This is the impressive 4-ton steampunk train barbeque grill built by Ryazan Deulino. The barbeque features three separate cooking bays and a brick-lined furnace. Perfect for grilling up some of my famous choo-choo chicken. Okay fine, there's no such thing as my famous choo-choo chicken recipe. If we're being honest, I'm not really famous for anything. Although one time at a friend's b-day I managed to burp half the Happy Birthday song and people talked about it for a few days, so there's that. Hit the jump for a couple more shots of the impressiveness. Thanks to my pal Terry, who would look great tied to the railroad tracks with a train barreling towards and with no gun-slinging hero in sight.

Where there is ganj, munchies will follow. Kandy Care’s Medical Cannabis Cotton Candy combines the entire experience. This is a video of Youtubers who go by the name of The Bud Master and Bud Jesus. Before they even partake in the Cannabis Cotton Candy, they already seem like they have… partaken in something. I’m gonna guess marijuana! One problem with mixing MJ with sweets is: how will you know if you’re experiencing a sugar rush or if the herb’s finally kickin’ in? You may never know! Jk, you will totally know. Trust me. One time I got so high I couldn’t even play video games. Yeah, it was bad. I almost called my mom! But instead I tried to order a pizza delivery from a Chinese restaurant. I got blacklisted!

This is a real life anime girl, Anastasiya Shpagina. She pulls some serious make-up sorcery (NOT photoshoppery) to appear just like an anime character. Kinda reminds me of Valeria Lukyanova, the real life Barbie girl we covered a few months back. Ooookay and here is a picture of the two of them together. Both ladies are from the Ukraine so, naturally, I’m starting to wonder: what the f*** is in their water? Anastasiya was kind enough to provide a video tutorial of her make up process, so you can also be a real life anime girl, too. Wheeee! Uh, I mean… ohhhh hiiiiii so kawaii!

Burger King Japan likes to walk on the cray cray side. Case in point, the Black Burger they cray-cranked out recently. Now they’re back with the BK Pumpkin, a burger topped with fried kabocha pumpkin slices, lettuce, bacon and a creamy nut sauce. That sounds like a pretty strange combo. Still, do you think that’s gonna keep me from giving it a go? Nope! The fact that I don’t live in Japan. THAT is what’s stopping me. Damn you, Pacific Ocean! Thanks to the Royal Angel King for the tip. He told me he personally knows the Royal Angel Burger King. Cool! Gimme his autograph?

You know what the main problem with guinea pigs is? They're vulnerable in battle. Thankfully, eBay seller mightys0x in selling this custom made guinea pig sized scale mail. 100% of the proceeds from the sale go to Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue, which is very noble of the seller and ties into the whole chain mail thing perfectly because like, knights and nobility and all that. That's not a stretch you're a stretch. The scale-mail is made from polished steel scales and steel rings. It was painstakingly "woven" by me over several weeks in an effort to better prepare my guinea pig Lucky for the dangers of the modern world. The helmet was purchased at a Renaissance Faire later as it was the perfect finishing touch. Lucky passed away this weekend, and no longer requires his noble suit of armor. In his honor and memory, any money from this auction (after Ebay fees) will go to the Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue in Virginia. Lucky was adopted from the organization, and they're a fantastic…

This is the Treadwall, a vertical treadmill by Brewer’s Ledge. It’s not for running, it’s for climbing. Orrrrr just run on it for all I care. It’s your life! The climbing area measures about 8 feet high, 4 feet wide. The thing’s got adjustable inclines and declines so you can really challenge yourself. Go hard! Me? I like to take it easy. I’m talking like, laying down and taking a nap. While this thing seems waaaaay cooler than a regular horizontal treadmill, it also seems like the chances of experiencing a humiliating situation that gets caught on camera and sent in to America’s Funniest Videos are also waaaaay higher. And that’s really saying something because treadmill mishaps already make up nearly half of the clips on that show. The other half? Dads getting hit in the nuts and old people falling down.

Last year Neorowear brought us Necomini ears, those adorable brainwave-controlled kitty cat ears that convey emotion. Now they’re back with a tail to match! It’s called Shippo and has a neuro sensor that reads your heartbeat and brainwaves. Your fluffy tail will react based on your mood, like wagging when you’re happy or going between your legs when you’re being shamed for pooping on the rug. But that’s not all! Oh no, it also tags your results and location on an app to share with social media sites. You know, so I’ll know whether to stay the hell away from you because you’re in a crummy mood or if now’s a primo time to ask you for money since you’re feeling unusually cheery. What? I’m an opportunist! Also suuuuuuuper broke.

Do you find it difficult to squeeze in a work-out routine between sitting in front of your computer for work and sitting in front of your computer playing WoW? Me too. I need help! Just kidding, all I need is about 1000 XP before I level up. So close. This is the TrekDesk. It’s a treadmill with a desk on it. That…doesn’t sound dangerous in the least! Get your work out while you get your work done. Or burn the pounds you earned from rampant fridge-raids while you plan your next raid. LEROOOY JENKINS!

The BevBuckle is a belt buckle meant to hold your beer bottle or can. Flip down the face plate and a ring will pop up. Now just throw your brewski in there and tadaaaa! you look like a complete doofus. But let’s be honest, that’s a small price to pay considering you can now booze hands free. Plus I’ve always wanted to say “Look ma, no hands!” Sure, my mom will most likely respond with a very disapproving “Really? Drinking before noon?” but she and I’ll both know that she’s just jealous she doesn’t have a BevBuckle. Orrrr a drinking problem.

Hot of the heels weiners of their Baconlube success, J&D’s is now selling Bacon Condoms. They’re not made out of bacon, they only look and taste like bacon. Which is probably for the best. I assume wrapping peenor up in pork isn’t Mother Nature’s secret contraceptive. Then again, maybe it is Mother Nature’s secret contraceptive! That lady is krinky as all hell, so who knows? Plus, she’s the Mother of every living thing, so, yeah… now that you put it that way, I’m pretty sure bacon’s not super effective at preventing pregnancy. A 3-pack of the condoms will set you back $9.99, which is a little steep considering you can buy a 24-pack for a dollar at the 99 cent store. And those come in all different kinds of colors! Green is my favorite. It’s like banging an alien!

What’s a homebody to do when her friend mom is dragging her out for the evening? Surely she won’t want to leave home without a good book. Kate over at See Kate Sew has a splendid idea for book loving ladies. She combined a vintage book and old bag found at the thrift store to create this little gem of a purse. A night out doesn’t require a large bag, so this is a perfectly nerdy place to stash a cell phone, keys and some cash.

Underwater photography of scuba divers, coral, or wildlife can sometimes seem commonplace regardless of the remote destination or subject, but Indonesian photographer Hengki Koentjoro (previously here and here) bucks the trend with his desaturated, dark, and often brooding images taken in and around Jakarta, Indonesia. While his landscape photography above ground is often dreamlike and mysterious, as soon as the blue is removed from the ocean it introduces a slightly menacing tone that while deeply beautiful, sets the viewer a little on edge. Oh and also the sharks. Koentjoro is one of my favorite photographers right now and you should get lost in his photos for a bit. Find him on 500px, Flickr, and Art Limited. (via my amp goes to 11)

Artist Adam S. Doyle who recently relocated to Hong Kong creates beautiful gestural paintings of birds, where the seemingly incomplete brushstrokes are form the feathers and other details of the animal. In some strange way it reminds me of the story of the Renaissance painter Giotto who is rumored to have been able to draw a perfect circle without the aid of a compass, as if Doyle just picks up a dripping paint brush and in a few seconds paints a perfect bird. In reality his work demonstrates a profound control of the paintbrush and careful understanding of the mediums he works with. Via email he tells me: Yes, what you see is what it appears to be—strokes of paint. I’ve always loved unfinished paintings because you could see the alchemic process of surface and paint transforming into a living person. With my paintings, it does take quite a bit of working and reworking to arrive at the place where every brush stroke fits into a fluidly flowing whole. It’s important to me to find a…

These are Tramps Lamps made by artist Kelly Kerrigan. She makes the one of a kind lights from vintage and modern women’s lingerie. Teehee! Who knew a lamp could be so smexy? Kelly shapes the underthings using a non-flammable solution, so the lamps are safe to use indoors. Thank goodness, because I am NOT a fan of my apartment on fire. You’d think as often as it happens I’d grow accustomed to it, maybe even learn to appreciate the experience of seeing my home engulfed in flames. But… every time it happens it feels just like the first time. You know, basically just screaming my face off and waiting for the neighbors to call 911.

This is a customizable refridgerator kit that that turns your fridge into a TARDIS. I guess you could call it — get this! — a Pol-ICE Box. Yeeeaaah! The kit was designed by Joy Alyssa Day and is being sold over at Glass Sculpture. I’m assuming it does NOT make your fridge any bigger on the inside, which is a damn shame because I could use some extra room! Mainly because I buy all my food in bulk. I’m a big eater!

Remember that picture of the TARDIS refrigerator with no other information? Well it turns out it was made by artist/engineers B.E.Johnson & Joy Alyssa Day and they'll make one to fit your fridge for the low, low price of $185. Plus it doesn't come with the Christmas lights in the windows unless you want it to. Side decals are $65, an ice maker telephone door $14, and an audio module $12. I want one, but all I have is the lil compact refrigerator from my old dorm room. Customized refrigerator kit to turn your fridge into a very special Police Box. The top section is a separate structure that includes the sign, the peak roof and a working beacon. The skin integrates best with a French Door refrigerator, because of the way the fridge doors better match the Police Box. A single door, with or without a separate freezer, also looks cool; it just doesn't open in the manner of a Police Box. There is the option of including a stiffened "little phone door" that can be adjusted to make it…
