    DimPrawns Top Tips

    DON'T waste money on expensive ipods. Simply think of your favourite
    tune and hum it. If you want to "switch tracks", simply think of
    another song you like and hum that instead.

    CINEMA goers. Please have consideration for pirate DVD viewers by
    having a pi$$ before the film starts.

    RAPPERS. Avoid having to say 'know what I'm sayin' all the time by
    actually speaking clearly in the first place.

    DON'T waste money on expensive paper shredders to avoid having your
    identity stolen. Simply place a few dog turds in the bin bags along
    with your old bank statements.

    WORRIED that your teeth will be stained after a heavy night drinking
    red wine? Simply drink a bottle of white wine before going to bed to
    remove the stains

    SOLDIERS Invest in a digital camera to avoid all that court martial
    tomfoolery after a trip to Trueprint.

    MURDERERS Need to dispose of a body? Simply parcel it up and post it to
    yourself via DHL. You will never see it again.

    BURGLARS. When fleeing from the police, run with your right arm
    sticking out at 90?, wrapped in a baby mattress in case they set one of
    their dogs on you.

    EMPLOYERS Avoid hiring unlucky people by immediately tossing half the
    CVs into the bin.

    MEN When listening to your favourite CD, simply turn up the sound to
    the volume you desire; then turn it down three notches. This will save
    your wife from having to do it.

    GAMBLERS. For a new gambling opportunity, try sending £50 to yourself
    by Royal Mail.

    BANGING two pistachio nutshells together gives the impression that a
    very small horse is approaching.

    BLIND PEOPLE Give yourself at least a chance of seeing something by not
    wearing heavy dark glasses all the time.

    ALCOHOL makes an ideal substitute for happiness.

    DRIVERS. If a car breaks down or stalls in front of you, beep your horn
    and wave your arms frantically. This should help the car start and send
    them on their way.

    PREVENT burglars stealing everything in the house by simply moving
    everything in the house into your bedroom when you go to bed. In the
    morning, simply move it all back again.

    CAR thieves Don't be discouraged when nothing is on view. All the
    valuables may be hidden in the glove box or under a seat.

    DEPRESSED people Instead of attempting suicide as a 'cry for help',
    simply shout 'Help!' thus saving money on paracetamol, etc.

    MOTORISTS Avoid getting prosecuted for using your phone whilst driving.
    Simply pop your mobile inside a large shell and the police will think
    you are listening to the sea.

    JEREMY Beadle When selling DVDs on your TV advert, hold the disks in
    your bigger hand so that they do not appear to be the size of laser
    disks.

    SHOES last twice as long if only worn every other day.

    SINGLE men Convince people that you have a girlfriend by standing
    outside Etam with several bags of shopping, looking at your watch and
    occasionally glancing inside.

    BOIL an egg to perfection without costly egg timers by popping the egg
    into boiling water and driving away from your home at exactly 60 mph.
    After 3 miles, phone your wife and tell her to take the egg out the
    pan.

    ALCOHOLICS don't worry where the next drink is coming from. Go to the
    pub, where a large selection is available at retail prices.

    McDONALD'S Make your brown carrier bags green in colour so they blend
    in with the countryside after they've been thrown out of car windows.

    EMPLOYEES - Have all your tulips at work. Not only will you save money
    on toilet paper, but you'll also be getting paid for it.

    LADIES - An empty aluminum cigar tube filled with angry wasps makes an
    inexpensive vibrator. (One for Xog me thinks. )

    SCROOGES - Save money at Christmas by returning last year's cards to
    the sender, with the simple inscription "Same to you".

    GENTLEMAN - Gauge the outside temperature using a 'plumometer'. Open
    your flies and dangling your plums in front of an open letterbox. If
    they shrink it is cold outside, if they go baggy it is warm, and if
    they remain the same size it is the same temperature outside as it is
    in the house.

    PLUMBERS - Farts stored in a washing up liquid bottle can be ignited
    and used as an underwater welding torch for those tricky but essential
    emergency plug chain repairs.

    MICRA DRIVERS - Attach a lighted sparkler to the roof of your car
    before starting a long journey. You drive the things like sodding
    dodgem cars anyway, so it may as well look like one.

    ADVENTUROUS LOVERS - Sprinkle talcum powder on each other's rings, then
    lie on the floor and fart up in the air to send each other sexy
    'bum-smoke signals' across the bedroom.

    ANGLERS - Attach a helium balloon to your line and bait the hook with
    an acorn. Then sit under a tree and 'fish' for squirrels. An upturned
    laundry basket would make an ideal keep net, but don't forget to throw
    the squirrels back into the tree at the end of the day

    SINGLE men. Get a glimpse of married life by taping Woman's Hour on
    Radio 4, then playing it back at a higher volume than the TV whilst
    trying to watch something on Discovery Wings.

    ENJOY indoor snorkling by filling a bath with water, then removing the
    plug quickly putting your mouth over it and breathing through the
    overflow.

    TIGHT- arsed blokes. At this time of year, only date girls called
    Natalie, Carol, Holly or Eve. Chances are their birthday is around
    Christmas and you won't have to shell out for a present until then, by
    which time they will probably have packed you in.

    CONSTIPATED driving instructors. Alleviate your discomfort by
    disconnecting the dual controls on the car when instructing a new
    pupil. If a stronger laxative effect is required, do the same thing but
    with a female learner.

    Pensioners - Worried about rising fuel costs ?
    Offer to take in all the strays at the local animal shelter, so they can sleep on top of your bed at night, thus providing extra insulation and a near limitless source of free food.

    Novice Electricians - Worried about electrical hazards ?
    Employ a young apprentice to do all the risky work for you.

    Daleks - Concerned about rust ?
    Tough.

    Globalisation - Worried about job insecurity ?
    Learn Chinese and offer to work for your boss for a bowl of rice a day.

    Bacteria - Worried about Germ Control in hospitals ?
    Nah, of course you're not.
    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

    C.S. Lewis

          Yep - but I'll keep on buying it as I have quite a collection and it would be a shame to stop now.

          You'll notice my avitar is the timeless character Buster Gonad (and his unpheasably large testicles).

          The profanisaurus is good though !
