Thanks to Carrie, who doesn't fantasize about relationships with vampires OR cut herself.
Nov 28 2009 Roomba Saves Kids From Poisonous Snake
Apparently a Roomba operating in Israel recently sucked up a poisonous Vipera palaestinae, preventing it from killing a family's two children and pets. Too bad that poor snake WASN'T GONNA DO ANYTHING.
One evening last week Efi turned the robot on and left the house. When she returned she tried to turn it back on though it kept beeping and getting stuck. When she opened the machine she discovered that the machine prevented the small viper from occupying the home and hurting her young children. "He was probably looking for a place to hide in one of the rooms because of the upcoming winter." Eli explains.
Exactly. That poor lil guy was just looking for a place to stay warm for the winter when this robot came and TOOK ITS LIFE, completely upsetting a delicate ecosystem. Which, true story, IS ALL PART OF THE ROBOTIC MASTER PLAN. Global warming? Robots.
Hit the jump for one more of the poor little bastard all wrapped up and dead in the robot's killer spinning parts.
Nov 28 2009 TODAY ONLY: Star Wars 'Hothmas' T-Shirts
From Teefury comes 'Hothmas' a seasonal t-shirt feauring an AT-AT Rudolph getting wrapped up by a T-47 airspeeder. Teefury, like shirt.woot, features a different shirt every day. Except, unlike shirt.woot, Teefury's designs are gone forever after 24 hours with no chance of revival on the site (shirt.woot's 'Zombie Vampire Robots from Space' design featured two weeks now available again HERE for $15). $9 plus $2 shipping takes the shirt until midnight eastern, when I'll turn into a pumpkin awesome dragon.

Nov 28 2009 Pummel It With Snowballs!: LEGO Snowman
This is a LEGO snowman. As in, a snowman that looks like a giant LEGO minifig. And, even if his head is a little lopsided, I've still got to hand it to the builders: every snowman I've ever built turned into a giant penis. Then the cops would come joke around with it before kicking it over while I took pictures from my snow-fort. I bet your wives would like to see these!

Nov 27 2009 I'd Drink A Case: New Scottish Beer Takes Cake For Highest Alcohol Content at 32%
Well folks, there's a new drunkest beer in town. And that beer is Tactical Nuclear Penguin by BrewDog Brewery in Scottland -- at 32% alcohol by volume content. I WANT IT INSIDE ME! Too bad it's gonna cost $49.50 a bottle. I'm sticking to isopropyl!
A warning on the label states: "This is an extremely strong beer; it should be enjoyed in small servings and with an air of aristocratic nonchalance. In exactly the same manner that you would enjoy a fine whisky, a Frank Zappa album or a visit from a friendly yet anxious ghost."
However Jack Law, of Alcohol Focus Scotland, described it was a "cynical marketing ploy" and said: "We want to know why a brewer would produce a beer almost as strong as whisky."
I don't know what kind of idiot test you have to pass to join Alcohol Focus Scotland, but for the sake of Jack Law, the answer is, "to get people drunk". Jesus, it's not rocket surgery.

Nov 27 2009 Tis NEVER The Season For Synchronized Robots Dancing To Christmas Music
Ever wanted to see a bunch of robots synchronized to dance to Christmas music? Yeah, me neither. NEVER. Not even at my lowest. But I had to watch it and now you do too. You can barely hear the music over their little mechanical joints creaking, but it's still chock full of holiday apocalyptic spirit. And speaking of spirits: you think this is the ghost of Christmas future? You f***ed up Scrooge, you f***ed up.

Thanks to Kim, Brian, Darken and cougrrr, who have never, EVER danced with a robot in the pail moonlight.
Nov 27 2009 For Twihards: Team Jacob Laptop Decals
I don't really understand the Team Edward/Team Jacob rivalry but from what I've gathered it has something to do with if you'd rather have sex with a vampire or werewolf. Me? I've always been a gargoyle kind of guy. These laptop decals are available from Etsy seller vinylfruit in a plethora of colors for $10. Now I'm sure several of you are gonna complain about having to see Twilight shit on here, but you know what? You continued watching 2 Girls 1 Cup AFTER KNOWING WHAT WAS HAPPENING. Just sayin'.

Nov 27 2009 Burj Dubai Loves Getting Struck By Lightning
Apparently the Burj Dubai (the world's tallest building) can't stop getting hit by lightning. Well what do you expect being a half a mile tall? That's like a 7-foot woman walking around and people not yelling, "that's a huge bitch!" Also, this may or may not be Allah's way of saying, "Dubai -- this shit's getting out of hand" (It 100% is).
Hit the jump for two more shots and a video of a lightning strike in action.

Nov 27 2009 I Don't Remember That: Not-Right Nativities
This is a little gallery of nativity scenes with characters and situations I don't remember reading in the bible. But maybe that's because I read the King James version and IT WAS EDITED. You know that song, 'We Three Kings'? It was originally written, 'We Three Kings and Our Dinosaurs. All the images are available as 5x7 photographic prints and make perfect Christmas cards. And you know what else do? Valentines with all the words crossed out. THESE ARE HARD TIMES.
