Yves "Jetman" Rossy Becomes First Person To Do A...
Seen here reaching for the sky (or ground, rather), 51-year old Yves “Jetman” Rossy successfully performed some rocket-powered aerial acrobatics last Friday, including the often tried, but rarely succeeded without crashing into the ground and dying “loopty-loop”.
In his latest endeavour the 51-year-old airline pilot was taken to an altitude of 2,400m by a hot air...
The T-Shirt is a Lie
Ben Heck, modder extraordinaire, went and created a Portal t-shirt. Hell yeah. It’s almost identical to the… eh, what was I talking about? Exactly!
Hit it for the unnecessarily long video.

IT WASN'T ME, OKAY? :(
Because I’ll never stop getting this stupid accusatory tip until I’ve made an official statement and cleared my good above average name: No, I am NOT the guy in Philly who was caught having sex with a plastic dinosaur in front of two teenage girls. That’s just sick. Now, please stop calling the cops—I’m just trying to blog over here.
Days after Spanish researchers...
No Surprise
So, unsurprisingly, Pokemon White & Black (best known for not combining to form Pokemon Grey no matter how long you leave them together alone in a bedroom with the door closed) sold over 2.7 million copies in its first two days of Japanese release. That’s a 2, a 6 and a 3 with like forty zeros afterward.
People be lovin’ on all them monsters, son! Those googly bastards are...
Polymer Porn
So I have no idea if these are actual polymers or not because after setting my lab partner on fire, I was asked with withdraw from the class. But regardless of past misfortunes, if I had to guess, I’d say yes. Damn yes. You? Well, you’d say that I was naive—and that I thought I was strong. I thought, “Hey, I can leave, I can leave” . Oh, but now I know that I was...
LEGO Weed!
Well all that I can say is that I was smoking LEGO blocks before they looked like weed.
B'AWW...
Yeaokay, Sir Terry Pratchett.
Well, I found out something new today. It turns out that one of my favourite childhood authors, Terry Pratchett, was knighted about a year ago—and in celebration he decided to make himself a sword. Oh, but not just -any- sword. A magical sword forged from meteorites. In Mordor. Suck on that one, Sauron!
With help from his friend Jake Keen — an expert on ancient metal-making...

What do you get when you combine a Zebra and a...
That wasn’t actually a joke. You get a zedonk. Yes. Half zebra, half ass, 100% honky-tonk-zedonk-a-donk. I hate to see you go, but I love to watch you leave! Woo-wee, shut my mouth, slap yo’ gradma!
A zedonk, an unusual cross between a donkey and a zebra, is attracting attention at the Chestatee Wildlife Preserve in Dahlonega after being born there about a week ago. The...

Braaainnnnnnnnsssssssssssssssssssssssss..?
Zombie jerky. Sounds delicious, don’t it? No, it actually doesn’t and I just puked through the gap in my front teeth and the mere thought of gnawing at pre-rotted flesh.
“Zombie Meat,” an exquisite new Japanese snack for the horror enthusiast, consists of bite-sized chunks of tender blue flesh that, according to the package, has been aged to deadly perfection at the...
Sorry for the week off.
Had stuff to take care of. Hopefully I’m back now. And I know everyone cares because -everyone- loves me, right?!
Anyways, the first story is about the YouTube user, Armyofholynuns. He is an aspiring motivational speaker that teaches these simple life lessons by attempting to break a board over his head.
1. Figure out what you want to do 2. Believe in yourself 3. Formulate a plan...
What if you could photoshop real life?
The world would be an awesomer place, that’s what. I might even appear handsome for once. And by handsome I obviously mean invisible and hunched in a corner of the women’s locker room. Hey — if you’re gonna dream, dream big (last night I dreamed I had sex with a mermaid and woke up in a flooding bathtub with my peener caught in the drain). Ambien’s the shit!
Say, "Adios", crying!
The Onion Bully is a metal shoehorn that you put in your mouth while cutting onions that’s supposed to prevent you from crying. It probably doesn’t work, but here’s the upside: You look cool. Really, really cool.
The power of the Onion Bully™ is tear science. When you put the Onion Bully™ in your mouth, it actually tells your body to turn off your tear ducts so you...
Thumbs up, Nintendo
This is an informational graphic about Nintendo’s recent successes of the Wii and DS. Impressive, Nintendo. But, I’ve had some recent successes of my own. That’s right folks. I brought a lady home last night. I’m dead serious. She’s still in my trunk.
Playboy Hops on the 3D Bandwagon
Unfortunately for the porno industry, Avatar has effectively rendered 2D obsolete. This means that this month’s edition of Playboy will feature a 3D centerfold! Just don’t forget to take off the glasses before leaving your bedroom or we’ll all know what you were doing, you perverted bastard!
“What would people most like to see in 3-D?” asked Playboy founder Hugh...
The Yo-Yo "Master" Strikes Back
Kenny “K-Strass” Strasser is basically a no-name Sasha Baron Cohen who travels around the midwest tricking local news stations into thinking he’s a yo-yo master so they’ll have them on their show. Then once on air he does his best to produce some lulz. I watched a couple different performances, but this is by far the funniest. You can search Youtube fif you want to see...
Fake Science Trumps the Real Thing
Fake Science is a little tumblr of old science textbook illustrations with accompanying make-believe facts. It’s pretty awesome, although still in its so there isn’t a whole lot of content yet. I think it’s worth following. Or you know, you could just completely forget about it. Not unlike everything I learned in school. Suck it trigonometry — I’ve never used you...
Make-a-Wish Foundation turns Cancer Boy into...
13-year-old Erik Martin is living with liver cancer. And last week, the local chapter of the Make-a-Wish Foundation made his dreams come true by turning him into a superhero for a day. YES, I AM CRYING. LEAVE ME ALONE.
Thursday was shaping up to be just another school day for 13-year-old Erik Martin, but then something extraordinary happened: Spider-Man called.
Spider-Man happens to be one...
'Kay, Steve...
Mr. Stephen Hawking, best know for once beating me in a battle of the brains by an incredibly narrow margin (although I dominated him in a punching rematch), has taken to explaining how humans might be able to time travel into the future. It sounds difficult. And expensive. Oh yeah, and it’s never going to happen.
Hawking says it would be possible if you could build a gigantic spacecraft,...
Scientists Create Woolly Mammoth Blood
A group of international scientists have successfully recreated the blood of a woolly mammoth. This has reignited my hope that some steamy dino loving will be in the not-too-distant future. You know, it’s amazing what scientists can do when they’re not busy perving out on robots all day long!
The process uses DNA extracted from 43,000-year-old mammoth bones and then duplicated...
Spiderman Busts Comic Thief
This is a case of life imitating art (although in this case, it is comic book art). A man, dressed as Spiderman stopped a would-be thief from stealing a $200 comic book on Free comic Book Day (oh, the irony) this last Sunday. He was aided in his crime-fighting by… two Jedi knights and The Flash! No, I’m not kidding.
Adelaide Comic Centre’s Michael Baulderstone, 45, noticed a ...
A Stag Head Shower.
This is a designer shower head. It was displayed at Milan Design week 2010. Water comes out of it’s mouth and is perfect for the outdoorsy type. And furries. But not me. I want a shower that looks like a really hot woman’s face. I also want you to put green and red food dye in it so it looks like she’s vomiting on me. WHAT?! I don’t judge you for your fetish, Mr. Clucky...
No Thanks
This is a mic stand that looks like Arnold’s hand. And yes, I want to smash it with my guitar and set it up fire, just like my idol Jimmy Hendrix would have. It was designed by artist Chris Conte for Adam Gontier, the front man of Three Days Grace. Now, I’ve got to say that I’ve never even heard of Three Days Grace, but you better believe I’m not gonna start listening. As...

Sure, why not?
You know, I love books. In fact, I’ve read like six of them. One of them twice. My bookworm tendencies aside, this is a gerbil wheel bookshelf designed by artist David Garcia. Unfortunately, the wheel it’s on a stationary axle, so you’ll probably walk yourself into a wall while reading. Or, even worse, traffic. Which reminds me—did I tell you I saw a guy reading while...
We want YOU (to pick up more women) (with your...
In a recent fake study released by Apple, women are more likely to give their number to a guy if he’s toting an iPhone. Man, and here I’ve been just sitting my balls in a wheelbarrow!
CultofMac reports that a Phones4U survey of 1,500 women found that 54% of them would be more likely to give their digits and date an iPhone owner than a non-iPhone owner and 37% said that owning an ...
What happens AFTER you save the princess...
You ever wonder what happens after you rescue princesses at the end of games? The exact same thing that would happen in real life. That’s what. Why? Because princesses are only after your coins. Just like the real wimminz. They may say that they love you, but really they just want you to buy them fancy things until they run off with a Brazilian masseuse or tell you that they’ve been...
Shut your Pie Hole!
This is a creepy robotic mouth created to help the hearing impaired learn to articulate their speech better. It’s a learning tool. It also happens to be something that I just set on fire and kicked down the stairs.
To enable the robot’s speaking abilities, engineers at Japan’s Kagawa University used an air pump, artificial vocal chords, a resonance tube, a nasal cavity, and a...
Son... I think we need to have a talk.
Wait, what? You can get suspended for that? Oh well, it’s still cool on Peggle, right?
EDIT TO POST: Because now I realize that due to image resizing it’s practically, unreadable, the original picture has been rehosted here.
Wow!
I can’t believe it. I just went and checked my follower counter for the first time in a few days and I just broke a barrier which I never thought I would even come close to seeing. The first 100 followers. Although, as you can see in the picture this post is actually outdated as I have that. Plus 43 people. It’s okay, you extra 43, you may not be as special as the first 100 (nor do I...
Sheath that lightsaber, son...
This is allegedly a Darth Vader condom from France. It looks like a photoshop job to me, but it’s awesome regardles because the message reads, “I will not be your father!”. At least, that’s supposedly what it says. I don’t speak French (I’m not gay), so for all I know it could read, “We poked a bunch of holes in the end, EL OH EL!”.
The... Arm Pillow?
The Arm Sleeper Pillow is a grossly overpriced head receptacle ($99) with a groove underneath so that you can sleep on your arm. Without cutting off blood circulation and having to get it amputated. Of course, this also means no more strangers when you wake up, so it’s kind of a trade-off. Now if they just made something similar that prevented my legs from falling asleep when I’m...
Chinese People Make me Sad
This is a gallery of Chinese superhero knockoffs. Like Spaderman. Why the manufacturers don’t just go the extra mile to use the copywritten names is beyond me, but I suspect it has something to do with honor and morals. Wait, did I say honor and morals? Because I meant bad translation.
What kind of a drunk are YOU?
This is a flowchart that will help you determine the kind of drunk that you are. Well—which one are you? Truthfully, I don’t touch any of the stuff myself so i guess that makes me a lying drunk. An awesome, well-endowed one! Did I ever tell you about the time I fought off a bunch of terrorists in a plane all by myself? And then I got a key to the country that has yet to work at a...
Could I get mine with Rims?
Rollerblades aren’t cool any more, but some people still can’t shake the feeling that they need wheels strapped to the feet. This is why inventor MICHAEEEEL JEEEEEENKINNNNNNS (I’m truly sorry, good sir, I could not resist) well, invented the Chariot Skates. What are Chariot Skates?
Costing up to $11,000 for a pair, the wheel-skate features two large carbon fibre wheels. The...
Zelda Proves that Pirate = Ninja
This is a little graphic that uses Zelda (and some satanic property of algebra) to allegedly prove that pirates = ninjas. I don’t know what to make of it. I’m still kinda reeling from having my whole world turned inside-out and upside-down. I feel like everything I know has been flushed down the shitter and clogged the damn thing and now there’s, you know, pee and poo all over...
Damn it, Darwin!
Yeaaahh… this is a video of some idiot sitting in a chair atop an airbag his friends (who obviously aren’t really his friends hahaha) are about to remotely deploy. In this case, the airbag does little to protect Captain Obvious Crashtest. As a matter of fact, it does just the opposite. Now, I know you’re all wonder, “OMG, DOES HE DIE?!” Unfortunately not. But...
Stomping Rebels with Pure Deliciousness
Well Confuzzlies, the boys down at This Is Freaking Ridiculous have done it once again! This year, to celebrate Bacon day (which should be every damned day), they have created a bacon AT-At. STOMP ME. NOW!
I needed a follow up to last year’s BA-K-47 for our 2nd annual Bacon Day. The Bacon AT-AT was actually what I wanted to build before, but didn’t have enough time, so it seemed...
The Space Station Silhoutted Against the Sun
All humor aside, this is one of the most amazing photos I’ve ever seen. The photographer wrote,
“Actually, this was on Sunday afternoon. I finally got a chance to catch a couple of shots of the Space Shuttle and ISS docked together as they passed directly between my location and the Sun, also called a solar transit. The clouds had me worried most of Sunday morning, as they...
mycameraflashesalot asked: Hello. Who are you?
Just for the record....
Just because I haven’t posted in like, two days, doesn’t mean that my Tumblr is dead. D: I just been really busy and stuffs… hope I’ll be able to get back to posting stuff for you guys soon!
Robotic Suit for Elderly... Grape Pickers?
Feeling too old to pick fruit? Well, that’s just God’s way of saying it’s time to go. But researchers at Tokyo’s University of Agriculture and Technology have developed a robotic suit to aid the elderly in their farming longevity. Hurray? NO, NOT HURRAY
The metal and plastic device features eight electric motors as well as a voice-recognition system and sensors that...
Sounds legit to me...

For Hansel and Gretel
The Rescue Balloon—An inflatable aid for adventurers who find themselves lost in the woods while searching for ancient artifacts. Ha, Indiana Jones scoffs at you!
Designer Jaeseok Han wasn’t fooling around when he created this compact kit — intended for hikers who get lost or injured in the wilderness and need to signal aerial search teams. It comes complete with a small,...

Introducing, the DRINK CLIP…
The Drink Clip Belt Clip is $5 clip. For your belt. It holds a beverage instead of a cell phone (or in my case, a laser blaster). You should wear it right next to your cell phone, though. Well, only if you want to look cool. And then, fill it with the hottest...
Look, Mom, no feet!
This is the Toe Mouse, the brainchild of Liu Yi. It was designed for people who have lost the use of their arms or for people who like to masturbate with both hands. I’m on to you.
Mega-Mosaic!
This highly impressive mosaic made by Jarosh of the Neogaf forum consists of nothing but screenshots from the game, Mega Man. Now you’ll have to forgive that I’ve posted -twice- about Mega man, but this bamf stuffed around 1500 screenshots into the thing, which encompasses the first six games of the series.
God damnit, Dr. Wily, why won’t you tie? ;_; Insufferable...
Twittering Tea-Kettle?
Now that I am fully convinced that the world is progressing in a downward, Twittering spiral, designers Ben Perman and Murat Multu came up with Tweetle, a tea-kettle that, yes, tweets. Wow, can you say impractical? Hot damn, I want a tweeting microwave. THAT would be SOMETHING.
Other than informing you and all of your teapots followers that your water has reached 100C, it records weekly stats...
Stormtrooper Tattoo in the Style of Mexican Sugar...
What better way to celebrate Day of the Dead (which for you culturally ignorant bastards isn’t today. Even I know this and apparently I’m an racist Asian homophobe) than a Stormtrooper tattoo in the style of a Mexican sugar skull? I can think of about 40, but apparently this guy’s foot couldn’t. Also, what self respecting man doesn’t shave their toe knuckle hair?...
...A Lego Amy Winehouse.
This guy’s name is Justin Ramsden. He’s 19 and is ready to make out with his sculpture of Amy Winehouse. Lookin’ good, Justin, now if she just had some coke falling out of her hair and one boobie on the loose terrorizing a group of minifigs, I’d swear it was actually her!
As for me, my sculpting career came to a tragic end after my Whitney Houston Lego sculpture lit...
Periodic Table gets new Addition to the Atomic...
Okay, boys and girls, time to get your thinking caps on! The periodic table is getting another new addition to the family, and apparently these super heavy elements that they’re creating are getting stabler and stabler as their atomic weight increases (lolwut). This gives me hope that Incessant Confuzzlement won’t fly off the handle if you call it a little pudgy. HA!
The team...
