Know Before You Mow: I agree with the message though I think it’s needlessly complicated on this site. I’ll boil it down for you: stay away from rapidly spinning blades.

Christian Fellowship School Class of ‘96 Senior Prank: cups of water—that’s inspired. They weren’t too bright, though, since there were only 12 seniors at the school.

Fun Shop - Confetti Cannons: I like the pocket model. I’d have to find a supplier of bulk confetti, though, to become this generation’s Rip Torn.

Improv Everywhere - Look Up More: this would be one of the few reasons to live in New York. You may also want to check out the Virgin Megastore Mission, which is similarly amazing.

Lotte World: Korea’s newest theme park. (I would’ve put South, but who would honestly believe that this place exists in North?) Looks like a rip-off of Disneyland without all the licensed characters—though this doodad looks more bad-ass than anything Disney would do.

Dog Condoms: my BS-detector is off the charts, but who would’ve believed that people would make (and other people would purchase) water for dogs. I’ve got a lot of questions about this: a) couldn’t the female dog just go on the pill and b) what pet owner in their right mind would actually attempt to sheath their dog’s willy? {via}

Crazy Kent: Kent, who may in fact be crazy, likes to have his picture taken while he’s in garbage cans. Apparently, he’s “found a way to show that anyone who has an idea, a goal, and the motivation to acheive success, no matter how ridiculous the plan, it can be done!” Indeed. {via}

Edelweiss Pirates: like the swing kids, only without the dancing and the grooving. It’s amazing that they lasted as long as they did, given that they killed several Hitler Youth leaders and the head of the Cologne Gestapo. {via}

“Student receives semen-frosted brownies”: I had a similar incident in high school where my friends put cream cheese in my learner’s permit and the oil erased all of the writing on it. I just got frosted, though, so I guess I’m not that good at revenge. {via}

“Las Vegas Mayor Makes Controversial Gin Comment”: here’s the money quote: “After reading to the class, one student asked Mayor Goodman if he could take one thing with him on a deserted island, what would it be. The Mayor replied that it would be a bottle of gin. And when a student later asked Mayor Goodman what one of his hobbies was, the Mayor said ‘drinking.’” {via}

Luther Burger: scroll down to see the Hamdog. It’s a “hot dog wrapped in a beef patty that’s deep fried, covered with chili, cheese and onions, and served on a hoagie bun topped with a fried egg and two fistfuls of fries.” Ugh, I just had a little reflux thinking about it.
