Oct 7 2008 AT-AT Fail: Because Sometimes Standing Up Is Just Too Damn Hard
Oh man, that's one of my favorite scenes from the movie. The snow, the AT-ATs, all the little ships flying around PEWing their brains out. And then the trip-up. This AT-AT Fail shirt costs $20.80 and comes in a variety of colors. Collect them all! Just kidding. Buy one! Or don't. I don't fucking care, I didn't make them.
On a side note, if there aren't any more posts today it's because I'm moving and am on the road....south! Goodbye wife and hello buxom southern belles guns and rednecks! WOHOO, come visit! See you bright and early tomorrow morning.
Thanks to Serene, who once tripped an AT-AT simply by willing it.
Oct 7 2008 Make Your Own Ice Bullets For Killer Cocktails
Can you believe that title? I'm a fucking idiot, true story. But I do like these ice cubes. The Bullet Ice Cube Tray makes ice cube rounds that look like AK-47 bullets and costs $13.25. Unfortunately, you have to add your own gunpowder if you want to fire them. But, as an added bonus, the bullets will melt before the police arrive. The perfect murder? MWAHAHAHAHAHA. No.
Hit the jump for a look at the trays.

Oct 7 2008 Virgin Galactic Refuses Money For Space Porn
Virgin Galactic recently refused $1 million from an undisclosed company to make a space porn aboard the SpaceShipTwo.
The cash was slapped on the table "up-front, for a sex-in-space movie", said the company's prez, Will Whitehorn, According to Space.com. He confirmed: "That was money we had to refuse, I'm afraid."According to Virgin, you only experience 5-minutes of weightlessness during the 2-hour flight to 62 miles high. Now I'm not saying that's not nearly long enough to make a good weightless space-porn, but you send me up there and I'll shoot two. Half of a third.

Somebody modded a Smart Car into a monster truck because, well, that's what people do. You come up with a really bad idea after a long night of drinking, and the next day you make your inebriated dream a reality. Trust me, it's the human condition.

Oct 6 2008 Passengers Worried X-Ray Security Shots Will Wind Up On Facebook And Myspace
Passengers are worried that pictures from a new x-ray security camera, the "virtual strip search", will end up online and display their privates for the whole social networking world to see.
Readers feel the new security measure has gone too far.
"Sure as heck, some customs officers will make snide remarks about young girls with breast implants and people with piercings in private locations. You betcha some will appear on Facebook or MySpace," said a post on news.com.au
However, authorities insist there's nothing to worry about.
"Faces are blurred and images are not saved and cannot be transferred," said Office of Transport Security executive director Paul Retter.
Oh yeah, because I'm dying to see some fuzzy monochromatic images of a chick's privates on Facebook. Wait....I think I am. Sweet!

Oct 6 2008 Tallest Lego Tower Record Already Beaten
Sometimes victory is fleeting. You have to realize that you can't have the tallest LEGO tower forever, and that some jerks from Vienna are probably gonna trump you within months of the feat. And that's exactly what happened. Hundreds of children helped construct the tower to celebrate the 100 Years of Friends of Children (WTF?) festival. And you know what? The kids didn't even have the common courtesy to blow the other tower out of the water. Nope, they just made theirs 7" taller, for a height of 96.72 feet. You see, that's the matter with kids these days, they're fucking lazy. If they're not playing video games, they're just barely beating world records. Seriously, somebody should build one to the damn moon already. Imagine -- a LEGO tower six miles high!
