Dog Fetch Fails

Dog Fetch Fails

There are plenty of dogs who are more than up to the task of fetching and retrieving objects. These are not those dogs. Whether through lack of coordination or overstimulation, these pups aren’t bringing the ball home any time soon.

Googlifier

Googlifier

The other Steve Wozniak has created this ridiculous Chrome extension which does its best to identify faces on every web page, and replace their peepers (and occasionally other orifices) with googly eyes. Guaranteed minutes of fun!

Rapid Snow Removal

Rapid Snow Removal

There are few good excuses we can think of for having one of those stupidly loud car stereo systems that vibrates the whole outside the car. But digging out from wintry white stuff without a snow brush seems like a legit one.

…Meanwhile…

…Meanwhile…

Like Slow Life, Sandro Bocci’s …Meanwhile… is a collection of close up time-lapse videos of corals, sponges and other peculiar marine animals. Equal parts beautiful and horrifying. We’re not gonna say they’re aliens, but they’re aliens.

Betabrand Flashback Collection

Betabrand Flashback Collection

Clothes made of glass-coated fabric. If someone takes a picture of you with a flash when you’re wearing any of these, the glass will reflect the flash back at the camera, obscuring your face in the process. If only they worked without a flash.

Scenes You’ve Seen 2

Scenes You’ve Seen 2

Kia Sportspace Concept

Kia Sportspace Concept

Kia has been on a roll with its concept designs lately, and the sleek Sportspace is no exception. We don’t have specs yet on the car, but it certainly looks better than most other station wagons. And those wheels are just stellar.

An Honest Jewelry Store Commercial

An Honest Jewelry Store Commercial

Cracked takes a different tack at the familiar argument against ridiculously overpriced jewelry and gems, making their point through this jewelry store ad parody. Despite all this, diamonds (and sapphires and rubies) are still a girl’s best friend.

The Wearable Tomato Project

The Wearable Tomato Project

Perhaps the most ridiculous invention to hit the running scene ever, the Tomatan is a robot that athletes can strap to themselves so they can eat tomatoes while distance running. A silly promo gimmick for Japanese food company Kagome.

Realistic Smash Bros. Claps

Realistic Smash Bros. Claps

GrumpOut imagines the sound of the characters’ end-game clapping animation in Super Smash Bros. Wii U. The boring clappers only makes the odd ones even funnier. Mega Man’s sound had us nodding our heads. Also King Dedede is high.

Beam Smart Projector

Beam Smart Projector

A pico projector that screws into E26 and E27 light sockets. Beam runs Android 4.4 and works with AirPlay and Miracast-enabled devices. It has a small flat side so you can rest it on a flat surface as well.

Sleater-Kinney: A New Wave

Sleater-Kinney: A New Wave

The kids of Bob’s Burgers rock out to Sleater-Kinney in the official music video for A New Wave, from their blast from the past new album No Cities to Love. A rare sighting of Tina feeling things. And not staring at butts.

Thermoneystat

Thermoneystat

A thermostat that sticks to a budget, not a target temperature. Set a target amount, your gas rate and your electricity rate and Thermoneystat will do the rest, figuring out the best settings and power on times for your AC and heater.

Honda: Keep Up

Honda: Keep Up

Honda promotes the Civic Type-R, the NSX and its other new vehicles by helping you speed read. Seriously. Just keep your eyes on the middle of the video and press play. Ready for level 2? Go! Oh we’re not done yet! Goooo!

Cookie Monster’s Shower Thoughts

Cookie Monster’s Shower Thoughts

When you think about it, onion rings really are vegetable donuts. Cookie Monster does his best to channel Philosoraptor in this amusing clip in which the furry blue cookie connoisseur ponders some deep thoughts about food.

Whiskey Bullets

Whiskey Bullets
Buy

These bullet-shaped whiskey chillers are the only way we recommend mixing guns and booze. They’ll keep your drinks cool without watering them down, and you’ll look like a badass drinking from a glass full of bullets.

Dog Spa

Dog Spa

Most of the dogs we’ve had turned bath time into deathmatches. If only all dogs behaved like Golden Retrievers. Take this smart fella. He realizes that bath time is an opportunity to be served by his master. Mmm, keep scrubbing…
