Drink, Drive, Die

Originally uploaded by Jani Helle

This might have been completely accidental, but it sure is funny, in an ironic way.

In Espoon Keskus (Espoo, Finland), there’s a building that houses a bar (baari), a driving school (autokoulu), and a funeral service (hautauspalvelu), all under the same roof.

Be it accidental or not, it does portray the message pretty aptly: Drinking + Driving = Death

Wonder how business is going in the establisments?

What Were They Thinking…?

This is not a joke, no photoshop or anything… It’s a Hungarian anis-menthol candy… And yes, the candy is black in color… There are other flavours available, which also means different colors…

Crappy Gas Mask

July 5, 2007 Jani 10 comments

Here’s a snapshot from an advertisement:

Gas Mask

In case you don’t speak Finnish, the ad is for a gas mask (5 euros). The text reads, loosely:

Gas Mask decommisioned by the Finnish Army
Gas Mask+filter+bag
Does not fill official safety regulations!

 Right, so, um, the gas masks the Finnish Army used to use did not fill official safety regulations? Interesting… Now I know why we could always get a healthy wiff of the tear gas…

Forget The iPhone, Here’s The iCat And The iDog!

In case you missed it, the second coming of Jesus apparently occurred last friday (June 29th) at 6pm in the United States in the form of the Apple iPhone, aka the JesusPhone… (Not going to cover that event or product because there are MILLIONS of websites covering the iPhone and its release last week. Just google it, or go to ANY gadget site…)

The Chinese have a knack at producing things which try to ride off the fame of another product. I found a few notebooks at work the other day, several years old, which seem to be riding on the “i” wagon…

Introducing… The iDog!

The title says it quite well… Haven’t actually seen the truckdriver yet, so I don’t know if the sticker is a joke or something to really hold true… Hit the picture for a larger image, or do likewise for the thumbnails below…

This is exactly the footprint that you want to leave on a bad day, isn’t it? A smiling gekko flipping the bird…. Hit the picture for a larger image.
