Goodbye Harlem Shake, We Won’t Miss You (February 2013 – February 2013)

Don’t do the Harlem Shake!

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here in memory of, ahem, The Harlem Shake. Oh, it might have been a quirky little thing when we introduced the world to it a week and a half ago, but that’s gone now. It’s over. The Harlem Shake is Dead. I could not be happier.

Coors Light Brings Together Six World-Class Athletes to Test the First-Ever Cold Activated Skis

Dat cold activated bottle!

Coors Light is my beer of choice. Maybe it’s because I like to show some local pride (Coors is in Golden, CO), the fact that they have the best beer technology or maybe it’s because it just the best beer out there. Let’s go with all three. Read the rest of this article…

Kum & Go’s Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza Review: It’s Delicious

Kum & Go’s Bacon Cheeseburger Pizza Review: It’s Delicious

“I knew the night I saw you on the showroom floor, you were meant for me.”

Unless you live in the American midwest, a Kum & Go is not within reach. In short, it’s an upscale C-store/gas station where smiling employees in pressed white shirts and khakis greet you from their dais. They started opening a number of these in the Springs just recently and they came to my attention primarily because of Kelly’s unbridled love of breakfast-themed foods, including the legendary Breakfast Pizza. (We even made a quick stop last year on our way to LA for E3.) One whole wall in each Kum & Go is a dedicated kitchen where you can have said pizzas and other foods made, including the number you see above: a gorgeous pickle-tinged Bacon Cheeseburger pizza. My heart was simply incomplete until I had one.

No Dance Skills Required: Doing The Harlem Shake

No Dance Skills Required: Doing The Harlem Shake

Do the Harlem Shake!

This craze of doing the “Harlem Shake” has been getting major buzz over the last couple of weeks. If you don’t know what it is let me quickly explain it. Song starts with music and there is one person doing some kind of stupid dance or thrusting, bonus points if they are wearing some kind of mask, around other people that are completely unfazed, then you hear “do the Harlem Shake” and the music drops and it cuts to same scene where everyone is acting a fool.

Lamborghini’s Sesto Elemento Is The Coolest Car I’ve Seen Today

Lamborghini’s Sesto Elemento Is The Coolest Car I’ve Seen Today

If it were a little smaller, I could imagine it sheathing knives.

I didn’t used to like cars. Learning to drive them, caring what they are, their models or whatever, none of that. I still don’t know how the steering wheel transfers power to the driveshaft from the alternator, but after Project Gotham Racing 2 came out, I kept an eye open for beautiful cars thereafter, particularly exotic supercars those Europeans like building. The latest on my list is Lamborghini’s Sesto Elemento, unveiled in 2010, but finally hitting production this year. Ain’t she a beaut’?

Why Have I Not Known About Extreme Pogo-Stick Sport Before Now?

Why Have I Not Known About Extreme Pogo-Stick Sport Before Now?

The sport of dreams.

Guys, I just learned this thing existed, I’m sorry. I think you already know whether any particular ‘extreme sport’ is for you because of the name alone. Extreme sport. I can’t watch regular sports, they’re too boring. Extreme sports are like those, but with Monster Energy pumping through its circulatory and a Mountain Dew at hand. They’re caricature sports, or that’s how the ads have made them out to be. The big problem I have with them is that physics and the limits of human ability have already showed us what we can do with skateboards, bicycles, snowboards, and variants thereof.

But extreme pogo sticking? This is new.

The White House Responds to Death Star Petition, “This Isn’t the Petition Response You’re Looking For”

The White House Responds to Death Star Petition, “This Isn’t the Petition Response You’re Looking For”

The start of DEATH!

In November there was a White House petition titled, “secure resources and funding, and begin construction of a Death Star by 2016.” This petition quickly reached 25,000 signatures, the minimum number of people required that will prompt the White House administration to respond. The petition says it will strengthen our national defense and create jobs. Students from Lehigh University figured out the math and it would take $852 quadrillion and 833,315 years to produce enough steel to build it. Read the rest of this article…

It’s The End Of The World As We Know It And I Feel Fine

It’s The End Of The World As We Know It And I Feel Fine

Just one way out.

At the time of this posting, we are nine hours into December 21st, 2012, the fabled rejuvenation of the Mayan calendar and final historical reference to any definitive end of days. We enjoy this so much because we wonder how we would handle ourselves in such a scenario where people relied on us more than ever. What if we needed to be sturdier, craftier creatures than our neighbors? How smart are we? Could we truly survive the apocalypse? Let’s go over a few scenarios.

Be The Better Man With Conair

Yeah, what that caption says…

Hey, all you men reading this, pay close attention. Movember has been over for almost a month now and I know you’ve been lazy and haven’t shaved; or in my case, trimmed. See I don’t grow very much facial hair (That doesn’t make me any less of a man though!). Conair has a wide range of gear just for us men. Ladies, pay attention too because you can pick your man up something if he is looking shaggy. Read the rest of this article…

Cards Against Humanity Donates Pay-What-You-Want Profits to Wikipedia

Don’t be like this asshole…

If you’ve never heard of Cards Against Humanity, you are really missing out on something special. Instead of trying to explain it you can check out their site or Wikipedia for more information. Back to what I was talking about before you rudely interrupted me, they had a pay-what-you-want holiday pack. Now that it’s over they released the stats on how everything broke down.
