| Reddit Asks Late Night Clerks About Strange Things They've Seen on the Job Posted: 05 Apr 2015 02:00 AM PDT
kane55: "I worked at a small convenience store in the early 1990’s. They had one of those fry delis that had chicken, jojos, corndogs, burritos etc. This particular night I had run out of burritos and chicken. I also shut the thing down and cleaned it all out about an hour before closing. About 5 minutes before I was closing up a guy walked in and asked for some burritos. I told him I was out of them, and that I was just about to close and the fryer was shut down. He walked around the store for a minute (I assumed he was looking for something else to buy) and then he came up to the counter, pulled out a knife and told me if I didn’t cook him some burritos he was going to stab me. I freaked out, but told him I had none to cook. I showed him the freezer and told him I would happily cook anything he wanted from it, but he will see I was out of burritos. He looked in it for a minute, turned to me and said, “You really are out.” I replied, “Yeah.” He then put the knife away and left the store. I worked at a 24/7 gas station in a small college town. One night, the club across the street had a fight break out and about 50 people were pepper sprayed by the police when they responded at about 1:30am. Five minutes later cue 50 angry club goers busting into the store, running to the dairy cooler, dousing themselves in milk and then running back out. I just stood there in utter confusion and then told my boss I didn’t want the late shift anymore. I work nights at a gas station in a pretty good neighborhood in New Hampshire, so usually it's pretty boring. One night I did have a customer really creep me out. I was just getting ready to close down the store when a little old man came in. He was small and dressed in khakis and a button down shirt. I made the usual small talk of asking him how his day was going. Then as I was handing him his change he firmly grabbed my wrist, made direct eye contact with me and said "hell is a real place and the devil has already got his hand on you girl, be careful"

| League Rules In Bedrock - A Modern Stone Age Mashup Posted: 05 Apr 2015 12:00 AM PDT League Rules In Bedrock by Jack Brimstone Barney Lebowski has surrounded himself with some rather rock-headed friends over the years, but Walter Flinstone really took the cake in terms of having rubble for brains. Barney and Walter met while working at the stone quarry- Barney was a bumbling goofball with a mellow mindset and Walter was a big, angry vet who had just come home from the Raptor Wars. They represented opposite sides of the emotional spectrum, and yet they bonded over one major thing they had in common- a love of bowling... Bring some movie mashup fun to your geeky wardrobe with this League Rules In Bedrock t-shirt by Jack Brimstone, and don't eff with the Jesus Lizard!

| Peeps Skillet S'mores Make Easter Droolworthy Posted: 05 Apr 2015 12:00 AM PDT There are a lot of people out there who find Peeps just too sugary with no depth of flavor. These Peeps peanutbutter chocolate skillet s'mores featured on How Sweet It Is offer a wonderful way to fix that problem. Not only is the sugary-sweetness of the Peeps slightly negated by the other ingredients, but the pure sugar on the outside of the marshmallows is given a chance to break down and caramelize, making the Peeps themselves more complex and delicious. Whether you love Peeps or hate them, if you like s'mores, you'd probably love this recipe. I know I'm going to run out and buy some Peeps right now. | ||||||||
| Posted: 04 Apr 2015 10:00 PM PDT It’s not that far fetched to believe that a dog can play table tennis. After all, many dogs can catch a ball with their mouths, or lob one back at you with their snouts. A border collie is perfectly capable of learning to do it holding a paddle. What’s notable is how enthusiastic he is about showing off his skills. He’s even giving some trash talk if you listen closely! He’s about to win, except that he wants to get up on the table so the be closer to the action. Sorry, Bud, that’s an illegal move. Still, he’s better than I will ever be at the game. -via Viral Viral Videos | ||||||||
| "Monster" Lucille Ball Statue Erected in New York Posted: 04 Apr 2015 08:00 PM PDT
Actress Lucille Ball, who was most famous for her 1950s show I Love Lucy, grew up in the town Celoron, which is in western New York. In 2009, officials erected a bronze statue to honor her. It shows a scene from an episode of her signature show. The people of Celoron love Lucy. But they hate the statue. It's so ugly that they want it torn down. The New York Daily News reports:
He has a point. But look into the hungry eyes of that statue. Do you really think that it's safe to try to pull it down? -via Jim Treacher | ||||||||
| Teenage Minecraft Player Admits To Three Swattings Posted: 04 Apr 2015 06:00 PM PDT For most people prank calling means ordering a pizza for an unsuspecting neighbor or calling a bar and asking for Amanda Hugginkiss, but for one little Minecraft obsessed prankster crank calls simply aren't enough. This kid likes doing two things above all- playing Minecraft and swatting his foes, meaning he got SWAT teams to kick in the doors of those he felt had wronged him in real life and in the Minecraft universe. The thirteen year old, whose name has been withheld due to his age, used phone spoofing software to call in anonymous threats that resulted in SWAT teams being deployed to three different addresses. The targets were a classmate and teacher from his school in Ventura County, California, and a player he considers his arch-enemy in Minecraft, who lives in Ocean City, New Jersey. Two questions come to mind after reading this story- how does a Minecraft rivalry become so overblown? and can you really get the SWAT team to show up at somebody's house with a threatening phone call? -Via Polygon | ||||||||
| High Winds Make for a Terrifying Experience for These Window Washers Posted: 04 Apr 2015 04:00 PM PDT The window washers in the footage above were trapped at the mercy of high winds for 15 minutes on the 91st floor of the Shanghai World Financial Center April 2. The scaffolding they were perched upon swayed drastically from side to side and violently hit the windows of the 1,600-foot-tall building (shown in the photo below) numerous times. According to this article at Gizmodo, the Shanghai World Financial Center is the seventh tallest building in the world. Can you imagine? My heart is beating out of my chest just from watching the video! | ||||||||
| Make Your Own Galaxy Easter Eggs Posted: 04 Apr 2015 02:00 PM PDT Earlier this week I wrote a list of 10 cool ways to decorate your eggs this Easter, but if none of those seemed up your alley, perhaps you're looking for something a little more... heavenly. Well then these eggs from Dream A Little Bigger are sure to help. These beautifully spacy eggs are filled with stars, nebulas and more. The process is surprisingly simple -though quite messy, and the results are absolutely striking. Via Laughing Squid | ||||||||
| Posted: 04 Apr 2015 12:00 PM PDT Get a chocolate latte and you've crossed all three items off the list at once. Add some creme de menthe to that latte and you've added the power to forget. It'll work! He's already smiling. | ||||||||
| Posted: 04 Apr 2015 10:00 AM PDT It appears 3D printing technology has already gone from new and useful to experimental and strange, and some people aren’t content with simple plastic printouts anymore. Chocolate printers have been a reality for some time, as well as the amazing pancake printer (aka the future of flapjack technology), but creating a Easy Cheese printer is proving to be a lot harder than anyone thought. Artist Andrew Maxwell-Parish is the cheese whiz who came up with the idea of using 3D printer technology to shape squeezable cheese food product into eye pleasing shapes, and this ridiculous test video proves it's ain't easy to print with Easy Cheese!

| Posted: 04 Apr 2015 08:00 AM PDT Webster was a family sitcom in the 1980s. It was sentimental fluff, starring tiny precocious actor Emmanuel Lewis, with a seemingly nonstop laugh track. So it was a surprise to hear that an episode of Webster featured an appearance by Lt. Worf of Star Trek: The Next Generation. In the episode titled “Webtrek,” Webster is magically transported to the 24th century, to the bridge of the Enterprise where Worf is on duty.
The crossover was the final episode of the Webster series, featuring mostly clips from previous episodes as Webster explains to Worf what his life back in 1989 was like. Trekcore takes a look at the strange episode from the viewpoint of a Star Trek fan. Sadly, “Webtrek” is not one of the episodes of Webster available on the ‘net. -via Fashion It So | ||||||||
| Posted: 04 Apr 2015 07:00 AM PDT We've previously featured a Scotch Cadbury Creme Egg before, but it's clear that Perry Santanachote of Thrillist has improved upon the concept. She made this beautiful-looking chocolate wonder by first freezing a dozen Cadbury Creme Eggs. Then she coated them with chocolate cake mix powder, followed by egg whites, then cocoa powder, and finally--this is the brilliant part--Cocoa Krispies cereal. Santanachote deep fried each egg for about a minute or two. Pictured above are the gorgeous results. -via First We Feast | ||||||||
| One More Tee! - Don't Be Daft, Add This One To Your Collection! Posted: 04 Apr 2015 06:00 AM PDT They're two of a kind, but they wear different helmets so you can tell them apart. These musical jokers are considered daft by some, technologic punks by others, but all agree that their sound is delightfully danceable! When this cyber duo starts to play their electro tunes invite you to lose yourself to dance, and when the song ends everybody starts to shout out "one more time!" Add some musical game to your geeky wardrobe with this One More Tee! t-shirt by Fearcheck, it's the perfect attire to wear as you travel around the world or simply kick back and listen to your favorite tunes.

| Every Tom Hanks Movie In Seven Minutes Posted: 04 Apr 2015 06:00 AM PDT Tom Hanks would love to star in every movie ever made (including the ones with an all female cast) but he’s just too busy being Tom Hanks to play every single role being written. Instead, we’ll just have to enjoy an accelerated performance by Tom, and new host of The Late Late Show James Corden, as they reenact every Tom Hanks movie ever made in less than seven minutes. Once Tom’s done being the big cheese in Hollywood he should consider rebooting Bosom Buddies with James Corden at his side! Too bad Tom’s paycheck alone would bankrupt the network… -Via VH1 |
