Crazy – by a robot

Yes, that’s a robot playing Patsy Cline’s Crazy. Still doesn’t beat the original:

Will it Blend? Chuck Norris

Once again, Internet fads collide. Hilarity ensues.

I’d be a little remiss if I didn’t mention some of my favorite Chuck Facts
- Chuck Norris’ tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried. Ever.
- Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.
- Chuck Norris counted to infinity – twice.

Programming Details

This guy happened to get the Chuck E Cheese band or something like it and shows us what he’s done with it so far. Pretty nifty. Personally, I know I’d never get anything else done if I had the Tiki birds from the Enchanted Tiki Room (under old management. Curse you, Iago).

Marble Adding Machine

The best part is it adds in binary. I need to get someone with good woodworking skills to make one of these for me.

Leaping Shampoo

Step 1: Study why shampoo seems to leap when poured (the Kaye effect)
Step 2: …
Step 3: Profit!

Still, this is a pretty neat effect. I’m going to have to see if I can reproduce this in a controlled environment*

For Science!

Retroencabulator

I don’t know about you, but the thought of side fumbling in my Retroecabulator has kept me up at night. Thank goodness for the dingleknob!

Dishmaker

This could be a very cool appliance. You wouldn’t have to worry about breaking dishes and you would have as many as you need (given enough raw material). I wonder if he’s put any thought into cutlery or glasses.

Plen the Robot

This is yet another video of another amazing robot. This one can skateboard and rollerskate.

If I ever get one, I’m naming it Jerry. “Hi, my name is Brian. I’m the new kid. I like to skateboard”

Cockroach Controlled Robot

As if cockroaches weren’t unstoppable all ready, what with being able to survive a nuclear holocaust and all. Now we go and give them robots. If we are going to arm a race of creatures to eventually take over the world, why can’t it be a cute one? Who would be able to resist an army of cybernetic koalas. I for one would welcome our new koala overlords.

… I’m really tired right now. I’m going to get some sleep.

Rocket Scooter

That looks dangerous, reckless, and downright irresponsible.

… I want one.
