Civil War Era Cthulu

You know it ain't no thang for this gal right here.

Back to Back to the Future the Future

A comparative breakdown of the end of the first and start of the second Back to the Future movies. Claudia Wells, who played Jennifer Parker in the first movie, wasn't so keen on heading "back" to anything; so Elizabeth Shue took up the torch and, for continuity's sake, they re-filmed the entire sequence. Pretty {Pretty} cool! {cool!}

Awesome Tiniest Christmas Greeting

What may well be the world's smallest Christmas greeting has been fabricated by the University of Glasgow's nanotech lab. The Christmas tree has been etched into a piece of glass too small to see with the naked eye. David Cumming, a prof at the U of G, states "The card is 200 micro-meters wide by 290 micro-meters tall. To put that into some sort of perspective, a micro-meter is a millionth of a meter." As you can see from the image here, a pin head nearly dwarfs this belated holiday hello.

Awesome Ghostbuster

Awesome Epic Meal Time


Drizzling will be profoundly hilarious to me now.

This Needs To Be Real


Wyatt's Weird Thing of the Week Is...!

Jay Herrod from Clinton, Louisiana!

Congrats Jay! Your videos - largely bereft of anything but mopey button-up shirts and frumpy monologues - have educated, entertained, and bewildered me to no end. And they'll need to. After all, you could be president in 2012 - your listless comfort in front of a camera and puddle-deep sage advice will be needed if we hope to succeed as a country. Check out Jay Herrod's wilting gaze and continued campaign efforts over at his youtube page.

Awesome Beer Cannon Invention

Awesome home improvement from YouTuber personalbeerrobot. If the name doesn't tell you everything already, the man has invented a coordinated menu and pressurized air system all operable from his iPhone. He is now one click away from some shaken, cheap beer. All I can say is, do want.

Awesome Gameplay Video


Guy loses his shit while playing the game Amnesia: The Dark Descent.

Awesome New TV Series Falling Skies



Heres the first-look trailer for the Steven Spielberg produced Falling Skies. It stars Noah Wyle from ER fame and so far it looks pretty cool. Premiers on TNT this coming June.

Fuck This Thing


Hey all. Ben here. Just wanted to give a heads up to all of our 2 readers (Wyatt and I) that I'm going to have a continuing segment called "Fuck This Thing" on DA. Basically I'll be introducing cringe worthy insects, animals and sea creatures that will boggle the mind and tattalize the senses. But mostly they'll just creep you the fuck out. 

First on our list is the deadly motherfuggin Dragon Millipede from South East Asia. Not only is this thing horrednous to look at but it also produces and shoots fresh hot cyanide into unsuspecting eyes. Good job creating this one universe. I mean seriously. Fuck this thing!

Have A Very Merry Bat Christmas

Awesome New Trailer For Hanna


This looks interesting. It could be either really cool or really horrible. The teaser looks bloody great so far.

More like "Dolls to Destroy & Burn".

This should be in every public building.

Awesome Stop-motion Animation


Great stop-motion animation from the mind of Kevin Parry entitled "The Arctic Circle".

Awesome New Lonely Island Video


I'm sure most people have seen this by now but I just had to post it.

Wyatt's Weird Thing of the Week Is...! NSFW


Congrats Majela! By this point, Father Christmas is probably tuckered out on the whole milk and cookies left by sweet children thing... your offering of non-stop Christmas p**sy instead absolutely made my day. I appreciate your odd, nearly motionless dance, your spooky blond wig, and your worldwide reminder that - should Santa show up - "This is Christmas" after all, and "We gonna have lots of sex." If you've been inspired to learn the song or experience other Majela originals, (and she does have others!!) check out Majela's YouTube page.

Rest In Peace, Captain Beefheart

Dom Van Vliet, more widely known by his performance title, Captain Beefheart, died early Friday in northern California after a long battle with Multiple Sclerosis. He was 69 years old. Dom Van Vliet is a name easily listed in the hall of immortal avant-garde musicians; and Beefheart's 1969 LP, "Trout Mask Replica," is worth many, many listens for anyone out there looking for some eccentric, jazzy, and impressively challenging music. Read the full article on this unfortunate passing here, and explore some of Beefheart's tunes here.

Awesome Star Wars Posters

Artist Olly Moss has created three excellent posters for the original Star Wars trilogy. If you like what you're seeing here be sure to take a peek at the others. Browse or buy these unique prints over at mondotees.

Kim Jong-Il Looking At Things Becomes Webpage

In one of the most enjoyably eccentric pages I've recently come across, Kim Jong-Il Looking At Things is exactly what it says it is. If you can build it, use it, or otherwise feature it in some way... you know Jong-Il's gonna be looking at it.

Awesome Hooligan Child

Just look at 'im! Barely strong enough to form the 4/5 fist required for a properly flipped bird; clearly getting into trouble on the regular as evidenced by the fresh wounds above his eye; and doin' all of it for the 'nut butter. That the shirt he's wearing even comes in a size small enough to fit a person of his age (guessing between 6 and 9) cracks me up.

Hilarious Herzog Christmas Story

Ryan Iverson - d'ah, I mean Werner Herzog, regales us with yet another bedtime story. If you're unfamiliar with Ryan Iverson, his hilarious impersonations of our favorite eccentric director are spot on. Enjoy this retelling of a childhood favorite and get in the mood for Christmas! Find more, similarly quirky and sidesplitting Herzog reads on Ryan's YouTube channel.

Computer And Scooter Forced to Have Child in Man's Basement

I know, I'm excited too. Portland, Oregon geek/apparent scooter design pro Stephen Popa has fabricated the first "Scooterputer," half computer, half scooter, all awesome. Read in depth and see some nifty pics of the beast over at Oddity Central. [Thanks, Sjoerd!]

Typographer Matteo Civaschi has a woefully brief (talkin 3 pieces, here), but no less awesome, series of readily recognized typographic Star Wars faces for your enjoyment. Check 'em out!

Awesomely Weird Internal Anatomy

Artist Shigeru Mizuki treats the world to a collection of illustrations detailing the internal workings of traditional Japanese folk creatures/entities/whathaveyous. Not that you'll want to know, but if you ever have the displeasure of being attacked by a Kuro-kamikiri aka "black hair cutter," finger-like protrusions will aid the beast's digestion by thumping on it's gut. "Learn" more about this charming fellow and his friends over at Pink Tentacle.

Awesome Depression Era America Color Photographs

A gallery of phenomenal color photographs, detailing micro-portraits of life in Depression Era America from 1939-1943, are being hosted over at the Denver Post. Do yourself a favor and take a peek. This is a unique glimpse of American history, laid bare, in color.

Awesome Louis Armstrong Metal Cover

With all due respect to Louis Armstrong, there ain't nothin wrong with a death metal cover now and then. [Thanks, Ben!]

Awesome WTF, I Hope These Catch On {Slightly NSFW}

Ever wonder where SEGA went off to, or how so many strangers manage to urinate not only on, but around the urinal? Turns out SEGA's been coming up with the answer: folks simply haven't had a urination-based video game to play. Called Toirettsu (a wordplay on "toy" and "let's" in Japanese), this urinal is equipped with interactive games to entice a gentleman's focus on his business. Now, as much as you may want to go pound 5 glasses of water and sprint to your nearest Bestbuy, SEGA hasn't officially "broken the seal" on this contraption just yet.

Sweden Just Likes to Have Fun

Don't try this at home... unless you're a highly trained pilot living in Sweden, a country that - despite it's air force - has managed to avoid war since 1812 (no really, that ain't no joke).

Awesomely Awkward Family Photos

'Tis the season to celebrate, give thanks, and come together. What better way to get into the mood, than with a journey through painfully clunky, sometimes downright confusing, family portraits... that somehow aren't yours. Go on, get drunk on that awkwardness!

Awesome Coin Animation


DreamHack Kreativ make an amazing animation using nothing but coins. Enjoy.

At Long Last, Wolveraptor

"Does it hurt?"
"Screeee!"
"Every time, huh? Damn..."

Awesome Junk Art

Where there's a will and thousands of bits of junk, there most definitely is a way. Since 1999, Zac Freeman has been using junk to create massive, amazingly detailed portraits of men and women. See more of Freeman's work, and find links to his homepage, here.

Milocinek, The 31ft Tall Snowman

With Winter just around the corner here, what better time than now to discover this little (giant) Polish gem. Currently the world's largest snowman, Milocinek towers over his hometown of Trzebnica after only 6 days of fabrication. For once, I'm intensely glad this snowman won't be coming magically to life. Read more here.

YouTuber Andrestai40!


Congrats Andres! Your Sailor Moon intros and shorts, your odd trailers and music videos, have entertained and astounded my brain clean out of its skull. I've laughed, I've cried, I've contemplated whether the women you've filmed are being made to enact these scenes at gunpoint. And for this, I thank and celebrate you!

Pay the man a visit, {Andrestai40}

Not So Awesome Hostage Situation


The Panama City, Florida School Board was held hostage yesterday by a man by the name of Clay Duke. He hailed himself and "freedom fighter" and then proceeded to take a shot at each member of the board. Amazingly no one on the board was hurt. Luckily there happened to be a retired police officer on the premises and he was able to wound Mr. Clay through an exchange of gunfire. Mr. Clay then shot himself shortly there after. More details here.
