Flip'd out

Hola amigo,

Life is nothing but a series of moments, right? Or maybe you once doodled on a pad of paper and flipped the pages to make your own jittery animation. Whatever -- just check out this stop-motion animation epic produced on a t-shirt as it chronicles one of the oldest sagas in all of human history.

How Can We Make The War In Iraq More Eco-Friendly?
In order to make the world a better place for all, certain measures MUST be taken to make the war in Iraq more environmentally friendly. Vietnam pioneered green mayhem, and hopefully, with the help of technology and enterprising warmongers, we can follow suit. Machete killings are zero emissions, for example. You've got to start somewhere. The Onion News Network's "In The Know" has the full story.

Spazzz out
You know those over-the-top commercials for candy where the point is to make the selection of the product itself seem like an act of crazy, rebellious fun? College Humor takes the absurdity to its next level in this ad for "Spazz!!!." What screams "fun" more than children running amok in school, burning their books, and disemboweling the principal? The message: high fructose corn syrup = anarchy. Not too far from the reality, sadly.

Photoshop ver. 0 reviewed
There's a school of thought that all this photoshoppery is really a step backwards from using pencils, scissors and glue. Reactionary thought maybe, but that might be your opinion after reading this humorous review of crayons from the conceit of computer users not knowing what a pencil is even for.

Exhaustburger Cooks While You Drive
And finally, good tree-huggers never waste a thing, yet so much heat is lost through the tailpipe. We have heard of cooking with your car engine before (there is even a book called Manifold Destiny about the subject) but when covering the Dining in 2015 competition we missed this clever trick for getting a little extra mileage out of your engine exhaust. Just stick in a veggie burger and drive.
