The sound the lollipop makes is priceless. Watch, it’s only 18 seconds long.

I don’t know how they do it, but some people manage to sleep through their alarms every morning, regardless of how loud or irritating it is. Take it from someone who’s lived with a sister who sets alarms for four in the morning because she needs to cram for a test… only to sleep through it and wake the rest of the household at such an ungodly hour.
This guy, however… maybe he hasn’t had much luck with alarms, because he requested his wife to slap him awake every morning for fifteen days. I don’t know why he chose such a painful wake-up call, but it’s hilarious all the same.

When the hail starts falling, you know what to do: run into the house or seek shelter elsewhere because those hails of hail are painful when they hit. Apparently, this man from Argentina missed the circular and values his car more than his well-being. Because when the pellets of frozen rain began to fall, he jumped right on the roof of a car (that’s presumably his) in order to protect it from the unforgiving hail.
He also makes a complete fool of himself in the process. Hit the break to check out the video and see for yourself.

Spoiler: you get a lot of cylindrical ice.
You should still watch the video even though you know the plot twist, because it’s like those videos showing a bunch of clowns coming out of a Beetle; it’s just never ending.
And it’s being passed around online so we think it’s worth a quick look.

It’s tough to be a fast food drive-thru worker these days. Not because of the usual pressures that comes with the job or the constant stream of irate customers you might have to deal with on a daily basis. No, the workers you’ll see in the hilarious clip above were subjected to a different kind of torture stress when they got ready to hand out some Happy Meals to an invisible (or otherwise non-existent) driver.
The prank was thought up by ‘magician prankster’ Rahat and the reactions he got from the fast food workers were priceless. When you’re done watching this video but are aching for more laughs, then you might find this sneezing headless guy prank that we posted a few months ago interesting. Enjoy!

Holy jumping Mexican beans, this video is great! No, it’s got not a single thing to do with tech, other than hey, it’s on the Interwebs. But we think our fellow geeks will appreciate Paul Vlahos’ talents. He’s able to do spot-on impersonations of Cleveland, Peter Griffin, Herbert the Pervert, Stewie and a few others. But that’s not all. He has them singing Chris Brown’s ‘Look At Me Now’. It’s freaking sweet, as Peter would say.
No really, it is. Watch this vid.
I lost it at Joe’s part.

You know as well as me that we all wanted this video to be the real deal. I mean, come on: tiny supercooled toy ships racing around in a track made from superconducting magnets? Heck, it’s a fact that most of us would be trying to find a buyer for our kidneys to get our hands on this. It even seemed more plausible after watching that quantum levitation video that made the rounds last October. But the truth is, folks, this video is probably as fake as the late Steve Jobs’ kind heart (too soon?). For one, Sony is coming out with a new Wipeout game for the PlayStation Vita next month. See that big WipeOut logo in the middle of the track? Yeah… And that “Japan Institute of Science and Technology”? No such thing! It’s called “Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology!” Also, the copyright? “All rights reserved belong to Sony Entertainment and SCE Studio Liverpool.” Finally, look at that smoke closely: it’s CG.
I got to admit it’s a cool video, but it’s nothing more than viral marketing in the making. I’m not saying this stuff won’t exist one day, but we’re just not there yet.
