A Viz Top Tip posted with the hope that people who see it will subscribe to the magazine (or at least go out and buy a copy off the huge pile of unsold copies in the supermarket, or whatever they're calling WH Smiths this week): Stop a 'Knock Knock' joke dead in its tracks by answering "come in" instead of "who's there?" Or just stand very still and pretend to be out. Pete Redfern, Canterbury

An ovoid robot with banded arms and legs, wearing a winged helmet and standing in a wide-legged stance with its fists clenched, roaring in exultation as a lightning bolt strikes it, surrounding it with crackling energy. The Small Robots Remastered logo in the bottom right is also wreathed in lightning.

two men are standing next to each other in a kitchen holding trays . Alt: Kramer pushes in to Jerry Seinfeld’s apartment carrying a risk board, clears a table with his foot and places the board on the table with care and aplomb

Anyone else know where Kamchatka is due to years of playing Risk….

All I'm saying is that if you all think I'm going to let this drop and won't be picketing the British Museum handing out flyers, defacing exhibition posters and interrupting public lectures with a loudhailer you have very much underestimated me.

Here I stand. I can do no other.

Thing about suicide is that when it happens. You know what happened. But people keep quiet about the person who died. Until some time later when it is revealed.

Suicide stops people talking...then it stops people talking...and then it stops people talking...and then just carries on.
