Wow These Beautiful Animation Videos Are Ads for... McDonald's
Jun 26, 3:41AM
You usually know an advertisement for McDonald's when you see it.

These ads are not like that. They're abstract animations that show McDonald's in a completely different way.

What If the Superheroes from The Avengers Existed in Real Life?
Jun 26, 1:31AM
Because we don't have any real life superheroes in this totally lame world of ours, we obsess over the lives of silly celebrities with beautiful cheekbones and photoshopped curves and cry over athletes wearing fresh laundry. It's what we call fun! But if superheroes existed on Earth, all those puny humans would never make the cover of magazines ever again. We'd obsess over superheroes all the time.

For the beginning (or even experienced) cyclist, making your own bike repairs can seem like a daunting task.

Adorable Daughter Bills Dad for Home Tech Support
Jun 25, 9:03PM
Oh, your parents: Teh Olds. They're always needing technical assistance with the most rudimentary computer tasks. Worse, you can't begrudge them the tech support since they're always helping you out with rides to the movie theater and money for ice cream. You can't deny them service, but goshdarnit, you should demand remuneration for your travails. And if you do it as adorably as this young tech entrepreneur, we're willing to bet you're going to get what you asked for.

Why You Can't Get Stoned from Smoking Hemp
Jun 25, 8:20PM
It's an honest mistake, thinking that marijuana and industrial hemp are one and the same. And in some ways they are: both are species of the genus cannabis, they both have the iconic five-fingered pot leafs, and both are widely sought after the world over. But aside from their outward appearance, they two have very little in common, including where it counts the most.
Sorry Uber, Los Angeles Has Been Banning Ride-Shares For a Century
Jun 25, 7:52PM
This week the city of Los Angeles sent a cease-and-desist letter to ride-sharing app companies Uber, Lyft and Sidecar. The city and Los Angeles Yellow Cab claim that these services are "rogue taxis" that are "bypassing all safety regulations created to protect riders and drivers." But this isn't the first time that this town has gone after the unregulated four-wheeled menace. This crackdown on unlicensed taxis in the City of Angels is nearly identical to a battle that raged a century ago — without all the iPhones and whatnot, of course.

But two architecture students are hoping to change that soon, with a proposal to build a school for autistic children on the island.

Enjoy These Rare Video Art Masterpieces Thanks to YouTube
Jun 25, 6:30PM
The rarefied history of video art is foreign to all but a niche group of academics and art-world types.
