Top tips (part 2)

Here's another batch of light-hearted top tips covering a variety of subjects such as coconuts, teenagers and wigs...

"Wow, he won a coconut!
He must be really good at throwing things!"
1) Impressionists. Perfect your Hugh Grant impression by counting up to three in Roman numerals.


2) Convince people you're good at throwing things by walking around a fairground holding a coconut.


3) Parents. Prepare your children for Game of Thrones by ending every Mr Men book with 'and then he dies'.

10 weird websites

Previously on the Charles Fudgemuffin blog I've featured all manner of weirdness, including, to name but a few, weird national days, weird google searches, and weird facebook likes. This week the weirdness continues with another weird round-up as I take a look at ten weird websites...

1) Infinite zoom


The image just keeps zooming in and zooming in forever.
If you're into art then you might find this first website absolutely amazing. I'm not really that interested in art, and I still found it amazing!

It starts with an unusual image, which starts to zoom in. After a few seconds you begin to realise that it's zooming in further than you thought, and then before long you realise that it's apparently zooming in forever!

Ten cheesy chat-up lines for Valentine's Day.

Digital love.
Here's a bonus chat-up line to start things off...

The TV show 'Humans' is set in an alternate future where we share the world with robots or 'synths'.  One of the characters is attracted to her synth, and she asks it to pay her a compliment.  Her robot turns on the charm and replies:

"Your body mass index is well within the recommended range for someone of your age, weight and height."

What a charmer!

Anyway, for any non-robots reading this, here are ten chat-up lines specific to specific types of people...


1) Rich person's chat-up line ...

"Gosh, your lipstick is the same colour as my Ferrari!"



2) Liar's chat-up line...

"Gosh, your lipstick is the same colour as my Ferrari!"

Funny things kids say (part 6)

Once again it's time on the Charles Fudgemuffin blog for another collection of funny things that kids say. The following quotes come from facebook, twitter, and real life...

"Amusing contrivances urchins sayeth (part 6)."

1) Diplomacy skills (part 1)


This was posted by a facebook friend:

Katie: "Mam, did you come from the Tudor times?"
Me: "I know I have grey hair, but how old do think I am!?" 😡😂

As a reminder, the Tudor period was from 1485 to 1603!




2) Kid geography


Here's one involving a class full of Marvel fans...

"My nephew has a new classmate from Zimbabwe and upon discovering that Zimbabwe is in Africa (these kids are 6), the first thing everyone asked him is if he'd been to Wakanda. His reply, "No, there are force fields around it."

And also because Wakanda isn't real. In fact mainly the not real part.
