Someone better tailor me for my jumpsuit and give me my keys to my flying car, ’cause we’re in the goddamned future!
It’s not enough that every video game console creator is designing ways for us to control games without…you know…a controller. Now, the wizards at Coldstone Creamery have designed the impossible: Ice Cream That Doesn’t Melt!
Nope. Doesn’t melt. Instead, it turns into JELL-O PUDDING.
This is science, folks. The two flavors available at launch will be Chocolate & Butterscotch.
The delicious treat that blows away all standards of what we believed possible will be available at participating Coldstone Creamery locations starting today, June 3rd, and ending on July 28th. What a world.

No, no, I didn’t win. But we’ve reached the finals of the Next Dunkin Donut contest, and only one of these 12 AMAZING donuts will be baked nationwide at everyone’s favorite breakfast pastry shop. Here are the finalists (let’s ignore how similar one was to my suggestion…)

Here’s another great way to kill time on the internet.
Do you like donuts?
Do you like winning $12,000?
This is the site for you, as Dunkin Donuts is looking for YOU, yes, YOU to create their next big donut. Just mess around with some different controls, make your flavor combos, and submit it, and WHAM, you could win 12 grand and have your donut featured in shops across the country.
That donut up top is my creation. I call it The Smore. Marshmellow filling, chocolate frosting, and graham cracker bits. Sounds tasty.
…and makes me sad it’s not real.

It seems the “artistic t-shirt” craze brought to you by companies like Threadless and Design By Humans now has competition.
The competition? The King. The food type. Not the Elvis type.
Chalking itself up on the list of “Shit I Never Thought I’d See” is the Burger King Studio, which allows users to purchase designer t-shirts with BK related graphics starting at $16, or design their own for the low price of $24.
I can’t say I’m all that surprised that someone is attempting to take the Threadless/DBH idea and make it even more mainstream…but Burger King, really? They’ve even opened a boutique shop on Universal City Walk in Orlando.
Sure, the shirts look interesting…but I’d be very interested to see what crossover there is between the fancy tee shirt and burger eating crowds. Do they know that this is sort of the corporate equivalent of your Dad trying to say he loves the same music as you?

I shared this earlier in the week on my Twitter (which if you’re not following, you should, I post all sorts of fun things there), but I figured I should share this site on BoR proper.
I give you This is why you’re fat.
What’s the idea? Essentially, this site presents all of the high-calorie, super deadly omni-foods (like the “french-fry encased hot-dog-on-a-stick” seen above) that send fear into the hearts of the weak, and hunger pangs to the stomachs of the stupid strong.
So go on, click it. And get ready to be equal parts amazed and horrified at just what people choose to eat these days.

Like most of the male world, I’m looking forward to the Super Bowl this weekend.
But it’s not for the typical reasons.
No folks, I don’t really care who wins. I mean, I couldn’t tell you who’s playing… (Chicago Bulls and San Fran Giants, right? Sure hope the Giants score more goals)
…but I can tell you I’m excited for two bits.
1. The commercials (including movie trailers)
and…
2. The food.
As an unabashed foodie, I can tell you that few things excite me more than on the day of the Super Bowl, you can cut loose and eat any number of bizarre snack foods, and that’s what brings me to the topic of this post…
The EDIBLE STADIUM you see above.
That’s right, that’s 99% edible, and contains such great foods as bacon, twinkees, sausage, and god knows what else.

I know we’ve been afraid of The King for a few years now, but I’ve officially become convinced that Burger King is pure evil.
Just yesterday, BK announced a brand new Facebook application entitled WHOPPER SACRIFICE.
What’s the gimmick? Here goes…
You install “Whopper Sacrifice”, and upon clicking it, you get a list of your Facebook friends. For every 10 friends you highlight, and choose to delete, you get a coupon for a free Whopper.
Here’s the catch! Your friend, who you “sacrificed”, gets a message indicating that you feel that they are less important to you than a Whopper.
Thanks BK and Facebook! I can only imagine the legion of scorned exes and fairweather friends which are making burger lovers’ life a living hell today.
