Iron Penis

This seems like the kind of thing that should have one of those, “trained professionals, don’t try this at home” kiind of disclaimers.

On a side-note, could VidMax come up with an uglier player. I thought YouTube was bad.

The Idea Generator

The Idea Generator

Have you been wanting to invent the next big thing, but just haven’t come up with a winning idea? The Idea Generator is exactly what you need. You can adjust the words individually, or just hit the center button and have ideas handed to you.

Looks like I’ll be making a “scary rubber animal”. You’d buy that, right?

Lego Leia?

Lego Princess Leia

I think this is hilarious! I had no idea that Lego actually made a Slave-Girl Princess Leia figure. I’m actually pretty surprised that Lego went as far as to paint cleavage on her.

Ninja’s Ultimate Movie Pitch

I watched this back when it first came out and thought it was hilarious. I meant to post it here, but totally forgot about it until I saw it again on Laughing Squid today.

It starts out a little slow, but gets better and better.

Giant Lego Man Found in Sea

Giant Lego man on the beach

Giant Lego Man Found in Sea

“Staff at a drinks stand in the Netherlands resort of Zandvoort were amazed to find a 2.5-meter (8-foot) Lego man washed up on the beach Tuesday. It was rescued from the water and placed upright on the beach, to the delight of children. Nobody had any idea where the smiling Lego figure had come from, but there was speculation it might have come over from England, while suspicious pundits on the Web site Reddit feared it might be a Trojan horse “full of small Lego people about to attack Holland.” However the ungrammatical slogan on the figure’s chest, “No real than you are,” led via a Google search to www.egoleonard.com, a Dutch Web site which appears to belong to an artist or art collective. Perhaps the mysterious figure is just another work of environmental art.”

Alien Abduction Lamp

Alien Abduction Lamp

I oh so want this Alien Abduction Lamp. Unfortunately, it’s not quite available yet, and Anne Marie would probably go nuts if I tried to bring it into our house. But, I can dream, right?
