A while back, Jossie, a friend of my girlfriend’s, decided she wanted to make someting for the UK charity site pimpthatsnack.com, which features giant versions of everyday snacks and treats, sells ads against their hyooge traffic, and donates all the skrilla to charity.
Now, most projects on the site are big candy bars or marshmallows or something, but Jossie had a better ideas — to make a giant version of one of those liquor-filled chocolate bottles. It was quite a process, with much scientific experimentation and sampling of the key ingredients. The girls loved it — getting drunk and eating chocolate at the same time. You can see the final product below. Click here to see more pictures and read about how to make one of your own >

Check out this best-of-craigslist post with fifteen reasons why geeks and nerds are better to date. Most important: reason #7 — sex.
But what if you’re a cardinal geek and also an ex-football-playing jock? Hmm..

Sheeit, that almost rhymes. Anywho, it’s Saturday, so I feel like sharing some fun & interesting links with all my non-readers:
I’m absolutely addicted to this satirical blog. Anybody who’s into Apple or has watched Steve Jobs over the years should get a kick out of this frequently-updated site.
Do you groan every time you want to try a new site out and you have to create a new user account. Do you hate the way sites nag you that your profile is “only 27% complete”? Then check out this funny parody site.
Have a fetish for pixel art? Then check out this page, which has to be the most ridiculously ginormous pixelated isometric-viewopoint metropolis on teh intarweb. Be patient — the goodness takes a while to load.
This article is about just that — thriteen still-unsolved mysteries of science, from the placebo effect to the effectiveness of ultra-diluted homeopathic remedies.
A study showing that images of “watching eyes” taped to walls will keep people more honest when nobody else is around. Big Brother is watching you masturbate!
This one is a bit ironic for me to point out, as I’ve always tended to stay more on the virtuous, overachiever side of things, and I currently spend most of my time working at my computer. But hey, do as I say, not as I do, right?
