Incredible Photo: Praying Mantis Captures a Bird

mantis-catches-bird

I’m pretty sure it’s not ’shopped. What an incredible shot!

The photo shows a praying mantis devouring a humming bird. Don’t know how this happened or the circumstances around the photo, but all I can say is… wow.

Piano Graphics Tablecloth: The More You Eat, The More You Toot

piano-table-cloth_ffdxd_6648

No need to chow down on beans to add a taste of musical culture to your dinner table. The Piano Graphics Tablecloth includes a border lined with the standard design of piano keys. Jam out to Miles Davis as you chow down on your mom’s meatloaf (which is way too dry by the way).

Tell her to add some ketchup or some shit. The dog won’t even touch that crap.

Taco Holders: Let Me Put My Beef In Your Taco

taco

Finally! A gadget I can actually get behind. One thing that really gets me, a real pet peeve, is when I’m eating a taco and all the tasty shit inside flies out of the shell everytime I place it on my plate. Tacos have an abnormally awkward center of balance, so there is almost no way to not have shit falling everywhere.

These Taco Holders are simply genius, just for the fact that you don’t even have to place your taco on its side when you’re not holding onto it for dear life. The beef is staying right in the taco where it belongs. Now if I only remembered to tuck a napkin into my shirt. Luckily, I’m a lot better than I was, but most of my older shirts have some sort of taco stain. You can get six of your own taco plates for $7.95. Not sure how many pesos that is.

Tic Tac Toast Stamper Adds Flavor To An Otherwise Flavorless Breakfast

Whoever said sliced bread was, at one point, the greatest invention obviously has never had my bombastic matzoh brie. Toast can be very boring in the morning, especially if you’re doing little more than spreading marmalade on it. Sure, toasting images on to bread is fun, but not nearly as fun as a friendly game of Tic-Tac-Toe.

The Tic Tac Toast stamper promises to liven up your breakfast by easily imprinting a Tic-Tac-Toe board on your daily sliced bread. For $5 you can mark the X’s with jam and the O’s with cream cheese or butter, and you’re well on your way to a tie in Tic-Tac-Toe. Seriously, dude, keep your hands off of my toast.

TiVo Delivers Pizza While You Get Fatter and Wiser

Ordering pizza from the comfort of your couch while watching your favorite television shows on DVR is now a realization. That is, if you’ve got a TiVo. Now that Netflix has bailed TiVo out, TiVo is getting smart by offering its customers a crucial feature that’ll prevent them from leaving their seat: pizza.

A new Domino’s widget is available for US TiVo subscribers that allows you to order pizza right from your television. Sure it’s ridiculously awesome, yet absurd, but while it might not be as lazy as ordering Pizza Hut while playing Everquest II, it certainly will make shows like The Shield more enjoyable, if that’s even possible.

Crocheted Foot Long Has The Works

Seeing this crocheted sandwich makes me hungry for a hoagie. Etsy seller Candypop Creations is crazy for crocheting and it shows with this foot long sandwich I’m just dying to sink my teeth in to. All I’d get is a mouthful of yarn, but with a vivid imagination that yarn could taste like my favorite sandwich from DiVellos Deli. What the hell is that black thing with the multi-colored dots? It looks like a burn Keebler M&M cookie.

Robotic Cucumber Hand Goes Great With Ranch Dressing

Haven’t you always wished that Mrs. Butterworth would come to life, just so you could catch her and suck the syrupy blood from her veins? That’s almost the reasoning behind MAYA working with two edible forms of robotics: the NanoKrispies, a mobile human-shaped Rice Krispie treat and the more recent work; a poseable hand made from cucumbers.

So far, what we’ve seen is very impressing. For me, the idea that robots could be eaten was, before today, unfathomable. Now, thanks to MAYA, I have this sudden urge to bite into any and all robots. Doughnuts just don’t do it for me anymore.

Toaster Bags For The Jared In You

Toasted bread is the way to go but sometimes I’m in the mood to toast an entire sandwich. Pork roll, egg and cheese on sliced Rick Astley bread can get a little sloppy when you try to cram it into a toaster. I’m not talking about those awkward toasters either, I mean your basic, run of the mill toaster.

That’s exactly why the toaster bags were invented, it gives you the ability to toast your sandwiches like Subway so you can be just as much of a lard-ass as Jared was before he started actually working out. It’s called the Toastabag and for just $18.95 you get two reusable bags that’ll toast anything you shove in them. Or you could try aluminum foil. I’ve done it and it (sorta) works.

Spontaneous Picnic Dress Is Good Eatin’ Wherever You’re Sittin’

Grab your baskets, cooler, and your favorite lady, and take a stroll out to the park because picnic planning just got a lot easier. The Spontaneous Picnic Dress doubles as a faux-retro fashion statement for your girl, while offering a place to lounge, eat, and possibly even mix up some drinks if the picnic spirit chooses you for its outdoor eating agenda. Remember to watch out for that meddling Yogi Bear.

Made using 3 food related fabrics (although the dress most likely doesn’t taste very good), the “Buttercup” dress is great for a Spring venture to your favorite picnicking spot. Oh, and not to mention easy access to the va-jay-jay for a little post-lunch fornication. — Andrew Dobrow

Ballpoint Eating Utensils Puts The Ink Where Your Mouth Is

503.jpg

They say the pen is mightier than the sword. But it would be pretty cool to have a cool knife extension to add on to the pen just in case. These eating utensil extensions for pens allow you to turn any average ballpoint into dining cutlery, or a weapon, depending on if you’re a cup-half-empty sort of guy.

Just imagine. The next time you see a only slightly soiled piece of chicken in someones trash can, you can whip out your pen and eat away. It’s funny how many gadgets can be turned into a hobo joke. — Andrew Dobrow
