Origami Condom

No, these aren't plastic holders for that banana in your hand (the fruit) although it's definitely geared for the banana down under (your wang.) It's a modernized, revamped version of the condom that was designed by Daniel Resnic and it's totally outrageous.

The peen jackets are made from latex-free silicone and they come in an accordion-like shape that lessens breaks and heightens pleasure.

A Giant Peen Rises in China

By Hazel Chua | May 11, 2013 @ 1:00 pm

China's known for a lot of stuff: cheap labor, the Great Wall, shameless knockoffs, the one-child policy. Now it's about to be known as the country having the world's largest peen. We're not talking about some Chinese dude who grew a ginormous wang; rather, we're talking about the new headquarters for the People's Daily that's shaped like a giant pecker.

In case you didn't know, the People's Daily is China's state-run propaganda newspaper, so we're not really talking about some random building. It's a structure that's directly connected to the government, for crying out loud. You'd think they'd have chosen a more prudent design.

Screwdriver Car Key

Unless you've got fully tinted windows, then this hack might not be suitable for you. Nathan of HaHa Bird got bored one day, so he decided to make a screwdriver car key that, when insert into the ignition, makes it look like you've jimmied the car up and are driving a stolen vehicle.

Sounds pretty funny, right? Freaking hilarious even. It's a funny thing to pull on friends and family, but it's not going to be so funny anymore when a cop's pulling you over.

How Much Food Can You Buy For $5 Around The World? (VIDEO)

By Hazel Chua | May 10, 2013 @ 1:00 pm
You'd Be Surprised

Five dollars might not seem like much, but it could buy you a whole crapload of bananas if you're broke and hungry--that is, if you happen to be in Ethiopia. You probably won't ever go hungry even with meager savings because if five bucks can get you 25 pounds of bananas, how much more can a hundred bucks get you?

Back in the good old US of A, you'll only be able to get 8.5 pounds of bananas and you'll have it much worse in France with only five pounds of bananas.

But enough of this monkey business, let's talk about the stuff that really matters: booze.

BBQ Bruce Handrail Grill: Have a Good Old Balcony Barbecue

Handrail Grill

Nothing beats grilling juicy burgers and thick slabs of steak on the balcony. Imagine the breeze cooling you off while the summer heat threatens to give you heat stroke, with the charcoal burning and the smell of sizzling meat wafting all over the place. Too bad your regular grill's too big for your crappy little balcony.

For years, you've been waiting for someone to come up with a compact-enough grill so you can hold impromptu barbecues without the muss and the fuss. And come up with it they did with the BBQ Bruce Handrail Grill.

Now You Can Rent A DeLorean from ‘Back To The Future’

By Hazel Chua | May 10, 2013 @ 7:00 am

You've dreamed about owning one for years.

Celebrities Tweet the Darndest Things (VIDEO)

Celebs and Their Stupid Tweets

The thing about being connected 24/7 is that it gives people more opportunities to run off at the mouth and make fools of themselves. It's bad for them but great for us, because where else are we supposed to get our daily comic relief?

At the top of the list are celebs. You might think that they'd be too busy to tweet about nonsensical stuff, but apparently, they make time. In the process, the media and folks like us learn a few things about themselves as well: one, that they can say incredibly stupid stuff without the help of their PR people; and two, that they can be incredibly stupid people, period.

This hilarious video by Shane Dawson highlights the best of the worst stuff that celebrities have tweeted. Most of these tweets eventually went viral after they were posted because of their sheer stupidity.
