Or is the internet not as fantastically random as it used to be?

Someone surprise me with something I've not seen online before.

No porn please.

Edit, can someone give my Henry Rollins for my birthday please.

On the other though it will take me just 10 minutes before I remember how bloody frustrating and difficult the game is.

I was just browsing the bbc website, and all areas are about the wedding and road closures etc. The Hull region headline was:

Surreal operatic experience I have to share with the internet.
I've just had a brief meeting about tax with a member of our chorus who had nipped out of dress rehearsals for a forthcoming opera.

He was a very nice chap indeed, which was slightly disconcerting considering that he's singing the role of Hitler.

What surreal events have happened to you lately?

If only I knew of somewhere that would provide a bunch of people dedicated to making/remixing stupid videos...
