I took an online spelling test. I thought I would have scored better. I blame my nursery school teachers – they should have been guiding me in the right direction instead of letting me drink in class and sell drugs around the corner.
Let us know how you fared, or faired, or however you spell it.
A Serbian game show host faints during a broadcast. Note how her female co-host does nothing. That’s some heartless shit right there.

Eric Testroete works as an artist in the Vancouver game industry and on his trip to Japan he took over 3000 photos totally about 46 GB! He then created a video using 2760 of those photos.
This is Japan runs at 6 frames per second and is about 8 minutes long. See it below.

I can safely say the only reason I don’t use torture devices today is because I’m not the all-conquering, merciless king I was in my past life. But if I were to get my lofty stature back, I’d stock my playroom with the most horrifying torture devices, you know, for parties or for storing the occasional uninvited guest.
Heretic’s Fork
One end of this forked device was pushed under the chin of the victim, the other into the sternum; the strap secured the torture tool to the neck. In somewhat of a pained state, the victim would have to say the Latin word “Abiuro” (I recant), lest they were hanged or burned at the stake.
Thumbscrew
This vice was used to crush fingers, toes, knees, and elbows. Simple and efficient – two words that should always be in a torturer’s vocabulary.
Lead Sprinkler
We have ways of making you talk. This device was filled with either molten lead, tar, boiling oil, or boiling water. The said contents were then dripped onto the stomach, back, and other body parts of the unfortunate victim.

Honestly I think the Devil got a bum deal here. His left hand is obviously the better choice. I’m left-handed too. Coincidence, I think not.

I’m a city boy. Taking me into the bush is as useful as a pork chop at a Bar Mitzvah. Every time I think I see a buck, it turns out to be a dead tree branch. Süha Derbent, however, can easily distinguish animals from trees, and has visited many countries, taking amazing wildlife photos as he goes.

In case you may have missed it, here’s the trailer for the highly-anticipated “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” due for release on June 26, 2009. It will feature some humans who become caught in a war between fighting robots. The plot is secondary as the lure of Megan Fox is will firmly put bums on seats and stiffies in pants.
