I only get to use about 45 words in this excerpt and I going to use them to tell you that I would need at least 100 times that just to come close to explaining the sheer, overwhelming awesomeness of the video you are about to watch. Prepare to be inspired.
Prince William proposed to his lady. She said yes. He will become king. She will become queen. Bid farewell to any hopes of a moderately normal life, Kate. Yours is all polo, stifled conversation, funny clothing and sex scandals from now on. On the up side, you will be living in a palace for the vast majority of it.
Wait, no, that’s not right. People who are overweight have a better SENSE of smell. In the continuing search for the real cause of obesity, researchers at the University of Portsmouth have established a correlation between obesity and heightened sense of smell. Presumably those who can smell the bacon first get the bacon first.
I’ll be honest, it HAS been on my mind. I mean, everyone goes on about battery-life and camera quality and storage space and keyboard use and reception, when everyone is actually, consciously skirting around the real issue at hand – how do they handle on a braai grid? Which one dies first? What happens after that? All revealed after the jump!
The other day, while I was busying myself writing articles about men who use Gumtree to swap citizenship for sex, a German artist was doing something infinitely more radical.
As part of an a contemporary art exhibition in London called Drift, Frank Bölter created an enormous paper boat and sailed the Thames in it.
At the beginning of the Formula One season, Richard Branson and the owner of low-cost Malaysian airline AirAsia and the F1 team currently known as Lotus, Tony Fernandes, placed a bet that would see the one whose F1 team lost serve as a stewardess on the winner’s airline. Branson lost the bet!
Ever wondered how Jimmy Bullard pulls off the debonair look the way he does? I recently found the answer as Bullard was cast in the 21st birthday advert for all-in-one shampoo, Wash-‘N-Go in March this year. Ever the comical character, the Hull City midfielder should give up football and become a style-guru. [VIDEO]
A shitstorm is brewing, quite literally, on the Atlantic Seaboard as Bakoven residents find themselves up in arms about a recent sewerage leak. It’s so bad now that even the NSRI refuse to train! Warning: following this link will take you to a report which includes an uncensored version of this article’s main photo. Sis!
For something that started out as a ‘movement,’ has now manifested itself into an overwhelming crescendo of consensus. Random phone calls are OVER. In her article entitled, ‘The Phone Call Is Dead,’ Alexia Tsotsis from Tech Crunch touched on a few of the indisputable points that 2oceansvibe has been giving for the last few years.
If you enjoyed part 1 and part 2 (very well received!) of the hilarious 2oceansvibe Whisky Festival with Jack Daniels series, then you’re gonna love this final episode. It features none other than Stormers rugby player, Anton can Zyl. Watch as we find out about the team’s drinking habits, as well as how fond women […]
Apple Gets The Rights To Sell Beatles On iTunes – Any hardened iTunes user (I trust you’ve visited getusitunesaccount.com) will know that the only Beatles available on iTunes are Beatles tribute bands. Well that won’t be for much longer, as it looks like Apple and EMI records have come to an..how you say… agreement. Finally, […]
Chris Nolan, auteur behind the no-longer-embarassing Batman franchise, has started gearing up for the third installment of the rebooted series – The Dark Knight Rises. Apparently Nolan wants two female leads this time, just to rub it in Katie Holmes’ face. Potential candidates and gallery after the jump.
Have you ever had a sports coach that berated you even if you conceded just one try/goal/point, but still won? I found there was always one coach who demanded perfection that was a bit beyond his/her team (particularly if they were coaching the U16C hockey side). It appears China women’s football coach has some pretty high standards.
If you missed out on the Goldfish show yesterday at Central Park, all I can say is shame. There was simply nothing more important happening yesterday in Cape Town.
The weather – hot, the beer – cold, the bikinis – plentiful, the moustaches – outstanding.
Jeremy Clarkson and the Top Gear team give us an exclusive look into what really goes into the making of The Stig. Come and take a tour around the Stig farm and get to see what really goes on behind the scenes as they reveal The New Stig.
Come on, be honest, the old footage just wasn’t doing it for you. You needed something new, something fresh. Well I tell you what, Kim Jong il has done it for us. He basically brought in a whole squadron of professional videographers and the result is right here – the most MIND-BLOWING video (set perfectly to music) of Kim Jong il’s army – with rockets and everything.
Fantastically funny ad campaign by Arab Dairy for their Panda Cheese, which doesn’t have anything to do with pandas, but don’t let that get in the way of enjoying these videos.
Gwyneth Paltrow gave her first live country music performance at the CMAs, singing the theme song for her upcoming movie, ‘Country Strong’. Is it just me, or does she look a tad nervous? There’s a lot of blinking going on. And let’s not mention the unplugged guitar. Strum it hard, Gwyny!
It was with a great sense of pride that I watched the Springboks grind out the most narrow of victories against the Welsh on Saturday. While blood streamed down Huw Bennett’s face, the victorious Boks held their exhausted arms aloft. The next time we meet will be in Wellington on September 11 next year. We have a lot to look forward to.
If you’re trying to sell air tickets, it’s a very, very bad idea to have the words “death” and “holiday” in the same advertisement. 1Time Airlines, who have apparently taken up the mantle from Nationwide as South Africa’s scariest airline, have done just that with this delightful email campaign. Your Monday morning dose of badvertising, after the jump.
A genius new website has launched which seems to be in full support of a cause that 2oceansvibe has championed for many years. PleaseShutUp.com clearly and humorously outlines the grossly antisocial, selfish and ridiculous behaviour found in modern day society – that of making and receiving random unplanned and unexpected phone calls.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: drunk Facebooking ruins lives.
Thankfully the good people at Webroot Software have seen the urgent need to curb this scourge of humanity.
Rachel Green and Paul Chandler – Free at last [photo:AFP] Somali Pirates Release British Couple After More Than A Year – Somali pirates on Sunday released the British couple Paul and Rachel Chandler, who had been kidnapped more than a year ago as they slept on their yacht 800 miles off the East African coast.Their […]
Ok I’m not kidding you, there is some quality humour here. Jack Daniel would probably turn in his grave if he knew, but I simply had to get into character and experience Jack Daniels in the way that some of his more wild fans have done (think Guns & Roses..). And so we cruised around […]
As an iPhone fanboy I must say I did find the cries for a 2oceansvibe Radio Android app overwhelming. Fair play to you guys 😉 And so finally it is here – Making 2oceansvibe Radio now available on iPhone, Blackberry, Facebook, Android, Tivoli Radios and the new MINI! And for those of you clever enough […]
Celebrity chef and master of self-expression, Gordon Ramsay, just cannot catch a break. After recently having his Cape Town restaurant shut down, he was then going to be litigated by Sol Kerzner. Now, weirdly, after sacking his father in law, Chris Hutcheson, his wife’s family are not very agreeable.
Cao ni zu zong shi ba dai. It’s probably about time I learned to speak Mandarin. According to research just published by the Conference Board, a highly respected research institute, the Chinese economy will overtake that of the poor old US by 2012 in terms of output.
Rockstar Games have released a debut trailer for their latest open-worlder: L.A. Noire. The game is set to be released in American Spring 2011 and will offer a different experience for those who enjoy blundering about a virtual map shouting obscentities, while waxing lyrical with a friend about bashing an elderly bystander’s head in with the back of a stolen car.
Earlier today we told you about Paul Chambers, the nice young man from Ireland who has been convicted of “menace” after joking on Twitter about airport security.
The message was clear. Don’t joke about airport security. Unless, of course, you ARE airport security.
Paul Chambers, a 27-year-old UK accountant has been charged with and convicted of making “menacing” Teets. He had hoped that the case would be dismissed as the stupid prank that it was – and angled for a knocked down £1,000 fine. Instead, Judge Jacqueline Davies had his appeal dismissed on every count. Sorry, what?
