Life-Sized LEGO Mario is the LEGOiest Plumber Ever

life-sized-lego-mario1

We’ve seen Mario’s henchmen in LEGO form before, but never have we seen the man himself quite like this. Weighing in at a massive 110 pounds and standing 5 feet 9 inches tall, this life sized Mario model is completely structured, modeled and built using  over 40,000 LEGO bricks. The pictures do all the talking here.

Built specifically for the Netherlands’ Game Mania by Dirk VH, the result of this massive undertaking is to be sold on eBay, with all proceeds heading off to charity, most likely to aid starving plumbers.

Wrench Ring for the Fashionable Mechanic

12-point-wrench-ring

As far as manly jewelry goes, you don’t see many candidates. People try, they really do. But most of the results are unisex at best. This 12-point Wrench Ring oozes of testosterone, down to its silver finish.

It’s not quiet clear whether you can use the ring for anything manly, like repairing your muscle car or cleaning out your sink’s pipes (and remember kids, ass crack is mandatory), but keep this ring in your toolbox, just for the hell of it. You never know when a cutie will be walking past your construction site. For those moments, you’ll have an extra touch of class waiting for you.

Mario Spotted on the Streets of New York City

We figured that the second most famous plumber in the world (Screw you, Joe the Plumber Douche Bag. Can’t you just go away already?) would be spending his days looking for gold coins in the pipes of the most famous city in the world. Good luck on finding that gold though. Times are tough, my man. Frankly, I don’t blame Mario for taking on more of a “viral” marketing scheme.

And you thought Mario only climbed through pipes when he was trying to save princesses? No way. That dirty little shit just loves the smell of feces. Can’t get enough of it. Just watch out for alligators, Mr. Mario. And even if large reptilian beings in the NYC sewage system happens to only be a myth, have you seen New York City’s rats? They might as well be grizzly bears.

Mario Kart: For Real

Meet Remi Gaillard. He’s a real Italian plumber (except he’s French). The kind that drives a go-kart in live traffic, throwing banana peels at those trying to pass him by in an attempt to thwart their course. Yes, this man is playing Mario Kart for real. A hilarious video that’s well made and fun to watch. Don’t miss out.

DIY: Paper Mario Hat With Shoddy Graphics

Everyone loves cosplaying as their favorite Italian plumber. All it takes is a red shirt and some overalls and all you’re missing is a hat and phony mustache.  Well, don’t worry about buying some expensive Nintendo-licensed product made of fabric. Instead, make your own Mario hat with nothing more than some paper, printer ink and Band-Aids. Just don’t try grabbing any fire flowers in the Mushroom Kingdom because this hat is anything but flame retardant.

Unless your uncautious enough to bring your laptop into the bathroom, odds are that your daily bowel evacuations are a waste of time you wish your life didn’t require you to take. If your one of the lucky ones to win this Pimped Out John, you’ll never have to leave the pooper period!

Roto-Rooter is giving one away for National Plumber’s Day on April 25th. Plumbers are so proud of these rooms that the are willing to give away a tech filled bathroom just to spread the word. For one of these we’d write a hymn for them. — Andrew Dobrow
