We love our pets like they were members of the family, yet they don’t often get a proper send off at the end of their lives. Rest in Pets are small, pet sized coffins where the beloved pets can rest for an eternity.
Cat and Mouse Automaton Clock
Parmigiani is playing the age old cat and mouse game with this clock. The cat is trying its best to get hold of the mouse, and the presumably clever mouse is running for its life. Sadly for the cat, there is no catching this mouse. The cat moves in a one hour circuit, while the mouse continuously runs away from it. Should the cat and mouse end up in the same position, the mouse leaps away to escape the clutches of the cat.
Young Girl Photographed as Famous Women of History
Photographer Jaime Moore wanted to do a creative photo shoot for the fifth birthday of her daughter Emma. She turned to the internet for inspiration, and all she could find was suggestions of photographing her as Disney Princesses. That idea didn’t go down well with Jaime and she decided to go a different, way more inspirational route of photographing Emma as some of the greatest women history has seen. Each photograph is accompanied by an inspirational quote from the woman that is portrayed.
The Pugs of Middle Earth
Pugs of Middle Earth is a photo series that, well, puts pugs in costumes that would make them fit for middle earth. We are sure they would be pretty darn good at their job, and they would simply walk into middle earth because they’re pugs, dammit. Even Sauron wouldn’t have the heart to stop them, because then the pugs would be sad and no one wants to make pugs sad. Also, I’m 12.
Skull Mask Biker Helmet is a Thoroughbred Badass
In the grand scheme of things, some items are created for the sole purpose of being badass and spreading the gospel of badassery. Case in point: This skull mask biker helmet that was seen at the Harley Davidson National Rally in China. Or that’s just the Ghost Rider who totally forgot about concealing his identity. We’re more inclined to believe the latter theory.

Animal Style Kamasutra
Human sex positions are quite influenced by animals (doggy style) and probably religious leaders (missionary style), though all that scientific discussion is beyond the scope of this article. This set of gif images talks what would human intercourse be like, if it went the way of animals too literally. We are going to assume the turtle style might still be in practice, though rarely admitted to. Though there is no nudity, we’ve still placed all images after the jump for the off-chance someone might find this objectionable.
That’s a Plane Engine Powering This Motorcycle
Eat your heart out, choppers that are not this one. Frank Ohle built this one around a 150hp Rotec Radial R3600 engine, you know, an engine built for planes. Having a plane engine between your legs is the second biggest indicator of masculinity, the first being chest hair. It took Ohle 18 months to complete the project that involved a custom chassis, painting, suspension and electronics.
Ice Cream Rose
Ah roses, the symbol of friendship and love, together with ice cream, the true symbol of everything good. This is like the best combo ever made.
