WTF

New Catagory for the CN Site: WTF

wtfbubble-2
Yup, I created a new category here for some of the strangest stuff I come across on the new. Here are a few things I have come across (this is just a quick post, so I may repost more about these individually later):

  • Edible Anus: Yup someone took a mold of someone ass, and then made chocolates out of the mold… Seriously, WTF!
  • Images you should not masturbate to: That’s right, a book packed with images you should not masturbate to… WTF!
  • Bacon Condoms: Yes, condoms that look like bacon, and as an added bonus, J&D’s baconlube™ ultra premium water based meat flavoured personal lubricant has been generously applied inside and out for an even more hot pork experience.

Portal: No Escape – Live Action Film

As many of you know I am a great fan of the Portal game series (Still working on finishing Portal 2 single player).  So when something like this comes along, the hair on the back of my neck stands up on end.  I think a full length motion picture would be an awesome idea.  Take a look at this short film by Dan Trachtenberg:…

I want this for my Home Office – The Emperor

Several years ago I came across the coolest office setup on Engadget.com but when I wanted to make a post about it lost year, I couldn;t seem to find it on their site.  Today I found it again on HiConsumption.com.

The Emperor is probably one of the most awesome setups I have seen for a computer desk/chair/build.  It comes in 2 different modles, and get this, its Canadian.  Their head office in Quebec, QC, qhich is about a 2 hour drive from my home in Montreal.  If I ever get a home office again, this would be the rig I would go with, if I could afford it the 200 series model.…

Man Crates, ’nuff said.

main_sprite
I just came across this site today and I have to say, I know what I want for my B-Day next week. I want a Zombie Annihilation Crate from ManCrates.com. Knives, Duct Tape, and Spam, 3 essentials for every Zombie Apocalypses, and it even includes a survival guide.

They also have an assortment of other Man Crates for everyone from Athletes to Carnivores to Beer Lovers (Check out the Personalized Barware crate). And the prices aren’t half bad. My only concern would be trying to shipping the Zombie survival crates across the border (As I am sure it originates in the states).…

Camping Season is upon us

Well, its pretty much summer now, and in less than 20 days it will officially be summer (June 21st, Summer solstice). Now one thing I love about summer, and I miss doing as I have not done it in years, is camping. When I was younger my family and I would travel across Canada camping along the way as we traveled to Edmonton to visit my grandparents and aunts. One time I remember us getting stuck in a windstorm, so strong it almost took our tent, with us in it. Thankfully there was a cement building which housed the washrooms, we ducked in there for a few hours till the storm passed.…

Super Yacht Adastra – Awesomeness!

Well its rare that I make more than one post in a day, but today I just feel like posting my unique finds on the net. While browsing Hi Consumption I came across what I would consider one hell of a dream boat. I have always been fascinated with Super Yachts, I don’t know what it is about them, maybe their huge size, luxurious rooms, amazing design, but what ever it is they have always captivated me, and this one is no different.

The Adastra is the creation John Shuttleworth, a Sussex-based boat designer. Now after looking at his other designs, I have to say he has out done himself this time.…

Hows your reaction time?

Hopefully its good if you wanna get Lumigrid’s LED Bicycle projector. I came across this over at one of the sites I frequent called Hi Consumption.
Lumigrids-LED-Bicycle-Projector-1
Now at first glance, it looks like it’s a really cool idea, for those who bike slowly… The principle it that it projects a grid on the ground showing you the terrain that’s coming up, which reminds me of almost every golf computer game I have played, when you get to the green and it shows you the slopping grid. Now obviously meant for night rides (where you cannot really see what the ground looks like in front of you) the idea is great, however not everyone reaction time is.…

Crazy Sinkhole in Latvia

While browsing some of the many sites I like to visit I came a cross an article about a crazy whirlpool/sinkhole that was discovered in Dviete Parish, Latvia.  After watching the video, I was amazed at how much debris the hole took in without stopping.  It looks to be at the bank of a river in the middle of its spring thaw.  The hole seems to suck in everything that goes near it, even large sheets of ice.  Watch the video bellow to see it in action:
