This is a .338 Lapua Magnum rifle outfitted with a Linux-powered TrackingPoint XS1 system, an advanced computerized scope that takes all the guesswork out of shooting animals in the woods. Sport, LOL. Why not just send an unmanned drone to go kill all the deer for you? The i... / Continue →

Because it's Friday, and this is the internet, here's a video of MMA fighter Anthony Pettis roundhouse kicking some raw eggs in slow motion. You tell those eggs, Anthony! "Tell them what?" That the chicken came first, silly! Hit the jump for the video AND IMAGINE THOSE ARE... / Continue →

For people who struggle with overeating, Segway inventor Dean Kamen and a group of doctors have developed a pump that can evacuate 30% of the food in a person's stomach 20-minutes after they eat a meal so they don't digest all those extra calories. It sounds kind of gross, but... / Continue →

This is a photo of a pike that died trying to swallow a zander fish almost as big as it is. Like a middle school cafeteria lady once told me after I couldn't finish all the lasagna I'd asked for, "Your eyes must be bigger than your stomach." Oh yeah? If my eyes are really bi... / Continue →

This is the Robotic Spider Dress, a collaboration piece between designer Anouk Wipprecht (of self-coloring dress fame) and programmer Daniel Schatzmayr. It moves its legs around whenever it senses nearby movement. That's creepy. I can't say I'd recommend any of you ladies we... / Continue →

This is a small gallery of Star Wars creature taxidermied head mounts. They're all just mediocre Photoshop jobs though, they're not real. Of course, for the right amount of money I'm sure somebody would be more than happy to make them real for you. Me -- I'm talking about me... / Continue →

This is a short video of a red-hot ball of nickel being dropped into a cup of water, and the resulting noises it makes. They're funny. I especially liked the very end, it reminded me of the sound you hear whenever you teleport somewhere. Speaking of -- I can't even tell you... / Continue →

This is a short video tour of the world's shortest escalator, located in Kawasaki, Japan. The escalator has a vertical rise of only 83-centimeres (~33-inches) and should have probably been a ramp instead. This video already has 5-million views on Youtube though, so I'm not go... / Continue →

This is the Healight Patch from Carmichael Collective. It covers a car's burnt out headlight with a badass piece of pirate flair. Clever, but a cop will still pull you over. Come on officer, you have to admit the eyepatch is pretty funny! "You were driving on the sidewalk."... / Continue →

Note: If you're not into baby photography you might want to skip this one. This is a fantasy themed photoshoot by Wendi Riggens starring baby Maddie as the heroines from a bunch of different fairy tales. If I had a daughter I'd be temped to do something similar, except with v... / Continue →

I mean, it would have been cool as a kid, but I'm still going to buy one and sleep in it. This is the $90 TARDIS play tent available from ThinkGeek. The tent stands just short of six-feet tall and the inside walls are even printed to look like the interior of the TARDIS. I'm... / Continue →

Metal Gear Not So Solid. This is Pimpri-Chinchwad native and number one stunna Datta Phuge modeling the $230,000 22-karat gold shirt he had made to help attract women. It weighs in at around seven pounds but feels much, much heavier on my heart. Datta also sports several add... / Continue →

This is a $70 rhinestone covered Pokeball bra made by Etsy seller Neon Wonderland. I also believe she's the model. Of course I also believe there's an elf that lives under my bed and eats my underwear at night to fuel his magic, so don't take my word for it. Thanks to Juli... / Continue →
