Cat Butt Tat.

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

Just when I thought I’d seen everything, I saw this.  Is the guy really going to want to rock this tattoo when he’s 80?

Photo of the Week: Statue Pickpocket

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

I’ve always hated clever statues of people in their native habitats.
I took this in New York City last month - a good shot of me picking its pocket.

Vulgar Note: Someone had taken a crap in the open bronze suitcase. Apparently other people hate this kind of art also.

Monthly Mashup Vol. 10 - Make It Rain Unconditionally

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

Lil Wayne + The Bravery. Make it Rain + Unconditional. The result? You be the judge. My opinion? Indie Electronica Rap ain’t half bad.

Free Punch!

Free Punch!:

The Beeskit team has a nice video gallery of their sociological “missions” and art projects throughout Seoul, South Korea. “Free Punch” and “Elevator Workout” are two personal favorites.

Kinda Frooty

Monday, March 10th, 2008

These “Collectible Treasure Cards” were on the back of a box of Froot Loops.

Does anybody else think these sound a little fruity?

“TOUCAN SAM - Can smell adventure coming from miles away.”

“COLOSSAL LOOP - The loop that needs a colossal mouth.”

“BLACK BEAK - The pirate king with the fruitiest booty.”

“GLITTER ISLAND - The best island to find Golden Berry loops.”

“FROOT LOOPS - Six colors for sailin’ the seven seas.”

Hide and Go Seek Poop

Monday, March 10th, 2008

This is what happens when you’ve worked in an office far too long - you invent games like “Hide and Go Poop.”

To be honest, I’d probably play this if I worked there.
I’d probably be Grand Champion and brag about it, too.

Dr. Pepper

Monday, March 10th, 2008

This weekend, I found a local source for Dublin Dr. Pepper. Score!
For those of you who aren’t in-the-know: Dublin Dr. Pepper is the special original recipe Dr. Pepper, bottled in Dublin, Texas, and only available to people who are awesome. They use cane sugar, it adds a nice caramel note to the ‘Pepper.

Some interesting Dr. Pepper info:
• The company holds that Dr.Pepper is “a unique blend of 23 flavors” and that “the formula is proprietary information.” The fundamental flavors of Dr. Pepper are cherry and almond (amaretto). It is a spicy cherry-almond softdrink.

• Though it may have flavor notes similar to prune juice, it contains no prune juice, and never has.

• Because Dr. Pepper has figured so prominently in the pantheon of American softdrinks, it has been “cloned” dozens and dozens of times. There are entire online galleries of fake Dr. Peppers. The most well known clone being Mr. Pibb (by Coca-Cola).

• The late comedian Mitch Hedberg said it best:

“Mr. Pibb is a replica of Dr.Pepper. But it’s a bullshit replica - ‘cause the dude didn’t even get his degree. Why’d you have to drop-out and start making pop so soon?!”

The Making of a Celebrity Mash-up Rollergirl Video

Monday, March 10th, 2008

Here’s a background short on Baron Davis and Emanuelle Chriqui’s film, One Shot, that we profiled last week. Is this what professional athletes from Hollywood do in the off season?

[Editors note from Heywood]: Blogadilla is pumped to welcome long-time reader and contributor Nerol Someones as a new author. Be (somewhat) nice to the guy- we’re glad to have him!

Oh-my-pod

Monday, March 10th, 2008

I love my ipod. I talk to it. “I love you, ipod.” I have it full of obnoxious Justin Timberlake videos. But, I had no idea I could love it this way. Dang.

“Simply plug OhMiBod into your iPod® or any music player and it automatically vibrates to the rhythm and intensity of the music. Let your body feel the vibrations as you get down with your favorite tunes”.

Also check out Boditalk - “Boditalk™ is activated by calls made to or from your cell phone when in close range. The cell signal triggers a unique 3 pattern vibrating sequence that lasts for the entire call – enabling you to “get off while you’re on.”"

Dick Vitale Is A VERY Sweaty Man.

Sunday, March 9th, 2008

I took this screenshot after last night’s UNC-Duke men’s basketball game. Take special note of Dick Vitale’s hyperhidrotic sweat glands… I mean, who sweats through his own tie?

Odd Candies: Gummi Jet Fighters

Albanese Gummi Jet Fighters
(No, they are not from Albania).

Wow, it’s like an invasion in my mouth!

They’re an airstrike of flavor!

They’re carpet-bombing my taste buds!

Taste the collateral damage!

Movie Review: 10,000 BC Holy Sh!t This Was Bad!!

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

Blogadilla co-author Allison and I just got back from watching 10,000 BC. The following is an inventory of our comments driving home from the movie:

•”It’s sad when the best actor in a movie is a computer animated Wooly Mammoth.”

•”If they show this on an airplane, I’m jumping.”

•”This is what happens when you take drugs in a natural history museum.”

•”I’ve picked scabs that were more satisfying.”

•”It was a great comedy.”

•”Roland Emmerich peaked at Godzilla.”

•”10,000 BC - yeah, 10,000 Bad Choices.”

•”Why is it that everyone in 10,000 BC looked like Adam Duritz from Counting Crows?”
