TAG RESULTS FOR: outdoors

‘Tis the season for impromptu picnics and outdoor activities. The problem I have is that most of the times I throw the idea out there for a picnic, I get a lot of disgruntled people saying they’d rather be inside with a comfortable place to sit then be sitting on the dirty ground with bugs crawling all over them. OK, look pussies. Since your precious buttocks can’t accept the fact that nature is part of a great picnic, I’ve got... Continue reading

Cower in fear mere mortal droplets of precipitation. Hark, your arch-nemesis has arrived. The Broadsword Umbrella protects any noble knight from their moist destiny.

The “Guardian of The Feast” seen above is a dragon-shaped grill and smoker combination designed by Ed McBride. Not only is it a fantastic piece of artwork by a skilled sculptor, it also looks like a great place to cook up some pigs. Just be prepared to pay far out the ass for it. Sold for $65,000 (other units are available). — Sean Fallon Link [via]
