  • Commented on Video: giant carnivorous plants
    I thoroughly enjoyed the sound effects along with the time-lapse. Or perhaps the plants actually do growl when they open?...
  • Commented on Sorry I'm Late: stop-motion film
    I feel the same as #5. I wasn't too impressed while watching the actual video because I assumed that it was just a composite of photo cut-outs, animation, and actual video. But the credits proved the true mastery of this...
  • Commented on Accident-Explanatory Slings
    I did this with an injury once. It was great. People would come up to me and say: "What happ- oh."...
  • Commented on Thematically composited photos of New Yorkers over time but not space
    This is how rumors get started....
  • Commented on Magnetic Movie (2007)
    a great movie, but the ending was a bit anticlimactic. I kept on hoping that the magnetic threads would ensnare passers by, control them to do their bidding, and ultimately take over the world....
  • Commented on World's tiniest frogs
    I caught lots of tiny frogs as a child. And something about this photo just doesn't look right. The frog should have its feet completely attached to the finger, instead of just the tip of a toe (does it have...
  • Commented on Wine-cellar encapsulated in a staircase
    I'm extremely clumsy, so every time I see a staircase (especially spiral ones) I imagine how bad a fall down them would be. This one seems pretty disastrous....
  • Commented on Seven-bladed jaw harp
    The background music from Labyrinth would sound amazing on this thing....

    Or, if you prefer a humorous, more entertaining version of this book, just read some works by Patrick F. McManus....
  • Commented on Tokyo broom store has not had a customer since 1972 (Update: HOAX)
    I'm surprised no one has made a reference to Harry Potter, or raised the possibility that the store is somehow connected to the wizarding world....
  • Commented on Video: 'Creepy gnome' back on prowl
    You know, the more footage I see, the more I believe it’s just a monkey with a hat. The real mystery is: where did he get the hat from?...
  • Commented on Blog of funny newspaper clippings
    Reminds me of something I'd read in BYU's weekly Police Beat....
  • Commented on Sneak preview of the Martin Jetpack
    Oh, the wonders of flying eight inches off the ground. Look out soggy spots in the lawn, because you've got NOTHING on me now!...
  • Commented on Ducklings in a Bathtub
    As kids, we used to do this with our ducklings. It was always loads of adorable fun. But our "Duckling Races" in the living room were even cuter. Our Mom seemed to be a bit less enthusiastic about the activities,...
  • Commented on Ten Perfectly Pure Gadgets
    I totally agree with the article about the glue trap. I used one, once. I was trying to be humane because it was just a lost little shew. It ended up being a gruesome and horrifying experience....
  • Commented on Bushnell's Bigfoot contest
    Whatever it is, it obviously takes good care of its fur. Looks soft and well kept....
