Budweiser Nun Chucks Will Give You More Than A Hangover
When you get socked in the head by 'em, it's more like a concussion and a bed in the emergency room the morning after is what to expect. Truth is, beer cans as weapons are a really bad idea. Unless you're throwing them at zombies after running out of ammo, of course. The sheer ridiculousness of beer … [Read more...] about Budweiser Nun Chucks Will Give You More Than A Hangover
Origami Iron Man Has Got Lots Of Folds

The Sequel To The Thermocromic Urinal (Not)
Gotcha! Truth is this post has nothing to do with the Thermocromic Urinal that lights up every time it gets splashed with whiz. This is at least mildly related and involves no small amount of handyman smarts. Ladies and gentlemen, presenting the Snes Urinal. What's that smell? That's success, baby. … [Read more...] about The Sequel To The Thermocromic Urinal (Not)
Pizza Box DIY Laptop Is The Cutting Edge Of Innovation
And might just as well end up thrown in the trash if the owner isn't careful and leaves it in a corner, unused. To think this clever DIY build is supposed to deter thieves.
