Knocking Off

Supremely funny blog containing nothing but pictures of hilariously rubbish unlicensed products from around the world.

Witness the majesty of toys such as 'Star Night', Transformable Tomas' and lots of quality Ingrish translations!

Yeah, better season than most have been in recent years...still prefer the fuel related pit-stops but can't really complain.

Wonder what weird and wonderful rule changes we'll have to get our heads around next season?

Yeah the new iTouch looks nice, just got to wait for mine to blow up...sadly not looking that likely at the moment! Cursed Apple quality standards!

I was reading a photo book about the blitz and it was amazingly destructive! It was also unnervingly random, no laser-guided bombs precisely targetting factories... just sling the lot out the plane when you reckon you're in the right spot. The photos are indeed poignant, matching them up perfectly ...

Some of those are very impressive and poignant. Cheers for the link!

The signal dropping affects all phones...a couple of guys in work have HTC devices and if you touch the aerial spot on those the signal frequency drops. Ok, so the placement (top of the phone) of the aerial probably makes for less of an issue when calling, but its an inherent problem in all phones. ...

It's pretty much like watching an documentary for some of us!

Plus all the footy related rubbish on web-sites (Dabs are not immune, sadly)...totally un-needed!

A sneaky effort indeed!

In other World Cup news, Rio's been injured by Heskey and misses the competition.

Oh the irony! I was thinking of getting the PS3 but knew more people with Xboxs (and it was cheaper) so I went with that. If only we had co-ordinated then we could have rounded up an online multiplayer game. I guess it won't be cross platform compatable. At least you had a good excuse of the purcha...

My not-so-bargain purchase last week was a PS3 with Red-Dead Redemption (birthday present to myself). I have to agree that it is superb even the moments where you're not rounding up bad guys or helping out around the ranch and are just stomping around the plains are fantastic. I have to agree with y...

mr_e, if that rule was so non-obvious then why were all the commentators aware of it. It's a failing of the team and driver not to understand all the rules, Schumacher obviously knew and he's been out of racing for a few years. The result should stand and Alonso should be given a solid smack upside ...

Nikon need to look at it this way...from a recent survey (see here for article), 10% of PCs accessing the internet are doing so using a Windows 7 operating system. That number is only going to increase over the coming months as more and more people upgrade to 7, leaving Vista and XP usage to drop. £...

The only problem with PR is that with it, the BNP would have almost certainly won seats, without it they got the ass kicking they deserve! Not sure how on earth this coalition goverment is going to work, in all fairness, it probably won't! But as Phil said, it's what we've got so we've got to live w...
