Looks Depressing: Swiss Drive-In Sex Booths

car-sex-booths.jpg Apparently prostitution in Zurich, Switzerland has gotten so out of hand the police have decided to install private drive-in sex booths so the less perverse citizens of the city don't have to witness anybody getting a midday BJ in their Volkswagen. Not even kidding.
The idea itself is adopted from German cities like Essen and Cologne, and will be a way for prostitution to continue on behind closed, uh, doors. The boxes will serve as quickie drive-throughs, so-to-speak, and will free up city streets from unsightly acts that haunt Zurich residents whose homes overlook the city's red light district. "They get up to all sorts in broad daylight - and we're sick to death of looking at it," one resident told the U.K.'s Metro.
First of all, how're you gonna live in the red light district and complain about it? I thought it meant lots of stoplights, honest! Secondly, you better believe I'm setting up a prosty detailing service in the compound. HJ and a wax, $30!

OMG This Ice Cream Is Making Me Sooo Hot!: Ice Cream Designed To Get You In The Mood

sexy-ice-cream.jpg I knew ice cream could make your lips sticky, but did you know it can also make you amorous? It can, and not just if you're licking it off a stranger's balls with Magic Shell topping, although we've all been there and it does work.
An ice cream which gets you in the mood for sex has been created in the UK. The Sex Pistol, dubbed 'vice cream', will be available from London store Selfridges when pop-up ice cream boutique The Icecreamists opens in September. The cold treat has ingredients including gingko, biloba, arginine and guarana as well as a shot of the intoxicating La Fee Absinthe. "the perfect apres shopping treat. Just one Sex Pistol will leave you feeling energized and confident - but please, don't pester the staff!" The ice cream will only be served to customers over 18 and each consumer is only allowed one in every visit.
Interesting concept, but know what else will get you ready for sex? ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING. Sexy Ice Cream [femalefirst] Thanks to AndyMac, who knows any food is sexy food. Spinach salad? BOOM -- pants are off and he's ready for action.

Whom Shall You Telegram?: Old-Timey Steampunk Ghostbusters Commercial

steampunk-ghostbusters.jpg This is a commercial for The League of S.T.E.A.M. (Supernatural and Troublesome Ectoplasmic Apparitional Management), a Victorian-looking ghost elimination company. I thought it was pretty cute. If you like what you see, they have a series of shorts on Youtube of them catching spirits or whatever the hell a bunch of steampunky ghostbusters do. And speaking of catching spirits -- toss me an airplane bottle and LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED! Happy 4th of July weekend everybody! Hit it for the video. Youtube via Steampunk Ghostbusters [buzzfeed] Thanks to Erica, who crossed the streams once on a dare and realized it doesn't do anything but make it rain Skittles. Best news EVER!

Picture Of A Nuke Detonated In Outerspace

space-nukes.jpg This is a recently declassified photo from 1962 of the only nuke ever detonated in space by humans. But what about aliens? They detonate those things all the f***ing time. I'm talking like fireworks on the 4th of July. I know, I know -- that tie-in was the shit.
Why, pray tell, did the government want to launch nukes into space? Well, apparently they wanted to test a few theories. The plan was to send rockets hundreds of miles up, higher than the Earth's atmosphere, and then detonate nuclear weapons to see: a) If a bomb's radiation would make it harder to see what was up there (like incoming Russian missiles!); b) If an explosion would do any damage to objects nearby; c) If the Van Allen belts would move a blast down the bands to an earthly target (Moscow! for example); and -- most peculiar -- d) if a man-made explosion might "alter" the natural shape of the [Earth's magnetic] belts.
Um....I don't like the sound of any of that. It sounds like the kind of experiment I'd conduct. Listen: some serious shit's probably gonna go down and we all might die, but I already bought the supplies so we're doin' it anyway. Scott -- put down the booze, you're in charge of the explosives. Image of the only nuke ever detonated in space [dvice] Thanks to FDSY, who allegedly has the only real picture of the Death Star exploding. Oh really, then what's THIS?! Huh? Ha, that is my penis isn't it? Well....what do you think?

But It Looks So Cool!: The Fridge Of The Future, Today Tomorrow Probably Never

gel-fridge-1.jpg Looks cool. Get it? Refrigerator joke! Anyway, this is Yuriy Dmitriev's conceptual fridge of the future. OMG it's made out of Slimer.
So, what is that stuff? The Electrolux blog -- which lists Dmitriev's concept as one of 25 semifinalists for this year's Electrolux Design Lab contest -- describes it as a "biopolymer gel," or more specifically a "non-sticky, odorless gel." You simply plunge whatever you want to keep fresh into the mass of your Bio Robot fridge and it'll stay where you left it until you come back.
I, for one, am all for it (minus the name). And not just because I want to mush my penis in there and pretend I'm makin' love to the Ice Queen, but you know I'm gonna. And she better not burn my hotdog the way she does the ice cream. Hit the jump for one more shot explaining the thing. gel-fridge-2.jpg In the future, refrigerators will store food in gross-looking gel [dvice]

Peoples World Of Warcraft Avatars In Real Life

wow-avatars.jpg Note: Video is after the jump because the background music is kinda depressing and I didn't want to bring everybody down on the main page. This is a video documenting the lives of four World of Warcraft players as portrayed by their avatars as the go about their day-to-day activities. It's really artfully done. Not unlike the nude shots I just had taken. Kidding, those were pure smut.
This is short film directed by Gavin Kelly we worked on a while ago called "Avatar Days". What makes this one special is the fact that it was filmed, vfx'ed and comped all in just 4 days. It was made as part of the "4 day Film" catagory in the Darklight Film Festival. It follows 4 MMORPG players taking about their online persona's. As they tell their stories we see them go about their everyday lives against the mundane backdrop of city life...but as their Avatars.
Cool, now they just need to make a movie about me and my avatar. Just sayin', you ever seen a Link lookalike stare at a computer 14 hours a day? SUMMER. F***ING. BLOCKBUSTER. Hit it for the video. Vimeo Thanks to Cormac, who was part of the 3D animation team. Good job, Cormac (now turn me into a minotaur).

What Do You Mean You Got Drunk And Ate It?!: White Castle Burger Scented Candle

burger-candle.jpg Did you know it was hamburger month? Neither did I. But apparently White Castle has licensed burger-scented candles to celebrate the occasion. That's cool. Granted not as cool as the fact I live just a hop, skip and jump from the In-N-Out on Sunset Blvd., but SUCK IT I EAT THOSE BURGERS ALL THE TIME AND I KNOW YOU'RE JEALOUS! Plus I made friends with the employees so sometimes they'll let me come in after hours and huff the grill. GET IN MUH BRAIN, BURGER FUMES!
The candle's "steam grilled on a bed of onions" scent was created by Nest Fragrances, and the limited-edition candle comes in a ceramic holder designed to mimic White Castle's hamburger packaging, the fast food chain said this week. "When I think of truly superior aromas, I think of the aroma of a freshly grilled White Castle hamburger -- life just doesn't get better than that," Laura Slatkin, founder of Nest Fragrances, said in a prepared statement. "We have captured that exact essence in our White Castle candle!"
I've heard the things actually smell like shit but I can neither confirm nor deny those allegations personally. But I can confirm that I'm going to In-N-Out tonight so SUCK IT AGAIN SUCKERS, YOU KNOW YOU'RE JEALOUS AS A BRIDESMAID! DON'T HATE THE PLAYA HATE THE GAMESTOP FOR ONLY GIVING ME $22 FOR ALL MY TRADE-INS. Product Site (currently sold out) and White Castle unveils burger-scented candle [cnnmoney] Thanks to eileen, who's holding out for a McRib-scented candle. Me too, eileen, me too.

Because I Wanna Be Fatter: A USB Microwave

usb-microwave.jpg This is another conceptual USB-powered microwave. I have no idea if the thing is even feasible because I don't understand anything about electricity except sticking a butter knife in a power outlet didn't give me "the most epic boner" like my friend said it would AND I TRIED TWICE. USB Microwave Concept Still Falls Short [ohgizmo]

Whee: Pop Your Booty With Booty Pop Panties

Now I've known about Booty Pop panties for awhile now because I have the imitation Fredrick's of Hollywood ones, but apparently they're making their rounds on the internet again. Because, let's face it: we all want that ultimate, shapely, lifted booty. Unfortunately, this booty was destined for sloopy. So Booty Pop panties have built-in butt-pads that make your butt look better in jeans and freakish without them (girl, you got alien-butt). Honestly, I'm only posting this because I liked how many times they said booty in the commercial. It was at least a million. BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY BOOTY ROCKIN' EVERYWHERE! Kill me now. Seriously, I won't try to stop you. Especially not....WITH THIS LASER BLASTER! *pew pew* I win. Youtube Thanks to G33k, Ishbo, Carly and Ryan, who all have naturally poppin' booties.

Omegle: User Has One-Sided Pokemon Battle

omegle-pokemon-1.jpg Somebody with way too much time on their hands recently had a one-sided Pokemon battle with a girl on Omegle. It's moderately humorous, but there are a fair amount of words to read if you're not into that. And if you're not into that, you're probably not reading this. Dick. Haha, you didn't even read that. Jerk. I did it again! Hit the jump to read the rest of the battle. omegle-pokemon-2.jpg Omegle Pokemon Battle [funnyjunk] Thanks to Larissa, who
