Be a Good Guy… And Regift This Fruitcake

regift_the_fruitcake_hr_med

If you want to do something charitable this holiday season but don’t know where to start, don’t have much to spare yourself - or just don’t want to get off your fat, lazy ass (hey, that’s OK by us), all you have to do is add this “Regift the Fruitcake” Facebook application.

Built as a “viral charity campaign” by PayPal, “Regift the Fruitcake” has teamed-up with six celebrities - Pete Wentz, Nicole Richie, Joel  Madden, Tony Hawk, Jimmie Johnson  and Ben Roethlisberger - to regift digital “fruitcakes” through the Facebook application. Those lucky enough to receive one of the celebrity fruitcakes can then donate to that celebrity’s charity of choice and have a chance at a $100,000 grand prize ($50,000 to you, $50,000 to a participating PayPal charity).

PayPal has already donated $20,000 to each of the six celebrity’s charities to get the ball rolling. All you have to do is click a freakin’ button…

The 1930’s Were Awesome

more about “The 1930’s Were Awesome“, posted with vodpod

The sport of Parkour (jumping off buildings, climbing up buildings, flipping around the the g*ddamned Matrix) might seems like some type of future ninjitsu. But it turns out crazy sons-of-bitches have been doing exactly the same stuff since at least the 1930’s. My guess is that it comes from sometime long before that. But no matter when or where…it’s still freakin’ rad.

If you’re as big a fan of Adult Swim’s Tim & Eric’s Awesome Show Great Job! as us, then today’s your lucky day. Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim are hitting the road on a 20-city tour, starting in Seattle. While it’s not their first tour, they are hitting higher profile venues.

Want to buy more crap? Well, tomorrow Amazon will be releasing its iPhone app, which will allow users to take a picture of anything and then get an Amazon page to buy that thing. So how the hell does this work? Magic? Amazing technology? Nope - Amazon has a team of people actually matching up every photo to products on Amazon.com. They recieve the photo you send to them and then get back to you with an answer in anywhere from five minutes to 24 hours. OK, so it’s not perfect, but it technically does what it says it’s going to do. And it allows you to do your Christmas shopping without really having to think about it. Sweet! Read more here.

If you’re anything like me, packing for a trip usually involves rushing home 15 minutes before you’re supposed to leave for the airport and cramming whatever’s in grabbing distance into whatever container you have (i.e. a garbage bag) that they’ll let on an airplane. But with airlines charging for every piece of luggage these days, it’s become financially irresponsible to not know how to properly pack.

From checking the weather to tricky folding techniques, these tips will get you there and back without all the hassle (or spending the extra cash.)

The best part about a plane crashing on a baseball field during a game isn’t just the crash. It’s someone having a microphone to announce the whole thing while it happens.

Ninja Soccer

I’ve heard of pro soccer players and I’ve heard of ninjas, but never have I seen a gang of ninjas playing soccer. Sure, they might not have on their sweet ninja suits, but they’ve still got all their skills. However, I’m not sure how being able to kick a ball while doing a back flip off a building is going to help you win any games.

Obama Zombies

Now that Barack Obama has been elected, his supporters are quickly realizing that there is nothing else meaningful to the rest of their life. So instead of “Yes we can,” it’s “Yes, I suck.” The Onion has the full report.
