I once stayed in a very strange hostel in Santiago (Chile). Half the hostel was rented out by the hour to hookers. Anyway, this American guy was quite an interesting sort who claimed to have been abducted by aliens twice (once they fixed his teeth, and the second time they fixed his car windscreen). Every night he brought a different girl back to his room... which wouldn't have been so strange apart from I went in there one day and it was FULL of bottles of various sizes all full of piss. There must have been a year's worth of piss in there!

weird collections, by teatwosugars on May 15, 2008 15:48:11 GMT 1, When I was about 9 I went to the football and saw one of those huge inflatable bananas. That's it, I thought, I'm collecting novelty inflatables! By the time I was about 12 I had loads- bananas, skeletons, an aeroplane, a frog, a bat, a parrot, even a 6ft dinosaur. Looking back now that's fuckin weird!
Trouble is, my mum was so pissed off at how much dust they collected that I was ordered to deflate most of them and store them in my wardrobe. It just wasn't the same. I think most of them were binned throughout my teenage years (apart from the dinosaur which was taken to live in our student digs at University) ;D
And before anyone asks, no I didn't have the obvious inflatable that is probably going through some people's minds!

I suppose I remember drinking OXO when I was a kid when we used to have it after a swim. OXO is just such a strong image/typography and I've always been interested in typefaces and typography.

"We believe this place had particular religious/ceremonial significance to the people of the time who left offerings of beef to their god "oxo" in these chalices". Each person would also pull a bogy from their nose and add it to the ever growing "holy bogie ball" - scholars have been trying to establish the significance of the bogie ball and it's connection to the god oxo since it's initial discovery but 70 years later the debate still rages..."
