard to notice)
& if you pick Comedy or Animation from the selections, you'll get some great short videos to watch.Another favourite (I don't know how many times I've seen it) is *****Tenacious D*****'s video of them performing their song
'Tribute' at http://www.tenaciousd.com/video/tributefullvid_300.asx
Unfortunately, it's now become well known & is very popular so it's difficult to link onto the server to see it. But if you can, it's a absolute MUST!!
Their Wonder Boy is pretty good too. http://www.tenaciousd.com/video/wonderboyfullvid_300.asx
Try connecting during an off-time like the dead of night when the server isn't so busy. I promise you won't regret watching it.I got a laugh out of Despair.com FAQ - as they say
"There are no stupid questions, but there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots."
http://www.despair.com/despairfaq.htmlSomething a little sweeter (okay, I'm a sucker for cats) is the Cat Humour Page:
http://allcatz.tripod.com/page/CatHumor.htmHow about Cap'n Wacky's Boatload of Fun?
http://www.capnwacky.com/ - another favourite of mine.How about signs in other countires that mangle the English language, resulting in some pretty hilarious meanings? Then check out
www.engrish.com & select from the menu on the left to see pix of these products.
Under Engrish drinks is a coffee drink called BM.
Or under Apparel is a T-shirt that says "I hate myself & want to die" decorated with hearts & rainbows.Enough fun yet?
