: MONEY STUCK TO THE GROUND
Would you pick it up?
"I've glued money to the pavement," writes Dex,
"then filmed people trying to pick it up and put
the results up for all to see."
This is a classic trick, but it still works.
Worth a look to laugh at the hapless passers-by.

: MAN MILK OR MOO MILK
Can you tell?
Barry Sonic writes -
"What happened to all the b3ta quizzes? There
hasn't been one for ages."
Hmm. You want a quiz? You've got a quiz. This
is the muckiest idea we could think up. Are
you happy now?

: B3TA PARTY
London, Next Friday
We're holding a party. Yes. A party. There
will be drink. There will be people. It will
rock.
Come. It'll be the bestest thing ever.

: WHAT B3TA PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAKING THIS WEEK
Stalker girlfriends, Horse, Retro music & Xmas
>> Angel of Doom <<
"Me and my mate James have made an Angel of
Doom", writes Joel Veitch, "You likey?" Yes
we do Joel. It's utterly stupid.
http://www.rathergood.com/angel/
>> Angry Bunny <<
"I've got another Angry Bunny animation",
writes Bean, "This one is called Music." Woo
we love this stop motion animation style.
http://www.bubbleboggle.co.uk/angrybunny/music.html
>> Bunny Boilers <<
"I had the idea for the site", writes Chris
Rayment, "after an unpleasant encounter with
a psycho devil-bitch at university." He's
looking for you to send him more stories
about your experiences with the ladies of the
mad.

>> Stupid party invite <<
"Here's a party invite I made for my pal Paul
so he would come over and we could get drunk
together." writes Xian, "It features Lilith Fair,
a feminist music festival from North America."
Why don't we get invites to get drunk like
this? We love the bit with the horse.

>> Retro Computer Game Pop Group <<
"I'm a musician from Finland.", writes Junttila
Tarkiainen, "I got tired of making serious rock
music. I've started to make something for fun:
music based on the bleeps and blops of oldskool
video games." Woo hoo. We like this one. It's
got a video that reminds us of Altern8. And
lots of bass.

>> Christmas Tree Love Story <<
"I made this", writes Wol, "It's a bit mushy
but it's got a wind pollination scene that's
strangely arousing.... What do you reckon?"
We're not sure. We were too busy masturbating.

: SITES IN BRIEF
Stuff we like that wasn't made by our mates.
>> 100 greatest April Fools <<
Hmm. Pranks. We thought about closing b3ta for
a day and replacing it with suicide note, but
then we realised that we couldn't actually be
arsed. Anyway this compendium of hoaxes through
the years is a fantastic read.

>> Skippy Death Game <<
Skipping is for girls. But what if the skipping
rope was made of barbed wire? That would make
it for boys. The game is a bit crap but it made
us laugh. Which is what it's all about really.

>> Photoshopping is CRIME <<
Apparently a photographer from the LA Times has
got the sack for using Photoshop. He put two war
pictures together to make a more dramatic image.
Then he got his marching orders for it.
Interesting stuff.

>> AOL Sex Chat <<
We like AOL chat things - they're a glimpse
into a shady little world. A bit like watching
the Jerry Springer show. This one's a touching
tale of boy meets girl, with an unpleasant twist.

>> Hull is shit - says Bill Drummond <<
Remember the KLF? They were top. They made a
handful of storming records, earned tonnes of
cash and then burnt it. Where are they now?
Well Bill Drummond is making road signs that
speak the truth. Good on him.

>> Meccano Post Office Tower <<
Poor old Meccanno. It's got a bit of an image
problem. The cool kids use Mindstorm Lego
and build gigantic battle robots. But hey,
Meccanno still has its fans. This bloke
has built a replica of London's Post Office
Tower. It looks wicked. Although if he could
film a giant kitten climbing up it then
we'd be much happier.

>> Dogs in Dog Houses <<
What do you get the dog who has everything? A
little replica of your house to live in, that's
what - obviously. Shame there isn't a shoebox
for homeless people's dogs. Lazy cunts.

>> Stickmen Fuck Orgy <<
We get sent this damn link every week. It
features stickmen shagging and rapping.
Look - we're linking to it now. Stop sending
