University of Nottingham professor Harminder Dua recently discovered a new human body part and named it after himself because that's what you get to do when you discover things. Now I know what you're all hoping for, and sadly, no, it's...Show More Summary
This is the Songbird built in LEGO by Flickr user Imagine Rigney. It's magnificent. And, even as much as Elizabeth was always complaining about him, sometimes I wish I had a friend like Songbird. You know, someone strong to keep me company and protect me from the outside world. Show More Summary
This is a video from China of some employee of the month haphazardly tossing boxes at an airplane loading conveyer belt and missing half of them. I don't really understand why he does such a piss poor job, because eventually he has to get down and pick up all the boxes he missed. Show More Summary
This is a homemade money shredding alarm clock (previously: a conceptual one). After the alarm goes off you have ten seconds to disable it before the thing starts eating your money. I mean, provided you were actually foolish enough to put money in it in the first place. Show More Summary
You know what the main problem with guinea pigs is? They're vulnerable in battle. Thankfully, eBay seller mightys0x in selling this custom made guinea pig sized chain mail. 100% of the proceeds from the sale go to Metropolitan Guinea...Show More Summary
This is an ad for a smart phone protective screen cover or something but that's not what's important. What's important is that they mounted a handgun to an octocopter and were firing it at things. I tried tipping off the local authorities to the threat but they told me to stop calling. Show More Summary
Ever wanted to watch a diver knock over a stack of rocks with an air bubble ring? Well you are IN LUCK, because that's exactly what this is. Unfortunately, when reached for comment Ariel was devastated to find out someone knocked over her art installation. Now might not be the best time to tell her we ate Flounder and Sebastian too.
Hit the jump for the video.
After receiving enough votes on their Cuuso website, LEGO has announced the production of a Mars Rover Curiosity playset. And I will buy it. The set was designed by NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory's mechanical engineer Stephen Pakbaz, so obviously it's legit. Show More Summary
This is a video of a Chladni plate experiment in which sand resonates to different frequencies to reveal a particular frequency's SECRET PATTERN. And we all love secret patterns here, right? Think of it as a special door knock you have to know to get into a club, but like, a way better example than that. Show More Summary
Okay so I'm a little late to the party on this one and it looks the keg is kicked and all the pretty girls have left, but in case you haven't seen it, this is a video of a pair of dudes in a van taking pictures of people and Photoshopping them into an ad at a bus stop while the people are sitting there waiting.

Ever wanted to see a cockatiel whistling the theme to Hayao Miyazaki's animated classic 'My Neighbor Totoro' with a little musical accompaniment by its caretaker? Well you're in luck. Man, if I had that bird I would have him singing that song all day long, and my life would be better because of it. Show More Summary
This is a video of a guy cosplaying as the QWOP runner (links to game) at Anime North 2013. I'm pretty sure it's the same guy who cosplayed as the QWOP runner at Anime North 2012, but with AN IMPROVED ROUTINE. That's serious commitment to the character. Show More Summary
Note: Alphabet does contain some spoilers if you've never read the books or seen the movies or ever left the cave you've lived in for the last 15 years.
This is the alphabet of Harry Potter characters created by superfan Kayla Pyke. Not all of them though, only six. Show More Summary
This is a video of Jake explaining what would happen if Superman punched you in real life. SURPRISE: basically you'd be torn apart at the molecular level in a nuclear explosion. Unless he made the mistake of punching me, in which case he'd break every bone in his hand. Show More Summary
Remember that video from PistolShrimps of Batman replacing characters in other famous movie scenes? Well this is part two. Unfortunately, like so many sequels, it isn't as good as the first one. It's still worth a watch though, especially since it's Friday afternoon and nobody is doing any work anyways. Show More Summary
FULL DISCLOSURE: I've never actually seen 'How to Train Your Dragon' because any wizard worth his pointy moon and stars hat already knows how to.
Now before you start getting all bent out of shape about how anybody could do this to their dog, that's not a dog, it's a person. Show More Summary
This is the LEGO Normandy SR2 built by Mass Effect fan Ben Caulkins over the last seven months. I, for one, would be honored to serve aboard that ship. Of course, I'd be honored to serve aboard any ship at this point because the Intergalactic...Show More Summary
This is a video of professional rock climber Cedar Wright performing a 600-foot rope drop/swing in Ukraine. It's crazy how extreme people have to go these days to get a rush. I still get all sweaty and excited using a crosswalk that's...Show More Summary
March 13, 2013?! That vagina bread is BAD.
Note: Possibly NSFW unbagged shots HERE and HERE.
This is Japanese 'cherry blossom bread'. It's endorsed by virtual pop star Hatsune Miku and looks like a ring of lady privates. Or at least that's what I was told, that's not my area of expertise. Show More Summary
This is the chart comparing the next generation Microsoft and Sony gaming consoles compiled by DeviantARTist yamamoto114. Which one are you gonna get? I'm gonna get one of each and then film myself smashing them on release day in front of all the people who camped out. Show More Summary
