: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DOING THIS WEEK
  Other than making suspicious jam
  
  * IMMIGRANT CAT -  The Ghost of Fungus Past
  writes, "Somebody on Reddit's cat meowed in a
  way that seemed familiar..."
https://www.youtube.com/watch

  * SMASH ROBOTS DANCE REMIX - your editor Rob
  Manue1 writes, "Made a bit of a track out of
  the old Smash robots ad." 
http://b3ta.com/links/1548478

  * BUY CASSETTE BOY'S ALBUM - CB writes "Before
  we made mash-up videos, we made mash-up
  albums. Today we've released a new version of
  our favourite one, which tells the story of a
  human life using samples nicked from Doctor
  Who, EastEnders and loads more."
http://cassetteboy.bandcamp.com

  * KIDSTRIKE - HappyToast writes, "I did a
  video for a song by Jim Bob (Carter USM)"
http://b3ta.com/links/1548376 

-------------------------------------------------

"Flash! Ah-ah. Saviour of the universe." We put
it to you that the 'ah-ah' bit came about
because singing "Gordon" sounded silly.

-------------------------------------------------

: BUY A SWEARY SCARF YOU CUNTS
  Yes. A scarf that swear

  Hebtro are now selling scarfs with swearing on
  them, and they'd love suggestions for new
  phrases. Rude and all made in the UK too. Buy
  them now before they sell the fuck out.

-------------------------------------------------

What supermarket would Tess Daly use after she
married Sebastian Coe? Probably Waitrose as
she'd still be quite affluent.

-------------------------------------------------

: SITES IN BRIEF
  Flat, slow, clicky video
  
  * SCARCITY CREATES DESIRE - queue up to view a
  web page one at a time, some people seem to be
  hogging it for hours.
https://exclusive.website
  
  * HARRODS ONLINE - 15,000 page 1912 Harrods
  catalogue has been digitised. Page takes weeks
  to load but it's fun seeing that you could buy
  cocaine, and lark pies.
https://blog.pgdp.net/2020/08/01/harrods-for-every...

  * BALL GAG - Ronnie O'Sullivan's 147 break but
  every time he pots a ball John Virgo says
  'Where's the cue ball going' 
https://www.youtube.com/watch

 * FLYING MONORAIL - This footage from 1902 is
 like a vision of a sci-fi future that never
 happened. 
https://b3ta.com/links/A_flying_train

  * AIRPORT SIM - Ambient music and airport
  chatter go really well together. Wish there
  was an easter egg to play some Airplane clips,
  though.
http://listentothe.cloud

  * THE MONTH THAT NEVER ENDS - a simple, but
  effective, gag.
https://calendar2020.noj.cc

-------------------------------------------------

U2 could be a quite atmospheric instrumental
band if they just got rid of that shouty
gobshite holding them back.

-------------------------------------------------

: FESSHOLE
  Your anonymous confessions, fessed up for lols

  Each week we ask you to confess stuff and then
  stick all your lies in one place. Here's the
  best this week:

  * SCHOOL - "When at school, me and my mate
  took some paper with the school letterhead on.
  We used it to write a letter to our other
  mate's parents telling them he had been caught
  wanking at school. It caused chaos between the
  school and his parents but we stayed silent."

  * "KAREN" - "My name is Karen but I introduce
  myself as Kay now, because thanks to white,
  racist, American women, my name might as well
  be fucking 'Adolf'"

  * DRUUUUGS - "Around 18 year ago I took a load
  of ecstasy in the house alone and woke up to
  discover I'd changed all the contacts in my
  phone to the name 'Jeff'. Took me weeks to
  sort out."

  Join the 84,000 shits that have followed this
  junk.

-------------------------------------------------

How realistic is Batman: could you imagine Elon
Musk or Jeff Bezos dressing up a in a cape,
sneaking out at night and punching muggers
rather than giving them a bursary so crime
wasn't necessary?

Yes.
