Jun 28 2010Burn, Baby, BUUUUUUUURN!: Setting An iPhone On Fire With A Giant Magnifying Glass
Setting things on fire: it's what separates man from lesser forms of life like fish and children. And what better way to celebrate humanity than setting an old iPhone ablaze with a giant magnifying glass (actually a Fresnel lens)? I can't think of any. Also, I would have huffed every last wisp of those tasty looking fumes. Then, oh I don't know, DECIMATED THE NEIGHBORHOOD'S ANT POPULATION! Oooooor set my penis on fire pretending it was a death ray (it's happened before is the thing).
Hit it for the fire in the iHole.

I think this is a LOT cooler than "look at my awesome Avatar tattoos!" type posts. Even if it is an old, worthless 1st generation iPhone, setting shit on fire with giant lenses is fucking cool.

Another day, another iphone destruction video. You know what? It's getting old.

Who cares!!! My boyfriend thinks the same with me. He- is eight years older than me, lol. We met online at an age gap dating site [A_g_e_m_i_n_g_l_e @ c.//o.//m]---a nice and free place for Younger- Women and Older Men, or Older Women and Younger Men, to interact with each other. Maybe you wanna check out or- tell your friends

If you’re a woman who seriously loves her heels or just any general person with a serious foot fetish, now you can have a pair of speakers to show off your real love in the world. These bright red shoes are sure to attract all sorts of attention, so you’d better be ready to come out of the closet with your foot or shoe loving tendencies.
