This is the AK-47 that guitar maker Jimmy DiResta turned into a fully functional guitar for Wycleaf Jean. It carries a powerful message. One about…Haiti? Okay so maybe I don’t know what the message is, or if there even is one. Not everything has to make some sort of social or political statement you know.

Note: If you’re not into baby photography you might want to skip this one. This is a fantasy themed photoshoot by Wendi Riggens starring baby Maddie as the heroines from a bunch of different fairy tales. If I had a daughter I’d be temped to do something similar, except with video game characters. No children

In ‘terrifying if you have to work in it after it’s constructed’ news, China is planning on building the world’s tallest building in only three months. The 220-story skyscraper, named Sky City, is being built by the same company (Broad Sustaining Building) that built this 30-story hotel in 15 days, all thanks to the prefabrication

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen the house from Pixar’s ‘Up’ recreated in real life, but it is the first time we’ve seen it recreated in real life WITH A HUMAN PASSENGER ABOARD. Unfortunately the passenger was “professional” cluster-balloonist Jonathan Trappe and not a crotchety old man and chubby boyscout. Honestly, I still haven’t

This is Brewer Ledge Inc’s Treadwall. It’s a vertical treadmill for rock-climbing. You can adjust the speed, as well as the angle of the wall from +5 to -20 degrees so you can even climb hanging upside down. I really hope my gym gets one, but mostly just to sneak in at night and remove

Scientists recently unearthed two 16th century vampire skeletons in Bulgaria that were buried with iron stakes through their hearts. Why the medieval vampire hunters didn’t use garlic marinaded steaks is beyond me, but I suspect it’s because I’m dumb and have the brain of a dinosaur (my dad was a t-rex).

This is a giant chart depicting sixteen different types of geeks. Are they accurate? Not a single f***ing one. I’m not even sure why I posted them except 1. to make sure I have a reason to hate myself later so 2. I have an excuse to go out drinking tonight. What can I say,

In hipster-heartbreaking news, some doctors are now claiming that ultra-tight “skinny” jeans are causing leg-related health problems, and at least one really fantastic looking bulge in the front of a blogger’s pants. ABC recently interviewed Dr. Karen Boyle from Greater Baltimore Medical Center, who has recently seen cases of women suffering pain from wearing tight

Note: Larger version HERE in case you wanna make it your new Facebook cover photo or whatever. You people are weird! This is a shot of Pixar characters moonlighting as The Avengers as imagined by artist J. M. Walter. I don’t know about you, but I’m a sucker for Sulley from Monsters, Inc. You remember
