If I wanted a normal Venus Fly Trap, I’d go to my local florist. But normalcy is boring, so I’d pick one up from the Dicovery Store. Sure, it might not be a “real” plant, but can a real plant lure insects into its grasps, sense the fly’s motion, and then chomp down on the little guy, swallowing him (or ...

One crappy thing about being a professional musician in a classical orchestra is all of the masses of sheet music you have to lug around with you from venue to venue, and practice to practice.

While there seems to be plenty of Pedro’s Bill’s and Achmed’s Jim’s to pump my gas for me while I clean off the face of my Rolex (here in Jersey we still don’t have self-serve, huzzah for laziness), someone seems to think that a robot could complete the task much better than a minority upstanding citizen.

How can we not be distracted at the office when all of our coworkers are wearing such low cut blouses? The chest hair is just overwhelming. The Office Collar resembles the collar the vet gave me after I had to get neutered, so I couldn’t lick my wounds. Wearing the Office Collar creates your own private cubicle for your head, ...

I would have grown up to be a carpenter if it weren’t for� those meddling kids that whole manual labor thing. If I could sit on my ass all day and build shit from my computer I’d be all set.
