Nov 12 2009 I'd Eat Them Both!: Pac-Man Can Art
Ever wonder what Pac-Man eating a ghost would look like constructed out of a shitload of tuna cans? Well now you do. The internet: it's magic, folks. These shots were taken at Canstruction, an annual food-and-drink can stacking event that I can't even believe exists. If there's a damn Canstruction you can bet your bottom diaper there should be a Geekologie-con. Somebody get on that. Somebody, anybody. Not me. And bring snacks booze. Wait, snacks too. Oh, AND YOU BETTER HAVE GOOD ORGANIZATIONAL SKILLS. Kidding, anybody will do.
Hit the jump for two more.

Jul 27 2009 Homemade: Automatic Popcorn Kernel Sorter
Stupid Inventor Zachary is at it again, this time with a tool that automatically sorts unpopped popcorn kernels out of your bowl so you can repop them. Just don't eat them or you'll end up growing maize in your stomach! And, as a guy who once tried to grow wine grapes in his gut, trust me, you don't want to. Also, Zachary claims the vibrating motor he used came from an old massage pillow, but it looks suspiciously familiar. Read: I'm not eating out of that bowl.
Episode 14: The Popcorn Sorter [instructables]
Thanks Zachary, now get cracking on something that sorts broken potato chips out of the bag. THE GW DOES NOT DO PARTIAL CHIPS.
Jul 17 2009 Great Gifts On A Budget: Ghetto Baskets
Ghetto Baskets are gift baskets packed chock-full of stuff you can buy at your local convenience store. The standard Ghetto Basket costs $39, and the Ghetto Fabulous basket $46 (comes with a bow).
You never know exactly what each Ghetto Basket will include. It all depends on our shaky contacts and what falls off of trucks around the neighborhood. But it might have:
Hot Sauce, Pregnancy Test, Grape Drink, Batteries, Beef Jerky, Potted Meay, Pork Rinds, Noodles in a Cup, After Shave, Plastic Commemorative Plate, Religious Candle, Porcelain Figurine, Kung-Fu DVD, Cassette or VHS Tape, Doo Rag, Vapor Rub, Energy Drank, Soap, Outdated Calendar
Each basket comes lovingly packed in an aluminum baking pan and is sure to do disappoint its recipient. Alternatively, assemble your own basket for $14 and just tell the giftee you paid $40 at a novelty website. Now that's ghetto!
Thanks samual and chris, your pregnancy tests are in the mail. And no, I didn't already use them (of course I did).

Mar 2 2009 Woman Finds Old Nokia In Bag Of Chips
Somebody's mother in Wisconsin found an old Nokia 6810 in a bag of freshly opened Clancy's Ripples. Wow, people actually still rock those old brick phones? Yes, people who work in potato chip factories do.
The phone, which didn't work, was slathered with "greasy potato-chip film" and looked like it once lived on a belt clip. "You kind of don't want chips for a while" after something like that, she said. Schweiger isn't sure what she'll do next but hopes the FDA can track down the owner of the phone.
She's glad she found the phone and not a child who might have put it in his or her mouth, she said. She's also glad the phone wasn't in a product she would have heated, she said. Schweiger doesn't know when she'll have an appetite for potato chips again, but when she does, she'll do things a little differently."I will never, ever eat chips out of a bag again," she said. "They will be dumped in the bowl."
Wow, could you be any less grateful? You opened a bag of chips, found a prize, and then complained about it. Congratulations, you just won the lottery! "I dunno, I'm starting to wish I'd picked different numbers...." Seriously though, are you gonna eat those?
This Bag Of Clancy's Ripple Potato Chips Needs More Nokia Phones [consumerist]
Thanks to ray and twellve, who each found a pager in a bag of steamed vegetables and were happy about it.
Nov 12 2008 Sexy Animal Crackers Fetch $7.25 On eBay
A bull and donkey were caught mid-coitus in a bowl of animal crackers by some guy's wife. And, like a Virgin Mary pork rind, it ended up on eBay.
As you can see from the pictures, What we have here is a bull making sweet, sweet love to a donkey. (too bad it isn't an elephant---it would make a great political piece!) My wife pulled this out of a bowl of animal crackers a few weeks ago. I have been storing it in an air-tight bag since! The cracker was baked like this!!! No foul play!
No foul play my ass! That poor donkey. I think they're stuck together. Seriously though, who knew crackers could be so sexy? Just imagine cookies! *rolling out dough* Anybody have dinosaur cookie cutters?
