Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family.
Choose a fucking big television. Choose washing machines, cars,
compact disc players and electrical tin openers…
choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning.
Choose sitting on that couch watching mindnumbing,
spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing junk food into your mouth.
Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home,
nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked-up brats you spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future. Choose Life …

For only R1800 each, I took my dad and I out on the ultimate ride in a 1963 Huey helicopter from V&W Waterfront to Blaauwberg for some batshit combat simulation flying. Best birthday presents ever!

Take off at high speed.

Surfing extremely close to the waves. Think I saw some surfers duck.

Crazy backflips and stomach turning fun.

Cruising extremely close to the ground along a dirt road.

Doing a backflip over a hill at high speed.

Terrifying. Six beers and a shaky camera hand and you’ve got bigfoot.

This would give me hope for humanity, if I believed that sleazy salesman went home and stopped taking advantage of sick people.

For some extra entertainment, watch Richard Dawkins vs Homeopathy.

Coolest hack I’ve ever seen, but can lights refresh that quickly?! Please don’t destroy my hopes and dreams by finding proof it’s a hoax.

We’re not saying this body wash will make your man smell into a
romantic millionaire jet fighter pilot, but we are insinuating it.

Not what you're expecting.

There's some pictures of the props on Flickr and a behind the scenes time-lapse video here.

Cats are easily confused.

Princeton neuroscientists strapped a mouse onto a suspended ball and had it navigate a Quake 2-inspired virtual maze. This experiment was conducted “to study the individual neurons in the hippocampus that control motion.” Apparently it’s difficult to control and study the neurons of a mouse when it’s physically moving, and this method makes that easier. It may seem cruel, but I’m sure the mouse prefers it to dissection and skin cream testing. Why they didn’t use the millions of gamers who pay to do this is beyond me. Wired article has the details.

Mountain biking downhill through a pine forest in a ghillie suit, dodging tank shells, jumping off into a bush, cracking out my sniper rifle and taking out artillery observers. Only in Arma 2, where everything is possible, until the stuttering and bugs get you.

Here’s a video of someone else who’s joined the brave Mountain Bike Sniper Corps:
