Commented on Movie posters for minimalists
Everyone should definitely check out film the blanks. The guy who runs that site has been doing something very similar to this with movie posters since like March of last year. He has well over a hundred movie posters....

Commented on Mid-Afternoon Kitty Break
This made me chuckle, but also miss my kitties. The video left out the part where my cat knocks everything sitting on my nightstand to the floor, then moves to my desk and proceeds to do the same thing there....

Commented on How to Capture a Giant Squid
While ScissorFighter puts it rather rudely, i kinda have to agree with his main point. Then again, if bloggers can't self promote on their blogs where the hell are they supposed to do it? That being said, I think Maggie...

Commented on Michael Kontopoulos' sculptures that almost tip themselves over
This is so amazing. All art (that i am aware of) plays off of some sort of emotion. Love, joy, and sorrow seem to be the most common emotions expressed by and reflected in mainstream art. I find this so...

Commented on Unicorn Chaser
@Brooklyntwang Unicorns are like vampires in that they do not have reflections or appear in photographs, thus its impossible to get "real" photos of them. Obviously this has lead to some confusion as to whether they actually exist or not....

Commented on It's Scutigera Coleoptrata Season!
Oh my god, why?! This is going to haunt me for days. I am going to be feeling phantom bugs crawling on me and flinch every time a piece of fuzz on the floor catches my eye....

Commented on What you should be afraid of instead of terrorists
I don't live in fear of terrorists, and I think to do so is stupid. But this whole "you are statistically more likely to die from _____ than terrorism" has been done by everyone and their dog. It really isn't...

Commented on Man dances in public, videotapes self for 366 days straight "to do something new"
This made me smile more than the nom nom nom song. I would like to meet this guy, and maybe he could teach me some of his moves....

Commented on Nom Nom Nom: The Bunny Song.
Ok, why are people putting eyeliner on rabbits, cause that bunny's eyes are unreal....

Commented on The Big Takeover: A Must-Read from Rolling Stone's Matt Taibbi
First off, that was quite a (long) read. That said, I do feel I am better off having read it. This little snippet gave me an idea: "These people [Wall Street Fat Cats] need their trips to Baja, their spa...

Commented on Komodo dragons kill man
@Antinous No, the coolest thing about komodo dragons is that females can reproduce without a mate, also known as parthenogenesis. In every other species that has this ability (of which there are few) only females can be produced. Komodo dragons,...

Commented on Anti-capitalists Attack Banker's Home and Mercedes: "This is Just the Beginning."
Sounds an awful lot like The Edukators (or Die fetten Jahre sind vorbei for you germanophones), except slightly less amusing....

Commented on Video: Fast reflex
Not to be overly critical of what gets posted here (I absolutely love the site), but isn't this video really old?...

Commented on Page about the Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab (1950-1951)
I think i will have to report this to the proper British authorities. Because, you know, don't rely on others. If you suspect it, report it....

Commented on Hi-rez Tetris after two weeks
I did this one awhile back. I used the space bar to speed up the process a bit, but otherwise completely random....

Commented on Haunting photo-essay on rotting buildings in Detroit
You all should definitely check out the pictures of flickr user Sweet Juniper I have been admiring his work for awhile now. Many of his pictures focus on the urban decay of Detroit, just like the photo above. I am...

Commented on UPSO's recording of a broken radio station
That is so crazy. It seems to provide a little insight into how the brain processes sounds, for me anyways. I started out hearing the words that i had read ("and find a production"), but it changed into different words...

Commented on NBC Stars Whimper About Jon Stewart's Skewering of CNBC
Woooooah, hold the fucking phones. Jon Stewart is a comedian?! I mean, to anyone who has ever watched Stewart's show it's quite obvious, but i guess it's news to these guys. Scarborough, and to a lesser extent Crammer, seem utterly...

Commented on Hitler finds out about new Watchmen ending (yet another DOWNFALL remix - SPOILER ALERT)
I am going to piss off every other Watchmen fan here by saying this, but i don't think the loss of the squid is that important. The whole idea of the squid was to have some mysterious force cause enormous...

Commented on Pink dolphin
#11 and 12 beat me to it. I seem to remember when my aunt went on a vacation to Peru, she sent back pictures of pink dolphins in the Amazon river. Although, this little dolphin definitely seems to be a...

Commented on Amazon supplier loses warehouse lease, invites the public to loot its books
At the risk of incurring the wrath of Mr. Doctorow, i was a bit confused by the update until i read the original article. I was left wondering why the fact that the warehouse is used would effect the cost...

Commented on Weird-looking dust storm in Australia
So i guess they never made it out? Makes me wonder how the video survived. But on top of that, they compound the dangers of driving into a dust storm by driving on the wrong side of the road....

Commented on Massive rat in China
@TJ S hahaha, you make me feel better about knowing these things exist. I'll just try to pretend this was a benevolent sensei rat, and not one that would try to eat my face. Also, for those who doubt the...
