There is no place at the Austrian airport for people that wanted to go to Australia. It was an ad at the airport by the Austrian communication's company Commend.

Dropbox? Nah. Create a video game that allows you to save files you give to it and use the Stream cloud to save them. Side note, why does the SpongeBob game allow you to save upto 93GB?

Someone should hire me to make a The Dark Knight Rises video game. It would be a Bennett Foddy style game of where Batman is trying to get out of the prison.

I can't believe a newspaper did this pun. To explain it: - Probably in Icelandic is Líklega. - There's a common phrase that is used to mean "probably": "ef að líkum lætur" (in all probability) Also: Lík means corpse. An article about a morgue closing used that phrase as the title.

I'm often asked where the Icelandic volcano is and if it's near Reykjavík. Red marks near Grindavík are lava flows (past and present) Airport is west of where it says Njarðvík It's about a 30 minute drive from the airport to Reykjavík Blue Lagoon is just south of the J in Reykjanes, near Grindavík

Do you remember this interview from Borat 2 and the subsequent "tucking in shirt" scene. That same actress (Maria Bakalova) will play Ivana Trump in the upcoming Trump biopic (The Apprentice)
