You won’t actually find the Noah’s Ark burger on any BK menu, but only because the king must have a thing against deliciousness. Or, I dunno, 10,000 calorie menu items . Whatever the case, the Noah’s Ark burger consists of two of every kind of patty BK has to offer: beef, veggie, chicken and fish, plus bacon. Can you say dangerously delicious?! I can, it’s spelled H-E-A-R-T A-T-T-A-C-K. Gotdamn I want one. But with more cheese. CHEESE NOAH NEEDS MORE CHEESE. Hit the jump for a couple more shots (including the receipt with requisite diet soda), a video of a guy pounding the thing, and a link to even more pics of the Biblical-ness.

This is the music video for Chicago-based OK Go’s ‘This Too Shall Pass’, which consists of an unbelievable 3:53 long Rube Goldberg machine. You have to watch it. I mean, you don’t haaave to, you’ll just miss out if you don’t. Then, at the water cooler tomorrow when we’re all talking about the awesome music video we saw you’ll just stand there looking stupid with your hands in your pockets. You’ll make a comment about a Lady Gaga video. We will point and laugh. You will cry. We won’t feel bad. Hit the jump for four making-of videos.

NOTE : Video AFTER THE JUMP is NSFW due to thong. I told you it was a special bonus — AND I DON’T LIE! This is a video of Robin Williams on ‘Late Night with Jimmy Fallon’ talking about getting “OWNED” by 10 year-olds playing Call of Duty and naming his daughter after Princess Zelda . Respect (I loved you in Mrs. Doubtfire!). And, since it’s Friday (and I feel kinda bad about the Lara Croft thing), I included a video of a girl in a thong crushing a watermelon between her thighs that I found on the same site after watching the Robin Williams video. The sound alone was enough to give me the chills. Just like fingernails on a chalkboard, except a woman crushing a melon with her hooha. Hit it for the watermelon crushing fright-fest.
This is a stunning 30,000 piece LEGO replica of the Star Wars Droid Control Ship. It took builder Paul Yperman two years and a small fortune in LEGO bricks to construct. However, it did not take a pyrotechnics license. Boooooooooooooooo!! FIREWORKS SHIP NEEDS MORE FIREWORKS. Some years ago I walked into a second hand book shop and I bought a Star Wars Cross sections book. In the center stood the Droid Control Ship. It blew my mind and I knew I had to build it. I used almost 30000 parts. Lots in the center globe that I build with the aid of a building program that I found on the web. 3500 tiles to cover the outside structure. Lots of Technic parts to make the inside frame, so I could move, lift and take it apart without breaking it. The technic parts are joined left/ right and top / bottom, resulting in a firm and solid almost selfcarrying structure. First of all, who the hell parts with a Star Wars cross-section book? CAUSE THEY BETTER HAVE DIED. Secondly, I’m serious, who would do that? That’s like sneaking original, unopened He-Man figures into Toys R Us and putting them back on the shelf. You gotta be crazy! Hit the jump for a bunch more of the amazing amazingness, as well as the link to higher-res shots.

This is a slab of bacon . In cake form. I know, I thought it was eel too. Anyway, I’m gonna have to admit I’d have a hard time driving that into me. Mostly because there’s no steering wheel or pedals! *zing!* How about airline food , amirite? First time I’ve ever had to use a barf bag in the back of my pants . Thank you, thank you — you all have been great, don’t forget to tip your bartenders, I’m gonna steal their tip jars after the show. Woops — did I say that out loud? I have a gun. Hit the jump for an eerily realistic Spam cake and an unbelievable bacon & eggs one.
A copy of Action Comics #1, best known for featuring the first appearance of Superman , recently sold for a staggering $1 million at auction . That’s one rich old virgin! Kidding — kidding — hookers count. They said it couldn’t be done. They said that no comic book–no matter how rare–would ever sell for $1,000,000. This week, they were proven wrong. And in the midst of a recession, no less! Only about 100 copies Action Comics #1 remain in existence, and of those 100, only two have received a grading of 8.0 (Very Fine) or higher. This particular book is one of them, making it among the rarest of the rare. Up until now, the record-holder was another Action Comics #1, this one with a grading of 6.0. It sold on ComicConnect.com for $317,200 in 2009. Daaaaamn! I wish I was at a place in my life where I could drop a cool mill on a comic. Cause right now I’m not even comfortable dropping 89¢ on a Beefy 5-Layer Burrito from Taco Bell. However, I am comfortable dropping trou for painting classes. You think about it.* *The GW cannot be held responsible for playing with himself or winking at the artists during a sitting (I get bored and my mind wonders) Auction Site Thanks to JerkBoxJoJo and Tyler, who don’t collect comics books, they collect superheroes. Jesus, that must be one hell of a fortified basement.
Granted we’ve seen LEGO Mindstorm sets people have built to solve Rubik’s Cubes in the past, but never anything that moves with the speed and dexterity as CubeStorm CubeStorm Cubestorm . Whoa, nice echo effect. Kidding, I’m hiding in the closet (my mom’s trying to drag me to a doctor’s appointment). The Worlds Fastest Lego Mindstorms RCX Speedcubing Robot. Built entirely from lego elements with a lego web camera to scan the faces of the cube, The solve engine (algorithm) running on the computer is provided by the incredible “Cube Explorer “software which also provides the colour recognition required to determine the exact location of each coloured square. Thanks to Herbert Kociemba for making his work available to anyone wishing to use it! Respect! “Cube Explorer” has the ability to produce very fast solutions to a successfully scanned cube, usually around 20 face turns! Doesn’t sound a lot , but it is believed that around 20 turns are enough to solve ANY 3×3x3 cube combination. I’m still working on “CubeStormer” I would like to see it reach sub-10 and feel it’s close to that. but reliability begins to suffer when you start to push things just that bit too far….. You know what else begins to suffer when you start to push robotics too far? Humanity. Just sayin’, you ever seen that movie Terminator ? I haven’t — I’ve got enough nightmare fodder! Youtube Thanks to Osku, Logisticz, Gir, Ringo, Raúl, meeotch, Frank, james, Bolleke, PrestickNinja, raficus and Clint, who would have disassembled that sucker and built a sweet-ass LEGO castle.
