Daily Awesomeness: 07/17/2009

HOORAY TGIF!! Yup, it’s Friday and have we got a lot of stuff for you! What you ask?

First off, Uncoached.com has the Ill tornado list…

tornado2

Of all the crazy types of destructive storms out there, I’d have to say that a Tornado is probably the most badass.   Hurricanes are cool and all but they aren’t represented by anything visual.  The only visual thing you see is wind and rain.  Maybe some lightning here and there.   But a tornado is a like a monster.  It’s “alive.”  And boy does it do some damage. (via Uncoached)

This is just one of the many tornado vids on Uncoached today, go check the rest of them out… then come right back.

OK, Welcome back! You’ll be glad you did because otherwise you’d never have learned about COED Magazine’s “Olivia Munn Sex Soundboad” OMGOMGOMG

om_soundboard-lead

That’s right boys, you wanna hear Olivia moan because you made her? There’s an app for that… alright, that’s a stretch but at least theres a blog post. Go press her buttons, then come back again.

Welcome back once again, frankly we’re a little surprised that you keep returning. We love you too! and for that we give you this, a random picture of Jay Leno with what appear to be two of his biggest fans. (click thumbnail to view larger image)

Jay Leno's Biggest Fans

Those guys are our new heroes… Actually wait, no this guy is:

awesome-funny-18

Wait, wait, no this girl is… yeah definitely her…

awesome-funny-8

Yeah, Final Answer Reeg… Those guys at the chive.com, we’re seriously gonna buy them a beer one day! ONE DAY! BEER! WOOO!!! There are another 23 awesome images on their aptly titled post, “THAT. IS. AWESOME.” good title guys, we approve.

Something else that we just wanted you to see was this crazy woman on the Maury show, who is petrified of cotton.

On the Maury show, a woman confronts her fears about cotton balls…and frogs (though the frogs aren’t pictured in this video). This is even better when he brought a woman on the show who was scared of pickles. (via You Tube)

In the case of crazy cotton fearing woman, you ARE the father!

We really don’t know how to follow that with anything other than 4 Guinea Pigs eating watermelon. Enjoy! (oh & Don’t forget to become a fan of “Awesomeness!” on Facebooks It will be the best strategic move you make all day!)

Daily Awesomeness: 07/16/2009

It’s that time of the day when DAPS gets just a little more AWESOME! What’s more awesome than penguins being protected by snipers? That’s right… nothing!

penguin

Professional snipers have been brought in to guard a vulnerable colony of penguins in Australia.

The deployment follows the mysterious deaths of nine of the flightless birds over the last two weeks.

The mutilated bodies of the animals, known as fairy penguins, were found in a national park near Sydney harbour.

The main suspects are dogs and foxes. At 40cm tall, the world’s smallest penguin species is clearly no match for such aggressive enemies.

To even up the fight, two snipers have been deployed as bodyguards. (via BBC NEWS)

Leave it to those cooky austrailians to get all snipery on account of Danny Devito’s kin. (lololz batman returns references)

So what else is up in AWESOME today? Bet you never seen this cool Infrared Photogrpahy shit. (If you’re thinking to yourself… “yes i have” then you’re pretentious and you don’t belong here! GO AWAY)

infrared_11

You can check out more of that shit over at Funtasticus.com. Theres a lot more amazing images so seriously go look at them. Those break media people sure are keen on finding interesting and relevant content ::wink::

What’s funny is that we have no connection to that site at all LOL. We also have ZERO connection to Joe Farraj, whose text conversation trumps all that you’ve ever found even mildly important…

joe-farraj

If you don’t understand why that’s so cool, we’re not about to tell you.. the next post is also pretty much for you also.

All of us here laughed just about as much as these guys did, we might have been laughing AT THEM though. On the other hand, we weren’t laughing at this next video. We were just amazed at how many people were involved… Way to go Stockholm!

Oh, Michael Jackson stuff, You’ve got about another week before nobody cares anymore.

We will always celebrate the late Bill Cosby though, especially when he’s memorialized in Jell-o art.

cosby-shots-2

To celebrate Bill Cosby’s birthday on July 12th, artist Andrew Salamone made a portrait of the comedian using Jell-O shots. Which, I think we can all agree, is a fitting tribute. Does he still do those commercials? Damn, now I want a Jell-O Pudding Pop. Do they still make those? Okay, so maybe I have been down in this robot shelter too long. I kid, I kid — now somebody bring me some new cassettes to play.

Hit the jump for a couple more shots and a video of the portrait’s transformation over the course of a night. (via Geekologie)

Seriously, how cool is that? Geekologie really has their shit on lock and we’d like to marry them! Which state is it that websites can get married again? I think it’s Maine.  Speaking of Maine, there’s an epidemic in this country with a disease that really needs more attention, so we’re going to do our part and spotlight it!

Those cats at IGNentertainment sure do know how to make us giggle. teehee. teehee. Anyhoes, Don’t forget to become a fan of “Awesomeness!” on Facebooks It will be the best strategic move you make all day!

Daily Awesomeness: 07/15/2009

Wow, how did yesterday’s awesomeness recap magiacally appear today? WEIRD!

So, who wants to know what you (and we) missed? Sounds good! here we go…. Thanks to Buzzfeed we came along what might be the greatest Yahoo! answers response EVAR! (click the thumbnail to enlarge!)

when-a-guy-says-go-make-me-a-sandwich-whats-a-goo-3727-1247527823-25

Somone definately earned themselves a sandwich there…hopefull it was this one:

overstuffed-sandwich

Some chefs have probably never heard the phrase “too much of a good thing” as they create some of the world’s most stuffed food. WomansDay takes a look at 9 stuffed-to-the-brim food creations, like this db Burger Double Truffle from db Bistro Moderne above:

This specialty sandwich, available at db Bistro Moderne in Manhattan, sells for a whopping $150—but it’s certainly something to marvel at. Stuffed inside the burger are braised short ribs along with a flavorful helping of foie gras, which is topped with 20 grams of shaved black truffles and served inside a crispy Parmesan bun.

Bon appétit! (via Neatorama)

Now, if the sandwich is not obtained quickly and without complaint, we’re gonna have to send this old bag lookin’ for ya…

But if you do get the sandwich, and we enjoy it… You will be rewarded with something like this:

garage-3

Style Your Garage covers are printed tarps made to attach to your garage door to make it appear your garage is something it’s not. For example, this one makes it look like you’re running a rotisserie chicken business. But the fun doesn’t stop there! Hit the jump to see a bunch of my other favorites, then head to the site to see a ton more. They all retail for about $275 and were made for one piece garage doors, but can be modified (read: cut) to fit on sectionals. And speaking of sectionals, my new couch has a chaise. Ladies? First to make me a sandwich can sit on it (until I’m full, then it’s dishes time for you)! (via Geekologie)

Definitely check out the rest of these things on Geekologie’s post “Awesome: These Garage Door Covers

We know what you’re thinking… “ENOUGH ABOUT THE FUCKIN’ SANDWICH” and we hear you loud and clear. So here’s someone who doesn’t have a problem bringing people sandwiches. And we’re 100% certain that she’s better than you at it!

Go ahead, try and argue with us about that? If she could do this.. she could get a GODDAMMNED SANGWICH!!!!…

Daily Awesomeness: 07/14/2009

It’s that time again (and by that time we mean whatever time it is that you’re reading this!), the perfect time for AWESOME!

Have you ever thought to yourself “I don’t spend nearly enough time on the computer, there HAS to be another way to get my fix!!”? Well we have the post for you! Funky Trend has the solution, an endless supply of keyboard inspired merchandise!

ctrlaldel

keyboard-cufflinks

There’s even a sneaker that kas a qwerty keyboard on it, now thats pretty cool. “What else is cool?” you asked…. GIANT ANIMALS!!!

largeanimals06

largeanimals08

Yeah there’s more Sathamcotta.com seems to have them all in their post aptly titled “Giant-Sized Animals” way to be direct Sathamcotta.com.

Out of nowhere, however, is this amazing tike…tyke…tiyke? (Sp?)

His name would be , and he would apparently like to be a guest on a talk show. (You can contact him at NewVision5050@Yahoo.com) LOL

Only slightly harder to get in touch with are Faith No More, seen here performing Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face” a song that may or may not be a subtle reference to a woman giving a man oral sex.

That was nice at first, a litte jarring, and very similar to this insane news story…

Axel Sanz-Claus, a tourist from Germany was enjoying a perfect visit to New York City until his dinner Friday night.

He ordered steak and spinach from the Bull and Bear Steak House at the Waldorf Astoria.

Sanz-Claus spoke exclusively to Eyewitness News claiming that hidden in his food was a tampon, a blood soaked tampon. (via ABC7NY)

You can check out the video of the news report here. See it’s awesome if you’re into Schadenfreude…to each his own.

Daily Awesomeness: 07/13/2009

It’s been a whole weekend kids, are you ready for your latest and greatest AWESOME fix? No? Don’t Care? Whatevs..

Let’s start with an incredible video clip from our friend and complete babe, Christine Salah. The video is of a dude named Travis Pastrana who jumped out of a plane…sans parachute!!!11!

HOLY SHIT!! We later found out that this clip was from MTV’s Nitro Circus, a defunct Jackass spin-off from director Jeff Tremaine and star Johnny Knoxville. Oh and by the way, Christine Salah is hot… just sayin’ (hey baby ; P)

So what else caught our eye this weekend, oh right… THE MOST IMPRESSIVE RUSSIAN DUDES EVAR@! Check out the vodka-shot skillzzz

Yep, thats how a shot is done boys… i want to see each of you do this at least once this week. If you do and send us video, maybe we’ll give you the following object as a prize (but most likely not)

burger-bed

Relax my little lambs, I’m alive. I apologize for not being able to post this past weekend but I’ve been traveling and am staying at a place with no internet (heathens!). Currently, I’m bringing Geekologie to you from an undisclosed public library near Miami, Florida (COME FIND ME, I DARE YOU!). So yeah, I didn’t die and I’m sorry, okay? I swear I’ll make it up to you. Nudie pics? You got em. And whatever you female readers would like as well. (via Geekologie)

That’s right… A Burger-Bed. You’d think it came from ThisIsWhyYoureFat.com but it’s not, ya’ll need to get up on your geekologie bitches.

Next up, apparently there are two churches somewhere in bumblefuck that are feuding over the classic film “All Dogs Go To Heaven”

church-sign-battle

chuch-sign-battles-1

This is actually really funny, check out the rest of the pics on TheChive.com, That site IS awesomeness. You know what else is awesomeness? A screamo band covering a Postal Service song…

If you were into that, the band name is “Confide”, check them out on Myspace here.

Finally, we’ll leave you with what we can only dub ‘DAPS for chicks’ in this post they list the reasons why they “love the peen” and that’s something we can respeck.

Daily Awesomeness: 07/10/2009

It’s been a long week my awesomes… we’re gonna hit you straight with the BIG guns. Submitted by user Brian Salah, this Break video of an amazing 11o Roman Candle cannon may just make your entire month of July.


Now, because it’s just about the weekend, check out what those lovable guys at Coors Light have up their sleeve…

coorslight-at

“While our current wide-mouth vented can does allow the beer leave the can more quickly and create a smooth, refreshing pour, it doesn’t seem to satisfy the customer that prefers to have the beer shot down his throat.” said Coors Brewing Company CEO Peter Swinburn.  “That’s why we’ve created this new can.  When used in cooperation with the traditional tab located at the top of the can, the shotgunnable can will completely empty its contents in a matter of seconds.”

When asked by a reporter if the can was magic, Swinburn just chuckled and said, “No, it’s mostly just gravity and pressure change and I can’t even begin to tell you how much it means to me that this happened under my watch here at Coors.” (via The Larely Beagle)

Now, if that doesn’t sound like an instand party, I don’t know what does! Actually there is one thing that sounds more like an instant party..THE MOST AMAZING SITE ON THE INTERNET!!!! OMGOMG

badwebsite

That’s something so amazingly bad, that you’ll want to send it to all of your friends and relatives! Speaking of friends and relatives, you should think about the following items as potential holiday season holiday gifts!!11!

First there’s this Portable Pizza Oven, for those who can’t wait to get all the way to Dominoes.

pizzaoven186

The first review on Stupididiotic is pretty damn funny:

This has got to be the STUPIDEST idea EVER… There are enough stupid Americans driving on the roads already, now you offer them a novelty item that will further distract them, with the additional bonus of burning themselves and killing, maiming, or injuring them selves or others, yeah, fucking keep it in the States.  (via Stupididiotic)

Next up is this Hello Kitty TASER, which we were pretty excited about until we realized that it was FAKE. thanks a lot NEATORAMA!

Daily Awesomeness: 07/09/2009

Welcome to Thursday my little Awesomes! To start the show tonight, we’re going to learn you something, we’re going to learn you something good. That’s right, HOW TO OPEN A BANANA LIKE A MONKEY!

Not into Bananas? Do they make you uncomfortable? Well then you probably dig yourself some good ol’ American baseball…right? New York Mets first baseman Daniel Murphy made some kind of no look-behind the back play yesterday and it was simply marvelous!

Somebody needs to get that boy on a wheaties box or something. Actually, get that boy a DVD containing all of Asylum’s Greatest PG-13 nudie scenes in cinema history!! Their list is made up of gems like Jim Carrey sneaking a peek at Lauren Holly’s panty-less bottom in Dumb and Dumber…

lauren_holly

And Milla Jovovich’s “creation” scene in the cult classic The 5th Element (mul-tee-PASS)

That scene always makes us so horny I mean wistful…. ugh just check out the rest of the list, lets just shoot shit and forget what we said there, kkthx?

high-speed-bullets-6

Again with the bananas, what the hell is going on here today?? We promise that there are other cool things being shot on The Chive’s post called “Bullets hitting all sorts of stuff

Speaking of stuff, How Stuff Works gave us a list of 10 quirky facts about mass-produced food. Our personal favorite, Every 16 seconds a twinkiee comes into the world…

mass-produced-facts-2

Twinkies have become the requisite butt of the mass-produced-food joke: According to some, Twinkies are so well-preserved they have a shelf life measured in years. Actually, it’s more like 25 days. And anyway, people don’t seem to mind much either way: Every year, Hostess produces (and Americans consume) 500 million of the little snack cakes.

That’s 1,000 Twinkies a minute and 16 a second. In the time is takes you to blink, four Twinkies come off the Hostess production line.

On a sad environmental note, Hostess goes through 40,000 miles (64,373 kilometers) of plastic wrap per year wrapping them up.

Doesn’t that photo make you want yourself a twinkie? It probably makes the dude in this next video want one… He put together the most involved marriage proposal of ALL TIME and where? At Disneyland of course!

It really is unfortunate how obviously gay the guy is though, not that there’s anything wrong with that… Anyways… Don’t forget to become a fan of “Awesomeness!” on Facebooks It will be the best strategic move you make all day!

Daily Awesomeness: 07/08/2009

HOLY SNATCH, have we got some good shit for you today! let’s just get to it…

Today we asked you good people of the facebooks “What is the most awesome superpower?” One of your answers made us pee just a little. (click image to enlarge)

teleport

Speaking of teleporting into people’s dicks… Stop being a jerk and admire what is probably the coolest concept for wedding invitations EVAR! (and please spare the “you’re throwing your life away” comments for just a moment)

This one ingenius couple sent their family and friends View Masters, complete with personalized 3d images of things they enjoyed.

viewmastermain

Our invitations were kept secret from EVERYONE. My parents, sister, friends, everyone. So it was a complete surprise when they showed up in mailboxes. We are both graphic designers but wanted to truly splurge on our invitations. We knew a lot of our invite list wouldn’t be able to make it. With the combination of a destination wedding, our family scattered across the country and the economy, we wanted to give all of our invitees something special even if they can’t be there to share the day with us. This was our biggest expense vs. what we could have spent but I feel like it’s worth it. (via Offbeat Bride)

01frames_l

Yes, that is a Mecha-Godzilla. Too Fucken awesome for words… be sure to check out the rest of the images that could be seen in the couple’s View Master invites here.

To even out the estrogen : masculinity ratio here, let’s just jump to something with a little more BALLS. Everyone loves a good flash mob, most everyone loves them some martial arts, and then even more people enjoy Mortal Kombat…er why don’t you just watch.

If you weren’t into that video, you might have thought to yourself.. “FAIL” well, most of you don’t really know what you’re talking about. Check yourself before you wreck yourself with this ROCKETBOOM video or something…

Speaking of FAIL…

IDK about you guys, but we don’t think ass implants are a joking matter to be laughed at. A literal “life imitating art” situation straight from the pages of Charlie and the Chocolate factory however, makes us tee-hee… just a little bit. The only image CBS 2 had on it’s page was a cup of hot chocolate, so here’s Augustus Gloop…

ww_015

A spokesman for the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office says the 29-year-old temporary worker at Cocoa Services Inc. plant fell after a blade used to mix raw chocolate hit him. The man’s name has not been released.

The accident happened around 10:30 a.m. Wednesday as the worker was loading raw chocolate into the vat where it’s melted and mixed before being shipped elsewhere to be made into candy products.

Prosecutor’s spokesman Jason Laughlin says a co-worker tried to shut off the machine and two others tried to pull the man out of the 8-foot deep vat.
Cocoa Services hires a second company — Lyons and Sons — to do the mixing. (via CBS 2)

Actually that made us kind of sad, let’s just watch the Willy Wonka clip to forget about it…

Ahh… better. Anyways… Don’t forget to become a fan of “Awesomeness!” on Facebooks It will be the best strategic move you make all day!

Awww Sheeettt, It’s Awesomeness time once again here at lil’ ol’ DAPSypoo. So, what have we got for ya’ll creatons today? Lets just get to it…

One of our favorite users, Kevin Duval started our morning leaving us this fun image:

Free Candy

Thanks Kevin, your the F**king man!

Anyways, on to the links and videos… First up is this amazing new add-on to the Sears tower. Much like Willy Wonka’s glass elevator, this shit is TERRIFYING. Are you man enough to brave the heights like this little girl?

sears_tower_17

The Sears Tower rises 110 stories and 1450 feet above the Chicago skyline.  For those willing to enjoy the thrill of being 1300 feet in the air you can hop out into one of two enclosed glass boxes.  I think just looking at the pictures is enough for me. – via Fantasticus

Next up Lifehacker brings us one step closer to living out our lifelong dream of actually being Bruce Wayne. Want a study hidden behind a bookshelf? First you have to have a shit-ton of books, after that Lifehacker’s got you covered.

bookshelf

Who hasn’t dreamed of having a mystery-story-style secret passageway? While a trick bookshelf is pretty awesome in itself, this secret passage hides a home office with clever style.

Lifehacker reader agmk and his girlfriend hated the look of their cluttered home office and computer den. It seemed like even when the rest of their place was clean, their home office was always a little bit too messy. In an effort to make it easier to hide the nook that served as their home office they turned some Ikea bookshelves they scored off Craigslist into a pretty awesome office-concealing secret doorway.- Via Lifehacker. (also see the couple’s flickr here)

Now that we’re done with all that redic hard work, we need some funny. Today’s funny has been provided by user Anthony Kapfer. Anthony says that this is “A conversation no two guys ever want to have with each other….”

A common tale (at least for these DAPS bastards), speaking of horrifying insects check these fuckers out.

bug1

bug2

If you’d like to continue being disgusted by insects, or to find out WTF these two things are.. Mosy on over to ODdeE where they list the 10 Most Disturbing Insects.

Finally, being in the animal kingdom already, it’s only appropriate for this Enviornmental Graffiti post which was almost definitely inspired by the Elton John classic “The Circle of Life”

snake-bird

Oh to be carefree like this bird. Check out more images Enviornmental Graffiti call “Death is Milliseconds Away” (seriously, there’s a Great White Shark!!!!!11!!)

That’s enough Awesome for the day methinks…

Daily Awesomeness: 07/06/2009

Annnnndddd we’re back. It’s Monday and you know what that means: MOAR AWESOMENESS!!

First off today the Awesomeness parade a little bit of SLAYER!. SESAME SLAYER. wait.. what?

That really didn’t even require that much of an introduction, and neither does this. In a move that was only a matter of time, the cool ass dudes with Epic Carnival showcase the Top 40 Real Men of Genius Bud Light ads.

Not sure what the Real Men of Genius ads are? Here’s a reminder (and a personal favorite…)

Lately I have been hearing the Bud Light commercials on the radio that feature the Real Men of Genius”. I always thought thought that they were some of the funniest radio ads I had ever heard, so I thought I’d head to the Internet and see just how many there were and if there were any that I hadn’t heard yet. Turns out there’s like a million of these things. And they’re all pretty much great… but here’s the 40 I thought were the best.

To check out all of the non “foot long hot dog” genius ads, check them out on Epic Carnival here. Speaking of foot longs, ever thought about giving yourself a circumcision? I haven’t since hearing Blink-182’s cover of “Dancing With Myself”, but i certainly don’t now…

PD*29807284

Breaking the cardinal rule about keeping sharp objects away from your junk, an unnamed British man was rushed to the hospital after attempting to perform his own do-it-yourself circumcision with a pair of nail clippers.

Doctors cleansed and disinfected the wound before ordering the young man to stay in a hospital bed for observation.

“This is something we would advise men never to attempt,” a medic said. “The results can be quite horrific and long-lasting and have quite an affect on a man’s sexual performance. Using a pair of nail clippers must have caused excruciating pain, even if he had had a few drinks beforehand.” OUCH via Asylum and Telegraph.co.uk

Next up BamKapow! posted this image of a crocheted fighting game style Care Bears Vs. Teddy Ruxpin image that we don’t know what to say about. Either way check it…

carebear-carnage

Yeah, we need a drink too. I’m thinking about something strong like  a Long Island Iced Tea or a ZOMBIEEE KICKBALLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!

So the guys at Steady Burn dug up this video of people that dressed up as zombies and, with those people apparently not entirely familiar with zombie canon, decided to play a game of kickball. And apparently, none of them had seen Dawn Of The Dead, because these zombies can’t run a lick. Clearly, this outfit of zombies needs a fresh helping of BRAAAIIINS! Or at least a better script supervisor.

HOLY SHIT is right, we’d like to challenge these zombies as we can kick their dead asses. Until Next time, Hasta La Vista Awesomes!
