Put That In Your Banana and Stuff It

Posted: 04 May 2015 04:00 AM PDT

Bananas are great -they not only look cool and taste wonderful, they even have their own protective sleeve. But you know what would make a banana even better? Stuffing it with even more tastiness like jam, crushed Oreos, peanut butter and (best of all) Nutella.

The Destapa Banana is a clever invention that work similar to an apple corer and then fills the center with anything you imagine -liquid or solid.

Photo Series Reveals What It's Like To Grow Up In A Hoarder's House

Posted: 04 May 2015 02:00 AM PDT

Hoarding disorder makes it hard, if not impossible, for hoarders to throw anything away, and their lives quickly become one big, cluttered mess.

Hoarders are often abandoned by their families, because people can no longer bear to live in a home piled floor to ceiling with garbage, and kids whose parents are hoarders experience an entirely different kind of homelife.

Photographer Geoff Johnson and his sister grew up in a hoarder's house, so he decided to share their unique childhood experiences with the uncluttered world through a series of photographs entitled "Behind The Door".

The images are voyeuristic, unsettling and yet insightful, giving us a rare glimpse of how a child might cope with life among the rubbish piles.

How To Become A Fossil After You Die

Posted: 04 May 2015 01:00 AM PDT

There were plenty of hominids of the Australopithecus afarensis species at one time, but there’s only one Lucy. There were once many T. rexes, but there’s only one Sue. Have you ever considered the possibility that your own existence might be enshrined in a museum if you were to become a fossil after you die? What are the chances of that happening? 

“Pretty minimal,” laughed Mark Norell, the chair of the paleontology department at the American Museum of Natural History. There are things you can do, especially in your last breathing moments, to goose your chances of become a fossil, but, he says, there’s no way to guarantee that your fossilized bones will be discovered in 100,000 years.

“We have a fossil record, and it goes back billions of years, but nevertheless it only represents a miniscule fraction, like point-zero-zero-zero-etcetera percent, of both individuals and species that have ever lived on the planet, because most things just don't preserve,” says Norell. “It's a very rare event to become a fossil.”

But some individual living things did just that. The conditions that favor fossilization and the process of becoming a fossil are explained in depth at Atlas Obscura.

Kid's Father and Uncle Build Him a Millenium Falcon Bed

Posted: 04 May 2015 12:00 AM PDT

Imgur user edmcgowan works at a design studio with his brother, and the two decided to see what type of design trouble they could get into by transforming his nephew's room into a Star Wars-themed, kids' dream. 

A year ago the uncle and father duo posted a photo of the build in progress. Now they're showing off the finished product: a Millennium Falcon cockpit bed with an AT-AT leg for support. The desk at the side of the bed is a wing and the wall next to the cockpit is made to look like a hangar door, which slides open to reveal a window. It's even equipped with a fan to blow air into the sleeping portion of the ship. She's got it where it counts, kid.

Who’s the Monster?

Thank you, Dad, for taking care of the monster under the bed. But I don’t think I’ll be getting much sleep tonight anyway.

Grammarly, a grammar and spellchecking program, can search through text to find more than 400 different types of errors. Recently, to demonstrate the capabilities of Grammarly, the company that makes it examined 150 reader comments that were at least 50 words long in the discussion boards of each official NFL team website.  It then ranked which teams had the most philologically-challenged fans.

Fans of the Washington Redskins won the contest with approximately 16.5 mistakes for every 100 words. Go Redskins!

Cowboys vs. Dinosaurs

Posted: 03 May 2015 06:00 PM PDT

You know when you hear a movie idea so great, you think there’s no way anyone could mess it up? Then along comes Snakes on a Plane and then Cowboys and Aliens. Both offered an irresistible combination that ended up being rather disappointing. Those two movies were the first thing I thought of when I heard about Cowboys vs. Dinosaurs. Then I thought about Valley of the Gwangi, which was a pretty good movie for its day. But thenI watched the trailer for Cowboys vs. Dinosaurs.

(YouTube link)

This is no Valley of the Gwangi. But it might have all the charm of Sharknado if you watch it expecting an unintentional comedy. MarVista Entertainment will release Cowboys vs. Dinosaurs not in theaters, but in digital HD and On Demand May 19. -via Uproxx

Prom season is upon us once again, which means it’s time for parental units to stress out about their child's safety, time for teens to stress out over making the most of their night, and time for school officials to stress out over the whole affair.

But those lucky teens who were destined to become famous adults didn't stress out about prom night- they were all cool and aloof, looking like everything was alright, alright, alright in the world

And those fearless and fashion forward teen divas who knew they were destined for greatness showed up to prom ready to work it!

Celebrities in Music Videos Before They Were Famous

Posted: 03 May 2015 02:00 PM PDT


YouTube Link

One way (particularly in the 1980s and '90s) for budding actors to make a living was to audition for parts in music videos. If they were lucky, the song would be a big hit and they would get a lot of exposure to the valuable younger demographic.

Christina Hendricks' part in the Everclear video shown above is taken from this larger collection of music videos featuring early appearances by now famous celebrities. Included are: Katy Perry, Matt LeBlanc, Channing Tatum, Elijah Wood, Jack Black, Wesley Snipes, Matthew McConaughey, Courteney Cox, Bill Paxton, Paula Abdul, Zach Galifianakis, John Goodman, Angelina Jolie, Phil Hartman, Aaron Paul, Patrick Swayze and RuPaul.

Labyrinth Table

Posted: 03 May 2015 12:00 PM PDT

The Labyrinth Table is a coffee table designed by Benjamin Nordsmark that has a detailed maze underneath its glass top. Even though its enclosed, you can try to solve this maze: it has 6 little figurines of people inside.

Move them around with the help of handles that you run under the table. When you’re through, the handles will stick anywhere on the table, so you can’t lose them. Unlike a full-size labyrinth, the people in this one won’t panic or starve if you run into a dead end or leave them for days without moving. See the Labyrinth Table in action in this video. -via Laughing Squid

A Look At The Vehicles From <i>Mad Max: Fury Road</i>

Posted: 03 May 2015 10:00 AM PDT

Vehicles have played a major role in Mad Max folklore from the very beginning, and the sheer variety of vehicle types and apocalyptic modifications make the vehicles feel like they're another character in the story.

The latest installment, Mad Max: Fury Road, is continuing the tradition of giving these amazing apocalyptic vehicles center stage, and there are more vehicles in the new film than all other Mad Max films combined.

In fact, Fury Road features over 150 real life vehicles driven by real life stunt drivers, all of which were dreamed up by production designer Colin Gibson and constructed by Kennedy Miller Mitchell.

Here’s a look at ten of the more notable vehicles from the film, courtesy of Car And Driver. They'll make car mod fans go ooh, fans of the apocalyptic genre go aaah, and any critters that live around Fury Road go eek!

Inflatable Bar

Posted: 03 May 2015 07:00 AM PDT

WOW Sports produces what it calls the Aqua Table. It’s an inflatable bar with a big central cooler. You can put ice in and drain the cooler through a port. It would be ideal for a pool or lake party. Just add ice and drinks in the center.

There’s an anchor and anchor line. That could come in handy once if you’ve had a bit too much and get swept away down to the deep end of the pool.

Elders React To Mortal Kombat X

Posted: 03 May 2015 06:00 AM PDT

The first Mortal Kombat arcade game debuted in arcades back in 1992, when those who are considered senior citizens nowadays were full grown adults.

That means many of them don’t get the appeal of video games, much less a video game where you finish your opponent by ripping their spine out or tearing their still beating heart from their chest.

The latest entry in the series Mortal Kombat X features the goriest and most depraved fatalities yet, so what will elders who already don’t get the appeal of gaming think about this stepped up level of violence?

(YouTube Link)

Surprisingly, some of them seem to really get into the gore in the latest video by REACT, and even though they couldn't pull off any fatalities their competitive natures make them call out for the blood of their opponents!
