I don’t know what it is about Microsoft and making terrible commercials. Their Seinfeld ads were a disaster. With Bing, they just sort of used the power of information overload, mass tedium and constant brand plugging to get their point across. I sort of liked the “Windows 7 was my idea” commercials, and by Microsoft standards they were works of ...

For those of you who don’t want to or mentally can’t do the math, 17,239 MPH is about 4.7 miles per second. So it takes about two seconds for the Earth to circle around yo momma’s ass. NASA astronaut Don Petit captured this time lapse video from the International Space Station. At one point you can actually see the northern ...

Oh to be young… and the child of filthy rich parents. Seriously, just the look on this privilege-faced snot’s mug makes me want to deck him. I bet he’s the type of kid who cries and whines when he doesn’t get the piece of Mario gear he wants, or “needs” is probably the way he puts it. Reality is going ...

Try as I might, I could never quite pull off an adequate Donald Duck impression. Some people are born with the gift and some are not. Apparently R. Lee Ermey and Samuel L. Jackson are two of them who were. YouTube user dingdangler takes extremely serious movie scenes and dubs them with animated Disney voices such as Donald Duck, Mickey ...

With how frequently a single sock goes missing in my house, I’m not sure what good a sock matching robot would be, but the concept is a novel one. UC Berkeley researchers programmed the PR2 robot to not only match up pairs of socks, but to also flip the inside out socks back to their outside in form. The robot ...

At the peak of their career, they numbered over 80,000 in Japan. Now, boiled down to a number lower than 1,000, the modern geisha has become more a novelty than the once revered and exclusive figures they once were. Largely the result of a 20-year economic slump in Japan, professional geisha, born and raised into the life of servitude, entertainment ...

Eventually, people are going to get bored of this whole fake instrument gaming craze. Once these controllers are mastered, the people over at the Rock Band development lab are going to have to get creative. In the future, perhaps within the next decade or two, it’s possible that Rock Band could look a little something like this video. Hell, we’re ...

Everybody has hydrochloric acid in their stomach. In fact, it’s one of the bodies first steps of digestion, beginning to break down the food and utilize the nutrients or lack there of. A team of scientists were curious just what it looks like to digest a fast food cheeseburger and the results are not pretty. Watch as a cheeseburger is ...

A year ago this month, my favorite celebrity sex tape of all time was released to the public. And to this day I have not found a video which excites me quite as much. What Mario and Princess Peach lack in creativity (they’re strictly missionary) they make up for with pure voyeuristic kink. The Mario bedroom is always open to ...

Did you know that CERN had its very own choir? It’s true. With foxy bespectacled sopranos and handsome pocket protector donning tenors, this nerdy troupe of physicists / choir singers performs their homegrown “The Particle Physics Song” which celebrates English physicist Peter Higgs and CERN’s quest to discover the existence of the Higgs boson. Fun fact: the Higgs boson is ...
