A letter from the Tooth Fairy head office

“My husband is not my soul mate” – excerpt:

“Soon I’m going to let my daughters in on the “soul mate” secret. That it’s made up and dangerous and unrealistic. That their God loves them more than any man ever could and that no one will ever come along and complete them the way they long to be completed. Their longing isn’t of this world.”

Animal Photobombing

“What is the difference between a physicist, an engineer, and a mathematician?
If an engineer walks into a room and sees a fire in the middle and a bucket of water in the corner, he takes the bucket of water and pours it on the fire and puts it out.
If a physicist walks into a room and sees a fire in the middle and a bucket of water in the corner, he takes the bucket of water and pours it eloquently around the fire and lets the fire put itself out.
If a mathematician walks into a room and sees a fire in the middle and a bucket of water in the corner, he convinces himself there is a solution and leaves.”

This week’s internet highlights

23 05 2014

I want to cut back on my facebook and twitter posting a bit, and so I thought it might be more effecient if I save the things I see on the internet that I like and amalgamate them into a weekly blog post. I’ll try and settle on a regular date at some point, but as I’m internetless all weekened, this week I’m just posting a few bits from the latter half of this week since I decided this would be fun (and one from last week, that’s just too good not to include).

People who are too stupid for their own good – a bit hit and miss, and rude in places, but some are fantastic!

The first time I saw this one I claimed it was one of the best things I’ve seen on the internet:

And something nice and topical to finish with…
