Gadget Of The Week

There are so many weird/funny/useless and quite disturbing gadgets for sale nowadays. That is what inspired me to choose the gadget of the week. I'll try to post every weekend (or any other replacing day) the stupidest and craziest gadgets.

This week I found a (little bit gross and awkward) soap or shower-gel dispenser. A rubber nose!
I have no idea why one would actually want to hang such an odd, nose-shaped soap dispenser on his/her wall in the bath room. But it looked funny, and there are always some crazy people who buy this sort of crap. And I like sharing the weird things produced on this fascinating, but scary world. Then we can laugh together about the stupid things a human brain has ever thought of and actually made work out of it!
For the (crazy) people who are interested in this weird gadget you can go to this site.
!!!Please look for other sites >>>before buying this object<<< yourself, because the one I've given might not be the cheapest!!!

Shel is a genius

A few months ago I needed to have a poem for school. So I started searching for poems on the internet, in this way I found a site about this fantastic poet Shel Silverstein. Visit the site by clicking on this link.

" "A genuine anteater,"
The pet man told my dad
Turned out, it was an aunteater,
And now my uncle's mad! "
- Shel Silverstein, The Anteater

The following poem is the actual one I used for school. I did have to translate it first, because the poem needed to be in Dutch. If someone really really wants to read my translation, just ask. And before you start reading this poem, it might come in handy to know that Runny Babbit (a rabbit) is the main character of this poem, and every that now and then some words are a lil' scrambled up. And this poem might not be complete, but this was the only part I could find on the site.

" On a mosty frornin'  Runny woke
And heeked outside his pole,
And he saw all the wugs and borms
A-ceezin' in the frold.

The flagondries, the hassgroppers,
And patercillars, too,
Were shiverin' and quiverin'
As freezin' creatures do.

So runny sook them all intide,
Where it was carm and wozy.
He rubbed each tiny tozen froe
He warmed each ice-nold cosie.

He fed them nice hot sarrot coup,
And after they were fed,
He blapped them up in wrankets
And but them all to ped. "
- Shel Silverstein, Runny's hind keart


If you like these poems, or if you're bored, please visit Shel's site! On his site you can find parts of his poems in moving images! You should really see them. They make the poems even better. But, of course, everyone has its own opinion, so just check it out to find out what you think of it (and let me know by posting a comment on this message).

Peanut Butter

It's not that I think that peanut butter has the best flavour of all edible things in the entire world, but I just happen to like peanut butter as an object. As a thing to talk about. As a thing with an interesting substance. As a Wonderful thing with a capital 'W'.



And just for your information: I really didn't! I am smart enough to use a knife to spread it on a slice of bread instead of putting my finger in the jar. :p

In love

" He allegedly fell for me
Through an open window
Cracked his chest open
To reveal his heart

(...)

I climbed upon his shoulders
And laughed until I cried
The view and I collide
To see this through his eyes "
- Maria Mena, I'm in love again

Shane on YouTube

Shane Dawson is a famous vlogger (video-web logger) on YouTube. I think he is really funny and awesome.

Watch his own version of Lady Gaga's song 'Telephone'

Random: Pure Chance

Heei. 

Even though I initially wanted to start vlogging on YouTube, I ended up here: on Blogspot. This has a few reasons. If you're in a hurry or just bored, choose either 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. And then read the reason with that number.
1. I have no webcam or video camera that I am allowed to use on a regular base. (Loooser)
2. I have no idea how to upload a film on YouTube. (I'm not a geek) And I'm too lazy to find out how to do that.
3. I'm positive no one would like to watch the videos.
4. Then I need to cut and edit the film. And I don't like to do that.
5. Just because I'm bored and I need to get rid of all these random thoughts that are flying through my head.
