ไทยCatgotchyerflashlight?
What happens when a curious cat falls for a flashlight on a waxed floor? Exactly what you think would happen, but it’s nonetheless entertaining and slightly sad (worth the 13 seconds it will take of your life).
A Game for the Typographically Obsessed
We appreciate anything that helps us procrastinate if it is both A) free and B) entertaining, and bonus points if it can fall under the guise of “productivity” / “learning.” Enter Kern Type, the site that makes a game out of adjusting a word’s kerning (spacing between letters). As OCD type geeks, we love this, and even more so since we can “justify” our playing it as “professional development.” Our only qualm is that there aren’t more levels so we can waste more time learn more!
Plastic Furniture “Grown” from Magnets
We love all things magnetic and applaud innovative experimentation, so we think these “Gravity Stools” are a cool idea but are unfortunately and decidedly Fugly. Dutch designer Jólan van der Wiel created the volanic-rock-looking stools using magnets to pull apart a molten mix of plastic and iron filings.
Unicorn Poop: Taste the Rainbow!
We’ve unfortunately never come across real unicorn poo (we hear the elusive creatures try to steer clear of Manhattan), but luckily Instructables user Kristylynn84 has and has been able to recreate the magical droppings in the form of terrifically colorful and delicious-looking cookies. While you may never be able to catch or, much less, see a unicorn, we’re guessing a good amount of the artificial food coloring in these will stay with you forever! More photos and links to instructions after the jump.
Kittehz Takin’ Over Beautay
We have a longstanding belief that cats are conspiring to take over the world…and will in due time. Case in point: they are now infiltrating a once incongruous realm, makeup. French label Paul & Joe Beauté has a new cosmetics collection that features cat-embossed eye shadows and lipsticks shaped like kitties wearing mini top hats. Top hats! It seems the felines are slowly gaining control…under the clever guise of cute and novel accoutrements…
Beauty is Only Pixel Deep
This clever, fake commercial for a new beauty product “Fotoshop by Adobé” is both an entertaining spoof of cosmetic ads and a pointed criticism. Writer and director Jesse Rosen says of his video, “This commercial isn’t real, neither are society’s standards of beauty.” We love our Photoshop but agree sometimes it can go too far!
Congrats to Friends PSFK, the Next-Gen of Consulting Firms
