| How to Make Party Punch in a Toilet Posted: 03 May 2021 04:04 PM PDT
This brilliant woman is the next Martha Stewart. Watch as Anna of The Anna Show mixes ice, candy, and sherbet into a toilet bowl and then puts several flavored sodas into the empty tank in the back. When she flushes the toilet, the ingredients form the perfect party drink (well, absent alcohol) in an eye-catching serving bowl. I want to try this trick at home, but to modify it to create an enormous root beer float. -via Nag on the Lake  |
| Breed Cute Animals In This Game To Turn Them Into Handbags Posted: 03 May 2021 02:53 PM PDT
You could turn the animals into handbags, but you can also choose not to! Developed by Springloaded Games, Let's Build a Zoo is a zoo management game where you can build your own zoo and fill it with over 500 types of animals. The game's pixelated art style adds a cute and nostalgic flair as well. Don't underestimate this game, though. There is a dark and twisted side to game, as PC Gamer details: One exciting hook of Let's Build a Zoo is the DNA splicing feature, which lets you turn those 500 animal types into hundreds of thousands by mixing up their genes in your lab. If your exhibits are a bit on the bland side, just take a crocodile, a duck, and some science, and whip up a crocoduck. Dr. Moreau would be proud. Playing god with animal DNA sounds fun, if not exactly ethical. And it sounds like Let's Build a Zoo is going to be keeping tabs on just how evil you might be planning to get: "Sure, you can build a loving environment for your animals, guests and staff," reads the press release sent to PC Gamer, "but with a fully-fledged morality system, you have the choice to go down an evil path, work your staff to the bone, and essentially turn your zoo into a meat factory." An adorable pixelated zoo management game with a morality system? I'm definitely interested, and the potential for evil looks like it includes using your alligators to make handbags, your chickens to make drumsticks, and your pigs to make bacon. I don't know about you, but the game's premise has me hooked! I'll be looking forward to this one when it launches on Steam. In the meantime, if you want to know more about the game, you can check their official website here. |
| The Golden Wii For Queen Elizabeth II Is Now For Sale Posted: 03 May 2021 02:53 PM PDT
It's likely that she didn't receive the game console. A publisher commissioned the creation of a golden Nintendo Wii and had it delivered to Queen Elizabeth II as part of a publicity stunt back in 2009. Now, twelve years later, the luxurious console is available on eBay for $300,000. The story behind that eBay listing is that the golden Wii landed in the hands of Donny Fillerup, one of the guys behind the website consolevariations.com. Fillerup is now selling some items from his collection as he is looking to buy a new home. Image via Kotaku |
| Would You Drink Coffee with Cheese in It? Posted: 03 May 2021 02:53 PM PDT
Atlas Obscura introduces us to kaffeost, which is a traditional drink from the Sami people of northern Scandinavia. Place a cube of juustoleipä, which is a type of cheese often made from reindeer milk, into the bottom of a wooden mug. Pour in coffee, which melts the cheese. Drink the mixture or use a spoon to scoop the cheesy mixture into your mouth. |
| <i>Back to the Future</i> Not Being Planned as a Trilogy Is What Makes It Great Posted: 03 May 2021 02:53 PM PDT
In the 21st century, any studio planning a summer blockbuster is looking to build a franchise. If it's a hit, there will be sequels down the road. It wasn't always so. George Lucas did not have nine movies planned out when Star Wars premiered in 1977. Today's fans have valid criticism about how the final Star Wars trilogy should have been planned better, but that has nothing to do with what happened in the 1970s. And that sort of criticism has affected discussions of the 1985 movie Back to the Future.
But of course it did, and there were two sequels that only made a trilogy in hindsight. Read how Back to the Future came about and how it ended up with two more movies at Den of Geek. -via Metafilter |

What should do you with any extra Cadbury Creme Eggs around your home? If, for some unknowable reason, you have not eaten all of them, Difford's Guide, a cocktail website, suggests making a drink. It's a quite complex process. You'll need a week to properly season the ingredients, which include vanilla vodka, Licor 43 liqueur, white creme de cacao, Advocaat liquer, half-and-half, a vanilla pod, and, of course a creme egg. -via In Love with Drinks |

The Barcelona-based digital design studio Six N. Five worked with industrial designer Arthur de Menenzes to take three common computer error messages, such as the Blue Screen of Death, and turn them into chairs. I'd hesitate to use one as a computer desk chair, lest I jinx my computer.
