GOB: Why go to a banana stand when we can make your banana stand? I give you Barbara and Dee! Don’t worry. These young beauties have been nowhere near the bananas.

Big Gas Savings, A Funny Ad For Kmart’s New Discount Gas Service
What ever agency is doing the new Kmart ads, I applaud you.
May Day is one of my favorite things about the Cities.
When I was little, I just loved the puppets (though some of them scared me a little.) These days, I still love the puppets, but I love the joy even more.
This year, after a painfully long winter, May Day came just in time; we needed this beautiful absurdity, the bright colors, the smiles, the gathering. May Day is painfully earnest, is families making puppets together, is smack-you-in-the-face metaphor, is a bit of madness, is utter joy, is being incredibly weird and together.
I nearly cried at the parade. It’s such a hopeful thing to do, presenting this parade with big ideas with puppets made with the hands of the community.
I’m so thankful that I was able to attend this year.
May Day in Minneapolis is amazing.
Wow! My DRAWINGS kickstarter has over 200 backers already! Thanks for getting the word out there Tumblr. You guys are the best.
It is implied in any scene with Matt Little that Stan Lee is there for just a brief cameo.
When I saw this this morning I was all JAW. FALLED. OPEN.
Kurt is the best.
I have told this story many times…
In a TYR practice we had a first beat that had Spider-man in a street drugs scene. I don’t remember the specifics. For the second beat, I announced loudly from the backline, “Next on Stan Lee’s The Wire….” (Note: Matt was also very into The Wire at the time.)
Our coach (I believe it was Gabrus) said he watched Matt just sort of freak out on the backine in excitement.
(This would make a great shirt.)
Debunked! UCB’s “The Straight Men” is fake. It was entirely pre-planned by Will Hines.
Watch this video to learn how Will Hines:
1) Knew the suggestion beforehand
2) Wasn’t authorized to be in this show
3) Manipulated the audience with his clothing
4) Communicated with an off-stage puppet master DURING THE SHOW.Mr. Hines will not justify these baseless accusations with a response, and does not confirm or deny the presence of scripted material in this or every show he does.
The House That Del Built: As Long As You Listen to Your Body...
Every couple of years I get really into spinning. Not the DJ kind, but the “riding a stationary bike in a room with forty other people while a trainer at the front of the room barks orders at you” kind. I like spinning because I’m not very good at self-guided exercise, and I’ve found that it’s…
You won’t be stressing this summer if you’re sipping on this tasty glass of general badassery. The antioxidant loaded in theses blackberries will make sure free radicals aren’t fucking up your day. And the bourbon? YOU EARNED THAT SHIT.
BLACKBERRY BOURBON FIZZ
5 blackberries
5 ice cubes
1 shot of bourbon
¾ cup cold ginger ale (none of that high fructose corn syrup, aspartame nonsense either. Get good shit that has fucking ginger root as an ingredient)
¼ cup cold club soda (optional)
Put the blackberries in the bottom of a tall glass and mash them around with a spoon. Keep some big chunks because it looks cool. Add the ice and then the bourbon, ginger ale, and club soda. I like adding club soda because it keeps it tasting refreshing as fuck but you can save some cash and just add more ginger ale. Garnish with fresh basil if you are trying to impress somebody.
Serves 1 but invite a fucking friend, no need to drink alone
We made this for our friend Dara over at Cosmo.com
This sounds delicious!
For Nicole. Or should this go on Pinterest? Is this a Pinterest thing? *
* Unrelated, while writing the above, I just made complete sense of the name “Pinterest.” I always understood the “pin” part. Just got the “interest” part. Up to know, the name always invoked the word “pederast” for some reason.
How to solve world hunger with pizza
The idea of a universal food synthesizer sounds like something straight out of the Jetsons or Star Trek, but thanks to a $125,000 grant from NASA, a 3-D food printer may become a reality.
Anjan Contractor, a senior mechanical engineer at Systems and Materials Research Corporation, is already working on bringing the idea to fruition.
NASA’s interested because storing the various ingredients as a power greatly extends their shelf life for lengthy travel through space, but Contractor wants to keep all of the recipes open source, so the general public could eventually benefit as well.
So how will the pizza be made?
Pizza will be one of the first items printed because of its natural layers of ingredients. First, a layer of dough will be printed and baked at the same time using a heated plate at the bottom of the printer. A layer of tomato base will follow — made of powder, water and oil — then a protein layer will top the pizza.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Defense Distributed, why couldn’t you have been “Dough Distributed”?
“Kids, what kind of pizza should we print?”
“Protein layer! Protein layer!”
“Okay. Coming right up! Oh, damn it. The red vegetable powder cartridge is empty. Maybe if I take it out and shake it.”
