In an effort to be creative and fun, this team of looney-bin’s decided to manually change a digital clock made of wood for 24 hours. Sure it looks cool, and I’m sure you’d think it was pretty sweet if you were on the project until 5 minutes into it… Then you’d be like “God I hate my job!”. Okay someone do the math for me please, how many boards did they move in total?

Its not overly long, but this article requires your attention! Written by a dude who lived with a couple horses for a while, it’s about his distaste for the 4 legged beasts that nearly all 12 year old girls want… next to me of course. Hey! I’m only a perv if I satisfy their lustfull cravings… Read the full article here.

Okay so I can’t be certain that the kid is 4 or not but he looks like it, and if I’ve ever been good at something it’s determining if someone is under age or not… and this kid definitely is! The kid can barely speak English, yet he plays the ukulele better than I ever will! (little bastard). It’s a great song that he’s singing though, so hit the jump for the actual music video by Jason Mraz too…

Thanks to vivi for this video!

It suggests that you use wooden skewers as ammo on this badass office crossbow, but I’m totally bending some large paperclips right now to make into darts. Too bad my assistant is on holiday’s for the next month… I’d totally have her make 6 dozen of those things! Hit the jump for the full instructions on how to make your own badass crossbow for the office…Its just an excerpt from John Austin’s must-read new book Mini Weapons of Mass Destruction.

I saw a couple nights ago that there was a new website in town that just had to be shared… Basically the site lets you upload a picture of your friend and then watch them get brutally murdered by an assassin of your choosing… sweet! Now I apologize for it not being in English, but basically its french for KillYourFriend.com (or so I’ve been told). The menu’s are really easy to figure out and honestly you don’t require the knowledge of the french language if you have 2 parts greater than a basket of poutine in your head… wait, what did that mean? It does require you to use an email address as well, but you can put a fake one and just wait the extra 45 seconds until it loads the video.

Check out the video I set up of Tiger Wood’s getting snipered down from a half mile away with the biggest gun I’ve seen since, I last flexed my arms.

Okay I’m going to use the snow storm we had over the weekend as an excuse for the few posts I had last week… make sense? Probably not, but let’s go with it anyway! Calgary got hit with one of the largest blizzards we’ve had in a while, last Friday. More than 1,000 accidents were reported in the first 24 hours of the storm across the city and with winds of up to 70km/h, the snow blew into drifts higher than most cars in places. Check out the full picture archive that reader Bill sent me after the break.

Thanks for the pictures Bill!

Despite my Girlfriend really not liking cats, I have to post this video anyway… It is clearly the cutest cat that ever did live!

Enjoy

Thanks to Tom for the link.

MLIT: wtf does that stand for you ask? It’s the latest site like FML… except its all about Twilight. Users of the site discuss how much their own lives are like that of the characters of Twilight. Here’s some of my favourites:

Today I asked my boyfriend if he would hold ice to his lips for a minute before he kissed me, so I could pretend I was kissing Edward. He did. MLIT

Today I woke up from a nap on my girlfriends couch only to realize that she had covered me in Twilight body glitter while I was asleep. FML+MLIT

Let me get something through to you: Vampire’s aren’t real, and if they were, they’d get owned to shit by any warewolf!!! Even if he did have Parkinsons. Oh Snap! See what I did there? was a little Teen Wolf / Michael J Fox joke. gah! nevermind. FML!

Sometimes videos are just so awesome, we go back and watch them again and again… Like the Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny, or the Powerthirst video. Well the above embeded video has earned a place in my heart very close to the perfect video status. I posted this video once before, but it was on my previous blogging engine and has since been retired… so I felt that if this site was to contain everything awesome, it should contain this video too. Here’s a repost of the Little Red Riding Hood video.

Hey, here’s a pretty sweet video. Quite a few lyrics worth catching, so you may need to view it a couple times. Not me though, I understood all of it before it was even done playing, cause I’m awesome like that. At least that’s what my girlfriend always tells me. OH YEAH!
