Personally, I don’t really see the resemblance, at all. This bacon bust looks more like the love child of Conan O’Brien and Bill Clinton than a sculpture of Sir Kevin Bacon. J&D Foods teamed up with bacon-crafting blog What Do Bacon Do to create this Bacon Bust of Kevin Bacon. The bacon bust is available for purchase on eBay and ...

My dog took one look at this thing and very frankly told me, “There is absolutely no fricken’ way I’m wearing that thing,” except she didn’t exactly use the word fricken’. And in a way, I don’t blame her. She’s told me before that, much like me, she see’s anything more than Yoda Costumes as crossing the line. I respect ...

The Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System, also known as Pan-STARRS or even more pithily, PS1, is a 1.4 gigapixel telescopic camera stationed at Mount Haleakala in Hawaii, specially designed to alert us Earthlings to any space objects which might pose a threat to our existence. After only three months in action, PS1 has found one. The 150 feet ...

How does the government expect everyone to spend their unemployment checks? On gold, of course. A “couple of hundred” Gold to Go machines, joining the 35 which already exist in the Middle East, Italy, Spain and Germany, will be installed in the United States, so everyone and their mother can buy 1 gram, 5 gram, 10 gram and 28 gram ...

You might be wondering, why am I sitting here alone, perfectly capable of treating a woman right and treating her to all of the Star Wars-references that every girl deserves? It’s probably because you don’t have the smooth moves of this guy. Ladies like to hear sexy talk, and they like it in said in the most unimaginative and least ...

Oh, how the tables have turned. MySpace, once royalty of the social networking world has fallen into its new job as court jester faster than anyone could have imagined 5 years ago. In much of the mid-2000s, Facebook was a mere glimmer in Mark Zuckerberg’s testicles, aimed at uniting elite college students. MySpace, the ubiquitous giant of the average teenager’s ...

He looks like a little Ewok! Surprised Kitty has new competition with CapnPeteStraw’s Surprised Darth Vader, a parody of a meme (Surprised Kitty) inspired by a meme (LOLCats). Should we be expecting a parody of a parody? Maybe an Even More Surprised Darth Vader? Or Surprised Lando Calrissian? Come on, that just sounds like a hit.

For some of our favorite pop culture characters, an official LEGO minifig is nothing but a pipe dream. We rely on custom producers much more talented then ourselves to create the minifigs that the powers that be at LEGO have yet to grace us with. Han Solo has been reproduced in minifig form multiple times, but finally LEGO has released ...

Just as they did for AT&T’s Galaxy S release, the Samsung Captivate, Amazon.com is offering Verizon’s adaptation of the Android device, the Samsung Fascinate, for only $0.01, yes, one-cent, with a two-year contract. No other strings attached. I ordered a Captivate thorough Amazon when that sale was going on and saved myself a few hundred bucks. The Fascinate is equipped ...

For those of you out there who have adopted the Google Instant lifestyle with open arms, you might have noticed a little catch when searching for a query which might contain such dirty words as “hairy,” “submissive,” and even, dare I say it, “tushy.” These searches require the extra step of a click or a keystroke. This is no accident. ...
