• Here\’s a timelapse video of a group of Germans building a massive Lego Millennium Falcon. The set has 5000 pieces and it looks like it took 7 Germans almost 3 hours to build it. I\’m tempted to order one but I don\’t know where I\’d put once I was finished.

  • Before you see The Darjeeling Limited tomorrow, download Hotel Chevalier for free from the iTunes store. This short film is a prologue to the main movie and stars Jason Schwartzman and Natalie Portman.

  • Creepy soap shaped like baby hands. Is it wrong to use these to wash your private parts?

  • House on the freeway now in Caltrans\’ hands

    By the time the 20-foot-wide structure reached downtown, the wheels reportedly were coming loose from the trailer. Richardson made emergency repairs and lumbered onward, only to come to a halt again in Hollywood.

    That\’s where his house, built in 1950, struck the 14-foot, 10-inch Western Avenue bridge. The impact sheared off the top of the roof. A SigAlert was called when it took hours to free the house from the bridge. The house was eventually parked 3 1/2 miles up the road near Barham Boulevard, where the shoulder was wide enough for the structure to be out of traffic lanes.

    I love how there\’s already graffitti on it. There\’s probably a stack of phonebooks on the porch, a landscaping flyer hanging from the doorknob and a Pennysaver in the mailbox too.

  • I probably shouldn\’t be surprised at this, but I am: in Japan vending machines sell canned bread. All you need is a can of baked beans and you can make yourself a fart sandwich.

  • 9 ugly buildings from around the world, including that psychotic triangular hotel in North Korea. Number 6 looks like the building where the Jedi council meets on Coruscant, if it were built by commies.

  • Oh man, this is so cool: scenes from the Simpsons and their reference movies. My favorite\’s the Scorpio episode where Homer trips James Bond.

  • \”Hey beautiful…the back door\’s open\”

    The wife of former Australian cricket champion Shane Warne says their marriage reconciliation is over after he mistakenly sent her an incriminating text message.

    As Callahan got the couple\’s three children ready for school in Melbourne, a text dropped into the inbox of her mobile phone, she told New Idea magazine.

    \”Hey beautiful, I\’m just talking to my kids, the back door\’s open,\” the message from Warne said.

    Is she positive he was cheating? Maybe he was just cruising for gay sex?

  • This replica storm trooper helmet is badass. I\’d wear it all the time. You know how some guys walk around with cowboy hats on? This would be my cowboy hat.

  • Build Your Own Chicago – Postcard papercraft models of Chicago landmarks. The details printed on the cards look really good. I don\’t have a joke for these cause I don\’t really know anything about Chicago. Uh…I think I can see Ferris Bueller in the Wrigley Field model?
